Answer:
A. The time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs
B. The initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s
Explanation:
Data obtained from the question include:
Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2
Distance (s) = 256ft
Final velocity (V) = 0
Time (t) =?
Initial velocity (U) =?
A. Determination of the time taken for the car to stop.
Let us obtain an express for time (t)
Acceleration (a) = Velocity (V)/time(t)
a = V/t
Velocity (V) = distance (s) /time (t)
V = s/t
a = s/t^2
Cross multiply
a x t^2 = s
Divide both side by a
t^2 = s/a
Take the square root of both side
t = √(s/a)
Now we can obtain the time as follow
Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2
Distance (s) = 256ft
Time (t) =..?
t = √(s/a)
t = √(256/26)
t = 3.14 secs
Therefore, the time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs
B. Determination of the initial speed of the car.
V = U + at
Final velocity (V) = 0
Deceleration (a) = –26ft/s2
Time (t) = 3.14 sec
Initial velocity (U) =.?
0 = U – 26x3.14
0 = U – 81.64
Collect like terms
U = 81.64 ft/s
Therefore, the initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s
Answer: 5.5m/s
Explanation:
vf=vi+at
vf= 4.0m/s + (0.50m/s^2)(3.0s)
Answer:
The time elapses until the boat is first at the trough of a wave is 4.46 seconds.
Explanation:
Speed of the wave, v = 59 km/h = 16.38 m/s
Wavelength of the wave, 
If f is the frequency of the wave. The frequency of a wave is given by :

The time period of the wave is given by :

We need to find the time elapses until the boat is first at the trough of a wave. So, the time will be half of the time period of the wave.

Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
W = 1.06 MJ
Explanation:
- We will use differential calculus to solve this problem.
- Make a differential volume of water in the tank with thickness dx. We see as we traverse up or down the differential volume of water the side length is always constant, hence, its always 8.
- As for the width of the part w we see that it varies as we move up and down the differential element. We will draw a rectangle whose base axis is x and vertical axis is y. we will find the equation of the slant line that comes out to be y = 0.5*x. And the width spans towards both of the sides its going to be 2*y = x.
- Now develop and expression of Force required:
F = p*V*g
F = 1000*(2*0.5*x*8*dx)*g
F = 78480*x*dx
- Now, the work done is given by:
W = F.s
- Where, s is the distance from top of hose to the differential volume:
s = (5 - x)
- We have the work as follows:
dW = 78400*x*(5-x)dx
- Now integrate the following express from 0 to 3 till the tank is empty:
W = 78400*(2.5*x^2 - (1/3)*x^3)
W = 78400*(2.5*3^2 - (1/3)*3^3)
W = 78400*13.5 = 1058400 J
