A race car starts from rest and travels east along a straight and level track. For the first 5.0 s of the car’s motion, the east
ward component of the car’s velocity is given by vx(t)=(0.860m/s3)t2. What is the acceleration of the car when vx=12.0m/s?
1 answer:
Answer:
ax = 6.43m/s²
Explanation:
The acceleration is the time derivative of the velocity function ax = dvx(t)/dt
We have been given the velocity function v(t) and also the velocity v = 12.0m/s and we are requested to calculate the acceleration at this time which we don't know.
So the first step is to calculate the time at which the velocity =12.0m/s and with this time calculate the acceleration. Detailed solution can be found in the attachment below.

The speed at which a wave of frequency of 14 Hz and a wavelength of 3 m will travel is 42 m / s
v = λ / T
f = 1 / T
v = f λ
v = Wave speed
λ = Wavelength
T = Time period
f = Frequency
f = 14 Hz
λ = 3 m
v = 14 * 3
v = 42 m / s
Frequency is the number of time an event occurs repeatedly in an unit amount of time. Its unit is hertz which in terms of SI unit is .
Therefore, the speed at which the wave will travel is 42 m / s
