The velocity of an object is the distance it travels per unit time. Suppose the velocity of a gilding bird is measured to be 52.

Elanso [62]

Answer:

$d=7.115s$

Explanation:

What problem says can be written mathematically as:

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

Where:

$v=Velocity\\t=Time\\d=Distance$

The problem itself it's really simple, we only need to replace the data provided in the previous equation, but first, let's convert the units of the velocity from cm/s to m/s because we have to work with the same units and working in meters is the most apropiate action, because is the base unit of length in the International System of Units:

$52\frac{cm}{s} *\frac{1m}{100cm} =0.52\frac{m}{s}$

Now, we can replace the data in the equation and find the time it will take the bird to travel 3.7 m:

$0.52=\frac{3.7}{t}$

Solving for t, multiplying by t both sides, and dividing by 0.52 both sides:

$t=\frac{3.7}{0.52} =7.115384615s\approx7.115s$

You throw a glob of putty straight up toward the ceiling, which is 3.60 m above the point where the putty leaves your hand. The

Sliva [168]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Height of ceiling is $h=3.6\ m$

Initial speed of Putty $u=9.5\ m/s$

Speed of Putty just before it strike the ceiling is given by

$v^2-u^2=2as$

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

$v^2-9.5^2=2\times (-9.8)\times 3.6$

$v^2=19.69$

$v=4.43\ m/s$

time taken by putty to reach the ceiling

$v=u+at$

$4.43=9.5-9.8\times t$

$t=\frac{5.07}{9.8}$

$t=0.517\ s$

The height of a projectile t seconds after it is launched straight up in the air is given by f (t )equals negative 16 t squared

velikii [3]

Answer:

$\displaystyle a(5)=-32$

Explanation:

<u>Instant Acceleration</u>

The kinetic magnitudes are usually related as scalar or vector equations. By doing so, we are assuming the acceleration is constant over time. But when the acceleration is variable, the relations are in the form of calculus equations, specifically using derivatives and/or integrals.

Let f(t) be the distance traveled by an object as a function of the time t. The instant speed v(t) is defined as:

$\displaystyle v(t)=\frac{df}{dt}$

And the acceleration is

$\displaystyle a(t)=\frac{dv}{dt}$

Or equivalently

$\displaystyle a(t)=\frac{d^2f}{d^2t}$

The given height of a projectile is

$f(t)=-16t^2 +238t+3$

Let's compute the speed

$\displaystyle v(t)=-32t+238$

And the acceleration

$\displaystyle a(t)=-32$

It's a constant value regardless of the time t, thus

$\boxed{\displaystyle a(5)=-32}$

2. A 2000 kg car with speed 12.0 m/s hits a tree. The tree does not move or

krek1111 [17]

a) The work done by the tree is $-1.44\cdot 10^5 J$

b) The amount of force applied is 2880 N

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done on the car is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the car. Therefore, we can write:

$W=K_f - K_i = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - \frac{1}{2}mu^2$

where

W is the work done on the car

m is the mass of the car

u is its initial speed

v is its final speed

For the car in this problem, we have:

m = 2000 kg

u = 12.0 m/s

v = 0 (since the car comes to a stop, after the crash)

Therefore, the work done by the tree on the car is:

$W=0-\frac{1}{2}(2000)(12.0)^2=-1.44\cdot 10^5 J$

The work is negative because it is done in the direction opposite to the direction of motion of the car.

The work done by the tree on the car can also be rewritten as

$W=Fd$

where

F is the force applied on the car

d is the displacement of the car during the collision

In this situation, we have:

$W=-1.44\cdot 10^5 J$ is the work done

$d=50.0 cm = 0.50 m$ is the displacement of the car during the collision

Solving the equation for F, we find the force exerted by the tree on the car:

$F=\frac{W}{d}=\frac{-1.44\cdot 10^5 J}{0.50}=-2880 N$

Where the negative sign means the force is applied opposite to the direction of motion of the car. Therefore, the magnitude of the force applied is 2880 N.
