A student is running to catch the campus shuttle bus, which is stopped at the bus stop. The student is runnign at a constant spe

ed of 6.0 m/s; she cant run any faster. When trhe student is still 60 m from the bus, it starts to pull away, moving with a constant acceleration of 0.170m/s2. (a) For how much time and what distance does the student have to run at 5.0 m/s before she overtakes the bus? (b) When she reaches the bus, how fast is the bus traveling?

Answer:

Part a)

t = 16.8 s

d = 100.8 m

Part b)

v_f = 2.86 m/s

Explanation:

Part a)

Constant speed by which the student will run is given as

v = 5 m/s

now after some time if student is going to overtake the position of bus

so here the final positions will be same

so we have

x_{bus} = x_{student}

0 + \frac{1}{2}at^2 + d = v_{student} t

\frac{1}{2}(0.170)t^2 + 60 = 5 t

0.085 t^2 - 5t + 60 = 0

so it is

t = 16.8 s

So student will run the total distance

d = vt

d = (6)(16.8)

d = 100.8 m

Part b)

Speed of bus when student reach the bus is given as

v_f = v_i + at

v_f = 0 + (0.170)(16.8)

v_f = 2.86 m/s

An automobile starter motor has an equivalent resistance of 0.0510 Ω and is supplied by a 12.0 V battery with a 0.0090 Ω interna
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

a) 200A

b) 10.2V

c) 2.04kW

d)

I=80A

V=4.08V

P=0.326kW

Explanation:

Here we have a circuit of one power source and two resistors in series, the first question is asking for the current, so according to Ohm's Law:

I=\frac{V}{R}

Where R is the equivalent resistance of the resistors in series

R=0.0510+0.0090=0.0600[ohm]

I=\frac{12.0}{0.0600}=200A

To calculate the voltage dropped by the motor we have to apply the voltage divider rule:

V_m=V*\frac{R_m}{R_m+R_s}\\V_m=12.0*\frac{0.0510}{0.0600}\\V_m=10.2V

The power dissipated supplied to the motor is given by:

P=I^2*R_m\\P=(200)^2*0.0510=2.04kW

now solving adding a 0.0900 ohm resistor:

I=\frac{12.0}{0.15}=80A

V_m=12.0*\frac{0.0510}{0.15}\\V_m=4.08V

P=I^2*R_m\\P=(200)^2*0.0510=0.326kW
