Starting from the front door of your ranch house, you walk 50.0 m due east to your windmill, and then you turn around and slowly

walk 40.0 m west to a bench where you sit and watch the sunrise. It takes you 28.0 s to walk from your house to the windmill and then 42.0 s to walk from the windmill to the bench.
(a) For the entire trip from your front door to the bench, what is your average velocity?
(b) For the entire trip from your front door to the bench, what is your average speed?

Answer:

Average velocity

v=\frac{d}{t}\\ v=\frac{10m}{70s}\\v=.1428 \frac{m}{s}

Average speed,

S=\frac{D}{t}\\ S=\frac{90}{70}\\ S=1.29\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

(a)Average velocity

We have to find the average velocity. We know that velocity is defined as the rate of change of displacement with respect to time.

To find the average velocity we have to find the total displacement.

since displacement along east direction is 50m

and displacement along west=40m

so total displacement,

d=50m-40m\\d=10m

total time,

t=28 s+42 s\\t=70 s

therefore, average velocity

v=\frac{d}{t}\\ v=\frac{10m}{70s}\\v=.1428 \frac{m}{s}

(b)Average Speed:

Average speed is defined as the ratio of total distance to the total time

it means

Average speed= total distance/total time

here total distance,

D= 50m+40m\\D=90m

and total time,

t= 28s+40s\\t=70s

therefore,

Average speed,

S=\frac{D}{t}\\ S=\frac{90}{70}\\ S=1.29\frac{m}{s}

A stone with a mass of 0.100kg rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A bullet of mass 2.50g traveling horizontally at 500
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of stone (M) = 0.100 kg

mass of bullet (m) = 2.50 g = 2.5  ×10 ⁻³ kg

initial velocity of stone (u_{stone}) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity of bullet (u_{bullet}) = (500 m/s)i

Speed of the bullet after collision (v_{bullet}) = (300 m/s) j

Suppose we represent (v_{stone}) to be the velocity of the stone after the truck, then:

From linear momentum, the law of conservation can be applied which is expressed as:

m*u_{bullet} + M*{u_{stone}}= mv_{bullet}+Mv_{stone}

(2.50*10^{-3} \ kg) (500)i+0 = (2.50*10^{-3} \ kg)(300 \ m/s)j + (0.100 \ kg)v_{stone}

(2.50*10^{-3} \ kg) (500)i- (2.50*10^{-3} \ kg)(300 \ m/s)j=  (0.100 \ kg)v_{stone}

v_{stone}= (1.25\  kg.m/s)i-(0.75\ kg m/s)j

v_{stone}= (12.5\  m/s)i-(7.5\ m/s)j

∴

The magnitude now is:

v_{stone}=\sqrt{ (12.5\  m/s)^2-(7.5\ m/s)^2}

\mathbf{v_{stone}= 14.6 \ m/s}

Using the tangent of an angle to determine the direction of the velocity after the struck;

Let θ represent the direction:

\theta = tan^{-1} (\dfrac{-7.5}{12.5})

\mathbf{\theta = 30.96^0 \ below \ the \ horizontal\ level}

Air bags are designed to deploy in 10 ms. Given that the air bags expand 20 cm as they deploy, estimate the acceleration of the
joja [24]

As it is given that the air bag deploy in time

t = 10 ms = 0.010 s

total distance moved by the front face of the bag

d = 20 cm = 0.20 m

Now we will use kinematics to find the acceleration

d = v_i*t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

0.20 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}a*0.010^2

0.20 = 5 * 10^{-5}* a

a = 4000 m/s^2

now as we know that

g = 10 m/s^2

so we have

a = 400g

so the acceleration is 400g for the front surface of balloon
