A certain car is capable of accelerating at a uniform rate of 0.85 m/s^2. What is the magnitude of the car's displacement as it
gogolik [260]

Solution: 85.11 m

Given:

acceleration of the car, a= 0.85 m/s^{2}

initial velocity,u=83km/h=23.05 m/s

final velocity, v=94 km/h=26.11 m/s

we need to find the displacement (s) of the car.

we would use the equation of motion:

2as=v^{2}-u^{2}\\
\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^{2}-u^{2}}{2a} \\
\Rightarrow s=\frac{26.11^{2}-23.05^{2}}{2\times0.85}\\
\Rightarrow s=85.11 m

hence, the displacement done by the car is = 85.11 m

If an object accelerates from rest, with a constant acceleration of 4.4 m/s2, what will its velocity be after 28s?
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

123.2 m/s after 28s

Explanation:

Vi= 0 m/s

a= 4.4 m/s^2

t=28s

Vf after 28s

To find Vf use your kinematics formula Vf=Vi+at

Vi is Zero so it gets removed and the equation becomes

Vf=at  

Simply Plug and Solve

Vf= 4.4(28)

Vf=123.2 m/s after 28s

How does a concave mirror form an image
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The correct option is (c) "it bounces the light towards a focal point"

Explanation:

There are two types of spherical mirrors i.e. concave and convex.

A concave mirror is a type of spherical mirror that is curved inwards. For this type of mirror the rays of light are bounced back and converge to the focal point of the mirror.

So, the correct option is (c).

A thief is trying to escape from a parking garage after completing a robbery, and the thief's car is speeding (v = 13 m/s) towar
rodikova [14]

<u>Answer</u>

Yes, the car reaches the door before the gate closes.

<u>Explanation</u>

The time taken by the car to reach at the door.

Time = distance / time

        = 22/13

          = 1.6923 seconds

Time taken by the door to close up to the height of the car.

Distance the door has to move to prevent the car from escaping = 9.1.4 = 7.6 m

From newton's 2nd law of motion;

s = ut + 1/2 gt²

7.6 = 0.6t + 1/2 × 10t²

7.6 = 0.6t + 5t²

50t² + 6t - 76 = 0

Solving this quadrilatic equation,

t = 28.537 seconds

Answer: Yes, the car reaches the door before the gate closes.

An electric ceiling fan is rotating about a fixed axis with an initial angular velocity magnitude of 0.220 rev/s . The magnitude
matrenka [14]

Answer:

1) The fan's angular velocity after 0.208 seconds is approximately 2.585 rad/s

2) The number of revolutions the blade has travelled in 0.208 s is approximately 0.066 revolutions

3) The tangential speed of a point on the tip of the blade at time t = 0.208 s is approximately 1.034 m/s

4) The magnitude of the tangential acceleration of a point on the tip of the blade at time t = 0.208 seconds is approximately 2.312 m/s²

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The initial velocity of the fan, n = 0.220 rev/s

The magnitude of the angular acceleration = 0.920 rev/s²

The direction of the angular acceleration and the angular velocity = Clockwise

The diameter of the circle formed by the electric ceiling fan blades, D = 0.800 m

1) The initial angular velocity of the fan, ω₀ = 2·π × n = 2·π × 0.220 rev/s = 1.38230076758 rad/s

The angular acceleration of the fan, α = 2·π×0.920 rad/s² = 5.78053048261 rad/s²

The fan's angular velocity, 'ω', after a time t = 0.208 seconds has passed is given as follows;

ω = ω₀ + α·t

From which we have;

ω = 1.38230076758 rad/s + 5.78053048261 rad/s × 0.208 s = 2.58465110796 rad/s

The fan's angular velocity after 0.208 seconds is ω ≈ 2.585 rad/s

2) The number of revolutions the blade has travelled in the given time interval is given from the angle turned, 'θ', in the given time as follows;

θ = ω₀·t + 1/2·α·t²

θ = 1.38230076758 × 0.208 + 1/2 × 5.78053048261 × 0.208² = 0.41256299505 radians

2·π radians = 1 revolution

∴ 0.41256299505 radians = 0.41256299505 radian× 1 revolution/(2·π radian) = 0.06566144 revolution

The number of revolutions the blade has travelled in 0.208 s ≈ 0.066 revolutions

3) The tangential speed of a point on the tip of the blade at time t = 0.208 s is given as follows;

The tangential speed, v_t = ω × r = ω × D/2

At t = 0.208 s, ω = 2.58465110796 rad/s, therefore, we have;

v_t = ω × D/2 = 2.58465110796 × 0.800/2 = 1.0338604413

The tangential speed, v_t = 1.0338604413 m/s

The tangential speed ≈ 1.034 m/s

4)  The magnitude of the tangential acceleration of a point on the tip of the blade at time t = 0.208 seconds, 'a' is given as follows;

a = α × r = α × D/2

a = 5.78053048261 × 0.800/2 = 2.31221219304

The tangential acceleration, a ≈ 2.312 m/s²
