n problem. a sprinter accelerates from rest to 10.5 m/s in 1.35 sec. what is her acceleration . . . in m/s2 km/hr2 a certain drag racer can accelerate from 0 to 60.0 km/hr in 5.4 sec. what is its acceleration in m/s2? how far, in meters, will it travel during this acceleration? how much time would it take to go 0.25 km if it could accelerate at this rate the entire time? an automobile can increase its speed uniformly from 25.0 to 55.0 km/h in 30.0 seconds. a bicycle rider uniformly speeds up to 30.0 km/h from rest in 0.5 min. calculate their accelerations. a rocket rises from rest with constant acceleration to an altitude of 85.0 km, at this point it has a speed of 2.8 km/s what is the acceleration of the rocket? how long does the ascent take?

The useful equations here are derived equations for rectilinear motion at constant acceleration:

a = (v - v₀)/t
2ax = v² - v₀²
x = v₀t + 0.5at²

1.  Since it starts from rest, v₀ = 0. Then, v = <span>10.5 m/s and t=1.35 s
     a = (10.5 - 0)/1.35 = 7.78 m/s</span>²
     a = 7.78 m/s²*(1 km/1000 m)*(3,600 s/ 1 h)² = 100,828.8 km/h²

2. v₀ = 0; v = 60 km/h; t=5.4 s 
    a = [60 km/h*(1000 m/1km)*(1 h/3600 s) - 0]/5.4 s = 3.09 m/s²

3. Using the acceleration and velocities in #2, we can determine the distance     by the formula: 2ax = v² - v₀²
    2(3.09 m/s²)x = [60 km/h*(1000 m/1km)*(1 h/3600 s)]² - (0 m/s)²
    Solving for x,
    x = 44.95 m

4. Using acceleration in #2 and v₀ = 0, the time would be
    x = v₀t + 0.5at²
    0.25 km * 1,000 m/1 km = (0)(t) + (0.5)(3.09 m/s²)(t²)
    Solving for t,
    t = 12.72 seconds

5. Acceleration of automobile:
   a = [(55 km/h - 25 km/h)*(1,000 m/1 km)*(1 h/3,600 s)]/30 s
   a = 0.278 m/s²
<span>
   </span>Acceleration of bicycle:
   a = [(30 km/h - 0 km/h)*(1,000 m/1 km)*(1 h/3,600 s)]/(0.5 min * 60 s/1 min)
   a = 0.278 m/s²
<span>
6. x = 85 km or 85,000 m; v</span>₀ = 0 m/s; v = 2,800 m/s
    2ax = v² - v₀²
    2a(85,000 m) = (2,800 m/s)² - 0²
    a = 46.12 m/s²

7. Using the data given and acceleration in #6,
   x = v₀t + 0.5at²
   85,000 m = 0*t + 0.5(46.12 m/s²)(t²)
   Solving for t,
   t = 60.71 seconds

Potential energy is energy that is found in a system, grounded on the position of objects. The Coulomb (C) is the unit of charge, and the unit of electric potential is the Volt (V), which is equivalent to (J/C) or Joule per Coulomb.So the formula for this is potential = kQ / d, plugging in the given from the questions will give us:potential = 8.99e9N·m²/C² * 1.602e-19C / 0.053e-9m = 27 V

Your friend is trying to construct a clock for a craft show and asks you for some advice. She has decided to construct the clock
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The period of the pendulum is  T  =  1.68 \  sec

Explanation:

The diagram illustrating this setup is shown on the first uploaded image

From the question we are told that

     The length of the rod is L =  80 \ cm

       The diameter of the ring is d = 10 \ cm

       The distance of the hole from the one end  D =  15cm

From the diagram we see that point A is the center of the brass ring

 So the length from the axis of  rotation is mathematically evaluated as

          AP = 80 + 10 -5 -15  

          AP =  70 \ cm =  \frac{70}{100}  =  0.7 \ m

Now the period of the pendulum is mathematically represented as

             T  = 2 \pi  \sqrt{\frac{AP}{g} }

             T  =  2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{0.7}{9.8 } }

             T  =  1.68 \  sec
