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
The centripetal force is: F = mv² / R Where: m: mass of the object v: object speed R: radius of the curve. We have to: m = 2000kg v = 25 m / s R = 80 meters. Then the centripetal force acting on the vehicle is: F = (2000kg * (25m / s) ²) / 80m F = 15625 N
Skeletal muscle cells are long, cylindrical, and striated. They are multi-nucleated meaning that they have more than one nucleus. This is because they are formed from the fusion of embryonic myoblasts.
