A train moving with a velocity of 42.9 km/hour North, increases its speed with a uniform acceleration of 0.250 m/s^2 North until

it reaches a velocity of 160.0 km/hour North. What distance did the train travel while it was increasing its velocity, in units of meters? Give the answer as a positive number

Answer:

3658.24m

Explanation:

Hello!

the first thing that we must be clear about is that the train moves with constant acceleration

A body that moves with constant acceleration means that it moves in "a uniformly accelerated motion", which means that if the velocity is plotted with respect to time we will find a line and its slope will be the value of the acceleration, it determines how much it changes the speed with respect to time.

When performing a mathematical demonstration, it is found that the equations that define this movement are as follows.

\frac {Vf^{2}-Vo^2}{2.a} =X

Vf = final speed =160km/h=44.4m/s

Vo = Initial speed =42.9km/h=11.92m/s

A = acceleration =0.25m/s^2

X = displacement

solving

\frac {44.4^{2}-11.92^2}{2.(0.25)} =X\\X=3658.24m

the distance traveled by the train is 3658.24m

A house is advertised as having 1560 square feet under roof. What is the area of this house in square meters?
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

1 m = 3.28 ft

1 m^2 = 10.76 ft^2

1560 ft^2 / 10.76 ft^2 / m^2 = 145 m^2

The person's horizontal position is given by

x=v_0\cos40^\circ t

and the time it takes for him to travel 56.6 m is

56.6\,\mathrm m=\left(24.0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\cos40^\circ t\implies t=3.08\,\mathrm s

so your first computed time is the correct one.

The question requires a bit of careful reading, and I think there may be a mistake in the problem. The person's vertical velocity v_y at time t is

v_y=v_{0y}-gt

which tells us that he would reach the ground at about t=3.15\,\mathrm s. In this time, he would have traveled

x=v_{0x}(3.15\,\mathrm s)=57.9\,\mathrm m

But we're told that he is caught by a net at 56.6 m, which would mean that the net cannot have been placed at the same height from which he was launched. However, it's possible that the moment at which he was launched doesn't refer to the moment the cannon went off, but rather the moment at which the person left the muzzle of the cannon a fraction of a second after the cannon was set off. After this time, the person's initial vertical velocity v_{0y} would have been a bit smaller than \left(24.0\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\sin40^\circ.
