An object is released from rest at time t = 0 and falls through the air, which exerts a resistive force such that the accelerati

on a of the object is given by a = g bv, where v is the object's speed and b is a constant. If limiting cases for large and small values of t are considered, which of the following is a possible expression for the speed of the object as an explicit function of time? A) v = g(1-e^-bt)/b B) v = (ge^bt)/b C) v = (g+a)t/b

Answer:

A) \frac{g}{b}(1-e^{-bt})

Explanation:

Since a = g - bv,

We can substitute a = dv/dt into the equation.

Then, the equation will be like dv/dt = g - bv.

So we got first order differential equation.

As known, v = 0 at t = 0, and v = g/b at t = ∞.

Since \frac{dv}{dt}= g - bv = b( \frac{g}{b} - v) ⇒ \frac{dv}{ \frac{g}{b} - v}= bdt

So take the integral of both side.

- ln (\frac{g}{b} - v) = bt + C

Since for t=0, v = 0 ⇒ C =- ln (\frac{g}{b})

v = \frac{g}{b} + e^{-bt-ln(\frac{g}{b})} = \frac{g}{b}- \frac{g}{b}e^{-bt} = \frac{g}{b}(1-e^{-bt})

Two boats start together and race across a 48-km-wide lake and back. boat a goes across at 48 km/h and returns at 48 km/h. boat
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Time required by boat 1 for the round trip is less than that of boat 2.

Hence, boat 1 wins.

Explanation:

Case 1: Boat 1

Speed of boat = \frac{distance of river}{time}

time = \frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}

While going to another end

time = \frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}

time = \frac{48}{48}

time = 1 hour

While going back,

time = \frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}

time = \frac{48}{48}

time = 1 hour

Total time taken by boat 1 is,

Total time by boat 1 = 1 hour + 1 hour = 2 hour

Total time by boat 1 = 2 hour

Total time taken by boat 1 for the round trip is 2 hour.

Case 2: Boat 2

Speed of boat = \frac{distance of river}{time}

time = \frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}

While going to another end

time = \frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}

time = \frac{48}{24}

time = 2 hour

While going back,

time = \frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}

time = \frac{48}{72}

time = 0.66 hour

Total time taken by boat 2 is,

Total time by boat 1 = 2 hour + 0.66 hour

Total time by boat 1 = 2.66 hour

Total time taken by boat 2 for the round trip is 2.66 hour.

Time required by boat 1 for the round trip is less than that of boat 2.

Hence, boat 1 wins.
