Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

Asteroids are the rocky materials that are present abundantly in an orbit between the planet Mars and Jupiter. This is known as the asteroid belt, which is comprised of millions of asteroids that move around the sun. They are of various sizes ranging from a few meters to about hundreds of kilometers, which can cause mass extinction if strikes on the surface of the earth. They move at a speed of about 80,000 km/hr and during this motion, frequent collision takes place and they are considered to be the remnant of the early solar system.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

Answer:

Mistake in question

The correct question

A drag car starts from rest and moves down the racetrack with an acceleration defined by a = 50 - 10t , where a and t are in m/s² and seconds, respectively. After reaching a speed of 125 m/s, a parachute is deployed to help slow down the dragster. Knowing that this deceleration is defined by the relationship a = - 0.02v², where v is the velocity in m/s, determine (a) the total time from the beginning of the race until the car slows back down to 10 m/s, (b) the total distance the car travels during this time.

Explanation:

Given the function

a = 50 —10t

The car started from rest u = 0

And it accelerates to a speed of 125m/s

Then, let find the time in this stage

Acceleration can be modeled by

a = dv/dt

Then, dv/dt = 50—10t

Using variable separation to solve the differentiation equation

dv = (50—10t)dt

Integrating both sides

∫ dv = ∫ (50—10t)dt

Note, v ranges from 0 to 125seconds, so we want to know the time when it accelerate to 125m/s. So t ranges from 0 to t'

∫ dv = ∫ (50—10t)dt

v = 50t —10t²/2. Equation 1

[v] 0<v<125 = 50t —10t²/2 0<t<t'

125—0 = 50t — 5t² 0<t<t'

125 = 50t' — 5t'²

Divide through by 5

25 = 10t' — t'²

t'² —10t' + 25 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation

t'² —5t' —5t' + 25 = 0

t'(t' —5) —5(t' + 5) = 0

(t' —5)(t' —5) = 0

Then, (t' —5) = 0 twice

Then, t' = 5 seconds twice

So, the car spent 5 seconds to get to 125m/s.

The second stage when the parachute was deployed

We want to the time parachute reduce the speed from 125m/s to 10m/s,

So the range of the velocity is 125m/s to 10m/s. And time ranges from 0 to t''

The function of deceleration is give as

a = - 0.02v²

We know that, a = dv/dt

Then, dv/dt = - 0.02v²

Using variable separation

(1/0.02v²) dv = - dt

(50/v²) dv = - dt

50v^-2 dv = - dt

Integrate Both sides

∫ 50v^-2 dv = -∫dt

(50v^-2+1) / (-2+1)= -t

50v^-1 / -1 = -t

- 50v^-1 = -t

- 50/v = - t

Divide both sides by -1

50/v = t. Equation 2

Then, v ranges from 125 to 10 and t ranges from 0 to t''

[ 50/10 - 50/125 ] = t''

5 - 0.4 = t''

t'' = 4.6 seconds

Then, the time taken to decelerate from 125s to 10s is 4.6 seconds.

So the total time is

t = t' + t''

t = 5 + 4.6

t = 9.6 seconds

b. Total distanctraveleded.

First case again,

We want to find the distance travelled from t=0 to t = 5seconds

a = 50—10t

We already got v, check equation 1

v = 50t —10t²/2 + C

v = 50t — 5t² + C

We add a constant because it is not a definite integral

Now, at t= 0 v=0

So, 0 = 0 - 0 + C

Then, C=0

So, v = 50t — 5t²

Also, we know that v=dx/dt

Therefore, dx/dt = 50t — 5t²

Using variable separation

dx = (50t —5t²)dt

Integrate both sides.

∫dx = ∫(50t —5t²)dt

x = 50t²/2 — 5 t³/3 from t=0 to t=5

x' = [25t² — 5t³/3 ]. 0<t<5

x' = 25×5² — 5×5³/3 —0

x' = 625 — 208.333

x' = 416.667m

Stage 2

The distance moved from

t=0 to t =4.6seconds

a = -0.002v²

We already derived v(t) from the function above, check equation 2

50/v = t + C.

When, t = 0 v = 125

50/125 = 0 + C

0.4 = C

Then, the function becomes

50/v = t + 0.4

50v^-1 = t + 0.4

Now, v= dx/dt

50(dx/dt)^-1 = t +0.4

50dt/dx = t + 0.4

Using variable separation

50/(t+0.4) dt = dx

Integrate both sides

∫50/(t+0.4) dt = ∫ dx

50 In(t+0.4) = x

t ranges from 0 to 4.6seconds

50In(4.6+0.4)—50In(4.6-0.4) = x''

x'' = 50In(5) —50In(4.2)

x'' = 8.72m

Then, total distance is

x = x' + x''

x = 416.67+8.72

x = 425.39m

The total distance travelled in both cases is 425.39m
