Two motorcycles travel along a straight road heading due north. At t = 0 motorcycle 1 is at x = 50.0 m and moves with a constant

speed of 6.5 m/s; motorcycle 2 starts from rest at x = 0 and moves with constant acceleration. Motorcycle 2 passes motor cycle 1 at the time t = 10.0s. What is the speed of motorcycle 2 when it passes motorcycle 1?

Answer:

Vf = 23 m/s

Explanation:

First we need to find the distance covered by the motorcycle 2 when it passes motorcycle 1. Using the uniform speed equation for motorcycle 1:

s₁ = v₁t₁

where,

s₁ = distance covered by motorcycle 1 = ?

v₁ = speed of motorcycle 1 = 6.5 m/s

t₁ = time = 10 s

Therefore,

s₁ = (6.5 m/s)(10 s)

s₁ = 65 m

Now, for the distance covered by motorcycle 2 at the meeting point. Since, the motorcycle started 50 m ahead of motorcycle 2. Therefore,

s₂ = s₁ + 50 m

s₂ = 65 m + 50 m

s₂ = 115 m

Now, using second equation of motion for motorcycle 2:

s₂ = Vi t + (1/2)at²

where,

Vi = initial velocity of motorcycle 2 = 0 m/s

Therefore,

115 m = (0 m/s)(10 s) + (1/2)(a)(10 s)²

a = 230 m/100 s²

a = 2.3 m/s²

Now, using 1st equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 0 m/s + (2.3 m/s²)(10 s)

<u>Vf = 23 m/s</u>

A car is traveling 35 mph on a smooth surface. If a balanced force is applied to the car, what happens?
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Here is the answer.

Explanation:

Balanced forces- they are those forces that produce 0 resultant forces.

therefore, on applying a balanced force on the object, it wouldn't result in any change, as resultant force would be 0.

What is the wavelength of a wave traveling at 300 m/s if the frequency is 10 Hz?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

30 m

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave is found by the velocity divided by the frequency. Therefore, the wavelength is (300 m/s)/(10 Hz) = 30 m

I hope this helps! :)

Two of the three tuning forks have known frequencies. When a 610 Hz fork and the unknown fork are struck together, four beats pe
RUDIKE [14]

-- In combination with 610 Hz, the beat frequency is 4 Hz.

So the unknown frequency is either (610+4) = 614 Hz
or else (610-4) = 606 Hz.

In combination with 605 Hz, the beat frequency will be
either (614-605) = 9 Hz or else (606-605) = 1 Hz.

-- In actuality, when combined with the 605 Hz, the beat
frequency is too high to count accurately.  That must be
the 9 Hz rather than the 1 Hz.

So the unknown is (605+9) = 614 Hz.

How do you work out instantaneous speed?
Alik [6]
To calculate instantaneous speed, we need to divide part of the total distance traveled by time. However, we don't want to use the distance of the entire trip, because that will give us average speed.
