Answer:

$-4 m/s^2$

Explanation:

The acceleration of the bycicle is given by:

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

where

v = 20 m/s is the final velocity of the bike

u = 40 m/s is the initial velocity

t = 5 s is the time interval

Substituting numbers, we find

$a=\frac{20 m/s-40 m/s}{5s}=-4 m/s^2$

and the acceleration is negative, which means that the bycicle is slowing down.

Answer:

<em>The new period of oscillation is D) 3.0 T</em>

Explanation:

<u>Simple Pendulum</u>

A simple pendulum is a mechanical arrangement that describes periodic motion. The simple pendulum is made of a small bob of mass 'm' suspended by a thin inextensible string.

The period of a simple pendulum is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Where L is its length and g is the local acceleration of gravity.

If the length of the pendulum was increased to 9 times (L'=9L), the new period of oscillation will be:

$T'=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L'}{g}}$

$T'=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{9L}{g}}$

Taking out the square root of 9 (3):

$T'=3*2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Substituting the original T:

$T'=3*T$

The new period of oscillation is D) 3.0 T

B. Assuming the acceleration is still -9.81 m/s2, what is the instantaneous velocity of the

goblinko [34]

We have that the instantaneous velocity of the shuttlecock when it hits the ground is

$V_{int}=\sqrt{U^2+19.6H}$

From the question we are told

Assuming the acceleration is still -9.81 m/s2, what is the instantaneous velocity of the

shuttlecock when it hits the ground? Show your work below.

Generally the equation for acceleration is mathematically given as

$a=v \frac{dv}{dx}\\\\\Therefore\\\\\2ah=v^2-u^2$

Where

acceleration is still -9.81 m/s2,

Hence,

$V^2-U^2=2(-9.81)*-H$

Therefore

$V_{int}=\sqrt{U^2+19.6H}$
