Multiple-Concept Example 13 presents useful background for this problem. The cheetah is one of the fastest accelerating animals,

for it can go from rest to 30.4 m/s in 5.40 s. If its mass is 108 kg, determine the average power developed by the cheetah during the acceleration phase of its motion. Express your answer in (a) watts and (b) horsepower.

Answer:

9241.6 W or 12.39318 hp

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity = 0

v = Final velocity

m = Mass

t = Time taken

Energy

KE=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\Rightarrow KE=\frac{1}{2}108(30.4^2-0^2)\\\Rightarrow KE=49904.64\ Joules

Power

P=\frac{KE}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{49904.64}{5.4}\\\Rightarrow P=9241.6\ W

Converting to hp

1\ W=\frac{1}{745.7}\ hp

\\\Rightarrow 9241.6\ W=\frac{9241.6}{745.7}\ hp=12.39318\ hp

The power developed by the cheetah is 9241.6 W or 12.39318 hp

A particle is at the position (x,y,z) = (1.0, 2.0, 3.0) m. it is traveling with a vector velocity (-5.3, -4.8, -3.9) m/s. its ma

<1, 2, 3> x (7.6 <-5.3, -4.8, -3.9>) x stands for cross product 

What does the above notation mean? 

Multiply 7.6 to each component of the velocity vector to obtain the linear momentum vector. Find the cross product of the position vector and the linear momentum vector. That gives you the angular momentum vector.

7.6 * -5.3 = -40.28
7.6 * -4.8 = -36.48
7.6 * -3.9 = -29.64

Cross Multiplication
-40.28   1 = -80.56 - (-36.48)
-36.48   2   

-40.28   1 = -120.84 - (-29.64)
-29.64   3    

-36.48   2 = -109.44 - (-59.28)
-29.64   3

answer is (-91.2) - (50.16) + 117.04 = -24.32

initially, a particle is moving at 5.33 m/s at an angle of 37.9° above the horizontal. Two seconds later, its velocity is 6.11 m
Ainat [17]

Explanation:

Average acceleration is the change in velocity over the change in time:

a = (v − v₀) / t

In the x direction:

aₓ = (6.11 cos (-54.2°) − 5.33 cos (37.9°)) / 2.00

aₓ = -0.316 m/s²

In the y direction:

aᵧ = (6.11 sin (-54.2°) − 5.33 sin (37.9°)) / 2.00

aᵧ = -4.11 m/s²
