A truck accelerates to a velocity of 38 m/s over 755 m of road

Physics

den301095 [7]3 years ago
6 0

1) The acceleration is 0.96 m/s^2

2) The time taken is 39.6 s

Explanation:

1)

Since the motion of the truck is a uniformly accelerated motion (=constant acceleration), we can use the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance covered

For the truck in this problem,

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

v = 38 m/s

s = 755 m

Solving for a, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{38^2-0}{2(755)}=0.96 m/s^2

2)

For this part we can use the following suvat equation

v=u+at

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time taken for the velocity to change from u to v

In this problem,

u = 0

v = 38 m/s

a=0.96 m/s^2

Solving for t,

t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{38-0}{0.96}=39.6 s

Complete Question

Suppose you hit a steel nail with a 0.500-kg hammer, initially moving at 15.0 m/s and brought to rest in 2.80 mm. How much is the nail compressed if it is 2.50 mm in diameter and 6.00-cm long.What Average force is excreted on the Nail

Answer:

F=2*10^{4}N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass m=0.500kg

Initial Velocity V=15.0m/s

Distance x=2.80mm=>0.00280m

Diameter d=2.50mm=>0.00250m

Length l=6.00cm=>0.6m

Generally the equation for Force is mathematically given by

 F=\frac{mv^2}{2d}

 F=\frac{0.500*15^2}{2.80*10^{-3}}

 F=2*10^{4}N

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

W = F × s

F = 10 N,

t = 3min = 180sec

s = 0( no change in postion)

W = 10 ×0
