GalinKa [24]

Answer:

a = 52s²

Explanation:

<u>How to find acceleration</u>

Acceleration (a) is the change in velocity (Δv) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation a = Δv/Δt. This allows you to measure how fast velocity changes in meters per second squared (m/s^2). Acceleration is also a vector quantity, so it includes both magnitude and direction.

<u>Solve</u>

We know initial velocity (u = 16), velocity (v = 120) and acceleration (a = ?)

We first need to solve the velocity equation for time (t):

v = u + at

v - u = at

(v - u)/a = t

Plugging in the known values we get,

t = (v - u)/a

t = (16 m/s - 120 m/s) -2/s2

t = -104 m/s / -2 m/s2

t = 52 s

A bicycle rim has a diameter of 0.65 m and a moment of inertia, measured about its center, of 0.21 kg⋅m2What is the mass of the
stepan [7]

Answer:

m = 1.99 kg = 2 kg

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of a bicycle rim about it's center is given by the following formula:

I = mr^{2}\\

where,

I = Moment of Inertia of the Bicycle Rim = 0.21 kg.m²

r = Radius of the Bicycle Rim = Diameter of the Bicycle Rim/2

r = 0.65 m/2 = 0.325 m

m = Mass of the Bicycle Rim = ?

Therefore,

0.21\ kg.m^{2} = m(0.325\ m)^{2}\\m = \frac{0.21\ kg.m^{2}}{(0.325\ m)^{2}}\\

<u>m = 1.99 kg = 2 kg</u>

Given a particle that has the velocity v(t) = 3 cos(mt) = 3 cos (0.5t) meters, a. Find the acceleration at 3 seconds. b. Find th
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

a.\rm -1.49\ m/s^2.

b. \rm 50.49\ m.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Velocity of the particle, v(t) = 3 cos(mt) = 3 cos (0.5t) .

<h2>(a):</h2>

The acceleration of the particle at a time is defined as the rate of change of velocity of the particle at that time.

\rm a = \dfrac{dv}{dt}\\=\dfrac{d}{dt}(3\cos(0.5\ t ))\\=3(-0.5\sin(0.5\ t.))\\=-1.5\sin(0.5\ t).

At time t = 3 seconds,

\rm a=-1.5\sin(0.5\times 3)=-1.49\ m/s^2.

<u>Note</u>:<em> The arguments of the sine is calculated in unit of radian and not in degree.</em>

<h2>(b):</h2>

The velocity of the particle at some is defined as the rate of change of the position of the particle.

\rm v = \dfrac{dr}{dt}.\\\therefore dr = vdt\Rightarrow \int dr=\int v\ dt.

For the time interval of 2 seconds,

\rm \int\limits^2_0 dr=\int\limits^2_0 v\ dt\\r(t=2)-r(t=0)=\int\limits^2_0 3\cos(0.5\ t)\ dt

The term of the left is the displacement of the particle in time interval of 2 seconds, therefore,

\Delta r=3\ \left (\dfrac{\sin(0.5\ t)}{0.05} \right )\limits^2_0\\=3\ \left (\dfrac{\sin(0.5\times 2)-sin(0.5\times 0)}{0.05} \right )\\=3\ \left (\dfrac{\sin(1.0)}{0.05} \right )\\=50.49\ m.

It is the displacement of the particle in 2 seconds.

A uniform electric field exists in the region between two oppositely charged plane parallel plates. a proton is released from re
dedylja [7]

According to Newton's second law

E.e = a * mp  ..... (1)

where

E is the magnitude of the electric field; e = 1.6 * 10^-19 is the elementary charge; mp = 1.67*10^-27 kg is the proton mass; a is the acceleration.

So, the distance

l = at^2/2 .......(2)

The proton accelerated

a = 2l / t^2 ...........(3)

From equations (1) and (3)

E= 32.51 V/m

Electric field

The physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and exerts a force on all other charged particles in the field, either attracting or repelling them, is known as an electric field (also known as an E-field).  It can also refer to a system of charged particles' physical field. Electric charges and time-varying electric currents are the building blocks of electric fields. The electromagnetic field, one of the four fundamental interactions (also known as forces) of nature, manifests itself in both electric and magnetic fields.
