Outside my window a squirrel is scurrying up and down a tree. Its position function is given by s(t) = t 3 − 12t 2 + 36t for the

seven seconds that I’m watching it (so from t = 0 to t = 7). (a) What is the velocity function, v(t), for the motion of the squirrel? (b) What is the acceleration function, a(t), for the motion of the squirrel? (c) At the four second mark, is the squirrel moving up the tree or down the tree? Justify your answer.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Position of squirrel is given by

s(t)=t^3-12t^2+36t

Velocity is given by

v(t)=\frac{ds(t)}{dt}=\frac{d(t^3-12t^2+36t)}{dt}

v(t)=3t^2-12\times 2t+36

v(t)=3t^2-24t+36

(b) acceleration is given by

a(t)=\frac{da(t)}{dt}=\frac{d(3t^2-24t+36)}{dt}

a(t)=6t-24

(c)at s(3)=3^3-12(3)^2+36(3)

s(3)=27\ m

at s(4)=4^3-12(4)^2+36(4)

s(4)=16\ m

at t=3\ s Position is 27\ m and at t=4\ s position is 16\ m

therefore squirrel is moving down

Answer:

Explanation:

28 / 70 = 0.3857142...  = 0.39 hr

280 / 100 = 2.8 hrs.

(100 - 0) / 10 = 10 m/s²

(60 - 20) / 4 = 10 m/s²

A 6,000N is applied to a formula one car that weighs 500kg. What is the car's acceleration?
Vesna [10]

Answer:

<h2>12 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question

f = 6000 N

m = 500 kg

We have

a =  \frac{6000}{500}  =  \frac{60}{5}  = 12 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>12 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

What is the significance of the direction of an electric field line at some point on the line?
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer with Explanation:

The direction of the electric field line at any point gives us the direction of the electric force that will act on a positive charge if placed at the point. We know that if we place a charge in an electric field it will experience a force, as we know that force is a vector quantity hence it requires both magnitude and direction for it's complete description. The direction of this electric force that acts on a charge is given by the direction of the electric field in the space. In case the charge is negatively charged electric force will act on it in the direction opposite to the direction of electric field at the point.
