The driver of a pickup truck going 89.9 km/h applies the brakes giving the truck a uniform deceleration of 5.99 m/s^2 while it t

ravels 19.3 m.
a. The velocity of the truck in m/s at the end of this displacement is
_________ m/s.
b. How much time has elapsed?
_________s

(a) First, convert the truck's velocity from km/h to m/s:

89.9\,\dfrac{\mathrm{km}}{\mathrm h}\cdot\dfrac{10^3\,\mathrm m}{\mathrm{km}}\cdot\dfrac{\mathrm h}{3600\,\mathrm s}=25.0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

Then the velocity v after traveling \Delta x=19.3\,\mathrm m satisfies

v^2-{v_0}^2=2a\Delta x

where v_0 and a are the truck's initial velocity and acceleration, respectively. So we have

v^2-\left(25.0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)^2=2\left(-5.99\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(19.3\,\mathrm m)

\implies v^2=394\,\dfrac{\mathrm m^2}{\mathrm s^2}

\implies v=\pm19.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

Taking the square root gives two possible velocities of the same magnitude but in opposite directions. It's technically feasible that over the given displacement, the truck changes its direction and is accelerating back towards its starting position since we're treating the truck as a particle.

(b) When acceleration is constant, average velocity is given by

v_{\mathrm{av}}=\dfrac{x-x_0}t=\dfrac{v+v_0}2

which tells us that

t=\dfrac{2(19.3\,\mathrm m)}{v+25.0\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}}

Plugging in both possible values of v we found earlier, we get t=0.862\,\mathrm s (if v is positive) or t=7.42\,\mathrm s (if v is negative).

Explain how to correctly add vectors in 2-D
Simora [160]
To add vectors we can use the head to tail method (Figure 1).
Place the tail of one vector at the tip of the other vector.
Draw an arrow from the tail of the first vector to the tip of the second vector. This new vector is the sum of the first two vectors.

The pressure on a volume of liquid V = 1.0 mº at the surface is approximately equal to the atmospheric pressure Patm = 1.00 x 10
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:-2.86*10⁻⁴

Explanation: Use the equation change in volume = (change in pressure * original volume) / Bulks Modulus. ΔV = (-Δp*V₀) / B

Plugging in your numbers, you should get ΔV = (-2.29*10⁷*1) / (8*10¹⁰) = -2.86*10⁻⁴

ΔP = P₂-P₁  ----> ΔP = 2.30*10⁷ - 1.00*10⁵ = 2.29*10⁷

A(n) 83 kg fisherman jumps from a dock into a 139 kg rowboat at rest on the West side of the dock. If the velocity of the fisher
Anna71 [15]

here we can say that there is no external force on fisherman and dock

so here we will use momentum conservation theory

As per momentum conservation

initial momentum of fisherman + boat = final momentum of fisherman + boat

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

now we will have

83(3.1) + 139(0) = 83 v + 139 v

257.3 = 222v

v = 1.16 m/s

so the speed of boat and fisherman will be 1.16 m/s
