To calculate the acceleration of the truck, we use the equation of motion

$v = u + at$

Here, v is final velocity of the truck, u is initial velocity of truck, a is acceleration of the truck and t is time taken.

Given, u = 6 m/s, v = 14 m/s and t = 4 s.

Substituting these values in above equation, we get

$14 \ m/s = 6 \ m/s + a \times 4 \ s \\\\ a = \frac{14 \ m/s - 6 \ m/s}{ 4 \ s } = 2 \ m /s^2$ .

Thus, the truck acceleration is $2 \ m /s^2$

mario62 [17]

Answer:Average Velocity of the trip=98.77km/h

Explanation:

Given that:

Black Panther started his journey with

Distance ran towards east = 567.5km

Time ran towards east = 2.3 hours

and then turned back,

Distance ran towards west, = 2218 km

Time taken towards west, = 1.2 hours

Let us treat the westward movement as negative movement of the east

So total displacement =567.5 km east + (-2218km east )= 1,650.5km

But it seems the value of the distance ran west is wrong , because i do not think he can run 2218km under 1.2hours considering he ran 567.5m due east at 2.3hours .

So Let we use 221.8 km as distance ran due west.

So that Total Displacement becomes = 567.5 km east + (-221.8km east )= 345.7km

Total time = 2.3 + 1.2 = 3.5hrs.

Average velocity = Total displacement / total time

.345.7km / 3.5hr = 98.77km/h

Two particles each of mass m and charge q are suspended by strings of length / from a common point. Find the angle e that each s

ozzi

Answer:

$\theta =\left (\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}\times mg} \right )^{\frac{1}{3}}$

Explanation:

Let the length of the string is L.

Let T be the tension in the string.

Resolve the components of T.

As the charge q is in equilibrium.

T Sinθ = Fe ..... (1)

T Cosθ = mg .......(2)

Divide equation (1) by equation (2), we get

tan θ = Fe / mg

$tan\theta =\frac{\frac{kq^{2}}{AB^{2}}}{mg}$

$tan\theta =\frac{\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}Sin^{\theta }}}}{mg}$

$tan\theta =\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}Sin^{2}\theta \times mg}$

$tan\theta\times Sin^{2}\theta =\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}\times mg}$

As θ is very small, so tanθ and Sinθ is equal to θ.

$\theta ^{3} =\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}\times mg}$

$\theta =\left (\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}\times mg} \right )^{\frac{1}{3}}$
