Explanation:
1. "A car traveling at +33 m/s sees a red light and has to stop. If the driver can accelerate at -5.5 m/s², how far does it travel?"
Given:
v₀ = 33 m/s
v = 0 m/s
a = -5.5 m/s²
Unknown: Δx
To determine the equation you need, look for which variable you don't have and aren't solving for. In this case, we aren't given time and aren't solving for time. So look for an equation that doesn't have t in it.
Equation: v² = v₀² + 2aΔx
Substitute and solve:
(0 m/s)² = (33 m/s)² + 2(-5.5 m/s²) Δx
Δx = 3 m
2. "A plane starting from rest at one end of a runway accelerates at 4.8 m/s² for 1800 m. How long did it take to accelerate?"
Given:
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 4.8 m/s²
Δx = 1800 m
Unknown: t
Equation: Δx = v₀ t + ½ a t²
Substitute and solve:
1800 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (4.8 m/s²) t²
t ≈ 27 s
Answer:
Initial speed = 20 m/s
Final speed = 35 m/s
Time to speed up = 5 seconds
Explanation:
Directly from the information given:
Initial speed = 20 m/s
Final speed = 35 m/s
Time to speed up = 5 seconds
Answer:
30.63 m
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Total time (T) spent by the ball in air = 5 s
Maximum height (h) =.?
Next, we shall determine the time taken to reach the maximum height. This can be obtained as follow:
Total time (T) spent by the ball in air = 5 s
Time (t) taken to reach the maximum height =.?
T = 2t
5 = 2t
Divide both side by 2
t = 5/2
t = 2.5 s
Thus, the time (t) taken to reach the maximum height is 2.5 s
Finally, we shall determine the maximum height reached by the ball as follow:
Time (t) taken to reach the maximum height = 2.5 s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Maximum height (h) =.?
h = ½gt²
h = ½ × 9.8 × 2.5²
h = 4.9 × 6.25
h = 30.625 ≈ 30.63 m
Therefore, the maximum height reached by the cannon ball is 30.63 m
