Part a)

At t = 0  the position of the object is given as

x = 0

At t = 2

x = 2 sin(\pi/2) = 2cm

so displacement of the object is given as

d = 2 - 0 = 2cm

so average speed is given as

v_{avg} = \frac{2}{2} = 1 cm/s

Part b)

instantaneous speed is given by

v = \frac{dy}{dt}

v = 2cos(\pi t/4 ) * \frac{\pi}{4}

now at t= 0

v = \frac{\pi}{2} cm/s

at t = 1

v = 2 cos(\pi/4) * \frac{\pi}{4}

v = \frac{\pi}{2\sqrt2}

at t = 2

v = 0

Part c)

Average acceleration is given as

a_{avg} = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a_{avg} = \frac{0 - \frac{\pi}{2}}{2}

a = -\frac{\pi}{4} cm/s^2

Part d)

Now for instantaneous acceleration

As we know that

a =- \omega^2 y

at t = 0

a = -\frac{\pi^2}{16} * 0 = 0 cm/s^2

at t = 1

y = \sqrt2 cm

now we have

a = -\frac{\pi^2}{16}*\sqrt2

At t = 2 we have

y = 2 cm

a = -\frac{\pi^2}{16}*2

a = -\frac{\pi^2}{8}

<em>so above is the instantaneous accelerations</em>

Any child is pushing a shopping cart at a speed of 1.5 m/s.how long will it take this child to push the cart down the aisle with
NARA [144]
1.5 m/s is the velocity. 9.3 m is the length of aisle, over which Distance will be covered. Time is demanded in which the child will move the cart over the aisle with 1.5 m/s. v=S/t and, t=S/v Put values, t=9.3/1.5=6.2 s

A child is sliding down a slide at the playgound. is mechanicalenergy conserved
Flauer [41]

No. Mechanical energy is not conserved.  There's quite a bit of friction on the slide.  So some of the potential energy is lost to heat on the way down, and the child arrives at the bottom with hot pants and less kinetic energy than you might expect.
