Kinetic energy is mass times velocity square mv^2 (0.75*4^2=12)
Answer:
(a) a = - 201.8 m/s²
(b) s = 197.77 m
Explanation:
(a)
The acceleration can be found by using 1st equation of motion:
Vf = Vi + at
a = (Vf - Vi)/t
where,
a = acceleration = ?
Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s (Since it is finally brought to rest)
Vi = Initial Velocity = (632 mi/h)(1609.34 m/ 1 mi)(1 h/ 3600 s) = 282.53 m/s
t = time = 1.4 s
Therefore,
a = (0 m/s - 282.53 m/s)/1.4 s
<u>a = - 201.8 m/s²</u>
<u></u>
(b)
For the distance traveled, we can use 2nd equation of motion:
s = Vi t + (0.5)at²
where,
s = distance traveled = ?
Therefore,
s = (282.53 m/s)(1.4 s) + (0.5)(- 201.8 m/s²)(1.4 s)²
s = 395.54 m - 197.77 m
<u>s = 197.77 m</u>
Answer:
r = 5.07 m
Explanation:
given,
velocity of the man , v = 3.43 m/s
centripetal acceleration, a = 2.32 m/s²
magnitude of position of = ?
using centripetal acceleration formula



r = 5.07 m
The magnitude of the position vector relative to rotational axis is equal to 5.07 m.
