A car is stopped for a traffic signal. When the light turns green, the car accelerates, increasing its speed from 0 to 4.60 m/s

in 0.888 s. What are the magnitudes of the linear impulse and the average total force experienced by a 74.0 kg passenger in the car during the time the car accelerates

Answer:

(a).The value of force applied on the car during acceleration F = 383.32 N

(b).The value of impulse on the car  I = 340.4 N-sec

Explanation:

Acceleration of the car  a = \frac{4.6}{0.888} = 5.18 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

Mass of the passengers = 74 kg

Total force experienced by the car = mass  × acceleration

⇒ F = m × a

Put the values of mass & acceleration in the above formula we get

Force F = 74 × 5.18

⇒ F = 383.32 N

This is the value of force applied on the car during acceleration.

linear Impulse is given by I = F × Δt

Where F = force applied on the car

Δt  = time interval upon which the force is applied on the car

⇒ I = 383.32 × 0.888

⇒ I = 340.4 N-sec

This is the value of impulse on the car.

A mass weighing 32 pounds stretches a spring 2 feet. Determine the amplitude and period of motion if the mass is initially relea
grandymaker [24]

A mass weighing 32 pounds stretches a spring 2 feet.

(a) Determine the amplitude and period of motion if the mass is initially released from a point 1 foot above the equilibrium position with an upward velocity of 6 ft/s.

(b) How many complete cycles will the mass have completed at the end of 4 seconds?

Answer:

A = 1.803 ft

Period = \frac{\pi}{2} seconds

8 cycles

Explanation:

A mass weighing 32 pounds stretches a spring 2 feet;

it implies that the mass (m) = \frac{w}{g}

m= \frac{32}{32}

= 1 slug

Also from Hooke's Law

2 k = 32

k = \frac{32}{2}

k = 16 lb/ft

Using the function:

\frac{d^2x}{dt} = - 16x\\\frac{d^2x}{dt} + 16x =0

x(0) = -1        (because of the initial position being above the equilibrium position)

x(0) = -6          ( as a result of upward velocity)

NOW, we have:

x(t)=c_1cos4t+c_2sin4t\\x^{'}(t) = 4(-c_1sin4t+c_2cos4t)

However;

x(0) = -1 means

-1 =c_1\\c_1 = -1

x(0) =-6 also implies that:

-6 =4(c_2)\\c_2 = - \frac{6}{4}

c_2 = -\frac{3}{2}

Hence, x(t) =-cos4t-\frac{3}{2} sin 4t

A = \sqrt{C_1^2+C_2^2}

A = \sqrt{(-1)^2+(\frac{3}{2})^2 }

A=\sqrt{\frac{13}{4} }

A= \frac{1}{2}\sqrt{13}

A = 1.803 ft

Period can be calculated as follows:

= \frac{2 \pi}{4}

= \frac{\pi}{2} seconds

How many complete cycles will the mass have completed at the end of 4 seconds?

At the end of 4 seconds, we have:

x* \frac{\pi}{2} = 4 \pi

x \pi = 8 \pi

x=8 cycles

a tire has a tread pattern with a crevice every 4.00 cm. each crevice makes a single vibration as the tire moves. what is the fr
koban [17]

the frequency (in hz) of these vibrations if the car moves at 24.2 m/s is 605 HZ .

Calculation :

frequency = \frac{number of contacts}{second}

frequency = \frac{24.2 m/s}{1}*100cm*\frac{1}{4cm}

= 605 HZ

Frequency describes the number of waves passing through a particular location in a particular time. So if the wave takes 1/2 second to travel, the frequency is 2 per second. If it takes 1/100th of an hour, the frequency is 100 per hour.

Frequency is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit time. ... sometimes called time-frequency for clarity,

A rocket in deep space has an empty mass of 220 kg and exhausts the hot gases of burned fuel at 2500 m/s. What mass of fuel is n
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let fuel is released at the rate of dm / dt where m is mass of the fuel

thrust created on rocket

= d ( mv ) / dt

= v dm / dt

this is equal to force created on the rocket

= 220 dv / dt

so applying newton's law

v dm / dt = 220 dv / dt

v dm = 220 dv

dv / v = dm / 220

integrating on both sides

∫ dv / v    = ∫ dm / 220

lnv =  ( m₂ - m₁ ) / 220

ln4000 - ln 2500 = ( m₂ - m₁ ) / 220

( m₂ - m₁ ) = 220 x ( ln4000 - ln 2500 )

( m₂ - m₁ ) = 220 x ( 8.29  - 7.82 )

= 103.4 kg .
