A particle moving along the x-axis has its velocity described by the function vx =2t2m/s, where t is in s. its initial position

At time t = 1.3 s, the position of the particle is 4.3 m.

Velocity of a particle is the rate of change of its displacement.

Therefore, the velocity of the particle v_x along the <em>x</em> direction is given by,

v_x = \frac{dx}{dt}

The change in the position of the particle is given by,

dx = vdt

Integrate the equation.

x=\int {v_x} \, dt

Substitute v_x =2t^2 and simplify.

x=\int {v_x} \, dt =\int {2t^2} \, dt = \frac{2}{3} t^3+C

Calculate the constant of integration C by applying initial conditions, when  t =0, x= 2.8 m.

x=\frac{2}{3} t^3 + 2.8

Substitute 1.3 s for t and calculate the value of x.

x=\frac{2}{3} t^3 + 2.8\\ x_1_._3 =\frac{2}{3}(1.3)^3+2.8= 4.2647 m\\ =4.3 m (2 sf)

The position of the particle after 1.3 s is 4.3 m

Why do windows have two panes of glass separated by a layer of air
Soloha48 [4]

Air is a poor conductor of heat.  The air trapped between the two panes is a pretty good <em>insulator</em>.  It does a lot to prevent heat from flowing through the windows ... keeping heat IN during the Winter, and OUT during the Summer.

A 98-kg fullback, running at 5.0 m/s, attempts to dive directly across the goal line for a touchdown. Just as he reaches the lin
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

(a) Explained below

(b) v_f=0.35\ m/s

(c) Yes

Explanation:

<u>Law Of Conservation Of Linear Momentum</u>

The total linear momentum of a system of particles or objects is conserved unless an external force is acting on the system. The formula for the momentum of a body with mass m and velocity v is P=mv. If there is a system of bodies, then the total linear momentum is the sum of the individual momentums

P=m_1v_1+m_2v_2+...+m_nv_n

When objects collide and join together, the only final mass is the sum of all masses, all traveling at the same speed.

Our m_1=98\ kg fullback runs at v_1=5\ m/s. Two two 68-kg linebackers attempt to stop him, one at -2.0 m/s and the other at -4.0 m/s. The negative value is because the run against the positive direction, taken in the direction of the fullback.

(a) Before the event, there is a total linear momentum, computed as the sum of the momentums of each player as shown

p_1=m_1v_1=(98)(5)=490 Kg\ m/s

p_2=m_2v_2=(68)(-4)=-272 kg\ m/s

p_3=m_3v_3=(68)(-2)=-136 kg\ m/s

p_t=p_1+p_2+p_3=390-272-136=82\ kg\ m/s

After the collision, all the players keep joined in one single mass of.

m_t=98+68+68=234\ kg

They will move at a speed which will be computed below

(b) The final momentum of the system is

p_f=m_tv_f=82\ kg\ m/s

Since the linear momentum is conserved, the final speed v_f is common to all of the players. Let's solve to find it

\displaystyle v_f=\frac{p_f}{m_t}

\displaystyle v_f=\frac{82}{234}

v_f=0.35\ m/s

(c) Since the final speed of the players is positive, it means the touchdown was actually scored, the fullback moved forward across the goal line, the positive reference.

A satellite is orbiting the earth. If a payload of material is added until it doubles the satellite's mass, the earth's pull of
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When a satellite is orbiting the earth, the centripetal force is balanced by the gravitational force as :

\dfrac{GMm}{r^2}=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}...........(1)

Where

M is the mass of the earth

m is the mass of the planet

From equation (1), the speed of the satellite depends only on the mass of the earth and the orbital radius.

So, If a payload of material is added until it doubles the satellite's mass, the earth's pull of gravity on this satellite will double but the satellite's orbit will not be affected. It is true.
