A car is moving at 10 m/s to the right. It accelerates for 10 s after which it is moving at 5 m/s to the left. What was the car'

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Acceleration, $a=-1.5\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial velocity of the car, u = 10 m/s (in right)

Final velocity of the car, v = -5 m/s (in left)

Time taken, t = 10 s

Let a is the acceleration of the car. It can be calculated using the equation of kinematics. The equation is as :

$v=u+at$

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$a=\dfrac{-5-10}{10}$

$a=-1.5\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the car is $-1.5\ m/s^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

two cars are moving at constant speeds in a straight line along a major highway. The first is travelling at 20ms^-1 and the seco

Reika [66]

Answer:

$t=750s$

Explanation:

The two cars are under an uniform linear motion. So, the distance traveled by them is given by:

$\Delta x=vt\\x_f-x_0=vt\\x_f=x_0+vt$

$x_f$ is the same for both cars when the second one catches up with the first. If we take as reference point the initial position of the second car, we have:

$x_0_1=6km\\x_0_2=0$

We have $x_f_1=x_f_2$ . Thus, solving for t:

$x_0_1+v_1t=x_0_2+v_2t\\x_0_1=t(v_2-v_1)\\t=\frac{x_0_1}{v_2-v_1}\\t=\frac{6*10^3m}{28\frac{m}{s}-20\frac{m}{s}}\\t=750s$

A physics professor demonstrates the Doppler effect by tying a 600 Hz sound generator to a 1.0-m-long rope and whirling it aroun

cluponka [151]

Answer:Highest frequency =618.89Hz

Lowest frequency=582.22Hz

Explanation:

The linear velocity of a sound generator is related to angular velocity and is given as

Vs = rω where

r = the radius of circular path = 1.0 m

ω is the angular velocity of the sound generator. = 100 rpm

1 rev/min = 0.10472 rad/s

100rpm =10.472 rad/ s

Vs = rω

= 1m x 10.472rad/ s= 10.472m/s

A) Highest frequency heard by a student in the classroom = Maximum frequency. Using the Doppler effect formulae,

f max = (v/ v-vs) fs

Where , v is the speed of the sound in air at 20 degrees celcius =

343 metres per second

vs is the linear velocity of the sound generator=10.472m/s

fs is the frequency of the sound generator= 600 Hz

f max = (343/ 343 - 10.472) x 600

=343/332.528) x600

=618.89Hz

B) Lowest frequency heard by a student in the classroom = Minimum frequency

f min = (v/ v+vs) fs

(343/ 343 + 10.472) x 600

=343/353.472) x 600

=582.22hz
