Calculate the acceleration of a 1400-kg car that stops from 39 km/h "on a dime" (on a distance of 1.7 cm).

Answer:

a=-3449.67\frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

The car is under an uniforly accelerated motion. So, we use the kinematic equations. We calculate the acceleration from the following equation:

v_f^2=v_0^2+2ax

We convert the initial speed to \frac{m}{s}

39\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=10.83\frac{m}{s}

The car stops, so its final speed is zero. Solving for a:

a=\frac{v_0^2}{2x}\\a=-\frac{(10.83\frac{m}{s})^2}{2(1.7*10^{-2}m)}\\a=-3449.67\frac{m}{s^2}

Between the top of the first and the top of the second loop, the coaster has lost potential energy = mgh, where h = 22.2 - 15 = 7.2m

This energy would have converted to Kinetic. Write out an equation and the masses will cancel out. Does that hint help you to find the solution? If not, I will give you another hint.

Your bike starts with an initial velocity of 1 m/s and you accelerate to 4 m/s in 6 seconds. How far did you travel while accele
garri49 [273]

Answer:

78 m

Explanation:

Initial v = 1 m/s

a = 4 m/s²

t = 6s

x = v_{i} t + \frac{1}{2}at^{2} \\x = (1)(6) + \frac{1}{2} (4)(6)^{2} \\x = 6 + 72\\x = 78
