Answer:

a)there is collision

b)V=7.79m/s

Explanation:

A body that moves with constant acceleration means that it moves in "a uniformly accelerated movement", which means that if the velocity is plotted with respect to time we will find a line and its slope will be the value of the acceleration, it determines how much it changes the speed with respect to time.

When performing a mathematical demonstration, it is found that the equations that define this movement are as follows.

Vf=Vo+a.t                                     (1)

{Vf^{2}-Vo^2}/{2.a} =X                (2)

X=Xo+ VoT+0.5at^{2}                   (3)

X=(Vf+Vo)T/2                                 (4)

Where

Vf = final speed

Vo = Initial speed

T = time

A = acceleration

X = displacement

In conclusion to solve any problem related to a body that moves with constant acceleration we use the 3 above equations and use algebra to solve

To solve this problem, we use equation number 2 to calculate the distance traveled after the end of a movement with constant speed with a time of 0.2s, if it is less than 36.576m there is no collision.

Xt=X1+X2 (5)

X1= distance traveled with constant speed

X1=distance traveled with constant acceleration

for X1

X1=Vt

where

V=50mph=22.35m/s

t=0.2

X1=0.2x22.35m/s

X1=4.47m

for X2 using ecuation number 2

Vo=22.35m/s

Vf=0m/s

a=-6m/s^2

{Vf^{2}-Vo^2}/{2.a} =X    

{0^{2}-22.35^2}/{(2).(6)} =X    

x2=41.626m

Xt=x1+x2

Xt=41.626+4.47=49m

as the distance traveled is 49m the cars crash

b) to calculate the final speed we use the ecuation number tow(2)

X=36.576m

Vo=22.35m/s

a=-6m/s^2

{Vf^{2}-Vo^2}/{2.a} =X  

solving for vf

Vf=\sqrt[2]{2ax+Vo^{2} }

Vf=\sqrt[2]{2(-6)(36.576)+22.352^{2} }=7.79m/s

A person pushes horizontally with a force of 220. N on a 61.0 kg crate to move it across a level floor. The coefficient of kinet
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

(a) 161.57 N

(b) 0.958 m/s^2

Explanation:

Force applied, F = 220 N

mass of crate, m = 61 kg

μ = 0.27

(a) The magnitude of the frictional force,

f = μ N

where, N is the normal reaction

N = m x g = 61 x 9.81 = 598.41 N

So, the frictional force, f = 0.27 x 598.41

f = 161.57 N

(b) Let a be the acceleration of the crate.

Fnet = F - f = 220 - 161.57

Fnet = 58.43 N

According to newton's second law

Fnet = mass x acceleration

58.43 = 61 x a

a = 0.958 m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration of the crate is 0.958 m/s^2.

To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 27.1: Magnetic Forces. A particle with mass 1.81×10−3 kgkg and a charge of 1.22×10−8 CC has
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration  is a = 0.33 m/s^2

The direction is - \r k i.e the negative direction of the z-axis

Explanation:

 From  the question we are that

       The mass of the particle m = 1.8*10^{-3} kg

         The charge on the particle is q = 1.22*10^{-8}C

         The velocity is \= v = (3.0*10^4 m/s ) j

        The the magnetic field is  \= B = (1.63T)\r i + (0.980T) \r j

The charge experienced  a force which is mathematically represented as

         

                    F = q (\= v * \= B)

    Substituting value

         F = 1.22*10^{-8} (( 3*10^4 ) \r j \ \ X \ \  ( 1.63 \r i  + 0.980 \r j )T)

            = 1.22 *10^{-8} ((3*10^4 * 1.63)(\r j \ \  X \ \  \r i) + (3*10^4 * 0.980) (\r j \ \ X \ \  \r  j))

            = (-5.966*10^4 N) \r k

Note :

           i \ \ X \ \ j = k \\\\j \ \  X  \ \ k = i\\\\k  \ \ X \ \ i = j\\\\j \ \ X \ \ i = -k \\\\k \ \  X  \ \ j = -i\\\\i  \ \ X \ \ k = - j\\

Now force is also mathematically represented as

        F = ma

Making a the subject

      a = \frac{F}{m}

   Substituting values

     a =\frac{(-5.966*10^4) \r k}{1.81*10^{-3}}

        = (-0.33m/s^2)\r k

        = 0.33m/s^2 * (- \r k)

Suppose your salary in 2012 is $70,000. Assuming an annual inflation rate of 7%, what salary do you need to earn in 2020 in orde
s2008m [1.1K]

Annual salary(2012) = $70,000

Annual inflation = 7%

Therefore, the salary you need to earn in 2020 in order to have the same purchasing power can be calculated below

2020-2012=8\text{ years}FV=PV\times(1+r)^n

where

n = 8

r = 7/100 = 0.07

PV = 70, 000

\begin{gathered} FV=70,000(1+0.07)^8 \\ FV=70000(1.07)^8 \\ FV\text{ = 70000}\times1.71818617983 \\ FV=120273.032588 \\ FV=\text{  \$}120,273.03 \end{gathered}

The salary you need to earn in 2020 to have the same purchasing power = $120, 273.03

Answer:

Answers in solutions.

Explanation:

<u>Question 6:</u>

The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³

The density of silver is 10.5 g/cm³

  • The density of the substance in Crown A;

Density = mass ÷ volume = \frac{1930}{100} = 19.3 g/cm³

Since the density of gold, given, is 19.3 g/cm³ and the density of the substance in Crown A has a density of 19.3 g/cm³ , then that substance must be gold.

  • The density of the substance in Crown B;

Density = mass ÷ volume = 1930 ÷ 184 = 10.48913043  g/cm³ ≈ 10.5 g/cm³  (answer rounded up to one decimal place)

Since the density of the substance in Crown B is approximately equal to 10.5 g/cm³ , then that substance is Silver.

  • The density of substance in Crown C;

Density = mass ÷ volume = 1930g ÷ 150cm³ = 12.86666667 ≈ 12.9 cm³ (answer rounded up to one decimal place)

<h3><u>The density of the mixture:</u></h3><h3 />

For 2 cm³ of the mixture, its mass equal 19.3 g + 10.5 g = 29.8 g

∴ for 1 cm³ of the mixture, its mass equal to \frac{29.8}{2} = 14.9 g

Hence the density of the mixture = 14.9 g/cm³ and is not equal to the density of the substance in Crown C.

* Crown C is not made up of a mixture of gold and silver.

<u>Question 7:</u>

<u />

  • An empty masuring cylinder has a mass of 500 g.
  • Water is poured into measuring cylinder until the liquid level is at the 100 cm³ mark.
  • The total mass is now 850 g

The mass of water that occupied the 100 cm³ space of the container = total mass - mass of the empty container = 850 g - 500 g = 350 g

Density of the liquid (water) poured into the container = mass ÷  volume = 350 g ÷ 100 cm³ = 3.5g/cm³

<u>Question 8:</u>

<u />

A tank filled with water has a volume of 0.02 m³

(a) 1 liter = 0.001 m³

How many liters? = 0.02 m³ ?

Cross multiplying gives:

\frac{0.02 * 1}{0.001} =  20 liters

(b) 1 m³ = 1,000,000 cm³

0.02 m³ = how many cm³ ?

Cross-multiplying gives;

\frac{0.02 * 1,000,000}{1} = 20,000 cm³

(c) 1 cm³ = 1 ml

∴ 0.02 m³ of the water = 20,000 cm³ = 20,000 ml

<u>Question 9:</u>

<u />

Caliper (a) measurement = 3.2 cm

Caliper (b) measurement = 3 cm

<u>Question 10:</u>

<u />

  • A stone is gently and completely immersed in a liquid of density 1.0 g/cm³
  • in a displacement can
  • The mass of liquid which overflow is 20 g

The mass of the liquid which overflow = mass of the stone = 20 g

1 gram of the liquid occupies 1 cm³ of space.

20 g of the liquid will occupy; \frac{20 * 1}{1} = 20 cm³

(a) Since the volume of the water displaced is equal to the volume of the stone.

∴ The volume of the stone = 20 cm³

(b) Mass = density ×  volume

Density of the stone = 5.0 g/cm³

Volume of the stone = 20 cm³

Mass of the stone = 5 g/cm³ × 20 cm³ = 100 g

A body with the inertial
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hi there,

To get started, recall the kinematic equations from either a textbook, equation sheet, etc. Kinematic equations are used when acceleration is <em>constant,</em> as stated in the prompt.

Best way to use kinematic equations is to see which variable you are looking for, then which variable is unknown to you and is not needed for that equation.

a) average velocity

Takes the form of:

v_a_v_g=\frac{d_t_o_t_a_l}{t}=\frac{v+v_0}{2} this is the literal definition of average velocity; initial plus final divided by 2.

We know total displacement and total time elapsed, so we will use the middle form of the equation:

v_a_v_g=\frac{1640m}{40s}=41 \ m/s

b) the final velocity

We can still use the average velocity formula, as the other two equations that include final velocity have acceleration variable which is unknown as of now.

Solve for final velocity:

v=(2v_a_v_g)-v_o = 2(41 \ m/s) - (8 m/s) = 74 m/s\\ this makes sense, since a velocity later in time is higher than a velocity earlier in time. It is increasing with increasing time because of acceleration.

c) the acceleration

There are two equations that can be used to solve this, but we will use the less time-consuming one, but both produce same answer:

a = \frac{v-v_0}{t_t_o_t_a_l} = \frac{(74-8)m/s}{40s} =1.65 m/s^{2}

Notice, change in velocity over change in time, and acceleration is constant. When acceleration is constant, it models a linear function, and acc. is just slope!

Study well and persevere. If you liked this solution, hit Thanks or give a rating!

thanks,
