Answer:

The displacement of the boat is 7.41 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the motorboat, u = 6.5 m/s west

final velocity of the motorboat, v = 1.5 m/s west

acceleration of the motorboat, a = -2.7 m/s² east

The displacement of the boat is given by;

v² = u² + 2ad

where;

d is the displacement of the motorboat

1.5² = 6.5² + 2(-2.7)d

1.5² -  6.5² = -5.4d

-40 = -5.4d

d = (40) / 5.4

d = 7.41 m

Therefore, the displacement of the boat is 7.41 m

A particle is moving along the x-axis so that its position at any time t is greater than and equal to 0 is given by x(t)=2te^-t?
erastovalidia [21]
For speed you can differentiate the equation, for acceleration you can again differentiate the equation .
at t=0 the particle is slowing down , when you get equation for velocity put t=0 then only -1 is left

A ball hits a wall horizontally at 6m/s and rebounces at 4.4m/s the ball is in contact with wall for 0.04 sec. what is the accel
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 6 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 4.4 m/s

Time taken (t) = 0.04sec

Find:

Acceleration (a) = ?

Computation:

We know that,

⇒ v = u + at

⇒ a = (v - u) / t

⇒ Acceleration (a) = (4.4 - 6) / 0.04

⇒ Acceleration (a) = (-1.6) / 0.04

Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 2.23 2.23 times a second. A tack is stuck in the t
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

       Angular velocity (\omega) = 2.23 rps

     Distance from the center (R) = 0.379 m

First, we will convert revolutions per second into radian per second as follows.

             = 2.23 revolutions per second

             = 2.23 \times 2 \times 3.14 rad/s

             = 14.01 rad/s

Now, tangential speed will be calculated as follows.

  Tangential speed, v = R \times \omega

                               = 0.379 x 14.01

                               = 5.31 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that the tack's tangential speed is 5.31 m/s.
