Answer:
No, the acceleration is not always zero.
Explanation:
It does not mean that the acceleration of the particle is zero.
The velocity of wave is different from the velocity of particle.
The acceleration of wave is different from the acceleration of particle.
the acceleration of the particle is given by
where, w is the angular frequency and y is the displacement from the mean position.
So, the acceleration is zero at mean position only and it varies as the position changes.
Answer:
d) None of the above
Explanation:
= inituial velocity of launch = 4 m/s
θ = angle of launch = 10 deg
Consider the motion along the vertical direction
= initial velocity along vertical direction = 4 Sin10 = 0.695
m/s
= acceleration along the vertical direction = - 9.8 m/s²
y = vertical displacement = - 20 m
t = time of travel
using the equation
- 20 = (0.695) t + (0.5) (- 9.8) t²
t = 2.1 sec
consider the motion along the horizontal direction
x = horizontal displacement
= initial velocity along horizontal direction = 4 Cos10 = 3.94 m/s
= acceleration along the horizontal direction = 0 m/s²
t = time of travel = 2.1 s
Using the kinematics equation
x = (3.94) (2.1) + (0.5) (0) (2.1)²
x = 8.3 m
Consider the motion along the vertical direction
= initial velocity along vertical direction = 4 Sin10 = 0.695
m/s
= acceleration along the vertical direction = - 9.8 m/s²
=initial vertical position at the time of launch = 20 m
= vertical position at the maximum height = 20 m
= final velocity along vertical direction at highest point = 0 m/s
using the equation
= 20.02 m
h = height above the starting height
h = -
h = 20.02 - 20
h = 0.02 m
