Given: Change of x is 35.4m, Velocity Final=7.10 m/s, Velocity Initial=0m/s
Find: Acceleration
Analysis:
Vf²=Vi²+2aΔx (Velocity final squared equals Velocity initial squared plus 2 times acceleration times change of x)
(7.10 m²/s)²=(0 m/s)²+2a(35.4 m)
50.41 m/s²=(70.8 m)a
a=0.712 m/s²
<span>If the swimmer is swimming perpendicular to the current, it will take her 66m / 0.42 m/s = 157.14 seconds to cross the river. At the same time, the current will be taking her downstream at a rate of 0.32 m/s. So, when she reaches the opposite bank, her total downstream distance traveled will have been 0.32*157.14 = 50.28 meters.</span>
Answer:
t = 0.657 s
Explanation:
First, let's use the appropiate equations to solve this:
V = √T/u
This expression gives us a relation between speed of a disturbance and the properties of the material, in this case, the rope.
Where:
V: Speed of the disturbance
T: Tension of the rope
u: linear density of the rope.
The density of the rope can be calculated using the following expression:
u = M/L
Where:
M: mass of the rope
L: Length of the rope.
We already have the mass and length, which is the distance of the rope with the supports. Replacing the data we have:
u = 2.31 / 10.4 = 0.222 kg/m
Now, replacing in the first equation:
V = √55.7/0.222 = √250.9
V = 15.84 m/s
Finally the time can be calculated with the following expression:
V = L/t ----> t = L/V
Replacing:
t = 10.4 / 15.84
t = 0.657 s
