Answer:

The duration of the impact is 0.005384 seconds

Explanation:

Given

m = 0.43 kg

v = 5.2 m/s

x = 0.014 m

Knowing the formulas

v^{2}_{f} = v^{2}_{i} + 2ax\\0 = 5.2^{2}  + 2a*0.014\\a = - 965.71 m/s^{2} \\\\vf = vi + at\\0 = 5.2 + (965.71)t\\t = 0.005384 s

Answer:

5.385×10⁻³

Explanation:

First we find the acceleration

Using the equation of motion,

v² = u²+2as........................ Equation 1

Where v = Final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance.

make a the subject of the equation,

a = (v²-u²)/2s................. Equation 2

Given: v = 0 m/s (comes to rest), u = 5.2 m/s, s = 0.014 m

Substitute into equation 2

a = (0²-5.2²)/(2×0.014)

a = -27.04/0.028

a = -965.71 m/s²

Finally Using

a = (v-u)/t

where t = Duration of impact

make t the subject of the equation

t = (v-u)/a.................... Equation 3

Given: v = 0 m/s, u = 5.2 m/s, a = -965.71 m/s²

Substitute into equation 3

t = (0-5.2)/-965.71

t = -5.2/-965.71

t = 5.385×10⁻³ s.

Hence the duration of impact =  5.385×10⁻³

2) Two railway tracks are parallel to west east direction. Along one track, train A moves with a speed of 45 m/s from
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Relative\ Velocity = 105m/s

Explanation:

Given

V_A = 45m/s

V_B = 60m/s

Required

Determine the speed of B w.r.t A

The question implies that, we determine the relative velocity of B w.r.t A

Because both trains are moving towards one another, the required velocity is a sum\ of\ velocities\ of both trains:

This is shown below:

Relative\ Velocity = V_A + V_B

Relative\ Velocity = 45m/s + 60m/s

Relative\ Velocity = 105m/s

The real place should theoretically have space for 87 passengers if it is an exact model and doesn't have modifications in the seat numbers.

A man runs 1200m on a straight line in 4 min . find his velocity.
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

5m/sec^2

Explanation:

Distance=1200m

Time=4 min

1=60sec

4=4 x 60

=240sec

Velocity=Distance/Time

Velocity=1200/240

Velocity=5m/sec^2

If a stone dropped into a well reaches the water's surface after 3.0 seconds, how far did the stone drop before hitting the wate
pogonyaev
Let h =  distance (m) to the water surface.

Initial velocity, u  = 0 (because the stone was dropped).
Use the formula
 h = ut + (1/2)gt^2
  where g = 9.8 m/s^2  (acc. due to graity)
              t = time (s)

h = (1/2)*(9.8)*(3^2) = 44.1 m
