Explanation:

we first convert 2 minutes to seconds,which will give us 120s (2×60).

v=u +at where (v=final velocity,u is the initial velocity,a is the acceleration of the car and t the time taken)

V=25 m/s

u=0 m/s since the car started from rest 

t=120s

substituting the values we get 

25=0+a (120)

25=120a (diving both sides by 120 we get)

a=0.208m/s^2

The hardest part of the job is to find the right formula to use, and write it down. You've already done that ! The rest is just turning the crank until an answer falls out.

You wrote. E = m g h.
Beautiful.
Now divide each side by (g h), and you'll have the formula for mass:

m = E / (g h).

You know all the numbers on the right side. Just pluggum in, do the arithmetic, and you'll have the mass.

A 950-kg car strikes a huge spring at a speed of 22m/s (fig. 11-54), compressing the spring 5.0m. (a) what is the spring stiffne

alukav5142 [94]

(a) The spring stiffness constant of the spring is 18,392 N/m.

(b) The time the car was in contact with the spring before it bounces off in the opposite direction is 0.23 s.

<h3>Kinetic energy of the car</h3>

The kinetic energy of the car is calculated as follows;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

K.E = ¹/₂ x 950 x 22²

K.E = 229,900 J

<h3>Stiffness constant of the spring</h3>

The stiffness constant of the spring is calculated as follows;

K.E = U = ¹/₂kx²

k = 2U/x²

k = (2 x 229,900)/(5)²

k = 18,392 N/m

<h3>Force exerted on the spring</h3>

F = kx

F = 18,392 x 5

F = 91,960 N

<h3>Time of impact</h3>

F = mv/t

t = mv/F

t = (950 x 22)/(91960)

t = 0.23 s

Use the information from the graph to answer the question.

galina1969 [7]

The displacement of the object as determined from the velocity-time graph is 562.5 m.

<h3>What is a velocity-time graph?</h3>

A velocity-time graph is a graph of the velocity of an object plotted in the vertical or y-axis of the graph against the time taken on the horizontal or x-axis.

The displacement of an object can be obtained from its velocity-time graph by calculating the total area under the graph.

The total area under the graph = area of triangle + area of rectangle

Area of triangle = b*h/2 =

Area of triangle = 25 * (35 - 10)/2 = 312.5 m

Area of rectangle = l * b

Area of rectangle = 10 * 25 = 250 m

Total area = (312.5 + 250) m

Total area = 562.5 m

Therefore, the displacement of the object is 562.5 m

In conclusion, the total area of a velocity-time graph gives the displacement.

already did the work, i just need someone to see if i did the tangent line right? the line has to touch the point 0.6! thank you

Dmitrij [34]

The tangent looks good.

The curve is a bit crooked, at the 0.9 and 1.

But overall, cool graph.
