Answer:
a) t = 746 s
b) t = 666 s
Explanation:
a)
- Total time will be the sum of the partial times between stations plus the time stopped at the stations.
- Due to the distance between stations is the same, and the time between stations must be the same (Because the train starts from rest in each station) we can find total time, finding the time for any of the distance between two stations, and then multiply it times the number of distances.
- At any station, the train starts from rest, and then accelerates at 1.1m/s2 till it reaches to a speed of 95 km/h.
- In order to simplify things, let's first to convert this speed from km/h to m/s, as follows:
- Applying the definition of acceleration, we can find the time traveled by the train before reaching to this speed, as follows:
- Next, we can find the distance traveled during this time, assuming that the acceleration is constant, using the following kinematic equation:
- In the same way, we can find the time needed to reach to a complete stop at the next station, applying the definition of acceleration, as follows:
- We can find the distance traveled while the train was decelerating as follows:
- Finally, we need to know the time traveled at constant speed.
- So, we need to find first the distance traveled at the constant speed of 26.4m/s.
- This distance is just the total distance between stations (3.0 km) minus the distance used for acceleration (x₁) and the distance for deceleration (x₃), as follows:
- x₂ = L - (x₁+x₃) = 3000 m - (316.8 m + 158.4 m) = 2525 m (6)
- The time traveled at constant speed (t₂), can be found from the definition of average velocity, as follows:
- Total time between two stations is simply the sum of the three times we have just found:
- t = t₁ +t₂+t₃ = 24 s + 95.6 s + 12 s = 131.6 s (8)
- Due to we have six stations (including those at the ends) the total time traveled while the train was moving, is just t times 5, as follows:
- tm = t*5 = 131.6 * 5 = 658.2 s (9)
- Since we know that the train was stopped at each intermediate station for 22s, and we have 4 intermediate stops, we need to add to total time 22s * 4 = 88 s, as follows:
- Ttotal = tm + 88 s = 658.2 s + 88 s = 746 s (10)
b)
- Using all the same premises that for a) we know that the only difference, in order to find the time between stations, will be due to the time traveled at constant speed, because the distance traveled at a constant speed will be different.
- Since t₁ and t₃ will be the same, x₁ and x₃, will be the same too.
- We can find the distance traveled at constant speed, rewriting (6) as follows:
- x₂ = L - (x₁+x₃) = 5000 m - (316.8 m + 158.4 m) = 4525 m (11)
- The time traveled at constant speed (t₂), can be found from the definition of average velocity, as follows:
- Total time between two stations is simply the sum of the three times we have just found:
- t = t₁ +t₂+t₃ = 24 s + 171.4 s + 12 s = 207.4 s (13)
- Due to we have four stations (including those at the ends) the total time traveled while the train was moving, is just t times 3, as follows:
- tm = t*3 = 207.4 * 3 = 622.2 s (14)
- Since we know that the train was stopped at each intermediate station for 22s, and we have 2 intermediate stops, we need to add to total time 22s * 2 = 44 s, as follows:
- Ttotal = tm + 44 s = 622.2 s + 44 s = 666 s (15)
Answer:
1/3 the distance from the fulcrum
Explanation:
On a balanced seesaw, the torques around the fulcrum calculated on one side and on another side must be equal. This means that:
where
W1 is the weight of the boy
d1 is its distance from the fulcrum
W2 is the weight of his partner
d2 is the distance of the partner from the fulcrum
In this problem, we know that the boy is three times as heavy as his partner, so
If we substitute this into the equation, we find:
and by simplifying:
which means that the boy sits at 1/3 the distance from the fulcrum.
- The weight of the fluid displaced is equal to the buoyant force on a submerged object. The mass divided by the volume thus determined gives a measure of the average density of the object.
