Answer:

a) 17.49 seconds

b) 13.12 seconds

c) 2.99 m/s²

Explanation:

a) Acceleration = a = 1.35 m/s²

Final velocity = v = 85 km/h = 85\frac{1000}{3600}=23.61\ m/s

Initial velocity = u = 0

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 23.61=0+1.35t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{23.61}{1.35}=17.49\ s

Time taken to accelerate to top speed is 17.49 seconds.

b) Acceleration = a = -1.8 m/s²

Initial velocity = u = 23.61\ m/s

Final velocity = v = 0

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=23.61-1.8t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{23.61}{1.8}=13.12\ s

Time taken to stop the train from top speed is 13.12 seconds

c) Initial velocity = u = 23.61 m/s

Time taken = t = 7.9 s

Final velocity = v = 0

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=23.61+a7.9\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{-23.61}{7.9}=-2.99\ m/s^2

Emergency acceleration is 2.99 m/s² (magnitude)

The distance y3,red from the center of the pattern to the location of the third diffraction minimum of the red laser is 4.05 cm.
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

L = a 1,929 10⁴ m

a = 0.1 mm = 0.1 10⁻³ m,     L = 1,929 m

Explanation:

The diffraction phenomenon is described by the expression

       a sin θ = m λ

Let's use trigonometry to find the breast

        tan θ = y / x

As the angles are very small

       tan θ = sin θ/ cos θ = sin θ = y / x

We replace

        a y / L = m λ

        L = a y / m λ

The red light has a wavelength of Lam = 700 nm = 700 10⁻⁹ m, in the third pattern it is m = 3

       L = a  4.05 10⁻² / (3 700 10⁻⁹)

       L = a 1,929 10⁴ m

To give a specific value we must know the width of the slit, suppose a value of  a = 0.1 mm = 0.1 10⁻³ m

       L = 1,929 m

Suppose that a block of mass 2 kg is pulled to the right with a force of 10 N, and the friction force on the block is directed t
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The block has an acceleration of 3 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

By means of Newton's second law it can be determine the acceleration of the block.

\sum F_{r} = ma   (1)

Where \sum F_{r} represents the net force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

F_{x} + F{y} = ma  (2)

The forces present in x are F = 10 N and f = 4 N (the friction force):

F_{x} = 10 N - 4 N

Notice that f subtracts to F since it is at the opposite direction.

F_{x} = 6 N

The forces present in y balance each other:

F_{y} = 0

Therefore:

6 + 0 = ma  

6 N = (2kg)a  (3)

But 1 N = 1 Kg.m/s^{2} and writing (3) in terms of a it is get:

a = \frac{6 Kg.m/s^{2}}{2 Kg}  

a = 3 m/s^{2}

So the block has an acceleration of a = 3 m/s^{2}.

Two identical loudspeakers 2.30 m apart are emitting sound waves into a room where the speed of sound is 340 m/s. Abby is standi
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Abby is standing (4.5^2 + 2.3^2)^1/2   from the far speaker

D2 = 5.05 m from the far speaker

The difference in distances from the speakers is

5.05 - 4.5 = .55 m     (Let y be wavelength, lambda)

n y = 4.5

(n + 1) y = 5.05 for the speakers to be in phase at smallest wavelength

y = .55 m          subtracting equations

f = v / y = 340 / .55 = 618 / sec     should be the smallest frequency
