Given
initial position = Xi= 19.9m
Final position Xf = 5.4m
Average velocity= Va = -0.418m/s
it shows displacement is reverse.
To find t=?
As Va = (Xf- Xi) / t
t = (Xf-Xi) / ( Va)
t = ( 5.4-19.9) / (-0.418)
t = (-14.5 ) / (-0.418) (-ve sign cancel out at numerator and denominator)
t =34.69 s
The velocity of the combination of Jackie and the bicycle is 3.328 m/s.
Explanation:
From the given data the constant kinetic energy is 3.6 J. The mass of combination is 0.65 kg. To find the velocity of the combination of Jackie and the bicycle the formula is
KE = 0.5 x mv2.
To find velocity,
V2=ke/(0.5×m)
V=
v= 3.6/(0.5×0.65)
=
v= 3.328 m/s
Hence, the velocity of the combination of Jackie and the bicycle is 3.328m/s.
Answer:
The force on the grass hopper is equal and opposite to the force on the wind shield.
Explanation:
It is a known fact every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Here the action force is the grasshopper hitting the windshield.
The reaction force is the force exerted by the windshield on the grasshopper.
If the force of windshield on the grasshopper is more, grasshopper would have been thrown away. If the grasshopper's force on the windshield is greater, the windshield would have broken.
But here these constitute equal and opposite action-reaction pair of forces and so the grasshopper is able to repeatedly strike the windshield.
