You need to get to class, which is 282 meters away. You can only walk in the hallway at about 2.0 m/s (if you go any faster, you

'll be caught or running).
How much time will it take to get to your class?

Answer:

Time, t = 141 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the class and the person, d = 282 m

Speed of the person, v = 2 m/s

We need to find the time taken by the person to get to your class. Let the time taken is t. The speed of the person is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}$

$t=\dfrac{282\ m}{2\ m/s}$

t = 141 seconds

So, the time taken by the person to get to your class is 141 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

a 42.3 kg girl and a 7.93 kg sled are on the surface of a frozen lake, 15.0m apart and linked by a rope, but not moving yet. the

ycow [4]

Answer:

they meet from the girl's original position at: 2.37 (meters)

Explanation:

We need to use the Newton's law, exactly the second law that relate force, mass and acceleration as: $F=m*a$ with this we can get both accelerations; solving for acceleration $a=\frac{F}{m}$ . Now $a_{girl}=\frac{5.76}{42.3}=0.14 (m/s^{2})$ and $a_{sled}=\frac{5.76}{7.93}=0.73(m/s^{2})$ . Then knowing that they both travel at the same time and assuming that the distance among the girl and the sled is: 15.0-x, so, $x=\frac{1}{2}*a_{girl}*t^{2}$ and $15.0-x=\frac{1}{2}*a_{sled}*t^{2}$ , solving for the time we get: $t=\sqrt{\frac{2x}{a_{girl} } }$ and $t=\sqrt{\frac{2*(15.0-x)}{a_{sled} } }$ with this equations we solving for the x that is the distance between the girl and the sled after the apply the force and we get: $\sqrt{\frac{2x}{a_{girl}}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*(15.0-x)}{a_{sled} }$ . Finally we get: $\frac{x}{a_{girl} }=\frac{(15.0-x)}{a_{sled} }$ and replacing the values we have got: $\frac{x}{0.14} =\frac{(15.0-x)}{0.73}$ so $5.33*x=15-x$ so x=2.37 (meters).

Astronauts use a centrifuge to simulate the acceleration of a rocket launch. The centrifuge takes 40.0 s to speed up from rest t

Vinvika [58]

Answer

Time period T = 1.50 s

time t = 40 s

r = 6.2 m

a)

Angular speed ω = 2π/T

= $\dfrac{2\pi }{1.5}$

= 4.189 rad/s

Angular acceleration α = $\dfrac{\omega}{t}$

= $\dfrac{4.189}{40}$

= 0.105 rad/s²

Tangential acceleration a = r α = 6.2 x 0.105 = 0.651 m/s²

b)The maximum speed.

v = 2πr/T

= $\dfrac{2\pi \times 6.2}{1.5}$

= 25.97 m/s

So centripetal acceleration.

a = $\dfrac{v^2}{r}$

= $\dfrac{25.97^2}{6.2}$

= 108.781 m/s^2

= 11.1 g

in combination with the gravitation acceleration.

$a_{total} = \sqrt{(11.1g)^2+g^2}$

$a_{total}= 11.145 g$
