-- The truck begins the scenario moving at 6 m/s.

-- After increasing its speed at the rate of 2 m/s² for 12 seconds,
it has gained (2 x 12) = 24 m/s of speed, and it's then moving
at 30 m/s. 

-- The truck's average speed during the 12 seconds is (1/2) (6 + 30) = 18 m/s 

-- Traveling at an average speed of 18 m/s for 12 seconds,
the truck travels

(18 m/s) x (12 sec) = 216 meters

storchak [24]

Answer:

v = 12.52 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the energy conservation theorem. Which tells us that potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy or vice versa. This is more clearly as the potential energy decreases the kinetic energy increases.

Ep = Ek

where:

Ep = potential energy [J] (units of joules]

Ek = kinetic energy [J]

Ep = m*g*h

where:

m = mass of the rock = 45 [g] = 0.045 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

h = elevation = (20 - 12) = 8 [m]

Ek = 0.5*m*v²

where:

v = velocity [m/s]

The reference level of potential energy is taken as the ground level, at this level the potential energy is zero, i.e. all potential energy has been transformed into kinetic energy. In such a way that when the Rock has fallen 12 [m] it is located 8 [m] from the ground level.

m*g*h = 0.5*m*v²

v² = (g*h)/0.5

v = √(9.81*8)/0.5

v = 12.52 [m/s]

A ceiling fan has three blades. The moment of inertia of a blade is 0.2kgm^2. The net torque exerted on fan blades is 8Nm. Find
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

(A) the angular acceleration of the blades is 13.33 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

moment of inertia of a blade, I = 0.2 kgm²

net torque exerted on fan blades, ∑τ =  8Nm

Torque is given as product of moment of inertia and angular acceleration;

τ = Iα

where;

α is the angular acceleration

Since there are three blades of the ceiling fan, the net torque is given as;

∑τ = (3I)α

∑τ = 3Iα

α = ∑τ / 3I

α = (8) / (3 x 0.2)

α = 13.33 m/s

Therefore, the angular acceleration of the blades is 13.33 m/s.

What is the frequency of a wave whose wavelength is 0.7m and whose velocity is 120m/s?
ANEK [815]

Answer:

f=171.43Hz

Explanation:

Wave frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time.

The frequency formula is: f=v÷λ, where <em>v</em> is the velocity and <em>λ</em> is the wavelength.

Then replacing with the data of the problem,

f=\frac{120\frac{m}{s} }{0.7m}

f=171.43\frac{1}{s}

f=171.43 Hz (because \frac{1}{s} = Hz, 1 hertz equals 1 wave passing a fixed point in 1 second).
