If a rock is thrown upward on the planet Mars with a velocity of 10 m/s, its height in meters t seconds later is given by y= 10t

- 1.86t^2. (a) Find the average velocity over the given time intervals: (i) [1, 2] (ii) [1, 1.5] (iii) [1, 1.1] (iv) [1, 1.01] (v) [1, 1.001] (b) Estimate the instantaneous velocity when t = 1.

Answer:

a)

i) v = 4.42 m/s

ii) v = 5.36 m/s

iii) v = 6.1 m/s

iv) v = 6.26 m/s

v) v = 6.28 m/s

b) The instantaneous velocity at t = 1 is 6.28 m/s

Explanation:

a) The average velocity is the variation of the position over time. It is expressed as follows:

v = Δy/Δt

Where

v = average velocity

Δy = displacement = final position - initial position

Δt = variation of time = final time - initial time

i) Let´s find the position at both times and then apply the equation for the average velocity:

y(t) = 10 · t - 1.86 · t²

y(1 s) = 10 m/s · 1 s - 1.86 m/s² · (1 s)²

y = 8.14 m

y (2 s) = 10 m/s · 2 s - 1.86 m/s² · (2 s)²

y = 12.56 m

Then, the average velocity  will be:

v = final position - initial position / final time - initial time

v = 12.56 m - 8.14 m / 2 s - 1 s = 4.42 m/s

ii) We proceed in the same way as in i)

y(1.5 s) = 10 m/s · 1.5 s - 1.86 m/s² · (1.5 s)²

y = 10.82 m

v = 10.82 m - 8.14 m / 1.5 s - 1 s = 5.36 m/s

iii)

y(1.1 s) = 10 m/s · 1.1 s - 1.86 m/s² · (1.1 s)²

y = 8.75 m

v = 8.75 m - 8.14 m / 1.1 s - 1 s = 6.1 m/s

iv)

y(1.01 s) = 10 m/s · 1.01 s - 1.86 m/s² · (1.01 s)²

y = 8.20 m

v = 8.20 m - 8.14 m / 1.01 s - 1 s = 6 m/s ( 6.26 m/s without rounding the y-final value)

v)

y(1.001 s) = 10 m/s · 1.001 s - 1.86 m/s² · (1.001 s)²

y = 8.146

v = 8.146 m - 8.14 m  / 1.001 s - 1 s = 6 m/s  (6.28 m/s without rounding the value of y-final)

b) The instantaneous velocity is given by the derivative of the position function:

y = 10 · t - 1.86 · t²

dy/dt = 10 - 2 · 1.86 · t  = 10 - 3.72 · t

At t = 1

v = 10 m/s - 3.72 m/s² · 1 s = 6.28 m/s

PHYSICS GRADE 7<br> FORCES AND ACCELERATION
aleksandrvk [35]

Force is simply a push or a pull exerted on an object in order to change the motion of the object. ... Force can change the acceleration of an object. This acceleration can be a change in speed or direction of the object.

Scientists express force using a unit called newton (N).In mechanics, acceleration is the rate of change of the

velocity of an object with respect to time. Accelerations are vector quantities (in that they have magnitude and direction). The orientation of an object's acceleration is given by the orientation of the net force acting on that object.

A person, with his ear to the ground, sees a huge stone strike the concrete pavement. A moment later two sounds are heard from t
Jet001 [13]
<h2>The impact is occurred at a distance 348.55 m far from person.</h2>

Explanation:

Let s be the distance to the impact position and t be the time when he hears the sound though concrete after impact.

Time when he hears impact through air = t + 0.90

The distance traveled by sound wave in both concrete and air is s.

Speed of sound in air = 343 m/s

Speed of sound in concrete = 3000 m/s

Distance traveled in air = Distance traveled in concrete

343 x Time when he hears impact through air = 3000 x Time when he hears impact through concrete

        343 x (t + 0.90) = 3000 x t

                  3000t - 343 t = 343 x 0.90

                  2657t = 308.7

                      t = 0.116 s

Distance traveled in concrete = 3000 x t = 3000 x 0.116 = 348.55m

So the impact is occurred at a distance 348.55 m far from person.
