A car is moving in the positive direction along a straight highway and accelerates at a constant rate while going from point A t

o point B. If the acceleration is positive, increasing the speed of the car, when does the position where the average speed equals the instantaneous speed occur during the time interval from A to B? Assume the time interval is T.

Answer:

The time where the avergae speed equals the instaneous speed is T/2

Explanation:

The velocity of the car is:

v(t) = v0 + at

Where v0 is the initial speed and a is the constant acceleration.

Let's find the average speed. This is given integrating the velocity from 0 to T and dividing by T:

v_{ave} = \frac{1}{T}\int\limits^T_0 {v(t)} \, dt

v_ave = v0+a(T/2)

We can esaily note that when <u><em>t=T/2</em></u><u><em> </em></u>

v(T/2)=v_ave

Now we want to know where the car should be, the osition of the car is:

x(t) = x_A + v_0 t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

Where x_A is the position of point A. Therefore, the car will be at:

<u><em>x(T/2) = x_A + v_0 (T/2) + (1/8)aT^2</em></u>

If a speeding train hits the brakes and it takes the train 39 seconds to go from 54.8 m/s to 12 m/s what is the acceleration?
jekas [21]

Answer:

-1.09m/sec^2

Explanation:

Acceleration= (Vf-Vi)/Time

=12-54.8

= -42.8

= -42.8/39

=-1.09

-ve sign is due to recoil of train

as it suddenly hits brakes.

g The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms separated by a large distance x is given by U(x)=−C6/x6, where C6 is a positi
Arisa [49]

Answer:

F_x = -\frac{6 C_6}{2^7}

Attractive

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms given by \frac{C_6}{X_6}

Based on the given information, the force that one atom exerts on the other is

Potential energy μ = \frac{C_6}{X_6}

Force exerted by one atom upon another

F_x = \frac{\partial U}{\partial X} = \frac{\partial}{\partial X}  (-\frac{C_6}{X^6})

or

F_x = \frac{\partial}{\partial X}  (\frac{C_6}{X^6})

or

F_x = -\frac{6 C_6}{2^7}

As we can see that the C_6 comes in positive and constant which represents that the force is negative that means the force is attractive in nature

A van de Graaff generator accelerates electrons so that they have energies equivalent to that attained by falling through a pote
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete hence I will give you a general answer on how A van de Graaff generator works

answer :

If the electrons falls through a PD of 150mV the electron will gain energy of   150MeV

Explanation:

when a Van de Graff generator is used to accelerate an electron through a PD ( potential difference ) of any value the particle ( electron )  the electron will gain energy  ( eV )  which is is equivalent in value of the PD it accelerated through

hence if the electrons falls through a PD of 150mV the electron will gain energy of   150MeV
