labwork [276]

Answer:

The answer is given below

Explanation:

u is the initial velocity, v is the final velocity. Given that:

m_1=0.6kg,u_1=-5m/s(moving \ west),m_2=0.8kg,u_2=2m/s,k=1200N/m

a)

The final velocity of cart 1 after collision is given as:

v_1=(\frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2})u_1+\frac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\  Substituting:\\v_1=\frac{0.6-0.8}{0.6+0.8} (-5)+\frac{2*0.8}{0.6+0.8}(2)= 5/7+16/7=3\ m/s

The final velocity of cart 2 after collision is given as:

v_2=(\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2})u_2+\frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_1\\  Substituting:\\v_1=\frac{0.8-0.6}{0.6+0.8} (2)+\frac{2*0.6}{0.6+0.8}(-5)= 2/7-30/7=-4\ m/s

b) Using the law of conservation of energy:

\frac{1}{2}m_1u_1+ \frac{1}{2}m_2u_2=\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1+\frac{1}{2}m_2v_2+\frac{1}{2}kx^2\\x=\sqrt{\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1-m_2v_2}{k}}\\ Substituting\ gives:\\x=\sqrt{\frac{0.6*(-5)^2+0.8*2^2-(0.6*3^2)-(0.8*(-4)^2)}{1200}}=\sqrt{0}=0\ cm

Suppose that an object is moving along a vertical line. Its vertical position is given by the equation L(t) = 2t3 + t2-5t + 1, w
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The average velocity is

266\frac{m}{s},274\frac{m}{s} and 117\frac{m}{s} respectively.

Explanation:

Let's start writing the vertical position equation :

L(t)=2t^{3}+t^{2}-5t+1

Where distance is measured in meters and time in seconds.

The average velocity is equal to the position variation divided by the time variation.

V_{avg}=\frac{Displacement}{Time} = Δx / Δt = \frac{x2-x1}{t2-t1}

For the first time interval :

t1 = 5 s → t2 = 8 s

The time variation is :

t2-t1=8s-5s=3s

For the position variation we use the vertical position equation :

x2=L(8s)=2.(8)^{3}+8^{2}-5.8+1=1049m

x1=L(5s)=2.(5)^{3}+5^{2}-5.5+1=251m

Δx = x2 - x1 = 1049 m - 251 m = 798 m

The average velocity for this interval is

\frac{798m}{3s}=266\frac{m}{s}

For the second time interval :

t1 = 4 s → t2 = 9 s

x2=L(9s)=2.(9)^{3}+9^{2}-5.9+1=1495m

x1=L(4s)=2.(4)^{3}+4^{2}-5.4+1=125m

Δx = x2 - x1 = 1495 m - 125 m = 1370 m

And the time variation is t2 - t1 = 9 s - 4 s = 5 s

The average velocity for this interval is :

\frac{1370m}{5s}=274\frac{m}{s}

Finally for the third time interval :

t1 = 1 s → t2 = 7 s

The time variation is t2 - t1 = 7 s - 1 s = 6 s

Then

x2=L(7s)=2.(7)^{3}+7^{2}-5.7+1=701m

x1=L(1s)=2.(1)^{3}+1^{2}-5.1+1=-1m

The position variation is x2 - x1 = 701 m - (-1 m) = 702 m

The average velocity is

\frac{702m}{6s}=117\frac{m}{s}
