a 1500 kg car accelerates uniformly from rest to 10.0 meters per secound in 3.0 secound .what is the work done on the car in thi

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

The work done on the car is, W = 75,000 J

The power delivered by the engine, P = 25,000 watts

Explanation:

Given,

The mass of the car, m = 1500 Kg

The initial velocity of the car, u = 0

The final velocity of the car, v = 10 m

The time duration of the travel, t = 3 s

Using the first equation of motion

v = u + at

a = (v - u) / t

Substituting the given values in the above equation

a = (10 - 0) / 3

= 3.33 m/s²

Using the second equations of motion

s = ut + 1/2 at²

= 0 + 0.5 x 3.33 x 3²

= 15 m

The force exerted by the car

F = m x a

= 1500 Kg x 3.33 m/s²

= 5000 N

The work done by the car,

W = F x S

= 5000 N x 15 m

= 75,000 J

Hence, the work done on the car is, W = 75,000 J

The power delivered by the engine,

P = W / t

= 75,000 J / 3 s

= 25,000 watts

The power delivered by the engine, P = 25,000 watts

Consider two particles A and B. The angular position of particle A, with constant angular acceleration, depends on time accordin

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

θ = θ₀ + ½ w₀ (t -t_1) + α (t -t_1)²

Explanation:

This is an angular kinematic exercise the equation for the angular position

the particle A

θ = θ₀ + ω₀ t + ½ α t²

They say for the particle B

w₀B = ½ w₀

αB = 2 α

In addition, the particle begins at a time t_1 after particle A, in order to use the same timer, we must subtract this time from the initial

t´ = t - t_1

et's write the equation of particle B

θ = θ₀ + w₀B t´ + ½ αB t´2

replace

θ = θ₀ + ½ w₀ (t -t_1) + ½ 2α (t -t_1)²

θ = θ₀ + ½ w₀ (t -t_1) + α (t -t_1)²

How fast is a wave traveling if it has a wavelength of 7 meters and a frequency of 11 Hz?

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

$\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{ \sf{77 \: m/s}}}}$

☯ Question :

How fast is a wave travelling if it has a wavelength of 7 meters and a frequency of 11 Hz?

☯ $\underbrace{ \sf{Required \: Answer : }}$

☥ Given :

Wavelength ( λ ) = 7 meters
Frequency ( f ) = 11 Hz

☥ To find :

Speed of sound ( v ) = ?

☄ We know ,

$\boxed{ \sf{v = f \times λ}}$

where ,

v = speed of sound
f = frequency
λ = wavelength

Now, substitute the values and solve for v.

➺ $\sf{v = 11 \times 7}$

➺ $\boxed{ \sf{v = 77 \: m/s}}$

-------------------------------------------------------------------

✑ Additional Info :

Frequency : The number of complete vibrations made by a particle of a body in one second is called it's frequency. It is denoted by the letter f . The SI unit of frequency is hertz ( Hz ).

Wavelength : The distance between two consecutive compressions or rarefactions of a sound wave is called wavelength of that wave. It is denoted by λ ( lambda ) and it's SI unit is m.

Speed of a sound wave : The distance covered by a sound wave in one second is called speed of sound wave. It depends on the product of wavelength and frequency of the wave.

Hope I helped!

Have a wonderful time! ツ
