At the instant the traffic light turns green, a car starts with a const acceleration of 7.00 ft/sA2. At the same instant a truck

, traveling wit constant speed of 70.0 ft/s, overtakes and passes the car. How far f the starting point (in feet) will the car overtake the truck?

Answer:

d= 1400 ft :Distance from the starting point where the car reaches the truck

Explanation:

Car Kinematics : the car has uniformly accelerated movement, so we apply the following equation for distance

d₁= v₀₁*t + (1/2)* a₁*t₁² Equation 1

d₁: car distance (ft)

v₀₁: car initial speed (ft/s)

a₁ : car acceleration  (ft/s²)

t1 :  car time (s)

Truck Kinematics: The truck moves with uniform motion (constant speed), so the equation for distance is:

d₂= v₂*t₂ Equation (2)

d₂: truck distance (ft)

v₂: truck  speed (ft/s)

t₂ :  truck time (s)

Known data

v₀₁ = 0

a₁ = 7 ft/s²

v₂ = 70 ft/s

Problem development

The time and distance for when the car catches the truck is the same, then:

d₁=d₂   and  t₁=t₂= t

Equation (1  )= the Equation ( 2)

v₀₁*t₁ + (1/2)* a₁*t₁²  =  v₂*t₂

v₀₁*t + (1/2)* a₁*t²=  v₂*t

0*t + (1/2)*7*t² = 70*t   : we divide both sides of the equation by t

(1/2)*7*t = 70

t= \frac{70*2}{7}

t= 20 s

We replace t= 20 s in the equation (2)

d= 70*20 = 1400 ft :Distance from the starting point where the car reaches the truck

Answer:112.82 m/s

Explanation:

Given

range of arrow=68 m

Angle=3^{\circ}

as the arrow travels it acquire a vertical velocity v_y

v_y=u+at

v_y=0+9.81\times t-------1

Range is given by

R=ut

where u=initial velocity

68=u\times t

t=\frac{68}{u}

substitute the value of t in eqn 1

v_y=9.81\times \frac{68}{u}

v_y\times u=9.81\times 68=667.08--------2

and tan(3)=\frac{v_y}{u}

v_y=utan(3)=0.0524u

substitute it in 2

0.0524 u^2=667.08

u^2=12,728.644

u=112.82 m/s

When a wave is acted upon by an external damping force what happens to the energy of the wave
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

A-the energy of the wave decreases gradually

Explanation:

when a wave is acted upon by an external damping force the energy of the wave decreases gradually.

The energy degrades into the form of heat which is considered to be of less value and use. The reason is because it disperses and spreads more widely.

So therefore it end up as heat with a little sound but that is close to none because that too disperses into heat i.e. decreased form of energy.
