How to find instantaneous velocity physics?

evablogger [386]

You should have the velocity as a function of time either given explicitly or implicitly (a graph)

v = ds/dt (differentiating the position vector)

integrating the acceleration.

you can use impulse or work and energy principle and also newton law of motion to find acceleration then velocity

NOT SURE IF THAT WHAT YOU WANT.

A van starts off 152 miles directly north from the city of Springfield. It travels due east at a speed of 25 miles per hour. Aft

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

12.84 miles per hour

Explanation:

Given:

Vertical distance of starting point of van from Springfield (d) = 152 miles

Speed in east direction (s) = 25 mph

Distance traveled in east direction (e) = 91 miles

Let the direct distance from Springfield of the van be 'x' at any time 't'.

Now, from the question, it is clear that, the vertical distance of van is fixed at 152 miles and only the horizontal distance is changing with time.

Now, consider a right angled triangle SNE representing the given situation.

Point S represents Springfield, N represents the starting point of van and E represents the position of van at any time 't'.

SN = d = 152 miles (fixed)

Now, using the pythagorean theorem, we have:

$SE^2=SN^2+NE^2\\\\x^2=d^2+e^2\\\\x^2=(152)^2+e^2----(1)$

Now, differentiating both sides with respect to time 't', we get:

$2x\frac{dx}{dt}=0+2e\frac{de}{dt}\\\\\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{e}{x}\frac{de}{dt}$

Now, we are given speed as 25 mph. So, $\frac{de}{dt}=25\ mph$

Also, when $e=91\ mi$ , we can find 'x' using equation (1). This gives,

$x^2=23104+(91)^2\\\\x=\sqrt{31385}=177.16\ mi$

Now, plug in the values of 'e' and 'x' and solve for $\frac{dx}{dt}$ . This gives,

$\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{91}{177.16}\times 25\\\\\frac{dx}{dt}=12.84\ mph$

Therefore, the distance between the van and Springfield is changing at a rate of 12.84 miles per hour

Which of the following is the same in all frames of reference?

Ksju [112]

The correct option is B.
The length of an object, the mass of an object and the rate of time passage for an object can change depending on the situation which the object is subject to. For instance in space, the mass and the velocity of an object usually change. But, the value of the speed of light in the space is the same for all observers regardless of the motion of an object, that is, the speed of light is a constant.<span />
