Answer: The velocity at different marked time points are given as

t1 = -

t2 = +

t3 = +

t4 = -

t5 = 0

Explanation:

The slope of the tangent of the curve indicates the instantaneous velocity. So if the slope of the tangent is positive, that Is, the tangent makes a positive angle (above the horizontal axis) with the horizontal

axis, then the velocity at this point is positive, and if the slope of the tangent is negative, that is the tangent makes a negative angle with the horizontal axis (below the horizontal axis), then the velocity at this point is negative.

When the tangent of the line is parallel to the horizontal axis, the velocity is 0.

From the position-time graph attached, the sign on the instantaneous velocity for each time marked on the graph is given below

t1 = -

t2 = +

t3 = +

t4 = -

t5 = 0

Astronauts often undergo special training in which they are subjected to extremely high centripetal accelerations. One device ha
egoroff_w [7]

The centripetal acceleration of an object is given by the relation,

Ac =V^2/R

where Ac = centripetal acceleration = 98 m/s^2

R = radius of rotation = 15 m

V = speed of astronaut

Hence, \frac{V^2}{15} =98

solving this we get, V = 38.34 m/s

If a 5.5 kg object experiences 15 N of force for .15 seconds what is the speed change
Nady [450]

The speed change : Δv = 0.41 m/s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass = 5.5 kg

Force = 15 N

time = 0.15 s

Required

the speed change

Solution

Newton 2nd's law

Impulse and momentum

F = m.a

F = m . Δv/t

F.t = m.Δv

Input the value :

15 N x 0.15 s = 5.5 kg x Δv

Δv = 0.41 m/s

A system gains 767 kJ of heat, resulting in a change in internal energy of the system equal to +151 kJ. How much work is done?
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The work done on the system is -616 kJ

Explanation:

Given;

Quantity of heat absorbed by the system, Q = 767 kJ

change in the internal energy of the system, ΔU = +151 kJ

Apply the first law of thermodynamics;

ΔU = W + Q

Where;

ΔU  is the change in internal energy

W is the work done

Q is the heat gained

W = ΔU  - Q

W = 151 - 767

W = -616 kJ (The negative sign indicates that the work is done on the system)

Therefore, the work done on the system is -616 kJ
