A 2498 kg car is moving at 17.1 m/s slams on its brakes and slows to 2.6 m/s. What is the magnitude (absolute value) of the impu

lse the car experiences during this time?

Answer:

<em>J=36221 Kg.m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Impulse-Momentum Theorem</u>

These two magnitudes are related in the following way. Suppose an object is moving at a certain speed $v_1$ and changes it to $v_2$ . The impulse is numerically equivalent to the change of linear momentum. Let's recall the momentum is given by

$p=mv$

The initial and final momentums are, respectively

$p_1=mv_1,\ p_2=mv_2$

The change of momentum is

$\Delta p=p_2-p_1=m(v_2-v_1)$

It is numerically equal to the Impulse J

$J=\Delta p$

$J=m(v_2-v_1)$

We are given

$m=2498\ kg,\ v_1=17.1\ m/s,\ v_2=2.6\ m/s$

The impulse the car experiences during that time is

$J=2498(2.6-17.1)=2498(-14.5)$

J=-36221 Kg.m/s

The magnitude of J is

J=36221 Kg.m/s

12*3a car is stopped at a traffic light. it then travels along a straight road so that its distance from the light is given by w

Digiron [165]

Missing parts in the text of the exercise:
- The distance from the traffic light is given by $x(t) = bt^2 -ct^3$ , where $b=2.4 m/s^2$ and $c=0.13 m/s^3$

Solution:

part a) <span>calculate the average velocity of the car for the time interval t=0 to t=8.0 s
- The average velocity is given by the ratio between the distance covered in the time interval:
</span> $v_{ave} = \frac{x(8.0 s)-x(0 s)}{8.0 s-0 s}$
x(0 s), the distance covered after t=0 s, is zero, while the distance after t=8.0 s is
$x(8.0 s)=b(8 s)^2-c(8 s)^3 = (2.4 m/s^2)(8 s)^2 -(0.13 m/s^3)(8 s)^3=$
$=87.04 m$
Therefore, the average velocity is
$v_{ave}= \frac{x(8.0 s)-x(0)}{8.0s-0}= \frac{87.04 m}{8.0s}= 10.88 m/s$

part b) <span>calculate the instantaneous velocity of the car at t=0, t=4.0 s and t=8.0 s
- The instantaneous velocity can be found by performing the derivation of x(t):
</span> $v(t) = \frac{dx(t)}{dt}=2bt-3ct^2$
<span>So now we just have to substitute t=0, t=4 s and t=8 s:
- t=0: v(0)=0
- t=4 s: </span> $v(4.0 s)=2(2.4 m/s^2)(4.0 s)-3(0.13 m/s^2)(4.0s)^2=12.96 m/s$
- t=8 s: $v(8.0 s)=2(2.4 m/s^2)(8.0 s)-3(0.13 m/s^2)(8.0s)^2=13.44 m/s$

part c) <span>how long after starting from rest is the car again at rest?
- To solve this part we must find the value of t for which v(t)=0, so:
</span> $2bt-3ct^2=0$
$t(2b-3ct)=0$
<span>The first solution is t=0 s, which corresponds to the beginning of the motion, so we are not interested in this value. The second solution is
</span> $t= \frac{2b}{3c}= \frac{2\cdot 2.4 m/s^2}{3 \cdot 0.13 m/s^3}=12.31 s$
<span>and this is the time at which the car is at rest again.</span>

Beginning 156 miles directly east of the city of Uniontown, a truck travels due south. If the truck is travelling at a speed of

timurjin [86]

Answer:

14.3

Explanation:

The distance s as a function of time can be written as:

$s(t) = \sqrt{156^{2} + (31t)^2}$

The rate of change is the derivative of d with respect to time:

$\frac{ds}{dt} =\frac{961t}{\sqrt{156^{2}+(31t)^{2}}}$

The time t when the track has been traveling for 81 miles is given by:

$81 = 31t\\ t = \frac{81}{31}$

Using t in the previous equation gives:

$\frac{ds}{dt}(\frac{81}{31} ) =\frac{2511}{\sqrt{156^{2}+81^{2}}}=14.3$
