Answer:
Explanation:
As we know that train is initially moving with the speed
now we know that
now the final speed of the train when it crossed the crossing
now we can use kinematics here
Now the time to cross that junction is given as
Answer:
a) 10.51 J
b) 3.48 m/s
Explanation:
Given data :
mass of train ( M ) = 2.2 kg
Given initial velocity ( u ) = 1.6 m/s
<u>a) calculating work done by the force over the journey of the train</u>
F = mx + b ------ ( 1 )
m = slope = ( Δ f / Δ x ) = 2.8 / -7.5 = - 0.373 N/m
x = distance travelled on the x axis by the train = 7.5 m
F = force experienced by the train = 2.8 N
x = 0
∴ b = 2.8
hence equation 1 can be written as
F = ( -0.373) x + 2.8 ----- ( 2 )
hence to determine the work done by the force
W = Note: the limits are actually 7.5 and 0
∴ W ( work done ) = -10.49 + 21 = 10.51 J
<u>b) calculate the speed of the train at the end of its journey</u>
we will apply the work energy theorem
W = 1/2 m*v^2 - 1/2 m*u^2
∴ V^2 = 2 / M ( W + 1/2 M*u^2 ) ( input values into equation )
V^2 = 12.11
hence V = 3.48 m/s
