A motorcycle is following a car that is traveling at constant speed on a straight highway. Initially, the car and the motorcycle

are both traveling at the same speed of 21.5 m/s , and the distance between them is 52.0 m . After t1 = 4.00 s , the motorcycle starts to accelerate at a rate of 6.00 m/s2 . The motorcycle catches up with the car at some time t2. How long does it take from the moment when the motorcycle starts to accelerate until it catches up with the car? In other words, find t2-t1? How far does the motorcycle travel from the moment it starts to accelerate (at time t1) until it catches up with the car (at time t2 )?

Answer:

a) t = 4.16 s

b) x = 141.51 m

Explanation:

Given

v = 21.5 m/s

x0 = 52.0 m

a = 6.0 m/s²

a) Motorcycle

x = v0*t + (a*t²/2)

x = 21.5t + (6*t²/2)

x = 21.5t + 3t²   <em>(I)</em>

Car

x = x0 + v0*t

x = 52 + 21.5t  <em>(II)</em>

<em />

then we can apply <em>I = II</em>

21.5t + 3t² = 52 + 21.5t

⇒ 3t² = 52

⇒ t = 4.16 s

b) We can use <em>I</em> or <em>II</em>, then

x = 52 + 21.5*(4.16)

⇒ x = 141.51 m

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

400.7886829 rad/s

Explanation:

First we have to turn our 0.35 rev/s into rad/s using the equation

(Xrev/s)*2pi=Xrad/s we can plug in .35*2pi=.7pi rad/s

Now we can us the equation m_1*v_1*r_1^2=m_1*v_2*r_2^2 we can plug in the given. Because the mass remains the same we can cross it off of both sides giving us just: v_1*r_1^2=v_2*r_2^2

(.7pi)*(.54)^2=(v_2)*(.04)^2

(.20412pi)=(v_2)*(.0016)     [.20412pi=.6412618925]

then using division on both sides we get

(.6412618925/.0016)=v_2=400.79rad/s(This answer is rounded to the nearest hundreth)

Suppose that an electron and a positron collide head-on. Both have kinetic energy of 1.20 MeV and rest energy of 0.511 MeV. They
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

E = 1.711 MeV

Explanation:

From the law of the conservation of energy:

K.E_{e}+K.E_p + E_{e}+E_{p} = 2 E

where,

K.E_e=K.Ep= the kinetic energy of positron and electron = 1.2 MeV

E_e=E_p = Rest energy of the electron and the positron = 0.511 MeV

E = Energy of Photon = ?

Therefore,

1.2\ MeV + 1.2\ MeV + 0.511\ MeV + 0.511\ MeV = 2E\\\\E = \frac{3.422\ MeV}{2}\\\\

<u>E = 1.711 MeV</u>
