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

A 0.413 kg block requires 1.09 N
Virty [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

The equation for this is

f = μF_n where f is the frictional force the block needs to overcome, μ is the coefficient of static friction, and F_n = w=mg (that means that the normal force is the same as the weight of the block which has an equation of weight = mass times the pull of gravity). Filling in:

1.09 = μ(.413)(9.8) and

μ = \frac{1.09}{(.413)(9.8)} so

μ = .27

1) A net force of 75.5 N is applied horizontally to slide a 225 kg crate across the floor.
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the crate is 0.3356\,\frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

Recall the formula that relates force,mass and acceleration from newton's second law;

F=m\,a

Then in our case, we know the force applied and we know the mass of the crate, so we can solve for the acceleration as shown below:

F=m\,a\\75.5\,N=225\,\,kg\,\,a\\a=\frac{75.5}{225} \,\frac{m}{s^2} \\a=0.3356\,\,\frac{m}{s^2}

A 0.12 kg body undergoes simple harmonic motion of amplitude 8.5 cm and period 0.20 s. (a) What is themagnitude of the maximum f
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

a)F=698.83 N

b)K=8221.56 N/m

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m = 0.12 kg

Amplitude ,A= 8.5 cm

time period ,T = 0.2 s

We know that

T=\dfrac{2\pi}{\omega}

{\omega}=\dfrac{2\pi }{0.2}\ rad/s

{\omega}=31.41\ rad/s

We know that

{\omega}^2=m\ K

K=Spring constant

K=\dfrac{\omega^2}{m}

K=\dfrac{31.41^2}{0.12}\ N/m

K=8221.56 N/m

The maximum force F

F= K A

F= 8221.56 x 0.085 N

F=698.83 N

a)F=698.83 N

b)K=8221.56 N/m
