A 1000 kg boat starts at rest and accelerates to 10 m/s in 2 seconds. How fast does the boat accelerate?

Physics
1 answer:
Hitman42 [59]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

5 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is given by

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time it takes for the velocity to change from u to v

For the boat in the problem,

v = 10 m/s

u = 0

t = 2 s

Substituting, we find the acceleration

a=\frac{10-0}{2}=5 m/s^2

SVEN [57.7K]
A (max)= A (2pi/T)
a (max)= maximum acceleration
A= amplitude
T= periodic time

by definition, amplitude is the displacement from equillibrium point.

we see that maximum acceleration is directly proportional to the amplitude. so tripling the amplitude will triple the maximum acceleration.

Given the force diagram of the basketball, what can you tell about the basketball motion?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Newton's laws allow to find the result for the movement of the basketballl:

  • On the vertical axis the ball is on the ground.
  • On the horizontal axis the ball is accelerating in the direction of the pushing force.

Newton's laws establish the relationship between the forces on objects:

  • The 1st law states that if the net force is zero the object is stationary or with constant speed.
  • The 2nd law gives a relation of the force with the mass and the acceleration of the body.
  • The 3rd. Law states that the force appears in pairs, one on each body with the same magnitude, but in the opposite direction.

Let's apply these principles to the ball's motion diagram.

The two vertical forces are in the opposite direction, one is due to the weight of the body and the other is the attraction of the earth to the support of the ball, they are of equal magnitude, not their action-reaction force and reluctant because it is applied to the same body

       In conclusion we can say that the ball is on the ground.

The two horizontal forces are in the opposite direction, the thrust force is greater than the friction therefore using Newton's second law the ball must be accelerating in the direction of the thrust force.

       In conclusion we can say that the ball is accelerating in the direction of the pushing force.

In conclusion using Newton's laws we can find the result for the motion of the basketball:

  • On the vertical axis the ball is on the ground.
  • On the horizontal axis the ball is accelerating in the direction of the pushing force.

An ambulance is rapidly approaching you at a stop light. What happens to the frequency and pitch of the sound as the ambulance d
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

A )

Explanation:

This change in frequency observation occur due to doppler effect

if the wave source moves,In the time between one wave peak being emitted and the next, the source will have moved so that the shells will no longer be concentric. The wavefronts will get closer together in front of the source as it travels and will be further apart behind it.  (see the graph)

when the person standing still in front of the ambulance, he will observe a <em>higher frequency </em>than before as the source travels towards them.

f_(observed)=\frac{V_(wave)}{V_(wave)-V_(source)} *f_(original)

The pitch we hear depends on the frequency of the sound wave.

A high frequency corresponds to a high pitch

as we hear a higher frequency , it makes the <em>pitch higher</em> too
