The acceleration of a particle moving along a straight line is given by a = −kt2 m/s2 where k is a constant and time t is in sec

onds. The initial velocity of the particle at t = 0 is v0 = 12 m/s and the particle reverses it direction of motion at t = 6 s. Determine the constant k and the displacement of the particle over the same 6-second interval of motion. Ans: k = 1/6 m/s4, Δs = 54 m

Answer:

X - Xo = 54m

k = 1/18

Explanation:

Data:

a = -kt^{2}\frac{m}{s^{2} }

to = 0s    Vo = 12m/s

t = 6s the particle chage it's moviment, so v = 0 m/s

We know that acceleration is the derivative of velocity related to time:

a = \frac{dV}{dT}

rearranging...

a*dT = dV

Then, we must integrate both sides:

\int\limits^f_i {dV} \, dV =-k \int\limits^f_i {t^{2} } \, dT

V - Vo = -k\frac{t^{3} }{3}

V = 0 because the exercise says that the car change it's direction:

0 - 12 = -k\frac{6^{3} }{3}

k = 1/6

In order to find X - Xo we must integer v*dT = dX

V - Vo = -k\frac{t^{3} }{3}

so...

(Vo -k\frac{t^{3} }{3})dT = dX

\int\limits^f_i {dX} \, dX = \int\limits^f_i {Vo -k\frac{t^{3} }{3} } \, dT

integrating...

X - Xo = Vot -k\frac{t^{4} }{12}

X - Xo = 12*6 -\frac{1}{6}* \frac{6^{4} }{12}

X - Xo = 54m

Changing the direction of current will or will not affect the strength of an electromagnet
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

he polarity of the electromagnet is determined by the direction the current. The north pole of the electromagnet is determined by using your right hand. Wrap your fingers around the coil in the same direction as the current is flowing (conventional current flows from + to -).

In series circuit, Req = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + ···

In parallel circuit, \frac{1}{Req}  = \frac{1}{R1} + \frac{1}{R2} + \frac{1}{R3} +...

<h3>Q7.</h3>

total resistance in the upper branch = R₂ + R₃ = R₂ + 2

\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{R2+R3} + \frac{1}{R1}

\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{R2+2} +\frac{1}{6}

R₂ + 2 = 12

R₂ = 10Ω

<h3>Q8.</h3>

\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{R2+R3} + \frac{1}{R1}

\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{2+1} + \frac{1}{4}

Req = 1.7Ω
