A. 17km because that is the total amount you have moved if the question was asking displacement it would be 3.

If the equation of an average velocity of a sport car was given by the equation V(t) = 3t^2 -6t +24. Determine its displacement

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

72

Explanation:

The displacement of an object can be found from the velocity of the object by integrating the expression for the velocity.

In this problem, the velocity of the sport car is given by the expression

$v(t)=3t^2-6t+24$

In order to find the expression for the position of the car, we integrate this expression. We find:

$x(t)=\int v(t) dt=t^3-3t^2+24t+C$

where C is an arbitrary constant.

Here we want to find the displacement after 3 seconds. The position at t = 0 is

$x(0)=0^3-0+0+C=C$

While the position after t = 3 s is

$x(3)=3^3-3(3)^2+24(3)+C=72+C$

Therefore, the displacement of the car in 3 seconds is

$d=x(3)-x(0)=72+C-C=72$

A motorist driving at 25 meters/second decelerates to

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Work done = 0.5*m*[(v2)^2 - (v1)^2]
where m is mass,
v2 and v1 are the velocities.

Given that m = 1.50 x 10^3 kg, v2 = -15 m/s (decelerates), v1 = 25 kg,

Work done = 0.5 * 1.50 x 10^3 * ((-15)^2 - 25^2) = 3 x 10^5 joules

Just ignore the negative value for the final result because work is a scalar quantity.

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

$\beta = 41.68°$

Explanation:

according to snell's law

$\frac{n_w}{n_g} = \frac{sin\alpha}{sin30 }$

refractive index of water n_w is 1.33

refractive index of glass n_g is 1.5

$sin\alpha = \frac{n_w}{n_g}* sin30$

$sin\alpha = 0.443$

now applying snell's law between air and glass, so we have

$\frac{n_g}{n_a} = \frac{sin\alpha}{sin\beta}$

$sin\beta = \frac{n_g}{n_a} sin\alpha$

$\beta = sin^{-1} [\frac{n_g}{n_a}*sin\alpha]$

we know that $sin\alpha = 0.443$

$\beta = 41.68°$
