Answer: A = y/cos32

That is the amplitude A in terms of the displacement y.

Explanation: Since the displacement in the question In the question is the same in both direction, it is a Simple Harmonic Motion problem. In s.h.m the amplitude of displacement A is related to the displacement itself y by this simple equation

y = A* cos(theta)

So, A = y/cos(theta)

A = y/cos32.

If the magnitude of the displacement y is given, you just substitute in.

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial angular velocity ω₀ = 151 x 2π / 60

= 15.8  rad /s

final velocity = 0

Angular deceleration α = 2.23 rad / s

ω² = ω₀² -  2 α θ

0 = 15.8² - 2 x 2.23 θ

= 55.99  rad

one revolution = 2π radian

55.99 radian = 55.99  / 2 π no of terns

= 9 approx .

A car is on a circular off ramp of an interstate and is traveling at exactly 25 mph around the curve. Does the car have velocity
netineya [11]

Answer:

The car has velocity and acceleration but is not decelerating

Explanation:

Since the car is traveling at 25 mph around the curve, it has a tangential velocity. This tangential velocity is constantly changing in direction (so the car could adapt to the curve and not moving forward in a straight line), there should be a centripetal acceleration in play here. This acceleration does not slow down the car so it's not decelerating.
