A car starts off at a 0mph the final velocity is 203mph and the acceleration is an AVERAGE of 2.93ft/s^2 and it is traveling up

a 6.4% slope. The curvy trail is 12.42 miles long but the question is, if the trail was a straight line from start to finish how long would it take the car to travel that distance?

A car starts off at a 0 mph, the final velocity is 203 mph and the acceleration is an average of 2.93 ft/s² and it is traveling up a 6.4% slope. If the straight line trail is 12.42 miles long, the time take the car to travel that distance is 0.075 hour = 270 s

Explanation:

Velocity is defined as the rate of change in displacement while acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. Acceleration may be positive or negative. Acceleration is positive when the velocity of the object is increases and it is negative when velocity of the object is decreases. Negative acceleration is also called deceleration.

Mathematically

a =\frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t}

Where a is the acceleration of the object, v_{f} is the final velocity of the object and v_{i} is the initial velocity of the object. t is equal to time taken.

Given data:

v_{f} = 203 miles/h

v_{i}  = 0 miles/h

a = 2.93 ft/s²

d = 12.42 miles

t = ?

As velocities and acceleration given in different units, So we need to convert to obtain same units. Here we convert unit of acceleration  from ft/s² to miles/h².

1 ft/s² = 2454.5454545455 miles/h²

2.93 ft/s² = 7191.8181818182 miles/h²

So,

a = 7191.81 miles/h²

Apply formula

a =\frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t}

t = \frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{a}

t = 203/7191.81

t₁ = 0.028 hour = 101.61 s

We use 3rd equation of motion to calculate distance cover during this time interval

2ad = v_{f}^{2} - v_{i}^{2}

2*7191.81*d = 203 - 0

d = 2.86 miles

remaining distance = 12.42 - 2.86 = 9.56 miles

Now we use

d = v*t

t = d/v

t = 9.56/203

t₂ = 0.047 hour = 169.52 s

Total time = T = t₁ + t₂

T = 0.028 + 0.047

T = 0.075 hour = 270 s

A bullet of mass 0.0021 kg initially moving at 497 m/s embeds itself in a large fixed piece of wood and travels 0.65 m before co
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The force exerted by the wood on the bullet is 399.01 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of bullet, m = 0.0021 kg

initial velocity of the bullet, u = 497 m/s

final velocity of the bullet, v = 0

distance traveled by the bullet, S = 0.65 m

Determine the acceleration of the bullet which is the deceleration.

Apply kinematic equation;

V² = U² + 2aS

0 = 497² - (2 x 0.65)a

0 = 247009 - 1.3a

1.3a = 247009

a = 247009 / 1.3

a = 190006.92 m/s²

Finally, apply Newton's second law of motion to determine the force exerted by the wood on the bullet;

F = ma

F = 0.0021 x 190006.92

F = 399.01 N

Therefore, the force exerted by the wood on the bullet is 399.01 N
