Answer:
12.0 meters
Explanation:
Given:
v₀ = 0 m/s
a₁ = 0.281 m/s²
t₁ = 5.44 s
a₂ = 1.43 m/s²
t₂ = 2.42 s
Find: x
First, find the velocity reached at the end of the first acceleration.
v = at + v₀
v = (0.281 m/s²) (5.44 s) + 0 m/s
v = 1.53 m/s
Next, find the position reached at the end of the first acceleration.
x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²
x = 0 m + (0 m/s) (5.44 s) + ½ (0.281 m/s²) (5.44 s)²
x = 4.16 m
Finally, find the position reached at the end of the second acceleration.
x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²
x = 4.16 m + (1.53 m/s) (2.42 s) + ½ (1.43 m/s²) (2.42 s)²
x = 12.0 m
This problem is a piece o' cake, IF you know the formulas for both kinetic energy and momentum. So here they are:
Kinetic energy = (1/2) · (mass) · (speed²)
Momentum = (mass) · (speed)
So, now ... We know that
==> mass = 15 kg, and
==> kinetic energy = 30 Joules
Take those pieces of info and pluggum into the formula for kinetic energy:
Kinetic energy = (1/2) · (mass) · (speed²)
30 Joules = (1/2) · (15 kg) · (speed²)
60 Joules = (15 kg) · (speed²)
4 m²/s² = speed²
Speed = 2 m/s
THAT's all you need ! Now you can find momentum:
Momentum = (mass) · (speed)
Momentum = (15 kg) · (2 m/s)
<em>Momentum = 30 kg·m/s</em>
<em>(Notice that in this problem, although their units are different, the magnitude of the KE is equal to the magnitude of the momentum. When I saw this, I wondered whether that's always true. So I did a little more work, and I found out that it isn't ... it's a coincidence that's true for this problem and some others, but it's usually not true.)</em>
According to my examination I have confirmed that I do NOT repeat do NOT know this .
the answer is a: galaxies. galaxy clusters are groups of galaxies that like to hang out together out there in space. the milky way's own galaxy cluster is called the local group.
