Answer:
s = 3 m
Explanation:
Let t be the time the accelerating car starts.
Let's assume the vehicles are point masses so that "passing" takes no time.
the position of the constant velocity and accelerating vehicles are
s = vt = 40(t + 2) cm
s = ½at² = ½(20)(t)² cm
they pass when their distance is the same
½(20)(t)² = 40(t + 2)
10t² = 40t + 80
0 = 10t² - 40t - 80
0 = t² - 4t - 8
t = (4±√(4² - 4(1)(-8))) / 2(1)
t = (4± 6.928) / 2 ignore the negative time as it has not occurred yet.
t = 5.464 s
s = 40(5.464 + 2) = 298.564 cm
300 cm when rounded to the single significant digit of the question numerals.
Answer:
0.108 rad/s².
Explanation:
Given that
Initial angular velocity ,ωi = 0 rad/s
Final angular velocity ωf= 0.5 rev/s
We know that
1 rev/s = 6.28 rad/s
ωf= 3.14 rad/s
t= 28.9 s
We know that (if acceleration is constant)
ωf=ωi + α t
α=Angular acceleration
3.14 = 0 + α x 28.9
Therefore the acceleration will be 0.108 rad/s².
Therefore the answer will be 0.108 rad/s².
