Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity

when velocity increases its acceleration

and when the velocity decreases its called decelaration

the formula to calculate acceleration is as follows

a = \frac{v-u}{t}

where

a - acceleration

v - final velocity

u - initial velocity

t - time taken


1. airplane starting at rest means initial velocity - 0 m/s

final velocity - 80 m/s

time - 20 s

substituting the values in the equation

a = (80 m/s - 0 m/s) / 20 s = 80 / 20 = 4 m/s²

the acceleration is 4 m/s² north


2. cyclist starts at rest so initial velocity - 0 m/s

time - 20 s

acceleration - 0.5 m/s²

substituting values in the equation

0.5 m/s² = (v - 0 m/s)/ 20 s

0.5 = v / 20 s

v = 0.5 x 20 = 10 m/s


final velocity is 10 m/s south

According to the formula you have given us to work with . . .

1). The airplane's acceleration is

(80 m/s north - zero) / (20 sec) = 4 m/sec^2 north

2).  For the cyclist:

                                          (V-final - zero) / 20sec = 0.5 m/s^2 south

Multiply each side by 20s :  V-final = 0.5 m/s^2 south x (20sec) = 

                                                                                         10 m/s south

If a seismic wave has a period of 0.0202s, find the frequency of the wave.
maw [93]

Answer:

49.5 Hz.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Period (T) = 0.0202 s

Frequency (f) =?

The frequency and period of a wave are related according to the following equation:

Frequency (f) = 1 / period (T)

f = 1/T

With the above formula, we can obtain the frequency of the wave as follow:

Period (T) = 0.0202 s

Frequency (f) =?

f = 1/T

f = 1/0.0202

f = 49.5 Hz

Therefore the frequency of the wave is 49.5 Hz.

A delivery truck travels 2.8 km North, 1.0 km East, and 1.6 km South. The final displacement from the origin is ___km to the ___
34kurt

Answer:

The final displacement from the origin is <u>1.6</u> km to the <u>NE</u>

Explanation:

The directions in which the delivery truck travels are;

1) 2.8 km North = 2.8·\hat j, in vector form

2) 1.0 km East = 1.0·\hat i, in vector form

3) 1.6 km South = -1.6·\hat j, in vector form

Therefore, to find the final displacement, Δx, of the delivery truck, we add the individual displacements as follows;

Final displacement, Δd = 2.8·\hat j + 1.0·\hat i +(-1.6·\hat j) = 1.2·\hat j + 1.0·\hat i

Final displacement, = 1.0·\hat i + 1.2·\hat j

Where;

Δx = The displacement in the x-direction = 1.0·\hat i

Δy = The displacement in the y-direction = 1.2·\hat j

The magnitude of the resultant displacement vector is given as follows

\left | d \right | = √((Δx)² + (Δy)²) = √(1² + 1.2²) ≈ 1.6 (To the nearest tenth)

The magnitude of the resultant displacement vector ≈ 1.6 km

The direction of the resultant vector is positive for both the east and north direction, therefore, the direction of the resultant vector = NE

Therefore, the resultant displacement of the delivery truck is approximately 1.6 km, NE from the origin.
