consider the motion along the X-direction

X = horizontal displacement = 80 m

V_{ox} = initial velocity along the x-direction = v Cos60

t = time of travel

using the equation

X = V_{ox}   t

80 = (v Cos60) (t)

t = 160/v                                         eq-1


consider the motion in vertical direction :

Y = vertical displacement = 20 m

V_{oy}  = initial velocity in Y-direction = v Sin60

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time of travel = 160/v

using the equation

Y = V_{oy}  t + (0.5) a t²

20 = (v Sin60) (160/v) + (0.5) (- 9.8) (160/v)²

v = 32.5 m/s

what is the initial velocity of a go-kart traveling at a uniform acceleration of 0.5 m/s^2 for 5s as it slows down to a stop?​
timurjin [86]

The initial velocity of go-kart is 2.5 m/s.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Here, the uniform acceleration of go-kart is given as 0.5 m/s². Also the time required by it to stop is also given as 5 s. As acceleration is the measure of change in velocity per unit time.

In this case, the velocity should be changed from a value to zero to come to rest. So the initial velocity will be positive value and final velocity is zero.

As we know the values of acceleration, final velocity and time, the initial velocity can be easily determined as follows.

Acceleration = \frac{Final velocity -Initial velocity}{Time}

Since, final velocity is zero, acceleration is 0.5 m/s² and time is 5 s, then,

        -0.5=\frac{-\text {Initial velocity}}{5}

        Initial velocity = 0.5 × 5 = 2.5 m/s.

So the initial velocity of go-kart is 2.5 m/s.

Describe two possibilities of what will happen to the universe in the future.
shutvik [7]
In our current view of the Universe there are 2 possible futures. One possiblity is that the Universe will come to an end in the opposite of a Big Bang called The Big Crunch. The other possibility is that we live in an Eternal Universe that will never come to end.

i hope this helps :)

Is calculating the change of velocity the same as calculating acceleration? ​
koban [17]

Answer:

Yes! Thinking about it graphically a position vs time graph models meters per second in most cases, making every point on the line have the units m/s. If we want the find the slope we are finding the change between each point and those units would change to m/s/s or m/s^2 giving us the same units for acceleration. Simply put, slope of a velocity graph gives us acceleration.

A circular coil of radius 5.0 cm and resistance 0.20 Ω is placed in a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the c
Romashka [77]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Assume number of turn is

N= 1

Radius of coil is.

r = 5cm = 0.05m

Then, Area of the surface is given as

A = πr² = π × 0.05²

A = 7.85 × 10^-3 m²

Resistance of

R = 0.20 Ω

The magnetic field is a function of time

B = 0.50exp(-20t) T

Magnitude of induce current at

t = 2s

We need to find the induced emf

This induced voltage, ε can be quantified by:

ε = −NdΦ/dt

Φ = BAcosθ, but θ = 90°, they are perpendicular

So, Φ = BA

ε = −NdΦ/dt = −N d(BA) / dt

A is a constant

ε = −NA dB/dt

Then, B = 0.50exp(-20t)

So, dB/dt = 0.5 × -20 exp(-20t)

dB/dt = -10exp(-20t)

So,

ε = −NA dB/dt

ε = −NA × -10exp(-20t)

ε = 10 × NA exp(-20t)

Now from ohms law, ε = iR

So, I = ε / R

I = 10 × NA exp(-20t) / R

Substituting the values given

I = 10×1× 7.85 ×10^-3×exp(-20×2)/0.2

I = 1.67 × 10^-18 A
