A car going initially with a velocity 13.5 m/s accelerates at a rate of 1.9 m/s for 6.2 s. It then accelerates at a rate of-1.2

m/s until it stops. a)Find the car's maximum speed. b) Find the total time from the start of the first acceleration until the car is stopped. c) What is the total distance the car travelled?

Answer:

a) Maximum speed = 25.28 m/s

b) Total time = 27.26 s

c) Total distance traveled = 390,5537

Explanation:

In order to solve the first proble we just have to use the next formula:

Vf= Vo+ Acc-t\\Vf= 13,5 + 6,2*1,9\\Vf=25,28 m/s\\

So the maximum speed would be 25,28 m/s.

THe total time of the trip will be given by adding the inital time plus the velocity divided by the acceleration rate:

Time= 6,2 s+ \frac{25,28}{-1,2} \\Time= 6,2 +21,06\\Time= 27,26

Remember that when dealing with time in physics you will always use positive numbers since there is no negative time.

To calculate the total distance covered we use the next formula:

D=Vo*t+ 1/2a*t^2\\D= 13,5*6,2 + 1/2(1,9)(6,2)^2\\D=87,75+36,518\\D=124,268m

This is the first part now we calculate it with the stopping of the car:

D=Vo*t+ 1/2a*t^2\\D=25,28*21,06+ 1/2(-1,2)(21,06)^2\\D=532,3968-266,1141\\D= 266,2857meters

No we just add the two distances to discover the whole distance:

Total distance= 124,268+266,2857= 390,5537

Answer:

a) Maximum speed = 25.28 m/s

b) Total time = 27.27 s

c) Total distance traveled = 402.43 m

Explanation:

a) Maximum speed is obtained after the end of acceleration

        v = u + at

        v = 13.5 + 1.9 x 6.2 = 25.28 m/s

    Maximum speed = 25.28 m/s

b) We have maximum speed = 25.28 m/s, then it decelerates 1.2 m/s² until it stops.

         v = u + at  

         0 = 25.28 - 1.2 t

         t = 21.07 s

    Total time = 6.2 + 21.07 = 27.27 s

c) Distance traveled for the first 6.2 s

          s = ut + 0.5 at²

          s = 13.5 x 6.2 + 0.5 x 1.9 x 6.2² = 120.22 m

   Distance traveled for the second 21.07 s

          s = ut + 0.5 at²

          s = 25.28 x 21.07 - 0.5 x 1.2 x 21.07² = 282.21 m

   Total distance traveled = 120.22 + 282.21 = 402.43 m

seropon [69]

Answer

22.5 m/s

Explanation

We shall use the trigonometric ratio cosine to find the horizontal component.

cos = adjacent/hypotenuse

Adjacent is the horizontal and hypotenuse is the fly speed.

cos 30° = horizontal / 26

horizontal velocity = 26 × cos 30°

                                = 26 × 0.866

                                = 22.5166

                                 = 22.5 m/s

8. How is the crystal size different for extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks?
eduard
<span>Igneous rocks which form by the crystallization of magma at a depth within the Earth are called intrusive rocks. Intrusive rocks are characterized by large crystal sizes, i.e., their visual appearance shows individual crystals interlocked together to form the rock mass.  hope that helped</span>

No spacecraft has been built yet that was able to absorb harmful
radiations in space, change weather conditions on Earth, or destroy
meteors and comets which might strike Earth.

We should continue to send robotic spacecrafts into space
because they help discard some myths about objects in space. 
In other words, they help us learn things that we never knew before.
