An object of mass m is initially at rest. After a force of magnitude F acts on it for a time T, the object has a speed v. Suppos

e the mass of the object is doubled, and the magnitude of the force acting on it is quadrupled.In terms of T, how long does it take for the object to accelerate from rest to a speed v now?

Answer:

It takes \frac{1}{2}T to accelerate the object from rest to the speed v.

Explanation:

From Newton's second law:

F=m\cdot a  (1)

and the definition of acceleration,

\displaystyle{a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}} (2)

we can solve this problem. Putting (2) in (1) we have:

\displaystyle{F = m\cdot \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}} and solving for \Delta t and considering the initial time as zero (t_0=0) and the initial velocity also zero (v_0=0) we have:

\displaystyle{T=\frac{mv}{F}}

Now, for a mass m^*= 2m and the F^*=4F we can wrtie the same equation:

\displaystyle{T^*=\frac{m^*v}{F^*}} and substituting m^* and F^*:

\displaystyle{T^*=\frac{2m\cdotv}{4F}=\frac{2}{4}T=\boxed{\frac{1}{2}T}}

So now, it only takes half the time to accelerate the object from rest to the speed v

The linear expansion of a material depends on which of the following?
nordsb [41]

Answer:

1. The change in temperature of the material.

2. The length of the material.

3. The type of material.

Explanation:

The term linear expansion is defined as the increase in length of any conductor when there is a change in temperature. The new length of any wire or rod is given by :

L=L_o(1+\alpha \Delta T)

L_o is the initial length of the rod

\alpha is the coefficient of linear expansion

\Delta T is the change in temperature

It is clear that the linear expansion of a material depends on :

1. The change in temperature of the material.

2. The length of the material.

3. The type of material.

So, all options are correct.

A stone is dropped into a lake, creating a circular ripple that travels outward at a speed of 50 cm/s. Find the rate at which th
Drupady [299]
The radius of the circle, in cm, after t seconds would be 50t 
The area, A, of the circle after t seconds is expressed in the equation: A = pi * r^2 
A = pi * (50T)^2 = pi*2500*t^2 
The change of area per unit time is obtained by differentiating the equation
A' = pi*2500*2*t A' = pi*5000*t
when t = 3 secondsA' = pi*5000*3 = 47122 cm2/s
