Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant

(and quite modest) acceleration. A train travels through a congested part of town at 7.0 m/s . Once free of this area, it speeds up to 11 m/s in 8.0 s. At the edge of town, the driver again accelerates, with the same acceleration, for another 16 s to reach a higher cruising speed. You may want to review (Pages 42 - 45) .

Answer:

19 m/s

Explanation:

The complete question requires the final speed to be calculated.

Velocity is the rate and direction at which an object moves. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit time and can be calculated by the difference in velocity over a given time.

For this question, first the unknown acceleration must be calculated and used to determine the final velocity

Step 1: Calculate the acceleration

a=\frac{v_{2}-v{1}}{t_{1}}

a=\frac{11-7}{8}

a=\frac{4}{8}

a=0.5 m/s^{2}

Step 2: Calculate the velocity using the acceleration calculated above

a=\frac{v_{3}-v{2}}{t_{2}}

0.5=\frac{v_{3}-11}{16}

v_{3}=19 m/s

The angular velocity of the propeller is 136.1 rad/s; linear velocity is 153.1 m/s; centripetal acceleration 20835.2 m/s² and 2123.8 g.

<h3>What is the angular velocity of the propeller?</h3>

The angular velocity of the propeller in rad/s is given as follows:

  • 1 rev/m = 2π/60 rad/s.

1300 rev/min = 1300 * 2π/60 = 136.1 rad/s.

b. The linear velocity, v = radius * angular velocity

Linear velocity, v = 2.25/2 * 136.1

v = 153.1 m/s

c. Centripetal acceleration, a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}

a = \frac{(153.1)^{2}}{1.125} = 20835.2\:ms^{2}

Centripetal acceleration in terms of g; g = \frac{20835.2}{9.81} = 2123.8 g

Therefore, the angular velocity of the propeller is 136.1 rad/s; linear velocity is 153.1 m/s; centripetal acceleration 20835.2 m/s² and 2123.8 g.

A rock dropped on the moon will increase it's speed from 0 m/s to 8.15 m/s in about 5 seconds what is the acceleration of the ro
Lunna [17]

Using the formula:


a = (Vf - Vi) / t


Our initial velocity is 0 m/s, and our final velocity is 8.15 m/s, with a time period of 5 seconds:


a = (8.15 - 0.0) / 5

a = 1.63 m/s^2


If you know the acceleration due to gravity on the Moon, you can confirm this answer. The recorded gravitational acceleration on the Moon is 1.62 m/s^2.
