At t=0, a train approaching a station begins decelerating from a speed of 80 mi/hr according to the acceleration function a(t)=−

1280(1+8t)^−3, where t≥0 is measured in hours. How far does the train travel? a. Between t=0 and t=0.2 b. Between t=0.2 and t=0.4 The units of acceleration are mi/hr^2.

Answer:

a)  Δx = 49.23 mi , b)  Δx = 5.77 mi

Explanation:

As we have an acceleration function we must use the definition of kinematics

     a = dv / dt

     ∫dv = ∫ a dt

we integrate and evaluators

      v - vo = ∫ (-1280 (1 + 8t)⁻³ dt = -1280 ∫ (1+ 8t)⁻³ dt

We change variables

       1+ 8t = u

       8 dt = du

       v - v₀ = -1280 ∫ u⁻³ du / 8

       v -v₀ = -1280 / 8 (-u⁻²/2)

       v - v₀ = 80 (1+ 8t)⁻²

We evaluate between the initial t = 0 v₀ = 80 and the final instant t and v

      v- 80 = 80 [(1 + 8t)⁻² - 1]

      v = 80 (1+ 8t)⁻²

We repeat the process for defining speed is

     v = dx / dt

    dx = vdt

    x-x₀ = 80 ∫ (1-8t)⁻² dt

    x-x₀ = 80 ∫ u⁻² dt / 8

    x-x₀ = 80 (-1 / u)

    x-x₀ = -80 (1 / (1 + 8t))

We evaluate for t = 0 and x₀ and the upper point t and x

   x -x₀ = -80 [1 / (1 + 8t) - 1]

We already have the function of time displacement

a) let's calculate the position at the two points and be

t = 0 h

     x = x₀

t = 0.2 h

    x-x₀ = -80 [1 / (1 +8 02) -1]

    x-x₀ = 49.23

displacement is

  Δx = x (0.2) - x (0)

   Δx = 49.23 mi

b) in the interval t = 0.2 h at t = 0.4 h

t = 0.4h

     x- x₀ = -80 [1 / (1+ 8 0.4) -1]

     x-x₀ = 55 mi

    Δx = x (0.4) - x (0.2)

     Δx = 55 - 49.23

     Δx = 5.77 mi

☆ Correct and rewrite the following statements:
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

<h3>e)</h3><h3><u>Question</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • Electroplating is based on magnetic effect of electricity.
<h3><u>Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • <em>It's</em><em> </em><em>incorrect</em><em> </em><em>sentence</em><em> </em>
  • As we know that, while electroplating there are two rods, one becoming cathode and another one becoming anode. During electroplating, when electricity is given through the rods, the anode produces positive ions which gets received at the cathode rod and negative ions produced at cathode collects at anode rod which results to the plating of the desired substance. Here, it is a chemical effect of electricity resulting to plating.

<u>So correct sentence is:</u>

  • <em>Electroplating</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>based</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>chemical</em><em> </em><em>effect</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>electricity</em><em>.</em><em> </em>

<h3>f)</h3><h3><u>Question</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • An electric bulb glows due to the chemical effect of electricity.
<h3><u>Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • <em>It's</em><em> </em><em>incorrect</em><em> </em><em>sentence</em><em> </em>
  • As we know that, in an electric bulb there is a filament. When electricity is given in that filament of the electric bulb, the filament gets intensely heated up and results to the emission of light. Due to this heating of the filament due to electricity the electric bulb glows.

<u>So correct sentence is:</u>

  • <em>A</em><em>n electric bulb glows due to the </em><em>h</em><em>e</em><em>a</em><em>t</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>g</em><em> </em><em>effect of electricity.</em>

When an object in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, its____________ is also at a maximum.
Ivan

When an object in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, its <u>acceleration</u> is also at a maximum.

<u><em>Reason</em></u><em>: The speed is zero when the simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, however, the acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. The velocity reverses the direction at that point therefore its rate of change is maximum at that moment. thus the acceleration is at its maximum at this point</em>
