Answer:

40 ms¯².

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we shall illustrate the question with a diagram.

The attached photo gives a better understanding of the question.

From the attached photo:

Velocity (v) = 160 ms¯¹

Time (t) = 4 secs.

Acceleration (a) =?

Acceleration (a) = Velocity (v) /time (t)

a = v/t

a = 160/4

a = 40 ms¯²

Therefore, the initial acceleration of the rocket is 40 ms¯².

To lift a load of 100 kg a distance of 1 m an effort of 25 kg must be applied over an inclined plane of length 4 m. What must be
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Work = force * distance.
We must produce twice as much energy as we are lifting the weight twice as high.
But we are not increasing the force so we must increase the length of the ramp ( distance ) instead.
The new length will be twice as great as the previous length.
So 8 metres is required. 


25 kg * 8 m = work = 100 kg * 2 m

A particle moving in simple harmonic motion with a period T = 1.5 s passes through the equilibrium point at time t0 = 0 with a v
ch4aika [34]

Answer

given,

Time period= T = 1.5 s

If it's moving through equilibrium point at t₀= 0 with v = 1.0 m/s

v_max=1.00 m/s

we know,

v_ max=A ω  

v = A sin (ωt)

-0.50= -1.00 sin (ωt)

sin (ωt)  =  0.5

\omega t = sin^{-1}(0.5)

\dfrac{2\pi}{T}\times t =0.524

\dfrac{2\pi}{1.5}\times t =0.524

t = 0.125 s

we have time period T=1.5 it is the time to complete one oscillation

means from eq to right,then left,then eq,then left,then from right to eq

time taken for left = t/4 = 0.125/4 = 0.375 s

smallest value of time

=0.375 + 0.125

= 0.50 sec
