A 62.0 kg sprinter starts a race with an acceleration of 1.44 m/s2. If the sprinter accelerates at that rate for 30 m, and then

maintains that velocity for the remainder of the 100 m dash, what will be his time (in s) for the race

Answer:

The time taken for the race is 17.20 s.

Explanation:

It is given in the problem that a 62.0 kg sprinter starts a race with an acceleration of 1.44 meter per second square.The initial speed of the sprinter is zero as it starts from the rest.

Calculate the final speed of the sprinter.

The expression for the equation of the motion is as follows;

v^{2}-u^{2}= 2as

Here, u is the initial speed, v is the final speed, a is the acceleration and s is the distance.

Put u= 0, s=30 m and a= 1.44 ms^{-2}.

v^{2}-(0)^{2}= 2(1.44)(30)

v= 9.3 m^{-1}

Calculate time taken to cover 30 m distance.

The expression for the equation of motion is as follows;

s=ut+\frac{(1)}{2}at^2

Put u= 0, s=30 m and a= 1.44 ms^{-2}.

30=(0)t+\frac{(1)}{2}(1.44)t^2

t=6.45 s

Calculate the time taken to complete his race.

T= t+t'

Here, t is the time taken to cover 30 m distance and t' is the time taken to cover 100 m distance.

T=6.45+\frac{s'}{v}

Put s= 30 m, v= 9.3 m^{-1} and s'= 100 m.

T=6.45+\frac{(100)}{9.3}

T= 17.20 s

Therefore, the time taken for the race is 17.20 s.

A 55.0-g sample of hot metal initially at 99.5oC was added to 40.0 g of water in a Styrofoam coffee cup calorimeter. The water a
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Cp= 0.44 J/g.C

This is heat capacity of metal.

Explanation:

From energy conservation

Heat lost by metal = Heat gain by water +Heat gain by  calorimeter

Because here temperature of metal is high that is why it loose the heat.The temperature of water and  calorimeter is low that is why they gain the heat.

final temperature is T= 30.5 C

We know that sensible heat transfer given as

Q= m Cp ΔT

m=Mass

Cp=Specific heat capacity

ΔT=Temperature difference

By putting the values

55 x Cp ( 99.5 - 30.5) = 40 x 4.184 ( 30.5- 21 ) + 10 x ( 30.5 - 21)

Cp ( 99 .5- 30.5) = 30.65

Cp= 0.44 J/g.C

This is heat capacity of metal.

1. The horizontal and vertical components of a projectile's velocity are
Anni [7]

The horizontal and vertical components of a projectile's velocity are independent of each other.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The path of a projectile is determined by two components of motion. They are termed as horizontal and the vertical components. Since both components velocity are perpendicular to each other, so it can stated that they are independent of each other.

Even it can seen that when the horizontal components of velocity is constant, then there will be change in the vertical components of velocity leading to free fall projectile path.

And in the absence of gravity, there will be change in the horizontal components of velocity with zero vertical component of velocity. Thus, the horizontal and the vertical components of a projectile’s velocity are seemed to be independent of each other.
