You’re driving your car towards an intersection. A Porsche is stopped at the red light. You’re traveling at 36 km/h (10 m/s). As

34kurt

Your position at time $t$ , relative to the stop line:

$x_1=-15\,\mathrm m+\left(10\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t$

The Porsche's position:

$x_2=\dfrac12\left(3\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2$

a. You pass the Porsche immediately after the time it takes for $x_1=x_2$ :

$-15\,\mathrm m+\left(10\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t=\dfrac12\left(3\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2\implies t=2.3\,\rm s$

at which point you both will have traveled 7.8 m from the stop line.

b. The equation in part (a) has two solutions. The Porsche passes you at the second solution of about $t=4.4\,\rm s$ , at which point you both will have traveled 29 m.

c. At time $t$ , the Porsche is moving at velocity

$v=\left(3\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t$

so that at the moment it passes you, its speed is 13 m/s, which is about 46.8 km/h and below the speed limit, so neither of you will be pulled over.

A body is thrown vertically upward. Its velocity keep on decreasing. What happens to its kinetic energy when it reaches the maxi

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

When a body is thrown upwards, its velocity decreases. This is because the kinetic energy gradually changes into potential energy. At the highest point, the velocity becomes zero since the kinetic energy gets completely converted into potential energy.
