A car starts from rest at a stop sign. It accelerates at 3.8 m/s 2 m/s2 for 6.0 s, coasts for 1.6 ss , and then slows down at a

rate of 3.3 m/s 2 m/s2 for the next stop sign.
How far apart are the stop signs?

To solve this problem we will start by calculating the distance traveled while relating the first acceleration in the given time. From that acceleration we will calculate its final speed with which we will calculate the distance traveled in the second segment. With this speed and the acceleration given, we will proceed to calculate the last leg of its route.

Expression for the first distance is

s_1 = ut +\frac{1}{2} at^2

s_1 = 0+\frac{1}{2} (3.8)(6)^2

s_1 = 68.4m

The expression for the final speed is

v = v_0 +at

v = 0+(3.8)(6)

v = 22.8m/s

Then the distance becomes as follows

s_2 = vt

s_2 = (22.8)(1.6)

s_2 = 36.48m

The expression for the distance at last sop is

v_1^2=v_0^2 +2as_3

22.8^2 = 0+2(3.3)s_3

s_3 =78.7636m

Therefore the required distance between the signs is,

S = s_1+s_2+s_3

S = 68.4+36.48+78.76

S = 183.64m

Therefore the total distance between signs is 183.54m

A car traveling at 23m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 7 seconds. What is the acceleration?
Lena [83]

The car has an initial velocity v_0 of 23 m/s and a final velocity v of 0 m/s. Recall that for constant acceleration,

v=v_0+at

The car stops in 7 s, so the acceleration is

0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}=23\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}+a(7\,\mathrm s)

\implies a\approx-3.29\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}

When the spacecraft is at the halfway point, how does the strength of the gravitional force on the spaceprobe by Earth compre wi
mixer [17]

Solution :

When the spacecraft is at halfway point, the distance from the Earth as well as Mars are same. We have to account the masses of the planets. The gravitational force that is exerted by the Earth is greater because of its combined mass with the space probe.

The mass of Earth is greater than the mass of Mars. Therefore, the force of Earth is more than Mars.
