A swimmer swims faster and increases from 80.1m/s to 80.3 m/s during the last 20 seconds. What is the Final Velocity?

Physics

Maurinko [17]2 years ago

Answer:

0.01 m/s^2.

Explanation:

The formula for acceleration is Δ velocity/ Δ time or change in velocity/change in time. We can see find the change in velocity by subtracting v0 (initial velocity) from v (current velocity). v - v0 = 80.3 m/s - 80.1 m/s = 0.2 m/s. The change in time is already given, 20 seconds, so all you have to do is divide 0.2 m/s by 20 seconds to get 0.01 m/s^2.

A light plane must reach a speed of 33 m/s per take off. How long a runway is needed if the constant acceleration is 3.0 m/s^2.
aleksley [76]
Given the final velocity (Vf) and the acceleration (a), the distance that should be traveled by the plane is calculated through the equation,
                            d = (Vf² - Vi²) / 2a
V1 should be zero because the light plane started the motion from rest. Substituting the given values,
                          d = ((33 m/s)² - 0)) / 2(3 m/s²)
The distance is therefore equal to 181.5 meters.

An apple weighs 1.00 N. When you hang it from the end of a long spring of force constant 1.50 N/m and negligible mass, it bounce
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

2.67 m

Explanation:

k = Spring constant = 1.5 N/m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

l = Unstretched length

Frequency of SHM motion is given by

f_s=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}

Frequency of pendulum is given by

f_p=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}}

Given in the question

f_p=\dfrac{1}{2}f_s

\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{g}{l}=\dfrac{1}{4}\dfrac{k}{m}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{4gm}{k}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{4\times 9.81\times \dfrac{1}{9.81}}{1.5}\\\Rightarrow l=2.67\ m

The unstretched length of the spring is 2.67 m

Coming to the bottom of a mountain, a skier moving with speed v collides with a barrier and is brought to a stop in an amount of
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Impulse of a force is measured by force x time or F X t

Impulse also equals change in momentum or

F x t = m v₂ - m v₁

The given case is as follows

in the first case

F x t = mv - o = mv

F = mv / t

in the second case

F₁ x 4 t = mv

F₁ = 1/4 x mv /t

F₁ = F / 4

option a) is correct .

iii )

In the last case

F₂ X t = m v/2 -0

F₂ = 1/2 x mv / t

= 1/2 x F

F₂ = F/2

Option e ) is correct.

A car speed off around a bend at a constant 10m/s explain why it's velocity is not constant
VARVARA [1.3K]
It's velocity is not constant as direction is changing.
 
We know, velocity is speed with direction, so if direction is changing, velocity can't be constant, doesn't matter that speed is constant.

Hope this helps!
