What is the acceleration experienced by a car that takes 10s to reach 27m/s from rest

Physics
1 answer:
Lerok [7]3 years ago
5 0

|acceleration|  =  (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in the car's speed = (27 - 0) = 27 m/s
Time for the change  =  10 sec

|acceleration| = (27 m/s) / (10 s)  =  2.7 m/s² .

That's the magnitude of the car's acceleration.
We don't know anything about its direction.

An object of mass 6 kg. is resting on a horizontal surface. A horizontal force
son4ous [18]

Answer:

a) The work done by the applied force is 1500 joules.

b) The kinetic energy of the block after 10 seconds is 1200 joules.

c) The magnitude of the force of friction is 3 newtons and its direction is against motion.

d) 300 joules of energy are lost during motion.

Explanation:

a) Since the object has a constant mass, on which a constant horizontal force is exerted. The work done by the force (W), measured in joules, is defined by the following expression:

W = F\cdot \Delta x (1)

Where:

F - Force, measured in newtons.

\Delta x - Distance, measured in meters.

If we know that F = 15\,N and \Delta x = 100\,m, then the work done by the force exerted on the object is:

W = (15\,N)\cdot (100\,m)

W = 1500\,J

The work done by the applied force is 1500 joules.

b) At first we need to calculate the net acceleration of the object (a), measured in meters per square second. By assuming a constant acceleration, we use the following kinematic formula:

\Delta x = v_{o}\cdot t +\frac{1}{2}\cdot a\cdot t^{2} (2)

Where v_{o} is the initial velocity of the object, measured in meters per second.

We clear the acceleration within the equation above:

\frac{1}{2}\cdot a \cdot t^{2} =  \Delta x-v_{o}\cdot t

a = \frac{2\cdot (\Delta x - v_{o}\cdot t)}{t^{2}}

If we know that \Delta x = 100\,m, v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s} and t = 10\,s, then the net acceleration experimented by the object is:

a = \frac{2\cdot \left[100\,m-\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (10\,s)\right]}{(10\,s)^{2}}

a = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

By the 2nd Newton's Law, we construct the following equation of equilibrium under the consideration of a friction force acting against the motion of the object:

\Sigma F = F - f = m\cdot a (3)

Where:

F - External force exerted on the object, measured in newtons.

f - Kinetic friction force, measured in newtons.

If we know that F = 15\,N, m = 6\,kg and a = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, the kinetic friction force is:

f = F-m\cdot a

f = 15\,N-(6\,kg)\cdot \left(2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)

f = 3\,N

The work done by friction (W'), measured in joules, is:

W' = f\cdot \Delta x (4)

W' = (3\,N) \cdot (100\,m)

W' = 300\,J

And the net work experimented by the object is:

\Delta W = 1500\,J - 300\,J

\Delta W = 1200\,J

By the Work-Energy Theorem we understand that change in translational kinetic energy (\Delta K), measured in joules, is equal to the change in net work. That is:

\Delta K = \Delta W (5)

If we know that \Delta W = 1200\,J, then the change in translational kinetic energy is:

\Delta K = 1200\,J

The kinetic energy of the block after 10 seconds is 1200 joules.

c) The magnitude of the force of friction is 3 newtons and its direction is against motion.

d) The energy lost by the object is equal to the work done by the force of friction. Therefore, 300 joules of energy are lost during motion.

How know that rocks formed from the seafloor sediments deposited in the Amadeus basin were softer than the arkose sandstone
svp [43]
The rocks formed from the seafloor sediments deposited in the Amadeus basin were softer than the Arkose sandstone because the Amadeus basin were made up of marine and non-marine sedimentary rocks which are softer compared to quarts which make up mostly the Arkose sandstone.

A truck traveled 400 meters north in 80 seconds and then it traveled 300 meters east in 70 seconds. The magnitude of the average
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

3.3m/s

Explanation:

You first get the total time (80 + 70 = 150s).

Then you would find the displacement of the truck. To do that you would do component method (vector addition), so since its a right triangle (North and East), displacement is 400^2 + 300^2 = d^2.

d= 500m.

So now that you have displacement and time, you can find the velocity:

v=d/t

v=500/150

v=3.3

A 1.50 3 103 - kg car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly to 18.0 m/s in 12.0 s. Assume that air resistance remains const
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

let force exerted by engine be F.Net force =( F-400)N, applying newton law

     F-400 = 1.5 x 10³x18 =27000 ,

F = 27400 N.

velocity after 12 s  = 0 + 18 x 12 = 216 m/s

Average velocity = (0 + 216 )/2 = 108 m/s

Average power = force x average velocity = 27400 x 108 = 29.6 10⁵ W .⁶

b) At 12 s , velocity = 216 m/s

Instantaneous power = velocity x force = 216 x 27400 = 59.2 x 10⁶ W.
