Answer:

0.66 m/s²

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (u) = 0

Final velocity (v) = 5.4 m/s

Time (t) = 8.2 secs

Acceleration (a) =....?

The acceleration of the dog can be obtained as follow:

v = u + at

5.4 = 0 + a × 8.2

5.4 = 8.2a

Divide both side 8.2

a = 5.4/8.2

a = 0.66 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the dog is 0.66 m/s².

-- We know that the y-component of acceleration is the derivative of the
y-component of velocity.

-- We know that the y-component of velocity is the derivative of the
y-component of position.

-- We're given the y-component of position as a function of time.

So, finding the velocity and acceleration is simply a matter of differentiating
the position function ... twice.

Now, the position function may look big and ugly in the picture.  But with the
exception of  't' , everything else in the formula is constants, so we don't even
need any fancy processes of differentiation.  The toughest part of this is going
to be trying to write it out, given the text-formatting capabilities of the wonderful
envelope-pushing website we're working on here.

From the picture . . . . . y (t) = (1/2) (a₀ - g) t² - (a₀ / 30t₀⁴ ) t⁶

First derivative . . . y' (t) = (a₀ - g) t  -  6 (a₀ / 30t₀⁴ ) t⁵  =  (a₀ - g) t  -  (a₀ / 5t₀⁴ ) t⁵

There's your velocity . . . /\ .

Second derivative . . . y'' (t) = (a₀ - g) -  5 (a₀ / 5t₀⁴ ) t⁴ = (a₀ - g) -  (a₀ /t₀⁴ ) t⁴

and there's your acceleration . . . /\ .
That's the one you're supposed to graph.

a₀ is the acceleration due to the model rocket engine thrust
     combined with the mass of the model rocket
'g' is the acceleration of gravity ... 9.8 m/s² or 32.2 ft/sec²
t₀  is how long the model rocket engine burns

Pick, or look up, some reasonable figures for a₀ and t₀
and you're in business.

The big name in model rocketry is Estes.  Their website will give you
all the real numbers for thrust and burn-time of their engines, if you
want to follow it that far.

Gwar [14]

<u>Answer:</u>

For 1: The correct option is Option C.

For 3: The final velocity of the opponent is 1m/s

<u>Explanation: </u>

During collision, the energy and momentum remains conserved. The equation for the conservation of momentum follows:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2      ...(1)

where,

m_1,u_1\text{ and }v_1 are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of first object

m_2,u_2\text{ and }v_2 are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of second object

<u>For 1:</u>

We are Given:

m_1=150g=0.15kg\\u_1=?m/s\\v_1=0.85m/s\\m_2=3500g=3.5kg\\u_2=0m/s\\v_2=0.85m/s

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

(0.15\times u_1)+(3.5\times 0)=(3.5+0.15)\times 0.85\\\\u_1=20.683\approx 21m/s

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

  • <u>For 2: </u>

Impulse is defined as the product of force applied on an object and time taken by the object.

Mathematically,

J=F\times t

where,

F = force applied on the object

t = time taken

J = impulse on that object

Impulse depends only on the force and time taken by the object and not dependent on the surface which is stopping the object.

Hence, the impulse remains the same.

  • <u>For 3:</u>

Let the speed in right direction be positive and left direction be negative.

We are Given:

m_1=240kg\\u_1=0m/s\\v_1=-1m/s\\m_2=80kg\\u_2=-2m/s\\v_2=?m/s

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

(240\times 0)+(80\times (-2))=(240\times (-1))+(80\times v_2)\\\\v_2=1m/s

Hence, the final velocity of the opponent is 1m/s and has moved backwards to its direction of the initial velocity.

The car has a constant deceleration of 4.20 m/s^2. If its initial velocity was 24.0 m/s, how long does it take to come to a stop
nalin [4]

Answer:

The time is 5.71 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration a= -4.20 m/s^2

Initial velocity = 24.0 m/s

We need to calculate the time

Using equation of motion

v = u+at[/tex]

Where, v = final velocity

u = inital velocity

t = time

a = acceleration

Put the value into the formula

0 =24.0 +(-4.20)\times t

t = \dfrac{-24.0}{-4.20}

t=5.71\ sec

Hence, The time is 5.71 sec.
