A car initially rolling at 12 m/s comes to a stop in 20 seconds. Assuming the car has uniform acceleration, how far does it trav

el during this time interval?

As the car comes to rest it’s final velocity v will be 0
So our information g is
u = 12 m /s
t = 20s
v = 0

So acceleration is v-u/t
So 0-12/20
= -12/20
= -0.6 m / s^2

S= ut + 1/2 at^2
S = 12 x 20 + 1/2 x -12/20 x 400
S= 240 - 120
S = 120

It travels 120 m during the time interval.

A spring with a spring constant kk of 100 pounds per foot is loaded with 1-pound weight and brought to equilibrium. it is then s
tino4ka555 [31]

Given:

k = 100 lb/ft, m = 1 lb / (32.2 ft/s) = 0.03106 slugs 

Solution:


F = -kx 
mx" = -kx 
x" + (k/m)x = 0 

characteristic equation: 
r^2 + k/m = 0 
r = i*sqrt(k/m) 

x = Asin(sqrt(k/m)t) + Bcos(sqrt(k/m)t) 

ω = sqrt(k/m) 
2π/T = sqrt(k/m) 
T = 2π*sqrt(m/k) 
T = 2π*sqrt(0.03106 slugs / 100 lb/ft) 
T = 0.1107 s (period) 

x(0) = 1/12 ft = 0.08333 ft 
x'(0) = 0 

1/12 = Asin(0) + Bcos(0) 
B = 1/12 = 0.08333 ft 

x' = Aω*cos(ωt) - Bω*sin(ωt) 
0 = Aω*cos(0) - (1/12)ω*sin(0) 
0 = Aω 
A = 0 

So B would be the amplitude. Therefore, the equation of motion would be x = 0.08333*cos[(2π/0.1107)t]

A 74-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.56 m,
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Work done, W = 1.44 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of boy, m = 74 kg

Initial speed of boy, u = 1.6 m/s

The boy then drops through a height of 1.56 m

Final speed of boy, v = 8.5 m/s

To find,

Non-conservative work was done on the boy.

Solution,

The work done by the non conservative forces is equal to the sum of total change in kinetic energy and total change in potential energy.

W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)+(0-mgh)

W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)-mgh

W=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 74\times (8.5^2-1.6^2)-74\times 9.8\times 1.56

W = 1447.21 Joules

or

W = 1.44 kJ

Therefore, the non conservative work done on the boy is 1.44 kJ.

Metal sphere 1 has a positive charge of 7.00 nc . metal sphere 2, which is twice the diameter of sphere 1, is initially uncharge
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

2.33 nC, 4.67 nC

Explanation:

when the two spheres are connected through the wire, the total charge (Q=7.00 nC) re-distribute to the two sphere in such a way that the two spheres are at same potential:

V_1 = V_2 (1)

Keeping in mind the relationship between charge, voltage and capacitance:

C=\frac{Q}{V}

we can re-write (1) as

\frac{Q_1}{C_1}=\frac{Q_2}{C_2} (2)

where:

Q1, Q2 are the charges on the two spheres

C1, C2 are the capacitances of the two spheres

The capacitance of a sphere is given by

C=4 \pi \epsilon_0 R

where R is the radius of the sphere. Substituting this into (2), we find

\frac{Q_1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 R_1}=\frac{Q_2}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 R_2} (3)

we also know that sphere 2 has twice the diameter of sphere 1, so the radius of sphere 2 is twice the radius of sphere 1:

R_2 = 2R_1

So the eq.(3) becomes

\frac{Q_1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 R_1}=\frac{Q_2}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 2R_1}

And re-arranging it we find:

Q_2 = 2Q_1

And since we know that the total charge is

Q_1 + Q_2 = 7.00 nC

we find

Q_1 = 2.33 nC\\Q_2 = 4.67 nC

Which formula can be used to find the tangential speed of an orbiting object?
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer: A.) v = 2πr/T

Explanation:

The tangential speed of an orbiting object can be obtained by the product of the radius of the orbit and the angular speed of the object in a circular motion.

This the tangential seed can be represented mathematically as :

Tangential speed (v) = angular speed(ω) × radius(r)

v = r × ω --------(1)

Recall:

ω = 2π/T

Substituting ω = 2π/T in equation (1)

v = r × 2π/T

v = 2πr/T
