A football wide receiver rushes 16 m straight down the playing field in 2.9 s (in the positive direction). He is then hit and pu

shed 2.5 m straight backwards in 1.65 s. He breaks the tackle and runs straight forward another 24 m in 5.2 s.
Part (a) Calculate the wide receiver's average velocity in the horizontal direction during the first interval, in meters per second.

Part (b) Calculate the wide receiver's average velocity in the horizontal direction during the second interval, in meters per second.

Part (c) Calculate the wide receiver's average velocity in the horizontal direction during the third interval, in meters per second.

Part (d) Calculate the wide receiver's average velocity in the horizontal direction for the entire motion, in meters per second

Answer:

a) v1 = 5.52m/s

b) v2 = -1.52m/s

c) v3 = 4.62m/s

d) vt = 3.85m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of the football wide receiver is his displacement per unit time.

Velocity v = (displacement d)/time t

v = d/t .....1

For each of the cases, equation 1 would be used to calculate the velocity.

a) v1 = d1/t1

d1= 16m

t1 = 2.9s

v1 = 16m/2.9s

v1 = 5.52m/s

b) v2 = d2/t2

d2 = -2.5m

t2 = 1.65s

v2 = -2.5/1.65

v2 = -1.52m/s

c) v3 = d3/t3

d3 = 24m

t3 = 5.2s

v3 = 24/5.2

v3 = 4.62m/s

d) vt = dt/tt

dt = 16m - 2.5m + 24m = 37.5m

tt = 2.9 + 1.65 + 5.2 = 9.75s

vt = 37.5/9.75

vt = 3.85m/s

A pickup truck is being driven down the highway carrying eight 100 gallon fish tank full of water. A hole is punctured in each t
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

The velocity of the vehicle would increase because the the tanks (when filled with water) must have exerted a force which would reduce the velocity of the vehicle at a certain pressure on the gas pedal. Note that force equals mass multiplied by acceleration; as the mass decreases, so the force decreases. Thus, when the mass exerted by this tanks (on the vehicle) decrease as a result of the hole punctured in them, the force exerted by the tanks would also decrease causing an increase in velocity of the pick up truck when the same pressure is applied on the gas pedal throughout (before and after the puncture).

The conservation law that applied here is the law of conservation of energy which states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another. This is because the energy the vehicle used in carrying the load (the tanks) was transformed to the energy that resulted in increasing  it's velocity (no new energy was formed as the pressure on the gas pedal remained the same).
