What variables affect the acceleration of an object and in what manner do they affect the acceleration?

1 answer:

4 0

Acceleration, in physics, is the rate of change of velocity of an object. An object's acceleration is the net result of any and all forces acting on the object, as described by Newton's Second Law.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Part a)

$T = 0.81 s$

Part b)

$v_x = 3.33 m/s$

Part c)

$v_y = 3.91 m/s$

Part d)

$\theta = 49.55 degree$

Part e)

$T = 1.11 s$

Explanation:

Part a)

initial vertical position = 1.02 m

maximum height = 1.80 m

$\Delta y = 1.80 - 1.02$

$\Delta y = 0.78 m$

$v_f^2 - v_y^2 = 2a \Delta y$

$0 - v_y^2 = 2(-9.81)(0.78)$

$v_y = 3.91 m/s$

time taken by it to reach this height

$v_y = v_i + at$

$0 = 3.91 - 9.81 t_1$

$t_1 = 0.39 s$

Now when it again touch the ground then its speed is given as

$v_f^2 - v_y^2 = 2a \Delta y$

$v_f^2 - 0 = 2(9.81)(1.80 - 0.95)$

$v_y = 4.08 m/s$

time taken by it to reach this height

$4.08 = v_i + at$

$4.08 = 0 + 9.81 t_2$

$t_2 = 0.42 s$

$T = t_1 + t_2$

$T = 0.81 s$

Part b)

Horizontal velocity

$v_x = \frac{x}{t}$

$v_x = \frac{2.70}{0.81}$

$v_x = 3.33 m/s$

Part c)

vertical velocity is the intial y direction velocity

$v_y = 3.91 m/s$

Part d)

Take off angle is given as

$tan\theta = \frac{3.91}{3.33}$

$\theta = 49.55 degree$

Part e)

initial vertical position = 1.20 m

maximum height = 2.50 m

$\Delta y = 2.50 - 1.20$

$\Delta y = 1.30 m$

$v_f^2 - v_y^2 = 2a \Delta y$

$0 - v_y^2 = 2(-9.81)(1.30)$

$v_y = 5.05 m/s$

time taken by it to reach this height

$v_y = v_i + at$

$0 = 5.05 - 9.81 t_1$

$t_1 = 0.51 s$

Now when it again touch the ground then its speed is given as

$v_f^2 - v_y^2 = 2a \Delta y$

$v_f^2 - 0 = 2(9.81)(2.50 - 0.72)$

$v_y = 5.9 m/s$

time taken by it to reach this height

$5.9 = v_i + at$

$5.9 = 0 + 9.81 t_2$

$t_2 = 0.60 s$

$T = t_1 + t_2$

$T = 1.11 s$
