Consider an old-fashion bicycle with a small wheel of radius 0.17 m and a large wheel of radius 0.92 m. Suppose the rider starts

at rest, accelerates with a constant acceleration for 2.7 minutes to a velocity of magnitude 10 m/s. He maintains this velocity for 13.7 minutes and then accelerates, with a constant deceleration, for 4.1 minutes at which time he is at rest. Find the total distance traveled by the rider. Give your answer in kilometers.

Answer:

s=10.26\ km

Explanation:

Given

initial velocity of bicycle, u=0\ m.s^{-1}

velocity of the bicycle after the first phase of acceleration, v_1=10\ m.s^{-1}

duration of first phase of uniform acceleration, t_1=2.7\ min=162\ s

duration of second phase of zero acceleration, t_2=13.7\ min=822\ s

uniform velocity during the second phase, v_2=10\ m.s^{-1}

duration third phase of uniform deceleration, t_3=4.1\ min=246\ s

final velocity after the third phase of motion, v=0\ m.s^{-1}

  • <u>Now we find the acceleration in the first phase of motion: </u>

<u />a_1=\frac{v_1-u}{t_1}<u />

a_1=\frac{10-0}{162} =\frac{10}{162}\ m.s^{-2}

<u>Now using the equation of motion:</u>

s_1=u.t_1+0.5a_1.t_1^2

s_1=0+0.5\times \frac{10}{162} \times 162^2

s_1=810\ m is the distance covered in the first phase of motion.

  • <u>Distance covered in the third phase of motion:</u>

s_2=v_2\times t_2

s_2=10\times 822

s_2=8220\ m

  • <u>Now we find the deceleration in the third phase of motion:</u>

a_3=\frac{v-v_3}{t_3}

a_3=\frac{0-10}{246}

a_3=\frac{10}{246}\ m.s^{-1}

<u>Now using the equation of motion:</u>

<u />s_3=v_3.t_3+05.\times a_3.t_3^2<u />

<u />s_3=10\times 246-0.5\times \frac{10}{246} \times 246^2<u />

<u />s_3=1230\ m is the distance covered in the third phase of motion.

Hence the total distance covered by the bicycle in the whole incident is:

s=s_1+s_2+s_3

s=810+8220+1230

s=10260\ m

s=10.26\ km

Answer:

10259.6 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Radius of small wheel,r=0.17 m

Radius of large wheel,r'=0.92 m

Initial velocity,u=0

Time,t=2.7 minutes=162 s

1 min=60 s

Velocity,v=10m/s

Time,t'=13.7 minutes=822 s

Time,t''=4.1 minutes=246 s

v=u+at

Substitute the values

10=0+162a=162a

a=\frac{10}{162}=0.0617m/s^2

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

Substitute the values

s=\frac{1}{2}(0.0617)(162)^2=809.6 m

s'=vt'=10\times 822=8220 m

a'=\frac{v}{t''}=\frac{10}{246}

s''=\frac{1}{2}a't''^2=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{10}{246}(246)^2=1230 m

Total distance traveled by rider=s+s'+s''=809.6+8220+1230=10259.6 m

Calculate the unit cell edge length for an 79 wt% Ag- 21 wt% Pd alloy. All of the palladium is in solid solution, and the crysta
ankoles [38]

Answer:

The edge length is 0.4036 nm

Solution:

As per the question:

Density of Ag, \rho = 10.49 g/cm^{3}

Density of Pd, \rho = 12.02 g/cm^{3}

Atomic weight of Ag, A = 107.87 g/mol

Atomic weight of Pd, A' = 106.4 g/mol

Now,

The average density, \rho_{a} = \frac{n A_{avg}} {V_{c}\times N_{A}}

where

V_{c} = a^{3}  = Volume of crystal lattice

a = edge length

n = 4 = no. of atoms in FCC

Therefore,

\rho_{a} = = \frac{n A_{avg}} {V_{c}\times N_{A}}

Therefore, the length of the unit cell is given as:

a = (\frac{nA_{avg}}{\rho_{a}\times N_{a}})^{1/3}            (1)

Average atomic weight is given as:

A_{avg} = \frac{100}{\frac{C_{Ag}}{A_{Ag}} + \frac{C_{Pd}}{A_{Pd}}}

where

C_{Ag} = 79 %

A_{Ag} = 107

C_{Pd} = 21%

A_{Pd} = 106

Therefore,

A_{avg} = \frac{100}{\frac{79}{107} + \frac{21}{106}} = 106.78

In the similar way, average density is given as:

\rho_{a} = \frac{100}{\frac{C_{Ag}}{\rho_{Ag}} + \frac{C_{Pd}}{\rho_{Pd}}}

\rho_{a} = \frac{100}{\frac{79}{10.49} + \frac{21}{12.02}} = 10.78 g/cm^{3}

Therefore, edge length is given by eqn (1) as:

a = (\frac{4\times 106.78}{10.78\times 6.023 X 10^23})^{1/3} = 4.036\times 10^{- 8} cm = 0.4036\times 10^{- 9} m = 0.4036 nm

Answer:

A comet is cruising through the solar system at a speed of 50,000 kilometers per hour for 4 hours time. What is the total distance traveled by the comet during this time?

✓ Distance = Speed * Time Distance = 50,000 * 4 Distance = 200,000 km. Hope this helps

The sun will probably end up as a white dwarf. How will it be different then from what it is today
just olya [345]

Answer:

The differences that will be observed are;

1) The Sun will become faint and will no longer be yellow but rather appear white and will no longer be visible (become invisible) by unassisted vision as we can see the Sun today

2) The size of the Sun will shrink to a size comparable to the size of the Earth

3) The Sun will cool down and will no longer radiate as much heat

4) The nuclear reactions that generate energy on the Sun's will seize and the and the heat from the Sun will be from residual thermal energy

5) The core, which is the hottest part of the Sun will no longer be hydrogen but carbon and oxygen
