A cyclist rides 6.3 km east for 21 minutes, then he turns and heads west for 6 minutes and 1.8 km. Finally, he rides east for 13

.2 km, which takes 44 minutes. (Assume motion toward the east is positive. Indicate the direction with the signs of your answers.) What is the final displacement of the cyclist?

Answer:

$\vec{d}=17.7km$

Explanation:

Displacement is a vector that defines the position of a particle. The vector extends from the initial position to the final position. Therefore, the displacement only takes into account this positions, since its trajectory is not important:

$\vec{d}=6.3km-1.8km+13.2km\\\vec{d}=17.7km$

If a wave had a period of 0.077 sec, it had a frequency of ?

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer: $12.98 Hz$

Explanation:

The frequency $f$ of a wave is given by the following equation:

$f=\frac{1}{P}$

Where:

$P=0.077 s$ is the period

Hence:

$f=\frac{1}{0.077 s}$

$f=12.98 s^{-1}=12.98 Hz$

Define power and describe how to determine power. (4 points)

Allushta [10]

Answer: The power is a measure of the rate at which work is done (or similarly, at which energy is transferred). The standard unit of power is Watt (1W). The power is determined by the change in energy, delta E (number of joules) and delta t, which is the time taken in seconds then: P= delta E/ delta t.

A ball is hit 1 meter above the ground with an initial speed of 40 m/s. If the ball is hit at an angle of 30 above the horizonta

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

$t_t=4.131\ s$

Explanation:

Given:

height above the horizontal form where the ball is hit, $y=1\ m$

angle of projectile above the horizontal, $\theta=30^{\circ}$

initial speed of the projectile, $u=40\ m.s^{-1}$

<u>Firstly we find the </u><u>vertical component of the initial velocity</u><u>:</u>

$u_y=u.\sin\theta$

$u_y=40\times \sin30^{\circ}$

$u_y=20\ m.s^{-1}$

During the course of ascend in height of the ball when it reaches the maximum height then its vertical component of the velocity becomes zero.

So final vertical velocity during the course of ascend:

$v_y=0\ m.s^{-1}$

Using eq. of motion:

$v_y^2=u_y^2-2g.h$ (-ve sign means that the direction of velocity is opposite to the direction of acceleration)

$0^2=20^2-2\times 9.8\times h$

$h=20.4082\ m$ (from the height where it is thrown)

<u>Now we find the time taken to ascend to this height:</u>

$v_y=u_y-g.t$

$0=20-9.8t$

$t=2.041\ s$

<u>Time taken to descent the total height:</u>

we've total height, $h'=h+y$ $=20.4082+1$

$h'=u_y'.t'+\frac{1}{2} g.t'^2$

during the course of descend its initial vertical velocity is zero because it is at the top height, so $u_y'=0\ m.s^{-1}$

$21.4082=0+4.9t'^2$

$t'=2.09\ s$

<u>Now the total time taken by the ball to hit the ground:</u>

$t_t=t'+t$

$t_t=2.09+2.041$

$t_t=4.131\ s$

A machine shop worker reports the mass of an aluminum cube as 176 g. If one side of the cube measures 4 cm, what is the density

Zarrin [17]

-- Since it's a cube, its length, width, and height are all the same 4 cm .

-- Its volume is (length x width x height) = 64 cm³ .

-- Density = (mass) / (volume)

= (176 g) / (64 cm³)

= 2.75 gm/cm³ .
