An Olympic swimmer swims 50.0 meters in 23.1 seconds . What is his average speed

Physics
1 answer:
Aneli [31]3 years ago

If you take 50 meters and divide by 23.1 seconds, you will get 2.16 meters per second.

So his average speed is 2.16 m/s.

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let h be the height .

initial velocity in first case u = 0

final velocity v = 6 m /s

acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m /s²

v² = u² + 2 g h

6² = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x h

h = 1.837 m .

For second case u = 3 m /s

v² = u² + 2 gh

= 3² + 2 x 1.837 x 9.8

= 9 + 36

= 45 m

v = 6.7 m /s

Imagine an alternate universe where the value of the Planck constant is . In that universe, which of the following objects would
HACTEHA [7]

Question: The planck constant was not given. In this calculation, planck constant of 6.62607*10^-9 Js  is used for the calculation.

Answer:

(a) A virus -------------Classical

(b) A buckyball -----Classical

(c) A mosquito ------ Quantum

(d) A turtle  ------------Quantum

Explanation:

 Calculating the wavelength using the formula;

λ= h/(mv)

where

λ= Wavelength

h = Planck Constant = 6.62607*10^-9 Js

m = mass in kg

v = velocity in m/s

Virus size = 280. nm = 2.80*10⁻⁷ m

a)

A Virus:

m = 9.4 x 10-17 g 9.4*10⁻²⁰ kg

v = 0.50 µm/s = 5 *10⁻⁷ m/s

h = 6.62607*10^-9 Js

Virus size = 280 nm = 2.80*10⁻⁷ m

Substituting into the formula; we have

λ= h/(mv)

λ= 6.62607*10^-9/ (9.4*10⁻²⁰* 5 *10⁻⁷)

  = 6.62607*10^-9/4.7*10^-26

  = 1.4*10^17 m

Classical : Wavelength is bigger than it's size

(b)

A buckyball

m = 1.2 x 10-21 g = 1.2 *10⁻²⁴ kg

V = 37 m/s

Size = 0.7 nm = 7*10⁻¹⁰ m

Substituting into the formula, we have

λ= h/(mv)

λ= 6.62607*10^-9/ ( 1.2 *10⁻²⁴* 37)

  =  6.62607*10^-9/4.44*10^-23

  = 1.49 *10^14 m

Classical : Wavelength is bigger than it's size

(c)

A mosquito

Mass = 1.0 mg = 1*10⁻⁶ kg

v = 1.1 m/s

Size =  6.3 mm = 6.3*10⁻³ m

Substituting into the formula, we have

λ= h/(mv)

λ= 6.62607*10^-9/ (  1*10⁻⁶* 1.1)

  =  6.62607*10^-9/1.1*10^-6

  = 6.02*10^-3 m

Quantum Approach: The wavelength and the size are comparable

(d)

A turtle

Mass = 710. g = 0.71 kg

Size =  22. cm = 0.22 m

V =  2.8 cm/s. = 0.028 m/s

Substituting into the formula, we have

λ= h/(mv)

λ= 6.62607*10^-9/ (  0.71* 0.028)

  = 6.62607*10^-9/0.01988

   = 3.33*10^-7 m

Quantum Approach: The wavelength and the size are comparable

Starting from rest, a disk rotates about its central axis with constant angular acceleration. in 6.00 s, it rotates 44.5 rad. du
Klio2033 [76]

a. The disk starts at rest, so its angular displacement at time t is

\theta=\dfrac\alpha2t^2

It rotates 44.5 rad in this time, so we have

44.5\,\mathrm{rad}=\dfrac\alpha2(6.00\,\mathrm s)^2\implies\alpha=2.47\dfrac{\rm rad}{\mathrm s^2}

b. Since acceleration is constant, the average angular velocity is

\omega_{\rm avg}=\dfrac{\omega_f+\omega_i}2=\dfrac{\omega_f}2

where \omega_f is the angular velocity achieved after 6.00 s. The velocity of the disk at time t is

\omega=\alpha t

so we have

\omega_f=\left(2.47\dfrac{\rm rad}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6.00\,\mathrm s)=14.8\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

making the average velocity

\omega_{\rm avg}=\dfrac{14.8\frac{\rm rad}{\rm s}}2=7.42\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

Another way to find the average velocity is to compute it directly via

\omega_{\rm avg}=\dfrac{\Delta\theta}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{44.5\,\rm rad}{6.00\,\rm s}=7.42\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

c. We already found this using the first method in part (b),

\omega=14.8\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

d. We already know

\theta=\dfrac\alpha2t^2

so this is just a matter of plugging in t=12.0\,\mathrm s. We get

\theta=179\,\mathrm{rad}

Or to make things slightly more interesting, we could have taken the end of the first 6.00 s interval to be the start of the next 6.00 s interval, so that

\theta=44.5\,\mathrm{rad}+\left(14.8\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}\right)t+\dfrac\alpha2t^2

Then for t=6.00\,\rm s we would get the same \theta=179\,\rm rad.
