A 150 kg car hits a wall with 45 N of force, what was its acceleration?​

Physics

alisha [4.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

a = 0.3 m/s²

Explanation:

Given: 45 N, 150 kg

To find: a

Formula: a = \frac{F}{m}

Solution: To find a, divide the force by the weight  

A = F ÷ m

=  45 ÷  150

= 0.3 m/s²

Newtons are derived units, equal to 1 kg-m/s². In other words, a single Newton is equal to the force needed to accelerate one kilogram one meter per second squared.

The function x = (1.2 m) cos[(3πrad/s)t + π/5 rad] gives the simple harmonic motion of a body. At t = 9.7 s, what are the (a) di
nlexa [21]

Answer and Explanation:

Let:

x(t)=Acos(\omega t+ \phi)

The equation representing a simple harmonic motion, where:

x=Displacement\hspace{3}from\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}equilibrium\hspace{3}point\\A=Amplitude \hspace{3}of\hspace{3} motion\\\omega= Angular \hspace{3}frequency\\\phi=Initial\hspace{3} phase\\t=time

As you may know the derivative of the position is the velocity and the derivative of the velocity is the acceleration. So we can get the velocity and the acceleration by deriving the position:

v(t)=\frac{dx(t)}{dt} =- \omega A sin(\omega t + \phi)\\\\a(t)=\frac{dv(t)}{dt} =- \omega^2 A cos(\omega t + \phi)

Also, you may know these fundamental formulas:

f=\frac{\omega}{2 \pi} \\\\T=\frac{2 \pi}{\omega}

Now, using the previous information and the data provided by the problem, let's solve the questions:

(a)

x(9.7)=1.2 cos((3 \pi *(9.7))+\frac{\pi}{5} ) \approx -0.70534m

(b)

v(9.7)=-(3\pi) (1.2) sin((3\pi *(9.7))+\frac{\pi}{5} ) \approx 9.1498 m/s

(c)

a(9.7)=-(3 \pi)^2(1.2)cos((3\pi*(9.7))+\frac{\pi}{5} )\approx -62.653m/s^2

(d)

We can extract the phase of the motion, the angular frequency and the amplitude from the equation provided by the problem:

\phi = \frac{\pi}{5}

(e)

f=\frac{\omega}{2 \pi} =\frac{3\pi}{2 \pi} =\frac{3}{2} =1.5 Hz

(f)

T=\frac{2 \pi}{\omega} =\frac{2 \pi}{3 \pi} =\frac{2}{3} \approx 0.667s

maxonik [38]

Answer:

answer is 0.1428

Explanation:

Data:- vf=5.0 , vi=0.0 , t=35 , a=? so appling first eq of motion vf=vi+at we have to find a=vf-vi/t , a=5.0-0.0/35 , a=5/35 ,a=0.1428m/sec²

A stationary charge is located between the poles of a horseshoe magnet. Is a magnetic force excerted of the charge? why?
vredina [299]

A stationary charge is located between the poles of a horseshoe magnet. The magnetic force exerted by the charge is zero.

<h3>What is charge?</h3>

Charge is the physical property of matter which cause a particle to attract or repel when placed in its field.

A stationary charged particle does not interact with a static magnetic field. A charge placed in a magnetic field experiences a magnetic force. There will be no magnetic force acting on a stationary charge. The charge must be moving in order to have magnetic force on it.

Thus, the magnetic force exerted by the charge is zero.
