A cyclist traveling at constant speed of 12m/s when he passes a stationary bus.The bus starts moving just as the cyclist passes

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

A.) 8 seconds

B.) 16 seconds

C.) 48 m

Explanation:

Given that a cyclist traveling at constant speed of 12 m/s

and the bus accelerates uniformly at 1.5ms²

A.) The bus has the following parameters

Acceleration a = 1.5 m/s^2

Initial velocity U = 0. Since the bus is starting from rest.

Final velocity V = 12 m/s

Use equation one of linear motion.

V = U + at

Substitute V, U and a into the formula

12 = 0 + 1.5t

1.5t = 12

t = 12/1.5

t = 8 seconds

Therefore, the bus reach the same speed as the cyclist at 8 seconds.

B.) For the cyclist moving at constant speed, acceleration a = 0. Using second equation of motion

h = Ut + 1/2at^2

Since a = 0, the equation is reduced to:

h = Ut.

Also, for the bus,

h = Ut + 1/2at^2

Equate the two equations since the h is the same

Ut = Ut + 1/2at^2

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

12t = 0 + 1/2 × 1.5t^2

12t = 0.75t^2

0.75t = 12

t = 12/0.75

t = 16 seconds

Therefore, the bus takes 16 seconds to catch the cyclist

C.) Use third equation of linear motion.

V^2 = U^2 + 2as

Where s = distance

Substitute V, U and a into the formula

12^2 = 0 + 2 × 1.5 S

144 = 3S

S = 144/3

S = 48 m

Use the mass spectrum of europium to determine the atomic mass of europium. where the peak representing eu-151 has an exact mass

slavikrds [6]

Answer: The atomic mass of a Europium atom is 151.96445 amu.

From the given information:

Percent intensity is 91.61% of Europium atom of molecular weight 150.91986 amu.

Percent intensity is 100.00% of Europium atom of molecular weight 152.92138 amu.

Abundance of Eu-151 atom:

$X_{Eu-151}=\frac{0.9161}{0.9161+1.000}=0.4781$

Abundance of Eu-153 atom:

$X_{Eu-153}=\frac{1.000}{0.9161+1.000}=0.5219$

Atomic mass of Europium atom:

$A=(X_{Eu-151}\times150.91986+X_{Eu-153}\times152.92138)amu\\A=(0.4781\times150.91986+0.5219\times152.92138)amu=151.96445 amu$

Therefore, the atomic mass of a Europium atom is 151.96445 amu.

Which of the following is an example of acceleration?

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

When a satellite is orbiting the earth , a constant force is being applied on it which means it must has acceleration. Also the direction of satellite is always being changed when it is orbitting to there is always change in the velocity vector which means acceleration.

You can view in the attached diagram to understand how the velocity is being changed.
