The following time dependent force is applied to a 2 kg block that is initially at rest on a frictionless and horizontal surface

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The displacement of the block is 9 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block = 2 kg

Time = 3 sec

The force is

$F(t)=4t$

The acceleration is

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

Put the value into the formula

$a=\dfrac{4t}{2}$

$a=2t$

We need to calculate the velocity

Using formula of acceleration

$v=\int_{0}^{t}{a dt}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\int_{0}^{3}(2t dt)$

$v=(\dfrac{2t^2}{2})_{0}^{3}$

$v=(t^2)_{0}^{3}$

$v=9\ m/s$

We need to calculate the displacement

Using formula of velocity

$s=\int_{0}^{3}(v dt)$

$s=(t^2)_{0}^{3}$

$s=(\dfrac{t^3}{3})_{0}^{3}$

$s=9\ m/s$

Hence, The displacement of the block is 9 m.

Which labels best complete the diagram?

nlexa [21]

Answer: D

Explanation: Look at the figure, we can conclude that the correct answer is

X: Low potential energy

Y: High potential energy

Z: Flow of electrons

Because electrons flow where there is difference in potential energy. And electrons move from a region of high potential energy to a region of low potential energy.

Since the arrow is pointing to X, that means

Z is the flow of electrons, X is of low potential energy and Y is of high potential energy.

A handful of professional skaters have taken a skateboard through an inverted loop in a full pipe. For a typical pipe with a dia

Bingel [31]

Answer

given,

diameter of the pipe is = (14 ft)4.27 m

minimum speed of the skater must have at very top = ?

At the topmost point of the pipe the normal force will be equal to zero.

F = mg

centripetal force acting on the skateboard

$F = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

equating both the force equation

$mg = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$v = \sqrt{gr}$

r = d/2 = 14/ 2 = 7 ft

r = 4.27/2 = 2.135 m

g = 32 ft/s² or g = 9.8 m/s²

$v = \sqrt{32 \times 7}$

v = 14.96 ft/s

$v = \sqrt{9.8 \times 2.135}$

v = 4.57 m/s

A driver of a car traveling 14.6 m/s must slam on the brakes to avoid hitting a black bear crossing the road. If it takes 3.00 s

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

a = (V2 - V1) / t = (0 - 14.6) / 3 = -4.87 m/s^2

It might be useful to convert 14.6 m/s to mph

14.6 m/s * 39.37 in/m = 575 in /s

575 in/s / 12 in/ft = 47.9 ft/sec

47.9 ft/s / 88 ft/sec * 60 mph = 32.6 mph
