A gardener pushes her 90 kg wheelbarrow in a straight line out of her garage and across the yard in 18 s. If her average velocit

y is 1.5 m/s, what is her displacement?
A. 0.8 km
B. 12 km toward the garden
C. 18 m toward the garage
D. 27 m away from the garage

The answer is D, because displacement equals average velocity times time. 1.5 m/s times 18s equals 27 meters.

A capacitor in a single-loop RC circuit is charged to 85% of its final potential difference in 2.4 s. What is the time constant

atroni [7]

Answer:

The time constant is $\tau = 1.265 s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

the time take to charge is $t = 2.4 \ s$

The mathematically representation for voltage potential of a capacitor at different time is

$V = V_o - e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$

Where $\tau$ is the time constant

$V_o$ is the potential of the capacitor when it is full

So the capacitor potential will be 100% when it is full thus $V_o =$ 100% = 1

and from the question we are told that the at the given time the potential of the capacitor is 85% = 0.85 of its final potential so

V = 0.85

Hence

$0.85 = 1 - e^{-\frac{2.4}{\tau } }$

$- {\frac{2.4}{\tau } } = ln0.15$

$\tau = 1.265 s$

A 50 kg pitcher throws a baseball with a mass of 0. 15 kg. If the ball is thrown with a positive velocity of 35 m/s and there is

dsp73

The velocity of the pitcher at the given mass is 0.1 m/s.

The given parameters:

<em>Mass of the pitcher, m₁ = 50 kg</em>
<em>Mass of the baseball, m₂ = 0.15 kg</em>
<em>Velocity of the ball, u₂ = 35 m/s</em>

<em />

Let the velocity of the pitcher = u₁

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum to determine the velocity of the pitcher as shown below;

m₁u₁ = m₂u₂

$u_1 = \frac{m_2 u_2}{m_1} \\\\u_1 = \frac{0.15 \times 35}{50} \\\\u_1 = 0.105 \ m/s\\\\u_1 \approx 0.1 \ m/s$

Thus, the velocity of the pitcher at the given mass is 0.1 m/s.

If an object accelerates from rest, with a constant of 8 m/s2, what will its velocity be after 35s?

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

<em>Its speed will be 280 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Constant Acceleration Motion</u>

It's a type of motion in which the speed of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

If a is the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time, vf can be calculated as:

$v_f=v_o+at$

The object accelerates from rest (vo=0) at a constant acceleration of $a=8\ m/s^2$ . The final speed at t=35 seconds is:

$v_f=0+8*35$

$v_f=280\ m/s$

Its speed will be 280 m/s

9. A 227 kg object is moved a distance of 2.4 m forward by a force. If 686 J of work is done on the object, what is the object’s

Korolek [52]

<em>1</em><em>.</em><em>259ms^2</em>

Explanation:

since, WORK DONE = FORCE*DISTANCE

AND, FORCE=MASS*ACCELERATION

SO, THE WORK DONE BECOMES=MASS*ACCELERATION*DISTANCE

ACCELERATION=WORK/(MASS*DISTANCE)

AND, WORK=686J

MASS=227kg

DISTANCE=2.4m

THEREFORE, ACCELERATION=686/(227*2.4)

=686/544.8

=1.259ms^2
