If the position of a particle on the x-axis at time t is −5t2, then the average velocity of the particle for 0 ≤ t ≤ 3 is

Drupady [299]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

v = 15 m / s

Explanation:

In this exercise we are given the position function

          x = 5 t²

and we are asked for the average velocity in an interval between t = 0 and t= 3 s, which is defined by the displacement between the time interval

          v= \frac{v_{f} - v_{o} }{t_{f} - t_{o} }

let's look for the displacements

        t = 0     x₀ = 0 m

        t = 3     x_{f} = 5 3 2

                     x_{f} = 45 m

 

we substitute

           v = \frac{45 -0}{3 - 0}

           v = 15 m / s

Why is no image formed when an object is at the focal point of a converging lens?
Temka [501]

Answer:

the refracted rays neither converge nor diverge. After refracting, the light rays are traveling parallel to each other and cannot produce an image.

The angle θ is slowly increased. Write an expression for the angle at which the block begins to move in terms of μs.
Reika [66]

Answer:

tan \theta = \mu_s

Explanation:

An object is at rest along a slope if the net force acting on it is zero. The equation of the forces along the direction parallel to the slope is:

mg sin \theta - \mu_s R =0 (1)

where

mg sin \theta is the component of the weight parallel to the slope, with m being the mass of the object, g the acceleration of gravity, \theta the angle of the slope

\mu_s R is the frictional force, with \mu_s being the coefficient of friction and R the normal reaction of the incline

The equation of the forces along the direction perpendicular to the slope is

R-mg cos \theta = 0

where

R is the normal reaction

mg cos \theta is the component of the weight perpendicular to the slope

Solving for R,

R=mg cos \theta

And substituting into (1)

mg sin \theta - \mu_s mg cos \theta = 0

Re-arranging the equation,

sin \theta = \mu_s cos \theta\\\rightarrow tan \theta = \mu_s

This the condition at which the equilibrium holds: when the tangent of the angle becomes larger than the value of \mu_s, the force of friction is no longer able to balance the component of the weight parallel to the slope, and so the object starts sliding down.

the winner of a 10km road race took half an hour to complete the race. Calculate the average speed. Give your answer in metres p
leonid [27]
Hello there!

For this:

1). Convert 10km to meters!
2). Convert the 30 minutes into seconds!

3). Use the following formula to solve for speed!

speed= distance/time

Note: The units should automatically work out to m/s. :)

My goal is to make sure you understand the problem, which is why I won't be giving you the answer. It'll be more work now, but less work in the future! :)

Hope this helped!

Describe an example where materials are prepared as fluids so that they can be moved easily
den301095 [7]

Answer:

In general solids are easier to transport than liquids, but the above metal example is a valid one and the only other one that comes to mind is that of concrete. It is mixed as a liquid and transported as such, but then sprayed or laid down to dry and form a solid surface or filler.
