While traveling along a highway a driver slows from 24 m/s to 15 m/s in 12 seconds. What is the automobile's acceleration? (Reme

slava [35]

Answer:

Acceleration = -0.75 m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 24 m/s

Final velocity = 15 m/s

Time = 12 seconds

To find the acceleration of the automobile;

Acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

Hence, if we subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide that by the time, we can calculate an object’s acceleration.

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

$Acceleration (a) = \frac {final \; velocity - initial \; velocity}{time}$

Substituting into the formula, we have;

$Acceleration = \frac{15 - 24}{12}$

$Acceleration = \frac{-9}{12}$

Acceleration = -0.75 m/s²

Therefore, the automobile is decelerating because its final velocity is lesser than its initial velocity, leading to a negative value.

In Challenge Example 11.9 (p. 280), after the explosion, suppose that the m1 fragment shot directly north at 12 m/s and the m3 f

Inga [223]

The question is incomplete. The mass of the object is 10 gram and travelling at a speed of 2 m/s.

Solution:

It is given that mass of object before explosion is,m = 10 g

Speed of object before explosion, v = 2 m/s

Let $m_1, m_2 \text{ and}\ m_3$ be the masses of the three fragments.

Let $v_1, v_2 \text{ and}\ v_3$ be the velocities of the three fragments.

Therefore, according to the law of conservation of momentum,

$mv=m_1v_1 +m_2v_2+m_3v_3$

$10 \times 2 \hat i=3 \times 12 \hat{j} + 3(v_{2x} \hat{i}+v_{2y} \hat{j})-4 \times 9 \hat{j}$

So the x- component of the velocity of the m2 fragment after the explosion is,

$3v_{2x} = 20$

∴ $v_{2x} = 6.67 \ m/s$

From a window that is 20 m from the ground a stone with a speed of 10m / s is thrown vertically upwards. Calculate:

Oduvanchick [21]

a)

consider the motion in upward direction as positive and down direction as negative

Y₀ = initial position of the stone = 20 m

v₀ = initial velocity of the stone = 10 m/s

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

Y = final position of the stone when it reach the maximum height

v = final velocity at the maximum height = 0 m/s

t = time taken to reach the maximum height

Using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a (Y - Y₀)

0² = 10² + 2 (- 9.8) (Y - 20)

Y = 25.1 m

also using the equation

v = v₀ + a t

inserting the values

0 = 10 + (- 9.8) t

t = 1.02 sec

b)

consider the motion in upward direction as positive and down direction as negative

Y₀ = initial position of the stone = 20 m

v₀ = initial velocity of the stone = 10 m/s

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

Y = final position of the stone when it reach the ground = 0 m

t = time taken to reach the ground

Using the equation

Y = Y₀ + v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

0 = 20 + 10 t + (0.5) (- 9.8) t²

t = 3.3 sec
