Answer:

c 275 m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Final velocity  = 73.5m/s

Unknown:

Height of fall  = ?

Solution:

Since the body is falling from rest, U = 0 or initial velocity is 0m/s. Then we use one of the kinematics equation to solve this problem.

           V²   = U²  + 2gH

V is the final velocity

U is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

H is the height

           73.5²   = 0²  +  (2 x 9.8 x h)

         5402.25 = 19.6h

                h = 275.6m

Two drag cars race. They line up at the starting line at rest. The winning car accelerates at a constant rate a and reaches the
Mila [183]

Answer:d=\frac{v^2}{8a}

Explanation:

Given

winning car accelerates with a and its final velocity is v

considering they both start from rest

time taken by winning car is

v=u+at

where u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

v=at

t=\frac{v}{a}

Now loosing car is accelerating with \frac{a}{4}

Distance traveled by loosing car in time t

s_1=ut+\frac{at^2}{2\cdot 4}

s_1=0+\frac{a}{8}\times (\frac{v}{a})^2

s_1=\frac{v^2}{8a}

Thus distance d traveled by loosing car is given by d=\frac{v^2}{8a}

Korolek [52]

Answer:

a. v_f=1.477m/s

b. ΔK=1558.3J

c. E_k=1034.7 J

Explanation:

a).

Momentum conserved

p_{ix}=p_{fx}

m_1*v_1+m_2*v_2=(m_1+m_2)*v_f

v_f=\frac{m_1*v_1+m_2*v_2}{m_1+m_2}

v_f=\frac{89.0kg*5.6m/s+85.0kg*-2.84m/s}{(89.0+85.0)kg}

v_f=1.477m/s

b).

ΔK=K_i-K_f

\frac{1}{2}*m_1*v_1^2+\frac{1}{2}*m_2*v_2^2=\frac{1}{2}*(m_1+m_2)*v_f^2

\frac{1}{2}*89.0kg*(5.6m/s)^2+\frac{1}{2}*85.0kg*(2.84m/s)^2=\frac{1}{2}*(89.0+85.0)kg*(1.447m/s)^2

ΔK=1558.3J

c).

E_k=\frac{1}{2}*89kg*(5.8m/s)^2-\frac{1}{2}*(85+89)kg*(1.44m/s)^2

E_k=1034.7 J

d).
