A rabbit is hopping along at an approximately constant speed of 3.9 m/s. The rabbit passes a crouched cat ready to chase the rab

bit. The cat takes off the instant the rabbit passes the cat, accelerating at 0.5 m/s2. How long does it take the cat to catch the rabbit

Answer:

t  = 7,8 s

Explanation:

From the instant, the rabbit passes the cat. The cat star running acceleration of 0,5 m/s² .

When the cat arrives at the speed of 3,9 m/s the cat catches the rabbit

Then for the cat arrives at 3,9 m/s nedds

v = vo + a*t     vo  = 0  then   v = a*t

3,9 ( m/s) = 0,5 ( m/s² ) * t

t  = 7,8 s

v  =  3,9 m/s =

A cart starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 4.0 m/s2 for 5.0 s. It next maintains the velocity it has reached for 10 s.
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

12m/s

Explanation:

v_f=v_o+at

Let's call the velocity that the car maintains for 10 seconds v_f_1, and the final velocity v_f_2.

v_f_1=0+(4)(5)=20m/s \\\\v_f_2=20+(-2)(4)=12m/s

Hope this helps!

Superman is supposed to leap tall buildings in a single bound. Suppose that he obeys the normal laws of physics in this feat. Es
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

31.32 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Let us assume the height of the Disque hall is 50 m

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{v^2-2as}\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{0^2-2\times -9.81\times 50}\\\Rightarrow u=31.32\ m/s

In order to make the jump Superman's initial velocity must be greater than or equal to 31.32 m/s

In a certain region of space, a uniform electric field has a magnitude of 4.30 x 104 n/c and points in the positive x direction.
denis23 [38]
The magnetic force exerted by a field E to a charge q is given by F=Eq. In this case, F=4.30*10^4*(6.80mu C). 1mu C=10^-6C, so F=4.30*6.80=10^-2=0.29N. The direction is in the x direction, the direction that the field is applied because the charge is positive.

A disk of radius 25 cm spinning at a rate of 30 rpm slows to a stop over 3 seconds. What is the angular acceleration? B. How man
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:  

A. α = - 1.047 rad/s²  

B. θ = 14.1 rad  

C. θ = 2.24 rev  

Explanation:  

A.  

We can use the first equation of motion to find the acceleration:

\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t  

where,  

ωf = final angular speed = 0 rad/s  

ωi = initial angular speed = (30 rpm)(2π rad/1 rev)(1 min/60 s) = 3.14 rad/s  

t = time = 3 s  

α = angular acceleration = ?  

Therefore,

0\ rad/s = 3.14\ rad/s + \alpha(3\ s)  

<u>α = - 1.047 rad/s²</u>

B.  

We can use the second equation of motion to find the angular distance:

\theta = \omega_it +\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2\\\theta = (3.14\ rad/s)(3\ s) + \frac{1}{2}(1.04\ rad/s^2)(3)^2  

<u>θ = 14.1 rad</u>

C.  

θ = (14.1 rad)(1 rev/2π rad)  

<u>θ = 2.24 rev</u>
