Answer:

x = 95 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f} =v_{o} +a*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 19 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 0 (starts from the rest)

a = acceleration [m/s²]

t = time = 10 [s]

Now we can find the acceleration

19 = 0 *a*(10)

a = 1.9 [m/s]

With the second equation we can find the distance:

v_{f} ^{2} =v_{o} ^{2} +(2*a*x)

where:

x = distance [m]

(19)² = (0)² + (2*1.9*x)

3.8*x = 361

x = 95 [m]

A train locomotive is pulling two cars of the same mass behind it. Determine the ratio of the tension in the coupling (think of
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

The ratio is  \frac{F_{T1}}{F_{T2}}  =  2

Explanation:

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

Here we are assume the acceleration of the train is a

which makes the acceleration of each car a

From the question we are told that

      Considering the second car

 The force causing it s movement  is mathematically represented as

       F_{T2} =  ma

 Considering the first car

 The force causing it s movement  is mathematically represented as

      F  = F_{T1} -F_{T2} = ma

=>   F_{T1} -ma  = ma

=>   F_{T1} =  2 ma

=> \frac{F_{T1}}{ma}  =  2

=> \frac{F_{T1}}{F_{T2}}  =  2

A 35.4 kg girl is riding on the back of a 15.23 kg cart. the cart and the kid are both moving eastward at 4.25 m/s when she step
Grace [21]

Answer:

The final  velocity of the cart is  v_c = 7.02 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of the girl is  m_g  = 35.4 \ kg

     The mass of the cart is  m_c  = 15.23 \ kg

      The speed of the cart and  kid(girl) is  v = 4.25 \ m/s

     The final velocity of  the girl is v_g  = 3.06 \  m/s

Let assume that velocity eastward is  positive and velocity westward is negative (Note that if we assume vise versa it wouldn't affect the answer )

   The total momentum of the system before she steps off the back of the cart

is mathematically evaluated as

        p__{T1}} = (m_g + m_c) * v

substituting values

        p__{T1}} = (35.4 + 15.23) * 4.25

        p__{T1}} =215.17 \  kg m /s

The total momentum after she steps off the back of the cart is mathematically evaluated as

        p__{T2}} = (m_g * v_g ) +(  m_c * v_c )

Where  v_c  is the final velocity of the cart

substituting values    

      p__{T2}} = (35.4 * 3.06 ) +(  15.23 * v_c )

       p__{T2}} = 108. 324 + 15.23  v_c

Now according to the law of conservation of momentum

       p__{T1}} =p__{T2}}

So  

       215.17 \  kg m /s =  108. 324 + 15.23  v_c

=>      v_c = 7.02 \  m/s

Since the value is positive it implies that the cart moved eastward

A brick is thrown from a wall that is 19.2 m above the ground and hits the ground 5.00 s later. What was the initial velocity of
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

0

Explanation:

Given the following :

Height of wall = 19.2 m

Time taken to hit the ground = 5 seconds

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8m/s ( downward motion)

The initial velocity of the object refers to the Velocity of the object at time t = 0

Initial Velocity = g × time

Initial Velocity = 9.8 × 0 = 0
