Calculate the average velocity of a motor cycle that travels 72km/hr in 20 seconds

Physics

Velocity =displacement
Change in time
D=72km/hr
Time=20s
But the S.I unit of velocity is m/s so you woul have to change 72km/hr to m/s

Changing 72km to m

1 kilometer=1000meters
Then, 72 kilometers =?

72•1000/1
=72000m

Changing 72hours to seconds

If 1 hour = 3600 seconds
Then 72 hours=?

72•3600/1

=259200 seconds


Velocity =displacement
Change in time

V= 72,000
259,2005
=0.028m/s

(a) See graph in attachment

The appropriate graph to draw in this part is a graph of velocity vs time.

In this problem, we have a horse that accelerates from 0 m/s to 15 m/s in 10 s.

Assuming the acceleration of the horse is uniform, it means that the velocity (y-coordinate of the graph) must increase linearly with the time: therefore, the velocity-time graph will appear as a straight line, having the final point at

t = 10 s

v = 15 m/s

(b) 1.5 m/s^2

The average acceleration of the horse can be calculated as:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time interval

In this problem,

u = 0

v = 15 m/s

t = 10 s

Substituting,

a=\frac{15-0}{10}=1.5 m/s^2

(c) 75 m

For a uniformly accelerated motion, the distance travelled can be calculated by using the suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the distance travelled

u is the initial velocity

t is the time interval

a is the acceleration

In this problem,

u = 0

t = 10 s

a=1.5 m/s^2

Substituting,

s=0+\frac{1}{2}(1.5)(10)^2=75 m

(d) See attached graphs

In a uniformly accelerated motion:

- The distance travelled (x) follows the equation mentioned in part c,

x=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

So, we see that this has the form of a parabola: therefore, the graph x vs t will represents a parabola.

- The acceleration is constant during the motion, and its value is

a=1.5 m/s^2 (calculated in part b)

therefore, the graph acceleration vs time will show a flat line at a constant value of 1.5 m/s^2.
