At highway speeds a car can accelerate at 1.7 m/s2.

Physics

Vaselesa [24]2 years ago

Answer: 2.5 seconds

Explanation:

We know that the acceleration is:

a(t) = 1.7 m/s^2

To get the velocity function, we must integrate over time, and we will get:

v(t) = (1.7m/s^2)*t + v0

Where v0 is the initial velocity, in this case, we assume that we start at 23.6m/s, then the initial velocity is:

v0 = 23.6 m/s

Then the velocity equation is:

v(t) =  (1.7m/s^2)*t + 23.6 m/s

Now we want to find the value of t such v(t) = 27.8 m/s

Then:

v(t) =  27.8 m/s =  (1.7m/s^2)*t + 23.6 m/s

        27.8 m/s  - 23.6 m/s =  (1.7m/s^2)*t

         4.2 m/s = (1.7m/s^2)*t

         4.2m/s/(1.7m/s^2) = t = 2.5 s

Then at that acceleration, you need 2.5 seconds.

Pls help me with this problem!!
Olenka [21]

Answer:

v = 19.6 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

The radius of the circle, r = 5 m

The time period of the ball, T = 1.6s

We need to find the ball's tangential velocity.

The formula for the tangential velocity is given by :

v=\dfrac{2\pi r}{T}

Putting all the values in the above formula

v=\dfrac{2\pi \times 5}{1.6}\\\\v=19.6\ m/s

So, the tangential velocity of the ball is 19.6 m/s. Hence, the correct option is (c).

Which of the following statements describes a compound machine?
ASHA 777 [7]
From the word compound, the compound machine is already a combination of two or more types of simple machine. Thus, the answer is letter C. Because of its complexity, it is able to perform several other functions than a simple one.

Define couple and give 2 examples
Elodia [21]

Answer:

Two equal and opposite parallel forces not acting along the same line, form a couple. A couple is always needed to produce the rotation.

For example, turning a key in a lock and turning a steering wheel.

if a ball is thrown straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 8080 ft/s, its height in feet after tt second is given
yanalaym [24]

The average velocity for the time period beginning when t=1 and lasting

(i) 0.01 seconds = 63.84 ft/s

(ii) 0.001 seconds = 63.984 ft/s

Given that a ball is thrown with an initial velocity = 80 ft/s

Let 'y' be the height in feet after 't' seconds.

Given,  y=80t-16t^2 gives the height in 't' seconds.

Average velocity = Rate of change of distance

                             = Change in distance/Change in time.

The initial time can be taken as 0 s.

When t =1 s, y = 80 - 16 = 64 ft

(1)  t = 0.01 s

    y = 80 x 0.01 - 16 x 0.01 x 0.01 = 0.7984 ft

    Average velocity = (64 - 0.7984) / (1 -0.01) = 63.84 ft/s

(2) t = 0.001 s

    y = 80 x 0.001 - 16 x 0.001 x 0.001 = 0.079984 ft

    Average velocity = (64 - 0.079984) / (1 -0.001) = 63.984 ft/s

The question is incomplete. Find out the complete question below:

If a ball is thrown straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 80 ft/s, it height in feet after t second is given by  y=80t-16t^2 .Find the average velocity for the time period beginning when t=1 and lasting

(i) 0.01 seconds
