[Assume g = 10m/s?] If a girl is running along a straight road with a uniform velocity 1.5 m/s, find her acceleration. (Ans: 0)

a.​

1 answer:
DerKrebs [107]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Her acceleration is 0 m/s²

Explanation:

We note that the motion of the girl is on a straight road, therefore;

The vertical acceleration (e.g. due to gravity, <em>g)</em> on the horizontal motion = 0

The horizontal acceleration, a = (Change in velocity, Δv)/(Change in time, Δt)

For uniform velocity, the change in velocity, Δv = 0

Therefore, fore any change in time, Δt, we have;

a = Δv/Δt

Her acceleration, a = 0/Δt = 0

Her acceleration, a = 0 m/s²

A sound source is located somewhere along the x-axis. Experiments show that the same wave front simultaneously reaches listeners
guapka [62]

Answer:

a)   x₀ = - 2 m  , b)     y = 4.47 m

Explanation:

A wave travels in the middle with constant speed, let's use the equation of uniform motion

    v = d / t

    t = d / v

The distance to the first listeners, see attached

    d₁ = x₀-x

     t = (x₀ +7) / v

The distance to the second listener

    d₂ = x - x₀

     t = (+ 3- x₀) / v

As the wave arrives at the same time, we can equal the two equations

     (x₀ +7) / v = (3 -x₀) / v

      x₀ + 7 = 3 - x₀

      2 x₀ = 3 - 7

      x₀ = -4/2

      x₀ = - 2 m

b) The time it takes for the wave to reach the listeners of the x-axis, where the speed of sound is 340 m / s

          t = 5/340

          t = 0.0147 s

Let's look for the distance the wave travels for the listener axis and

       v = d₃ / t

       d₃ = v.t

       d₃ = 340 * 0.0147

       d₃ = 5 m

For the distance component we use the Pythagorean triangle

      d₃² = x₀² + y²

      y² = d₃² - x₀²

     y = √ (d₃² -4)

      y = √ (5² -4)

     y = 4.47 m

<h2><em><u>⇒</u></em>Answer:</h2>

In the standing broad jump, one squats and then pushes off with the legs to see how far one can jump. Suppose the extension of the legs from the crouch position is 0.600 m and the acceleration achieved from this position is 1.25 times the acceleration due to gravity, g . How far can they jump? State your assumptions. (Increased range can be achieved by swinging the arms in the direction of the jump.)

Step-by-Step Solution:

Solution 35PE

This question discusses about the increased range. So, we shall assume that the angle of jumping will be  as the horizontal range is maximum at this angle.

Step 1 of 3<

/p>

The legs have an extension of 0.600 m in the crouch position.

So,  m

The person is at rest initially, so the initial velocity will be zero.

The acceleration is  m/s2

Acceleration  m/s2

Let the final velocity be .

Step 2 of 3<

/p>

Substitute the above given values in the kinematic equation  ,

m/s

Therefore, the final velocity or jumping speed is  m/s

Army is standing still on the ground; Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward: and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s west
Aleks04 [339]

Explanation:

Given that,

Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward: and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s westward.

Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:

v_B=+5\ m/sis the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)

v_c=15\ m/s is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy.

Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is

v_B=+5\ m/s

Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be

v_c'=-15\ m/s-(+5\ m/s)\\\\=-20\ m/s

So, the magnitude is 20 m/s and the direction is westward (negative sign).
