Tsunami and under water volcano
Answer:
7.00 m
Explanation:
Given:
v₀ = 2.00 m/s
v = 5.00 m/s
a = 1.50 m/s²
Find: Δx
v² = v₀² + 2aΔx
(5.00 m/s)² = (2.00 m/s)² + 2(1.50 m/s²)Δx
Δx = 7.00 m
The change in velocity is +4 m/s to the right (or -4 m/s to the left).
The object's mass is irrelevant.
Let's call the constant acceleration a.
At a time t, its speed will thus be v(t)=a*t+v0 where v0 is its initial speed, here 10 m/s. Hence v(t)=a*t+10.
From there we can deduce the position P(t)=a*t^2/2+10t+p0 where p0 is the initial position, here 0.
Hence P(t)=a*t^2/2+10t
Let's call T the time at which it's at 50 m/s, we know that P(T)=225m and that v(T)=50 m/s hence a*T+10=50 thus a=40/T and P(T)=(40/2+10)T=30T
Hence T=225/30=7.5
It took 7.5 seconds
Have a universal record base. Everyone is able to understand the data compiled since the same measurement systems are being used around the world. This is just to simplify all of the information.
