The answer is D. All of these
Answer:
3.76 m/s
Explanation:
Instantaneous velocity: This can be defined as the velocity of an object in a non uniform motion. The S.I unit is m/s.
v' = dx(t)/dt..................... Equation 1
Where v' = instantaneous velocity, x = distance, t = time.
Given the expression,
x(t) = 28.0 m + (12.4 m/s)t - (0.0450 m/s³)t³
x(t) = 28 + 12.4t - 0.0450t³
Differentiating x(t) with respect to t.
dx(t)/dt = 12.4 - 0.135t²
dx(t)/dt = 12.4 - 0.135t²
When t = 8.00 s.
dx(t)/dt = 12.4 - 0.135(8)²
dx(t)/dt = 12.4 - 8.64
dx(t)/dt = 3.76 m/s.
Therefore,
v' = 3.76 m/s.
Hence, the instantaneous velocity = 3.76 m/s
This instrument is called a spring scale.
