Answer:

2 m/s

Explanation:

The first part of the question the car is going in reverse or negative along the x axis. Then the second part the car is moving forward along the x axis. So the car would only have velocity in the current direction of movement. So our equation for velocity is as follows.

v = d/t

v = 10 m/5 s

v = 2 m/s

A bullet is shot horizontally from shoulder height (1.5 m) with an initial speed 200 m/s. (a) How much time elapses before the b

daser333 [38]

Answer:

<h2>a) Time elapsed before the bullet hits the ground is 0.553 seconds.</h2><h2>b) The bullet travels horizontally 110.6 m</h2>

Explanation:

a) Consider the vertical motion of bullet

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²

Displacement, s = 1.5 m

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

1.5 = 0 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 xt²

t = 0.553 s

Time elapsed before the bullet hits the ground is 0.553 seconds.

b) Consider the horizontal motion of bullet

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 200 m/s

Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²

Time, t = 0.553 s

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

s = 200 x 0.553 + 0.5 x 0 x 0.553²

s = 110.6 m

The bullet travels horizontally 110.6 m

Chinook salmon are able to move upstream faster by jumping out of the water periodically; this behavior is called porpoising. Su

deff fn [24]

Answer:he formula for average speed is (total distance/total time)

the y-component does not matter in this problem. so do 6.26(cos45)=4.43m/s to find the x-component velocity which is constant throughout the duration of the flight. the total distance is 2L because he travels distance L twice.

the total time is ((time in water)+(time out of water)) since you dont have time you must eliminate it. to do this you need (distance)/(time)=velocity

solve for time and you get T=D/V

time in water is L/3.52 and time out of water is L/4.43

add them together and you get (4.43L+3.52L)/(15.59) = 7.95L/15.59

that value is your total time

divide you total distance (2L) by total time (7.95L/15.59) and the Ls cancel out and you get

(31.18)/(7.95) = 3.92 m/s = Average Speed

You have a pendulum clock made from a uniform rod of mass M and length L pivoting around one end of the rod. Its frequency is 1

drek231 [11]

The new oscillation frequency of the pendulum clock is 1.14 rad/s.

The given parameters;

<em>Mass of the pendulum, = M </em>
<em>Length of the pendulum, = L</em>
<em>Initial angular speed, </em> $\omega _i$ <em> = 1 rad/s</em>

The moment of inertia of the rod about the end is given as;

$I_i = \frac{1}{3} ML^2$

The moment of inertia of the rod between the middle and the end is calculated as;

$I_f = \int\limits^L_{L/2} {r^2\frac{M}{L} } \, dr = \frac{M}{3L} [r^3]^L_{L/2} = \frac{M}{3L} [L^3 - \frac{L^3}{8} ] = \frac{M}{3L} [\frac{7L^3}{8} ]= \frac{7ML^2}{24}$

Apply the principle of conservation of angular momentum as shown below;

$I _i \omega _i = I _f \omega _f\\\\\frac{ML^2}{3} (1 \ rad/s)= \frac{7ML^2}{24} \times \omega _f\\\\\frac{24 \times ML^2}{3 \times 7 ML^2} (1 \ rad/s)= \omega _f\\\\1.14 \ rad/s = \omega _f$

Thus, the new oscillation frequency of the pendulum clock is 1.14 rad/s.

What is the sequence of energy transformations associated with a hydroelectric dam?

Hatshy [7]

Gravitational potential energy -> Kinetic energy -> Mechanical energy -> Electrical energy.

The water starts up (potential) and flows down (kinetic), the flowing water turns a big wheel (mechanical) which creates electricity (electrical).
