Answer:

The acceleration during the first 5.6 km of travel is closest to 0.16 m/s²    

Option c) 0.16 m/s² is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

since the train starts from rest,

Initial velocity; u = 0 m/s

final velocity; v = 42 m/s

distance covered S = 5.6 km = ( 5.6 × 1000 )m = 5600 m

acceleration a = ?

From the third equation of motion;

v² = u² + 2as

we substitute in our values

( 42 )² = ( 0 )² + [ 2 × a × 5600 ]

1764 = 0 + [ 11200 × a ]

1764 = 11200 × a

a = 1764 / 11200

a = 0.1575 ≈ 0.16 m/s²          { two decimal place }

Therefore, The acceleration during the first 5.6 km of travel is closest to 0.16 m/s²    

Option c) 0.16 m/s² is the correct answer.

A wheel rotates with a constant angular acceleration of  rad/s2. During a certain time interval its angular displacement is  r
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The angular velocity at the beginning of the interval is \pi\sqrt{2}\ rad/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular acceleration \alpha=\pi\ rad/s^2

Angular displacement \theta=\pi\ rad

Angular velocity \omega =2\pi\ rad/s

We need to calculate the angular velocity at the beginning

Using formula of angular velocity

\alpha =\dfrac{\omega^2-\omega_{0}^2}{2\theta}

\omega_{0}^2=\omega^2-2\alpha\theta

Where, \alpha = angular acceleration

\omega = angular velocity

Put the value into the formula

\omega_{0}^2=(2\pi)^2-2\times\pi\times\pi

\omega=\sqrt{2\pi^2}

\omega_{0}=\pi\sqrt{2}\ rad/s

Hence, The angular velocity at the beginning of the interval is \pi\sqrt{2}\ rad/s.

. A mass m is traveling at an initial speed of 25.0 m/s. It is brought to rest in a distance of 62.5 m by a net force of 15.0 N.
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

m = 3 kg

The mass m is 3 kg

Explanation:

From the equations of motion;

s = 0.5(u+v)t

Making t thr subject of formula;

t = 2s/(u+v)

t = time taken

s = distance travelled during deceleration = 62.5 m

u = initial speed = 25 m/s

v = final velocity = 0

Substituting the given values;

t = (2×62.5)/(25+0)

t = 5

Since, t = 5 the acceleration during this period is;

acceleration a = ∆v/t = (v-u)/t

a = (25)/5

a = 5 m/s^2

Force F = mass × acceleration

F = ma

Making m the subject of formula;

m = F/a

net force F = 15.0N

Substituting the values

m = 15/5

m = 3 kg

The mass m is 3 kg

According to the first rule, if a force pulls on one end of a rope, the tension in the rope equals the magnitude of the pulling
mixer [17]

Answer:

F.

Explanation:

Here in the question the mass of the pulley is zero, hence, the tension in the cable throughout is same.

magnitude of tension in rope 1 is

T1= F

Hence the tension T1 is rope 1 is F.
