An Indy 500 race car's velocity increases from 4.0 m/s to +36

Physics

Answer:

The average acceleration is 8\ m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Uniform Acceleration </u>

When an object varies its velocity at the same rate, the acceleration is constant.

The relation between the initial and final speeds is:

v_f=v_o+a.t

Where:

vf  = Final speed

vo = Initial speed

a   = Constant acceleration

t   = Elapsed time

The acceleration can be calculated by solving for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

The Indy 500 race car increases its speed from vo=4 m/s to vf=36 m/s in t=4 s. Thus, the average acceleration is:

\displaystyle a=\frac{36-4}{4}=8\ m/s^2

The average acceleration is 8\ m/s^2

You drive your car in a straight line at 15 m/s for 10 kilometers, then at 25 m/s for another 10 kilometers.
Vikki [24]

Answer:

A) Average speed = 18.75 m/s

B) More time is spent at 15 m/s than at 25 m/s.

Explanation:

Let the first distance be d1 and the second distance be d2.

We are given;

d1 = 10 km = 10000 m

d2 = 10 km = 10000 m

Speed; v1 = 15 m/s

Speed; v2 = 25 m/s

Now, the formula for distance is; Distance = speed x time

Thus:

d1 = v1 x t1

t1 = d1/v1 = 10000/15 = 666.67 seconds

Also,

d2 = v2 x t2

t2 = d2/v2 = 10000/25 = 400 seconds

Average speed = total distance/total time = (10000 + 10000)/(666.67 + 400) = 18.75 m/s

From earlier, since t1 = 666.67 seconds and t2 = 400 seconds, then;

More time at 15 m/s than at 25 m/s.

If you wanted the pitch of a horn to drop relative to an observer, which way would you move the horn, relative to where that obs
Vladimir [108]
We assume that horn releases sound of constant frequency. In order for observer to observe different frequency either horn or observer or both must move.

This happens due to Doppler effect. It states that when position of source of sound and observer relative to each other changes, the observed frequency also changes. If the source emits sound of constant frequency than observed frequency will be either higher or lower than original.

When distance between source and observer increases the observed frequency will be lower. This is because same number of sound waves must cover greater distance so they have greater wavelength.
When distance between source and observer decreases the observed frequency will be higher. This is because same number of sound waves must cover smaller distance so they have smaller wavelength. 

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional meaning when one increases the other drecreases.

From this explanation we can find answer for our question. <span>If we wanted the pitch of a horn to drop relative to an observer we need to move horn away from an observer.</span>
