An object accelerates from rest and travels 53 m west in 5.2 s. Determine the acceleration
zmey [24]

Answer:

20.4m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 0m/s

Distance  = 53m

Time  = 5.2s

Unknown:

Acceleration  = ?

Solution:

This is a linear motion and we use the right motion equation;

        S = ut  + \frac{1}{2}at²

S is the distance

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

 Insert the parameters and solve;

       53  = (0x 5.2) +  \frac{1}{2} x a x 5.2

       53  = 2.6a

         a = \frac{53}{2.6}  = 20.4m/s²

A 39-foot ladder is leaning against a vertical wall. If the bottom of the ladder is being pulled away from the wall at the rate
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

The rate of change of the area when the bottom of the ladder (denoted by b) is at 36 ft. from the wall is the following:

\frac{dA}{dt}|_{b=36}=-571.2\, ft^2/s

Explanation:

The Area of the triangle is given by A=h\times b where h=\sqrt{l^2-b^2} (by using the Pythagoras' Theorem) and b is the length of the base of the triangle or the distance between the bottom of the ladder and the wall.

The area is then

A=\sqrt{l^2-b^2}b

The rate of change of the area is given by its time derivative

\frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}\left(\sqrt{l^2-b^2}\cdot b\right)

\implies \frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}\left(\sqrt{l^2-b^2}\right)\cdot b+\frac{db}{dt}\cdot\sqrt{l^2-b^2}

\implies\frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\frac{d}{dt}(l^2-b^2)\cdot b+\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot \frac{db}{dt} Product rule

\implies\frac{dA}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot 2\cdot b^2\cdot \frac{db}{dt}+\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot \frac{db}{dt} Chain rule

\implies\frac{dA}{dt}=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot b^2\cdot \frac{db}{dt}+\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot \frac{db}{dt}

\implies\frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{db}{dt}\left(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot b^2+\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\right)

In here we can identify b=36\, ft, l=39 and \frac{db}{dt}=8\,ft/s.

The result is then

\frac{dA}{dt}=8\left(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{39^2-36^2}}\cdot 36^2+\sqrt{39^2-36^2}}\right)=-571.2\, ft^2/s

A steel ball rolls with a constant velocity on a tabletop 0.950 m high it rolls off and hit the ground 0.352 m from the edge of
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

0.799 m/s if air resistance is negligible.

Explanation:

For how long is the ball in the air?

Acceleration is constant. The change in the ball's height \Delta h depends on the square of the time:

\displaystyle \Delta h = \frac{1}{2} \;g\cdot t^{2} + v_0\cdot t,

where

  • \Delta h is the change in the ball's height.
  • g is the acceleration due to gravity.
  • t is the time for which the ball is in the air.
  • v_0 is the initial vertical velocity of the ball.
  • The height of the ball decreases, so this value should be the opposite of the height of the table relative to the ground. \Delta h = -0.950\;\text{m}.
  • Gravity pulls objects toward the earth, so g is also negative. g \approx -9.81\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2} near the surface of the earth.
  • Assume that the table is flat. The vertical velocity of the ball will be zero until it falls off the edge. As a result, v_0 = 0.

Solve for t.

\displaystyle \Delta h = \frac{1}{2} \;g\cdot t^{2} + v_0\cdot t;

\displaystyle -0.950 = \frac{1}{2} \times (-9.81) \cdot t^{2};

\displaystyle t^{2} =\frac{-0.950}{1/2 \times (-9.81)};

t \approx 0.440315\;\text{s}.

What's the initial horizontal velocity of the ball?

  • Horizontal displacement of the ball: \Delta x = 0.352\;\text{m};
  • Time taken: \Delta t = 0.440315\;\text{s}

Assume that air resistance is negligible. Only gravity is acting on the ball when it falls from the tabletop. The horizontal velocity of the ball will not change while the ball is in the air. In other words, the ball will move away from the table at the same speed at which it rolls towards the edge.

\begin{aligned}\text{Rolling Velocity}&=\text{Horizontal Velocity} \\&= \text{Average Horizontal Velocity}\\ &=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}=\frac{0.352\;\text{m}}{0.440315\;\text{s}}=0.0799\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-1}\end{aligned}.

Both values from the question come with 3 significant figures. Keep more significant figures than that during the calculation and round the final result to the same number of significant figures.

HURRY PEASE what happens to current when there is a diode on the circuit and why?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

The current can't 'split down the parallel branch, because the diode is reverse biased so is blocking the flow of current. So basically it's acting as an open circuit. Also when the current flows it wouldn't reduce the currents amount flow through the resistor.
