Can you have a changing speed and constant velocity?

1 answer:

7 0

No, a body can not have its velocity constant, while its speed varies. Rather, it can have its speed constant and its velocity varying. For example in a uniform circular motion.

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

$a=500m/s^2$

Explanation:

We need only to apply the definition of acceleration, which is:

$a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t_f-t_i}$

In our case the final velocity is $v_f=10m/s$ , the initial velocity is $v_i=0m/s$ since it departs from rest, the final time is $t_f=0.02s$ and the initial time we are considering is $t_i=0s$

So for our values we have:

$a=\frac{10m/s-0m/s}{0.02s-0s}=500m/s^2$

Two cars are traveling along a straight road. Car A maintains a constant speed of 95 km/h and car B maintains a constant speed o

natulia [17]

Answer

given,

Speed of car A = 95 Km/h

= 95 x 0.278 = 26.41 m/s

Speed of Car B = 121 Km/h

= 121 x 0.278 = 33.64 m/s

Distance between Car A and B at t=0 = 41 Km

a) Distance travel by car B

d = 26.41 t + 41000

speed of the car A = 33.64 m/s

distance = s x t

26.41 t + 41000 = 33.64 x t

7.23 t = 41000

t = 5670.82 s

time taken by Car B to cross Car A is equal to t = 5670.82 s

distance traveled by car A

D = s x t = 26.41 x 5670.82 = 149766.25 m = 149.76 Km

b) distance travel by the car B in 30 s after overtaking car A

D' = s x t = 33.64 x 30 = 1009.2 m = 1 Km

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The number of bright fringes per unit width on the screen is, $x=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}$

Explanation:

If d is the separation between slits, D is the distance between the slit and the screen and $\lambda$ is the wavelength of the light. Let x is the number of bright fringes per unit width on the screen is given by :

$x=\dfrac{n\lambda D}{d}$

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

n is the order

If n = 1,

$x=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}$

So, the the number of bright fringes per unit width on the screen is $\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}$ . Hence, the correct option is (B).

A bicyclist travels 4.5 km west, then travels 6.7 km at an angle 27.0 degrees South of West. What is the magnitude of the bicycl

Dimas [21]

Answer:

10.90km

Explanation:

Magnitude of the total displacement is expressed using the equation

d = √dx²+dy²

dx is the horizontal component of the displacement

dy is the vertical component of the displacement

dy = -6.7sin27°

dy = -6.7(0.4539)

dy = -3.042

For the horizontal component of the displacement

dx = -4.5 - 6.7cos27

dx = -4.5 -5.9697

dx = -10.4697

Get the magnitude of the bicyclist's total displacement

Recall that: d = √dx²+dy²

d = √(-3.042)²+(-10.4697)²

d = √9.2538+109.6146

d = √118.8684

d = 10.90km

Hence the magnitude of the bicyclist's total displacement is 10.90km
