A 1400 kg car is moving at 33.8 m/s when a force is applied the opposite direction of the car's motion. The car slows down to 21

.4 m/s . the force is applied for what is the magnitude of the force?

Solve for acceleration:

<em>a</em> = (21.4 m/s - 33.8 m/s) / (4.7 s)

<em>a</em> ≈ -2.6 m/s²

Solve for force:

<em>F</em> = (1400 kg) <em>a</em> ≈ -3700 N

The minus sign tells you the force points in the opposite direction of the car's motion. Its magnitude is always positive, so <em>F</em> = 3700 N.

A bird watcher meanders through the woods, walking 1.93 km due east, 1.03 km due south, and 3.84 km in a direction 52.8 ° north
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Magnitude of displacement = 2.07 km

Magnitude of average velocity = 1.17 kmph

Explanation:

Let east represent positive x axis and north represent positive y axis.

A bird watcher meanders through the woods, walking 1.93 km due east, 1.03 km due south, and 3.84 km in a direction 52.8 ° north of west.

1.93 km due wast

           s ₁ = 1.93 i km

1.03 km due south

           s₂ = -1.03 j km

3.84 km in a direction 52.8 ° north of west

           s₃ = -3.84 cos 52.8 i + 3.84 sin 52.8 j = -2.32 i + 3.06 j km

Total displacement

          s = s ₁+  s₂+ s₃ = 1.93 i - 1.03 j -2.32 i + 3.06 j = -0.39 i + 2.03 j

  Magnitude of displacement, =\sqrt{(-0.39)^2+2.03^2}=2.07km

Time taken = 1.771 hour

Magnitude of average velocity, =\frac{2.07}{1.771}=1.17km/hr

The following represents a mass attached to a spring oscillating in simple harmonic motion. X(t) = 4.0 cos(3.0t +0.10) units of
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

a) A = 4.0 m , b)   w = 3.0 rad / s , c)  f = 0.477 Hz , d) T = 20.94 s

Explanation:

The equation that describes the oscillatory motion is

          x = A cos (wt + fi)

In the exercise we are told that the expression is

          x = 4.0 cos (3.0 t + 0.10)

let's answer the different questions

a) the amplitude is

         A = 4.0 m

b) the frequency or angular velocity

         w = 3.0 rad / s

c) angular velocity and frequency are related

          w = 2π f

           f = w / 2π

           f = 3 / 2π

           f = 0.477 Hz

d) the period

frequency and period are related

           T = 1 / f

           T = 1 / 0.477

           T = 20.94 s

e) the phase constant

          Ф = 0.10 rad

f) velocity is defined by

          v = dx / dt

         

         v = - A w sin (wt + Ф)

speed is maximum when sine is + -1

         v = A w

          v = 4 3

          v = 12 m / s

g) the angular velocity is

          w² = k / m

          k = m w²

          k = 1.2 3²

          k = 10.8 N / m

h) the total energy of the oscillator is

          Em = ½ k A²

           Em = ½ 10.8 4²

          Em = 43.2 J

i) the potential energy is

           Ke = ½ k x²

for t = 0 x = 4 cos (0 + 0.1)

               x = 3.98 m

j) kinetic energy

           K = ½ m v²

for t = 00.1 ²

    v = A w sin 0.10

    v = 4 3 sin 0.10

    v = 1.98 m / s

What is the purpose of a lanyard attached to an ignition safety switch??
raketka [301]
So we want to know what is the purpose of a lanyard attached to a safety switch. So in case the operator falls overboard a safety switch is installed and connected to the operators hand or waist. Which ever is more practical. This safety switch turns off the motor.

A time-varying horizontal force F(t) = At4 + Bt2 acts for 0.500 s on a 12.25-kg object, starting attime t = 1.00 s. In the SI sy
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

3.82 Ns

Explanation:

Time varying horizontal Force is given as

F(t) = A t⁴ + B t²

F(t) = 4.50 t⁴ + 8.75 t²

Impulse imparted is given as

I = \int_{0}^{t}Fdt

I = \int_{0}^{1}Fdt

I = \int_{0}^{1}(4.50 t^{4} + 8.75 t^{2})dt

I = ((0.9) (1)^{5} + (2.92) (1)^{3})

I = 3.82 N-s
