Answer:

- 0.8333 m/s^2

Explanation:

the equation for calculating acceleration that I have used is

(V2-V1)/t

where V2 is the final recorded velocity and V1 is the initial velocity and t is the duration of the acceleration.

which you plug the numbers in (15 - 25)/12 = 10/12 and because you are slowing down, it should be negative

I am in highschool honors physics so I am not college leveled, I might be wrong but I hope this is useful,

Answer:at 21.6 min they were separated by 12 km

Explanation:

We can consider the next diagram

B2------15km/h------->Dock

|

|

B1 at 20km/h

|

|

V

So by the time B1 leaves, being B2 traveling at constant 15km/h and getting to the dock one hour later means it was at 15km from the dock, the other boat, B1 is at a distance at a given time, considering constant speed of 20km/h*t going south, where t is in hours, meanwhile from the dock the B2 is at a distance of (15km-15km/h*t), t=0, when it is 8pm.

Then we have a right triangle and the distance from boat B1 to boat B2, can be measured as the square root of (15-15*t)^2 +(20*t)^2. We are looking for a minimum, then we have to find the derivative with respect to t. This is 5*(25*t-9)/(sqrt(25*t^2-18*t+9)), this derivative is zero at t=9/25=0,36 h = 21.6 min, now to be sure it is a minimum we apply the second derivative criteria that states that if the second derivative at the given critical point is positive it means here we have a minimum, and by calculating the second derivative we find it is 720/(25 t^2 - 18 t + 9)^(3/2) that is positive at t=9/25, then we have our answer. And besides replacing the value of t we get the distance is 12 km.

A truck with 0.420-m-radius tires travels at 32.0 m/s. what is the angular velocity of the rotating tires in radians per second?
andrey2020 [161]

Angular velocity of the rotating tires can be calculated using the formula,

v=ω×r

Here, v is the velocity of the tires = 32 m/s

r is the radius of the tires= 0.42 m

ω is the angular velocity

Substituting the values we get,

32=ω×0.42

ω= 32/0.42 = 76.19 rad/s

= 76.19×\frac{1}{2\pi} *60 revolution per min

=728 rpm

Angular velocity of the rotating tires is 76.19 rad/s or 728 rpm.
