For a short period of time, the frictional driving force acting on the wheels of the 2.5-Mg van is N= 600t^2 , where t is in seconds. If the van has a speed of 20 km/h when t = 0, determine its speed when t = 5
Explanation:
Mass m = 2500kg
Speed v1 = 20km/h = 20/3.6 m/s = 5.556 m/s
To determine speed v2;
Using the principle of momentum and impulse;
mv1 + ∫₀⁵ F dt = mv2
Explanation:
Total Internal Reflection (TIR) is a phenomenon in optics, by which light experiences complete reflection at an interface between two media.
In the figure i > © experience total internal reflection
Answer:
1) d
2) 5 m/s
3) 100
Explanation:
The equation of position x for a constant acceleration a and an initial velocity v₀, initial position x₀, time t is:
(i) 
The equation for velocity v and a constant acceleration a is:
(ii) 
1) Solve equation (ii) for acceleration a and plug the result in equation (i)
(iii) 
(iv) 
Simplify equation (iv) and use the given values v = 0, x₀ = 0:
(v) 
2) Given v₀= 3m/s, a=0.2m/s², t=10 s. Using equation (ii) to get the final velocity v:
3) Given v₀=0m/s, t₁=10s, t₂=1s and x₀=0. Looking for factor f = x(t₁)/x(t₂) using equation(i) to calculate x(t₁) and x(t₂):

Answer:
Explanation:
Remark
This is a second class lever. It is much more efficient than the fishing pole problem. All distances are measured from the pivot in these kinds of questions.
Givens
d1 = 1.5
d2 = ?
m1 = 50 kg
m2 = 30 kg
The lighter child will have to sit further away from the pivot to make the two conditions equal.
Formula
d1*m1 = d2*m2
1.5*50 = d2 * 30
75 = 30 * d2
75/30 = d2
d2 = 2.5
Remark
Notice that the distance is longer for the lighter child. The fact that these are masses and not forces does not matter, but you should take note of it. There is a difference between masses and forces. See the fishing pole problem.
Answer to the multiple Choice question. No motion on this kind of problem means equal moments. The answer is D
Problem 2
1) The wheels are further apart making B more stable. The wider the distance the wheels are apart, the harder it would be to tip the concrete mixer over
2) The center of gravity is lower. The higher the force is the more chance you have of exerting an external force to tip the mixer over.
