An object is accelerating at -6.2 m/s? It comes to a stop after 2.0 seconds. What was its initial velocity?

Physics

Answer:

C. 12.4 m/s

Explanation:

Acceleration (a) = -6.2 m/s²

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (Comes to rest)

Time taken (t) = 2.0 s

By using equation of motion, we get:

\bf \longrightarrow v = u + at \\  \\  \rm \longrightarrow 0 = u  + ( - 6.2)(2.0) \\  \\  \rm \longrightarrow 0 = u - 12.4 \\  \\  \rm \longrightarrow u - 12.4 = 0 \\  \\  \rm \longrightarrow u + 12.4 - 12.4 = 0 + 12.4 \\  \\  \rm \longrightarrow u = 12.4 \: m {s}^{ - 1}

\therefore Initial velocity (u) = 12.4 m/s

tekilochka [14]
The integral of acceleration is velocity. The area under the curve is an integral. You can see the relation here. So just take the area under those time intervals. I’m assuming 1.7 is where it crosses the x-axis

For the first interval:
Base = 1.7
Height = -2
[1.7*(-2)]/2 = -1.7 cm/s

For the second interval:
There are two triangles and a rectangle here.
Base #1 = 0.3
Height #1 = 1

Base #2 = 1
Height #2 = 1

Length = 3
Width = 1

Apply the area formulas to get an answer of 3.65 cm/s

A piano tuner strikes a tuning fork at the same time he strikes a piano key with a note of a similar pitch. If he hears 3 beats
DaniilM [7]
The frequency produced by the string could be 437 Hz or it could be 443 Hz.

The frequency of the beats ... 3 Hz ... tells the piano tuner that
the difference between the fork and string frequencies is 3 Hz,
but it doesn't tell her which one is higher or lower.

Calculate the speed of a 500.0 kilogram car that possesses 400,000 joules of kinetic energy.
lozanna [386]

Answer: 40m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

speed of car (v) = ?

Mass of car (m) = 500.0 kilogram

Kinetic energy (KE) = 400,000 joules

Recall that kinetic energy is possessed by a moving object, and it depends on the mass and speed by which the object moves

i.e Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

400,000J = 1/2 x 500.0kg x v²

400,000J = 250.0kg x v²

v² = 400,000J / 250.0kg

v² = 1600

Find the square root of v²

v = √1600

v = 40m/s

Thus, the speed of the car is 40m/s
