Answer:

1. The final velocity of the truck is 15 m/s

2. The distance travelled by the truck is 37.5 m

Explanation:

1. Determination of the final velocity

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 3 m/s²

Time (t) = 5 s

Final velocity (v) =?

The final velocity of the truck can be obtained as follow:

v = u + at

v = 0 + (3 × 5)

v = 0 + 15

v = 15 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the truck is 15 m/s

2. Determination of the distance travelled

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 3 m/s²

Time (t) = 5 s

Distance (s) =?

The distance travelled by the truck can be obtained as follow:

s = ut + ½at²

s = (0 × 5) + (½ × 3 × 5²)

s = 0 + (½ × 3 × 25)

s = 0 + 37.5

s = 37.5 m

Therefore, the distance travelled by the truck is 37.5 m

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

t=17.838s

Explanation:

The displacement is divided in two sections, the first is a section with constant acceleration, and the second one with constant velocity. Let's consider the first:

The acceleration is, by definition:

a=\frac{dv}{dt}=1.76

So, the velocity can be obtained by integrating this expression:

v=1.76t

The velocity is, by definition: v=\frac{dx}{dt}, so

dx=1.76tdt\\x=1.76\frac{t^{2}}{2}.

Do x=11 in order to find the time spent.

11=1.76\frac{t^2}{2}\\ t^2=\frac{2*11}{76} \\t=\sqrt{12.5}=3.5355s

At this time the velocity is: v=1.76t=1.76*3.5355s=6.2225\frac{m}{s}

This velocity remains constant in the section 2, so for that section the movement equation is:

x=v*t\\t=\frac{x}{v}

The left distance is 89 meters, and the velocity is 6.2225\frac{m}{s}, so:

t=\frac{89}{6.2225}=14.303s

So, the total time is 14.303+3.5355s=17.838s

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

1.034m/s

Explanation:

We define the two moments to develop the problem. The first before the collision will be determined by the center of velocity mass, while the second by the momentum preservation. Our values are given by,

m_1 = 65000kg\\v_1 = 0.8m/s\\m_2 = 92000kg\\v_2 = 1.2m/s

<em>Part A)</em> We apply the center of mass for velocity in this case, the equation is given by,

V_{cm} = \frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

Substituting,

V_{cm} = \frac{(65000*0.8)+(92000*1.2)}{92000+65000}

V_{cm} = 1.034m/s

Part B)

For the Part B we need to apply conserving momentum equation, this formula is given by,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f

Where here v_f is the velocity after the collision.

v_f = \frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

v_f = \frac{(65000*0.8)+(92000*1.2)}{92000+65000}

v_f = 1.034m/s

If you are at latitude 43 degrees north of Earth's equator, what is the angular distance (in degrees) from your zenith to the no
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Your zenith is 43 N of 90 deg (equator)

Thus, your zenith is 90 - 43 = 47 deg

(At the N pole your zenith would be 0 deg from the N pole)
