Answer:
a)Distance traveled during the first second = 4.905 m.
b)Final velocity at which the object hits the ground = 38.36 m/s
c)Distance traveled during the last second of motion before hitting the ground = 33.45 m
Explanation:
a) We have equation of motion
S = ut + 0.5at²
Here u = 0, and a = g
S = 0.5gt²
Distance traveled during the first second ( t =1 )
S = 0.5 x 9.81 x 1² = 4.905 m
Distance traveled during the first second = 4.905 m.
b) We have equation of motion
v² = u² + 2as
Here u = 0, s= 75 m and a = g
v² = 0² + 2 x g x 75 = 150 x 9.81
v = 38.36 m/s
Final velocity at which the object hits the ground = 38.36 m/s
c) We have S = 0.5gt²
75 = 0.5 x 9.81 x t²
t = 3.91 s
We need to find distance traveled last second
That is
S = 0.5 x 9.81 x 3.91² - 0.5 x 9.81 x 2.91² = 33.45 m
Distance traveled during the last second of motion before hitting the ground = 33.45 m
Answer:
a) 141.6m
b) 8.4m/s
Explanation:
a) to find the total displacement you use the following formula for each trajectory. Next you sum the results:
hence, the total distance is 141.6m
b) the mean velocity of the total trajectory is given by:
hence, the mean velocity is 8.4 m/s
Answer:
v = 2.94 m/s
Explanation:
When the spring is compressed, its potential energy is equal to (1/2)kx^2, where k is the spring constant and x is the distance compressed. At this point there is no kinetic energy due to there being no movement, meaning the net energy in the system is (1/2)kx^2.
Once the spring leaves the system, it will be moving at a constant velocity v, if friction is ignored. At this time, its kinetic energy will be (1/2)mv^2. It won't have any spring potential energy, making the net energy (1/2)mv^2.
Because of the conservation of energy, these two values can be set equal to each other, since energy will not be gained or lost while the spring is decompressing. That means
(1/2)kx^2 = (1/2)mv^2
kx^2 = mv^2
v^2 = (kx^2)/m
v = sqrt((kx^2)/m)
v = x * sqrt(k/m)
v = 0.122 * sqrt(125/0.215) <--- units converted to m and kg
v = 2.94 m/s
Linear motion (also called rectilinear motion) is a motion along a straight line, and can therefore be described mathematically using only one spatial dimension.
