Answer:
a =( -0.32 i ^ - 2,697 j ^) m/s²
Explanation:
This problem is an exercise of movement in two dimensions, the best way to solve it is to decompose the terms and work each axis independently.
Break down the speeds in two moments
initial
v₀ₓ = v₀ cos θ
v₀ₓ = 5.25 cos 35.5
v₀ₓ = 4.27 m / s
= v₀ sin θ
= 5.25 sin35.5
= 3.05 m / s
Final
vₓ = 6.03 cos (-56.7)
vₓ = 3.31 m / s
= v₀ sin θ
= 6.03 sin (-56.7)
= -5.04 m / s
Having the speeds and the time, we can use the definition of average acceleration that is the change of speed in the time order
a = (
- v₀) /t
aₓ = (3.31 -4.27)/3
aₓ = -0.32 m/s²
= (-5.04-3.05)/3
= -2.697 m/s²
Answer:
0.6983 m/s
Explanation:
k = spring constant of the spring = 0.4 N/m
L₀ = Initial length = 11 cm = 0.11 m
L = Final length = 27 cm = 0.27 m
x = stretch in the spring = L - L₀ = 0.27 - 0.11 = 0.16 m
m = mass of the mass attached = 0.021 kg
v = speed of the mass
Using conservation of energy
Kinetic energy of mass = Spring potential energy
(0.5) m v² = (0.5) k x²
m v² = k x²
(0.021) v² = (0.4) (0.16)²
v = 0.6983 m/s
I'm going to assume that this gripping drama takes place on planet Earth, where the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s². The solutions would be completely different if the same scenario were to play out in other places.
A ball is thrown upward with a speed of 40 m/s. Gravity decreases its upward speed (increases its downward speed) by 9.8 m/s every second.
So, the ball reaches its highest point after (40 m/s)/(9.8 m/s²) = <em>4.08 seconds</em>. At that point, it runs out of upward gas, and begins falling.
Just like so many other aspects of life, the downward fall is an exact "mirror image" of the upward trip. After another 4.08 seconds, the ball has returned to the height of the hand which flung it. In total, the ball is in the air for <em>8.16 seconds</em> up and down.
