A space vehicle accelerates uniformly from 85 m/s at t = 0 to 164 m/s at t = 10.0 s .How far did it move between t = 2.0 s and t

creativ13 [48]

First, we have a change in the velocity from 85 to 164 m/s in 10 sec.

Then, we calculate the <u>acceleration </u>as:

$a=\frac{v_{f}-v_{i} }{t} =\frac{164-85}{10}=7.9 m/s^2$

Hence we need to calculate the velocity of the space vehicle at t = 2 sec using the first equation of motion:

$v_{f}=v_{i}+at=85+7.9*2=100.8m/s$

Then, using the second equation of motion to calculate the distance:

$d=v_{i} t+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

$d=100.8*2+\frac{1}{2}*7.9*(2)^2=217.4m$

Answer:

D. Friction

Explanation:

Friction is a force that opposes motion. So a perpetual motion machine can never be built because it is impossible to eliminate frictional force. It can only be reduced

A 10.0 kg weather rocket generates a thrust of 230 NN . The rocket, pointing upward, is clamped to the top of a vertical spring.

blondinia [14]

Answer: 0.2m

Explanation: Firstly only the Rocket's Weight Compress the spring which can be found by

$F_r=M_r*g\\F_r=10*9.81\\F_r=98.1N$

According to Hooks Law

$F_r=k*x\\x=F_r/k\\x=98.1/480\\x=0.2m$

A wave pulse travels down a slinky. The mass of the slinky is m = 0.87 kg and is initially stretched to a length L = 6.8 m. The

Ber [7]

Answer:

1. $v=14.2259\ m.s^{-1}$

2. $F_T=25.8924\ N$

3. $\lambda=29.6373\ m$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of slinky, $m=0.87\ kg$

length of slinky, $L=6.8\ m$

amplitude of wave pulse, $A=0.23\ m$

time taken by the wave pulse to travel down the length, $t=0.478\ s$

frequency of wave pulse, $f=0.48\ Hz=0.48\ s^{-1}$

1.

$\rm Speed\ of\ wave\ pulse=Length\ of\ slinky\div time\ taken\ by\ the\ wave\ to\ travel$

$v=\frac{6.8}{0.478}$

$v=14.2259\ m.s^{-1}$

2.

<em>Now, we find the linear mass density of the slinky.</em>

$\mu=\frac{m}{L}$

$\mu=\frac{0.87}{6.8}\ kg.m^{-1}$

We have the relation involving the tension force as:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{F_T}{\mu} }$

$14.2259=\sqrt{\frac{F_T}{\frac{0.87}{6.8}} }$

$202.3774=F_T\times \frac{6.8}{0.87}$

$F_T=25.8924\ N$

3.

We have the relation for wavelength as:

$\lambda=\frac{v}{f}$

$\lambda=\frac{14.2259}{0.48}$

$\lambda=29.6373\ m$
