Answer:

20 m/s

Explanation:

Step 1

Find the acceleration

We calculate the acceleration of the vehicle travelled

= Speed/Time

Initial speed = 40 m/s

Tims = 5 seconds

Acceleration = 40m/s/ 5s

Acceleration = 8 m/s²

Step 2

Find the distance travelled

Distance travelled = 1/2 × a × t²

= 1/2 × 8 m/s² × 5²

= 100 meters

Step 3

Find the average speed

The average speed = Distance/time

= 100 meters/5 seconds

= 20 meters per second (m/s)

A brave child decides to grab onto an already spinning merry‑go‑round. The child is initially at rest and has a mass of 34.5 kg.
rodikova [14]

Answer:

the moment of inertia of the merry go round is 38.04 kg.m²

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial angular velocity; ω_1 = 37 rpm

Final angular velocity; ω_2 = 19 rpm

mass of child; m = 15.5 kg

distance from the centre; r = 1.55 m

Now, let the moment of inertia of the merry go round be I.

Using the principle of conservation of angular momentum, we have;

I_1 = I_2

Thus,

Iω_1 = I'ω_2

where I' is the moment of inertia of the merry go round and child which is given as I' = mr²

Thus,

I x 37 = ( I + mr²)19

37I = ( I + (15.5 x 1.55²))19

37I = 19I + 684.7125

37I - 19 I = 684.7125

18I = 684.7125

I = 684.7125/18

I = 38.04 kg.m²

Thus, the moment of inertia of the merry go round is 38.04 kg.m²

A 6.00 kg object is lifted vertically through a distance of 5.25 m by a light string under a tension of 80.0 N. Find: (2 marks)
jeka57 [31]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mas of the object, m = 6 kg

It is lifted through a distance, h = 5.25 m

Tension in the string, T = 80 N

(a) By considering the free body diagram of the object, the forces can be equated as :

T-mg=ma

a=\dfrac{T-mg}{m}

a=\dfrac{80-6\times 9.8}{6}

a=3.33\ m/s^2

Work done by tension, W_t=F\times h

W_t=80\times 5.25

W_t=420\ J

(b) Work done by gravity, W_g=mgh

W_g=6\times 9.8\times 5.25

W_g=308.7\ J

(c) Let v is the final speed of the object and u = 0

v=\sqrt{2ah}

v=\sqrt{2\times 3.33\times 5.25}

v = 5.91 m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.
