A dog accelerates at 1.50 m/s2 to reach a velocity of 13.5 m/s while covering a distance of 49.3 m. What was his initial velocit

Let <em>v</em> be the dog's initial velocity. Then

(13.5 m/s)^2 - <em>v</em> ^2 = 2 (1.50 m/s^2) (49.3 m)

==> <em>v</em> ^2 = (13.5 m/s)^2 - 2 (1.50 m/s^2) (49.3 m)

==> <em>v</em> = √((13.5 m/s)^2 - 2 (1.50 m/s^2) (49.3 m))

==> <em>v</em> ≈ 5.86 m/s

A watermelon is dropped from the top of a 80m tall building. We want to find the velocity of the watermelon after it falls for 1

White raven [17]

Answer:

$v_f = v_i + at$

$v_f = 13.23 m/s$

Explanation:

Height Of the watermelon when it is dropped is given as

$h = 80 m$

time of fall under gravity

$t = 1.35 s$

now if water melon start from rest then we have

$v_i = 0$

acceleration due to gravity for watermelon

$a = 9.81 m/s^2$

now we need to find the final speed of watermelon

$v_f = v_i + at$

so we will have

$v_f = 0 + (9.81)(1.35)$

$v_f = 13.23 m/s$

g Initially, the motorcycle travels along a straight road with a speed of 35 m/s (this is almost 80 mph). The maximum decelerati

astraxan [27]

Given:

Initial speed of the motorcycle (u) = 35 m/s

Final speed of the motorcycle (v) = 0 m/s (Complete Stop)

Maximum deceleration of the motorcycle (a) = -1.2 m/s²

Required Equation:

$\boxed{\bf{ v = u + at}}$

Answer:

By substituting values in the equation, we get:

$\rm \longrightarrow 0 = 35 + ( - 1.2)t \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 0 = 35 - 1.2t \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 35 - 1.2t = 0 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 35- 35 - 1.2t = 0 - 35 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow - 1.2t = - 35 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow \dfrac{ - 1.2t}{ - 1.2} = \dfrac{ - 35}{ - 1.2} \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow t = 29.167 \: s$

$\therefore$ Time taken by motorcycle to come to a complete stop (t) = 29.167 s

A car is traveling in uniform circular motion on a section of flat roadway whose radius is . The road is slippery, and the car i

Alona [7]

Answer:

The smallest radius will be four (4) times the initial radius

Explanation:

The car maintains a constant angular speed. According to Newton's Second Law F = m a

1. $F_{r}=m*A_{n}$

2. $A_{n}=\frac{v^2}{R_{p}}$

Replacing 2 in 1

3. $F_{r}=m*\frac{v^2}{R_{p}}$

Where:

Fr= Frictional force

Rp= Initial Radius

An= Centripetal Acceleration

M= Mass

V= Velocity

Also we have that:

4. $F_{r}=\mu *W=\mu*m*g$

μ= Coefficient of friction between the car and the surface

M= Mass

W= Weight

G= Gravity

r is cleared from equation 3

5. $R_{p}=m*\frac{v^2}{F_{r}}$

Replacing 4 in 5

6. $R_{p}=m*\frac{v^2}{\mu*m*g}$

Simplifying

7. $R_{p}=\frac{v^2}{\mu*g}$

Now we have a new velocity equal to twice the initial velocity, We replace it by 2v in equation 7

8. $R_{n}=\frac{(2v)^2}{\mu*g}$

Computing

9. $R_{n}=\frac{4v^2}{\mu*g}$

Replacing 5 in 9

$R_{n}=4*R_{p}$
