Answer:
1. 3 m
2. 27 s
Explanation:
1. "A car traveling at +33 m/s sees a red light and has to stop. If the driver can accelerate at -5.5 m/s², how far does it travel?"
Given:
v₀ = 33 m/s
v = 0 m/s
a = -5.5 m/s²
Unknown: Δx
To determine the equation you need, look for which variable you don't have and aren't solving for. In this case, we aren't given time and aren't solving for time. So look for an equation that doesn't have t in it.
Equation: v² = v₀² + 2aΔx
Substitute and solve:
(0 m/s)² = (33 m/s)² + 2(-5.5 m/s²) Δx
Δx = 3 m
2. "A plane starting from rest at one end of a runway accelerates at 4.8 m/s² for 1800 m. How long did it take to accelerate?"
Given:
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 4.8 m/s²
Δx = 1800 m
Unknown: t
Equation: Δx = v₀ t + ½ a t²
Substitute and solve:
1800 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (4.8 m/s²) t²
t ≈ 27 s
Answer:
By 16.7% or 0.167 IPM
Explanation:
Substracting the final IPM (6.088) to the initial IPM (5.921) gives us the net difference, which is how much did it increase in IPM. Multiplying this number by 100 gives us the percentual increase in the feed rate.
Answer:d
Explanation:
It is good to extend your bare hand forward when you are getting ready to catch a fast-moving ball so you can pull your hand back, increasing the time to slow the ball thus decreasing the force.
While catching impulse is being transferred to hands imparting great force, lowering hand would increase the time so that average force decreases and chances to drop the ball also decreases.
