Suppose two children push horizontally, but in exactly opposite directions, on a third child in a wagon. The first child exerts

Nata [24]

(a) The system of interest if the acceleration of the child in the wagon is to be calculated are the wagon and the children outside the wagon.

(b) The acceleration of the child-wagon system is 0.33 m/s².

(c) Acceleration of the child-wagon system is zero when the frictional force is 21 N.

<h3>Net force on the third child</h3>

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

∑F = ma

where;

∑F is net force
m is mass of the third child
a is acceleration of the third child

∑F = 96 N - 75 N - 12 N = 9 N

Thus, the system of interest if the acceleration of the child in the wagon is to be calculated are;

the wagon
the children outside the wagon

<h3>Acceleration of the child and wagon system</h3>

a = ∑F/m

a = 9 N / 27 kg

a = 0.33 m/s²

<h3>When the frictional force is 21 N</h3>

∑F = 96 N - 75 N - 21 N = 0 N

a = ∑F/m

a = 0/27 kg

a = 0 m/s²

A professional racecar driver buys a car that can accelerate at 5.9 m/s2. The racer decides to race against another driver in a

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

(a) Time will be t = 3.56 sec

(b) Distance traveled by car when they are side by side is 37.38712 m

(b) Velocity of race car = 21.004 m/sec

velocity of stock car = 12.816 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given acceleration of the car $a_1=5.9m/sec^2$

Acceleration of the stock car $a_2=3.6m/sec^2$

When 1st car overtakes the second car then distance traveled by both the car will be same

(a) So $s_1=s_2$

As both car starts from rest so initial velocity of both car will be 0 m/sec

It is given that stock car leaves 1 sec before

So $\frac{1}{2}\times 5.9\times t^2=\frac{1}{2}\times (t+1)^2\times 3.6$

After solving t = 3.56 sec

(b) From second equation of motion $s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2=0\times 3.56+\frac{1}{2}\times 5.9\times 3.56^2=37.38712m$

(c) From first equation pf motion v = u+at

So velocity of race car v = 0+5.9×3.56 = 21.004 m/sec

Velocity of stock car v = 0+ 3.6×3.56 = 12.816 m/sec
