Answer:

East

Explanation:

In circular motion, the velocity of the object will always be tangential to the radius of the circle. In this case, since the car is at the northernmost point of the circular track, then it must be moving right or towards the east, no matter what the acceleration might be at that very moment or what the radius of the track is. If it's moving clockwise, then it moves right (towards the east).

A Plane has a takeoff speed of 150 m/s and requires 1500m to reach that speed. Determine the acceleration of the plane and the t
mars1129 [50]

<u>Answer:</u>

The acceleration of the plane and the time required to reach this speed is  (a)= 7.5 m/sec^2 and time(t) = 20 seconds  

<u>Explanation: </u>

Given data Initial velocity (V_i) = 0  

Final velocity (V_f) = 150 m/second

Distance (d) = 1500 m

We have the formula,  $\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{f}}^{2}=\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{i}}^{2}+2 \mathrm{ad}$

which gives 150^2 = 0+2a(1500)    

22500 = 3000 a  

acceleration (a) = 7.5 m/s^2

$\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{f}}=\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{i}}+\mathrm{at}$

150 = 7.5 t

t= 150/7.5 = 20

t = 20 seconds.

A particle's position along the x-axis is described by. x(t)= At+Bt^2where t is In seconds: x is in meters: and the constants A
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer

given,

position of particle

x(t)= A t + B t²

A = -3.5 m/s

B = 3.9 m/s²

t = 3 s

a)  x(t)= -3.5 t + 3.9 t²

   velocity of the particle is equal to the differentiation of position w.r.t. time.

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=\dfrac{d}{dt}(-3.5t + 3.9t^2)

v= -3.5 + 7.8 t------(1)

velocity of the particle at t = 3 s

  v = -3.5 + 7.8 x 3

 v = 19.9 m/s

b) velocity of the particle at origin

  time at which particle is at origin

  x(t)= -3.5 t + 3.9 t²

   0 = t (-3.5  + 3.9 t )

   t = 0, t=\dfrac{3.5}{3.9}

   t = 0 , 0.897 s

speed of the particle at t = 0.897 s

from equation (1)

 v = -3.9 + 7.8 t

 v = -3.9 + 7.8 x 0.897

  v = 3.1 m/s
