A car travelled a distance of 200 m with initial velocity of 216 km/hr. Calculate the acceleration

pogonyaev

Answer:

$a = 16\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

When the velocity changes uniformly, the object has a constant acceleration. The acceleration, the velocities, and the distance are related by the equation:

$v_f^2=v_o^2+2ax$

Where:

vf = final velocity

vo = initial velocity

a = acceleration

x = distance

Solving for a:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f^2-v_o^2}{2x}$

The car travels a distance of x=200 m and the velocities are:

vo = 216 Km/h

vf = 360 Km/h

Both velocities must be converted to meters by seconds.

vo = 216 Km/h *1000/3600 = 60 m/s

vf = 360 Km/h *1000/3600 = 100 m/s

The acceleration is:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{100^2-60^2}{2*200}$

$\displaystyle a=\frac{10000-3600}{400}$

$\displaystyle a=\frac{6400}{400}$

$\mathbf{a = 16\ m/s^2}$

Chapter 05, Problem 15 Multiple-Concept Example 7 and Concept Simulation 5.2 review the concepts that play a role in this proble

Llana [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The question relates to motion on a circular path .

Let the radius of the circular path be R .

The centripetal force for circular motion is provided by frictional force

frictional force is equal to μmg , where μ is coefficient of friction and mg is weight

Equating cenrtipetal force and frictionl force in the case of car A

mv² / R = μmg

R = v² /μg

= 26.8 x 26.8 / .335 x 9.8

= 218.77 m

In case of moton of car B

mv² / R = μmg

v² = μRg

= .683 x 218.77x 9.8

= 1464.35

v = 38.26 m /s .

If you push an 5 N object 2 m and then push a 10 N object 2 m. Which is TRUE?

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

You don't do the same amount of work. The work formula is F*d = W

W = work

F = force

d = the distance moved.

So you do more work when you move the 10N object because the Force (F) has doubled.
