Which velocity graph shows the car moving toward the right (away from the origin) at a steady (constant) velocity?

Physics

Explanation:

$\text{Velocity is defined as the average displacement per unit time.}$

$\text{Since the car is moving at a steady velocity, the velocity does not change over time, it shows a horizontal line on the }v-t\text{ graph}$

$\text{Therefore, only option 2,5,8 matches this requirement.}$

$\text{Since the car is moving to the right, which is defined as the positive direction in this question, the velocity (}v\text{) is also positive.}$

$\text{Therefore, only option 5 is correct.}$

During a braking test, a car is brought to rest beginning from an initial speed of 60 mi/hr in a distance of 120 ft. With the sa

maw [93]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial speed $u=60\ mi/hr\approx 88\ ft/s$

distance traveled before coming to rest $d_1=120\ ft$

using equation of motion

$v^2-u^2=2as$

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

$0-(88)^2=2\times a\times 120---1$

for $u_2=80\ mi/hr\approx 117.33\ ft/s$

using same relation we get

$0-(117.33)^2=2\times a\times (d_2)----2$

divide 1 and 2 we get

$(\frac{88}{117.33})^2=\frac{120}{d_2}$

$d_2=213.32\ ft$

So a distance if 213.32 ft is required to stop the vehicle with 80 mph speed

A spring with spring constant 15.5 N/m hangs from the ceiling. A ball is suspended from the spring and allowed to come to rest.

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

A) 138.8g

B)73.97 cm/s

Explanation:

K = 15.5 Kn/m

A = 7 cm

N = 37 oscillations

tn = 20 seconds

A) In harmonic motion, we know that;

ω² = k/m and m = k/ω²

Also, angular frequency (ω) = 2π/T

Now, T is the time it takes to complete one oscillation.

So from the question, we can calculate T as;

T = 22/37.

Thus ;

ω = 2π/(22/37) = 10.5672

So,mass of ball (m) = k/ω² = 15.5/10.5672² = 0.1388kg or 138.8g

B) In simple harmonic motion, velocity is given as;

v(t) = vmax Sin (ωt + Φ)

It is from the derivative of;

v(t) = -Aω Sin (ωt + Φ)

So comparing the two equations of v(t), we can see that ;

vmax = Aω

Vmax = 7 x 10.5672 = 73.97 cm/s

If riding a lawnmower engine exerts 19 hp in one minute to move the lawnmower how much work is done

ioda

Answer:

the work done by the lawnmower is 236.14 J.

Explanation:

Given;

power exerted by the lawnmower engine, P = 19 hp

time in which the power was exerted, t = 1 minute = 60 s.

1 hp = 745.7 watts

The work done by the lawnmower is calculated as follows;

$Work = Energy = \frac{Power}{time} \\\\Work = \frac{(19 \times 745.7)}{60} = 236.14 \ J$

Therefore, the work done by the lawnmower is 236.14 J.

Monochromatic light falls on two very narrow slits 0.046 mm apart. Successive fringes on a screen 6.20 m away are 8.9 cm apart n

Elanso [62]

Answer:

λ = 6.602 x 10^(-7) m

Explanation:

In a double-slit interference experiment, the distance y of the maximum of order m from the center of the observed interference pattern on the screen is given as ;

y = mλD/d

Where;

D is the distance of the screen from the slits = 6.2 m

d is the distance between the two slits = 0.046 mm = 0.046 x 10^(-3) m

The fringes on the screen are 8.9 cm = 0.089 m apart from each other, this means that the first maximum (m=1) is located at y = 0.089 m from the center of the pattern.

Therefore, from the previous formula we can find the wavelength of the light:

y = mλD/d

So, λ = dy/mD

Thus,

λ = (0.046 x 10^(-3) x 0.089)/(1 x 6.2)

λ = 6.602 x 10^(-7) m
