A train started from rest and moved with constant acceleration. At one time it was traveling 27 m/s, and 150 m farther on it was

traveling 54 m/s. Calculate (a) the acceleration, (b) the time required to travel the 150 m mentioned, (c) the time required to attain the speed of 27 m/s, and (d) the distance moved from rest to the time the train had a speed of 27 m/s.

Explanation:

(a) Given:

Δx = 150 m

v₀ = 27 m/s

v = 54 m/s

Find: a

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(54 m/s)² = (27 m/s)² + 2a (150 m)

a = 7.29 m/s²

(b) Given:

Δx = 150 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 7.29 m/s²

Find: t

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

150 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (7.29 m/s²) t²

t = 6.42 s

(c) Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

v = 27 m/s

a = 7.29 m/s²

Find: t

v = at + v₀

27 m/s = (7.29 m/s²) t + 0 m/s

t = 3.70 s

(d) Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

v = 27 m/s

a = 7.29 m/s²

Find: Δx

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(27 m/s)² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (7.29 m/s²) Δx

Δx = 50 m

An airplane has a takeoff speed of 62 m/s. assuming a constant acceleration of 1.7 m/s2, what is the minimum length of runway it
UkoKoshka [18]

Data:

u=0 m/s is the initial velocity of the plane

v=62 m/s is the final velocity of the plane (at which the plane takes off)

a=1.7 m/s^2 is the acceleration of the plane

To find the minimum distance S the plane needs to take off, we can use the following equation:

2aS=v^2 -u^2

Re-arranging it and substituting the numbers, we find

S=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}=\frac{(62 m/s)^2-0}{2(1.7 m/s^2)}=1131 m

Pretty sure it’s C. all the others are speeding up. acceleration means gradually (over time) getting faster. So it’s C.

Using monochromatic light of 410 nm wavelength, a single thin slit forms a diffraction pattern, with the first minimum at an ang
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

c. 307 nm

Explanation:

angular position of first dark fringe =  λ / d ,   λ is wavelength and  d is width of slit .

(40 x π ) / 180 = 410 / d

angular position of second  dark fringe =  2 x λ / d ,   λ is wavelength and  d is width of slit .

(60 x π ) / 180 = 2 x λ / d

Dividing these equations

60 / 40 =  2 x λ / 410

λ = 307.5 nm.
