Answer:

x = 1.6 + 1.7 t^2 omitting signs

a) at t = 0 x = 1.6 m

b) V = d x / d t = 3.4 t

at t = 0 V = 0

c) A = d^2 x / d t^2 = 3.4 (at t = 0 A = 3.4 m/s^2)

d) x = 1.6 + 1.7 * (4.4)^2 = 34.5 (position at 4.4 sec = 34.5 m)

2200 kg semi truck driving down the highway has lost control. The truck rolls across the median and into oncoming traffic. The t

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.

Explanation:

In this exercise we see a case of an entirely inellastic collision between the semi truck and the car, which can be described by the following equation derived from Principle of Linear Momentum Conservation: (We assume that velocity oriented northwards is positive)

$m_{S}\cdot v_{S}+m_{C}\cdot v_{C} = (m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v$ (1)

Where:

$m_{S}$ , $m_{C}$ - Masses of the semi truck and the car, measured in kilograms.

$v_{S}$ , $v_{C}$ - Initial velocities of the semi truck and the car, measured in meters per second.

$v$ - Final speed of the system after collision, measured in meters per second.

If we know that $m_{S} = 2200\,kg$ , $m_{C} = 2000\,kg$ , $v_{C} = 45\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $v = -15\,\frac{m}{s}$ , then the initial velocity of the semi truck is:

$m_{S}\cdot v_{S} = (m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v -m_{C}\cdot v_{C}$

$v_{S} = \frac{(m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v - m_{C}\cdot v_{C}}{m_{S}}$

$v_{S} = \left(1+\frac{m_{C}}{m_{S}} \right)\cdot v - \frac{m_{C}}{m_{S}} \cdot v_{C}$

$v_{S} = v +\frac{m_{C}}{m_{S}}\cdot (v-v_{C})$

$v_{S} = -15\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(\frac{2000\,kg}{2200\,kg} \right) \cdot \left(-15\,\frac{m}{s}-45\,\frac{m}{s} \right)$

$v_{S} = -69.545\,\frac{m}{s}$

The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

4.41 m/s^2

Explanation:

(v_f)^2 - (v_i)^2 = 2a * change in distance

(21)^2 - (0)^2 = 2a * 50

a = (21^2)/(2*50)

a = 4.41 m/s^2

zzz [600]

The whistling sound from the hearing aids represents that your hearing aids is working perfectly ad is known as the "feedback". So, the given statement is true.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

It's often sounds irritating when a hearing aids of your grandpa or Grandma whistles. especially, when they put them out of their ears. Actually, this feedback sound from hearing aids occur when the sounds from the outer side bounces back to the microphone of the hearing aids.

The sound bounces back when it doesn't gets inside of your ear canal so that one can hear the sound through the hearing aid. When the sounds bounces back in the hearing aid, it get re-amplified and thus we hear the whistle sound which is known as the feedback of the device.

It's not always the feedback sound though. Sometimes the device whistles when it has some mechanical defect or when one hugs the other one or water gets inside and damaged the whole system.
