Answer:

velocity at the top: 0 m/s

acceleration at the top: -9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Assuming up is positive and down is negative;

The velocity of the ball at the top of its path will be 0 m/s and the acceleration will be negative.

The velocity is 0 m/s because the ball does not move at the top of its path, and it switches from a positive velocity to a negative velocity. It must go through 0 in order to go from positive to negative.

The acceleration, however, is always negative no matter where the ball is in its motion. This negative acceleration causes the ball to slow down as it reaches the top, and speed up as it reaches the bottom.

Think about it: If there wasn't a negative acceleration, and it was instead 0, the ball would never come back down and instead keep going in a straight line.

eventually it will come back down?
i mean what goes up must come down!
xD

Calculate the percentage increase in speed of the cyclist when the power output changes from 200 W to 300 W.

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

Given

Initial power = 200W

Final power = 300W

Increment = 300 - 200 = 100W

percentage increase = increment/initial power * 100

percentage increase = 100/200 * 100%

percentage increase = 0.5 * 100

percentage increase = 50%

Hence the percentage increase in speed is 50%

You are coasting on your 12-kg bicycle at 13 m/s and a 5.0-g bug splatters on your helmet. The bug was initially moving at 1.5 m

Brut [27]

Answer:

a) Pi,c = 1066 kgm/s

b) Pi,b = 0.0075 kgm/s

c) ΔV = - 0.0007 m/s

d) ΔV = - 0.0008 m/s

Explanation:

Given:-

- The mass of the bicycle, mc = 12 kg

- The mass of passenger, mp = 70 kg

- The mass of the bug, mb = 5.0 g

- The initial speed of the bicycle, vpi = 13 m/s

- The initial speed of the bug, vbi = 1.5 m/s

Find:-

a.What is the initial momentum of you plus your bicycle?

b.What is the initial momentum of the bug?

c.What is your change in velocity due to the collision the bug?

d.What would the change in velocity have been if the bug were traveling in the opposite direction?

Solution:-

- First we will set our one dimensional coordinate system, taking right to be positive in the direction of bicycle.

- The initial linear momentum (Pi,c) of the passenger and the bicycle would be:

Pi,c = vpi* ( mc + mp)

Pi,c = 13* ( 12+ 70 )

Pi,c = 1066 kgm/s

- The initial linear momentum (Pi,b) of the bug would be:

Pi,b = vbi*mb

Pi,b = 0.005*1.5

Pi,b = 0.0075 kgm/s

- We will consider the bicycle, the passenger and the bug as a system in isolation on which no external unbalanced forces are acting. This validates the use of linear conservation of momentum.

- The bicycle, passenger and bug all travel in the (+x) direction after the bug splatters on the helmet.

Pi = Pf

Pi,c + Pi,b = V*(mb + mc + mp)

Where, V : The velocity of the (bicycle, passenger and bug) after collision.

1066 + 0.0075 = V*( 0.005 + 12 + 70 )

V = 1066.0075 / 82.005

V = 12.9993 m/s

- The change in velocity is Δv = 13 - 12.9993 = - 0.00070 m/s

- If the bug travels in the opposite direction then the sign of the initial momentum of the bug changes from (+) to (-).

- We will apply the linear conservation of momentum similarly.

Pi = Pf

Pi,c + Pi,b = V*(mb + mc + mp)

1066 - 0.0075 = V*( 0.005 + 12 + 70 )

V = 1065.9925 / 82.005

V = 12.99911 m/s

- The change in velocity is Δv = 13 - 12.99911 = -0.00088 m/s

Calculate the acceleration of a bus that goes

Svet_ta [14]

The acceleration of the bus is 1.11 meters per second square to the direction of motion

Explanation:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity

The formula of the acceleration is $a=\frac{v_{2}-v_{1}}{t}$ , where

$v_{1}$ is the initial velocity

$v_{2}$ is the final velocity
t is the time

A bus that goes from 10 km/h to a speed of 50 km/h in 10 seconds

→ $v_{1}$ = 10 km/h

→ $v_{2}$ = 50 km/h

→ t = 10 seconds

Change the unite of the time from seconds to hour

→ 1 hour = 60 × 60 = 3600 seconds

→ 10 seconds = $\frac{10}{3600}=\frac{1}{360}$ hour

Substitute these values in the formula of the acceleration above

→ $a=\frac{50-10}{\frac{1}{360}}$

→ a = 14400 km/h²

To change the unit of acceleration to meter per second change the

kilometer to meter and the hour to seconds

→ 1 km = 1000 m

→ 1 hour = 3600 seconds

→ $a=\frac{14400*1000}{(3600)^{2}}=\frac{10}{9}$

→ a = 1.11 m/sec².

The acceleration of the bus is 1.11 meters per second square to the direction of motion
