(1) A net force of 265 N accelerates a bike and rider at 2.30 m/s. What is the mass of the
kati45 [8]

Answer: 115.2kg

Explanation:

Net force = 265 N

Acceleration of bike & rider = 2.30m/s2 (The SI unit of acceleration is m/s2)

Mass of the bike and rider together = ?

Since force is the product of the mass of an object and the acceleration by which it moves, Force = Mass x Acceleration

265N = Mass x 2.30m/s2

Mass = (265N/2.30m/s2)

Mass = 115.2 kg

Thus, the Mass of the bike and rider together is 115.2kg

Ben Rushin is waiting at a stop light. Turns green, ben accelerated from rest at a rate of 6.00 m/s squared for a time of 4.10 s
Lera25 [3.4K]
D= vt +.5at^2
since he started at rest, v (initial velocity) is 0
so d=.5at^2
d = .5 (6m/s^2) (4.1s)^2 
then put that into a calculator.

A car with a velocity of 6.4 m/s, forward, accelerates to a velocity of 10.6 m/s, forward, in 16 s. What is the card acceleratio
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

acceleration = 0.2625 m/s²

Explanation:

   acceleration = ( final velocity - initial velocity ) / time

Here the final velocity is  10.6 m/s and initial velocity is 6.4 m/s and time is 16 s.

using the equation:

acceleration =  ( 10.6 - 6.4 ) / 16

                     = 0.2625 m/s²

A 15 m uniform ladder weighing 500 N rests against a frictionless wall. The ladder makes a 60° angle with horizontal. (a) Find t
scoray [572]

Answer:

a)    F₁ = 267.3 N,   N₁ = 1300 N,  b)    μ = 0.324

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the rotational equilibrium condition, we have a reference system is the floor and the anticlockwise rotations as positive, in the adjoint we can see a diagram of the forces

           

let's use subscript 1 for the ladder and 2 for the firefighter

            ∑ τ = 0

          -W₁ x₁ - W₂ x₂ + N₁ y = 0

           N₁ = \frac{W_1 x_1 + W_2 x_2}{y}          (1)

the center of mass of the ladder is at its geometric center,

d = L / 2 = 15/2 = 7.5 m

         cos 60 = x₁ / d₁

         x₁ = d₁ cos 60

         x₁ = 7.5 cos 60

         x₁ = 3.75 m

for the firefighter d₂ = 4 m

         cos 60 = x₂ / d₂

         x₂ = d₂ cos 60

          x₂ = 4 cos 60 = 2 m

for the fulcrum d₃ = 15 m

         sin 60 = y / d₃

         y = d₃ sin 60

         y = 15 sin 60

         y = 13 m

we look for the Normal by substituting in equation 1

         N₂ = \frac{500 \ 3.75 \ + 800 \ 2}{13}

         N₂ = 267.3 N

now let's use the translational equilibrium relations

 X axis

           F₁ - N₂ = 0

           F₁ = N₂

           F₁ = 267.3 N

Axis y

          N₁ - W₁ -W₂ = 0

          N₁ = W₁ + W₂

          N₁ = 500 + 800

          N₁ = 1300 N

b) for this case change the firefighter's distance d₂ = 9 m

          x₂ = 9 cos 60

          x₂ = 4.5 m

we substitute in 1

          N₂ = \frac{500 \ 3.75 \ + 800 \ 4.5}{13}  

          N₂ = 421.15 N

of the translational equilibrium equation on the x-axis

          fr = F₁ = N₂

          fr = 421.15 N

friction force has the expression

          fr = μ N

in this case the reaction of the Earth to the support of the ladder is N1 = 1300N

          μ = fr / N₁

          μ = 421.15 / 1300

          μ = 0.324

A racquetball strikes a wall with a speed of 30 m/s and rebounds in the opposite direction with a speed of 26 m/s. The collision
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The average acceleration of the ball during the collision with the wall is a=2,800m/s^{2}

Explanation:

<u>Known Data</u>

We will asume initial speed has a negative direction, v_{i}=-30m/s, final speed has a positive direction, v_{f}=26m/s, \Delta t=20ms=0.020s and mass m_{b}.

<u>Initial momentum</u>

p_{i}=mv_{i}=(-30m/s)(m_{b})=-30m_{b}\ m/s

<u>final momentum</u>

p_{f}=mv_{f}=(26m/s)(m_{b})=26m_{b}\ m/s

<u>Impulse</u>

I=\Delta p=p_{f}-p_{i}=26m_{b}\ m/s-(-30m_{b}\ m/s)=56m_{b}\ m/s

<u>Average Force</u>

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t} =\frac{56m_{b}\ m/s}{0.020s} =2800m_{b} \ m/s^{2}

<u>Average acceleration</u>

F=ma, so a=\frac{F}{m_{b}}.

Therefore, a=\frac{2800m_{b} \ m/s^{2}}{m_{b}} =2800m/s^{2}
