If a car is traveling forward at 15 m/s, how fast will it be going in 1.2 seconds if the acceleration is

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

v = v⁰ (its original speed) + a (negative acceleration) X t² (time)

v = 15 - 10 x 1.2 = 15 - 12 = 3 (it's slowing down)

24. An elevator is moving vertically up with an acceleration a. The force exerted on the floor by a passenger of mass m is

Wewaii [24]

Given :-

An elevator is moving vertically up with an acceleration a.

To Find :-

The force exerted on the floor by a passenger of mass m .

Solution :-

As the man is in a accelerated frame that is non inertial frame , we would have to think of a pseudo force .

The direction of this force is opposite to the direction of acceleration the frame and its magnitude is equal to the product of mass of the concerned body with the acceleration of the frame .

For the FBD refer to the attachment . From that ,

$\implies Weight_{apparent}= mg + ma$

Hence option d is correct choice .

I hope this helps .

Two boats - Boat A and Boat B - are anchored a distance of 24 meters apart. The incoming water waves force the boats to oscillat

ozzi

Answer:

wavelength = 24 m

Period = 10 s

f = 0.1 Hz

Amplitude = 4 m

Explanation:

Wavelength:

Since the boats are at crest and trough, respectively at the same time. Hence, the horizontal distance between them is the wavelength of the wave:

wavelength = 24 m

Period:

The period is given as:

$Period = \frac{time}{no.\ of\ cycles} \\\\Period = \frac{10\ s}{1}\\\\$

Period = 10 s

Frequency:

The frequency is given as:

$f = \frac{1}{time\ period}\\\\f = \frac{1}{10\ s}\\\\$

f = 0.1 Hz

Amplitude:

Amplitude will be half the distance between extreme points, that is, crest and trough:

Amplitude = 8 m/2

Amplitude = 4 m

Question 1 of 4 Attempt 4 The acceleration due to gravity, ???? , is constant at sea level on the Earth's surface. However, the

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

g(h) = g ( 1 - 2(h/R) )

*At first order on h/R*

Explanation:

Hi!

We can derive this expression for distances h small compared to the earth's radius R.

In order to do this, we must expand the newton's law of universal gravitation around r=R

Remember that this law is:

$F = G \frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}$

In the present case m1 will be the mass of the earth.

Additionally, if we remember Newton's second law for the mass m2 (with m2 constant):

$F = m_2a$

Therefore, we can see that

$a(r) = G \frac{m_1}{r^2}$

With a the acceleration due to the earth's mass.

Now, the taylor series is going to be (at first order in h/R):

$a(R+h) \approx a(R) + h \frac{da(r)}{dr}_{r=R}$

a(R) is actually the constant acceleration at sea level

and

$a(R) =G \frac{m_1}{R^2} \\ \frac{da(r)}{dr}_{r=R} = -2 G\frac{m_1}{R^3}$

Therefore:

$a(R+h) \approx G\frac{m_1}{R^2} -2G\frac{m_1}{R^2} \frac{h}{R} = g(1-2\frac{h}{R})$

Consider that the error in this expresion is quadratic in (h/R), and to consider quadratic correctiosn you must expand the taylor series to the next power:

$a(R+h) \approx a(R) + h \frac{da(r)}{dr}_{r=R} + \frac{h^2}{2!} \frac{d^2a(r)}{dr^2}_{r=R}$
