A motorcycle, which has an initial linear speed of 9.7 m/s, decelerates to a speed of 4.0 m/s in 4.4 s. Each wheel has a radius

of 0.61 m and is rotating in a counterclockwise (positive) directions.
What is (a) the constant angular acceleration (in rad/s2) and (b) the angular displacement (in rad) of each wheel?

Hi there!

We can begin by solving for the linear acceleration as we are given sufficient values to do so.

We can use the following equation:

vf = vi + at

Plug in given values:

4 = 9.7 + 4.4a

Solve for a:

a = -1.295 m/s²

We can use the following equation to convert from linear to angular acceleration:

a = αr

a/r = α

Thus:

-1.295/0.61 = -2.124 rad/sec² ⇒ 2.124 rad/sec² since counterclockwise is positive.

Now, we can find the angular displacement using the following:

θ = ωit + 1/2αt²

We must convert the initial velocity of the tire (9.7 m/s) to angular velocity:

v = ωr

v/r = ω

9.7/0.61 = 15.9 rad/sec

Plug into the equation:

θ = 15.9(4.4) + 1/2(2.124)(4.4²) = 20.56 rad

A ball is kicked horizontally from a 60 meter tall cliff at 10 m/s. How far from
o-na [289]

Hi there!

We can begin by deriving the equation for how long the ball takes to reach the bottom of the cliff.

\large\boxed{\Delta d = v_it+ \frac{1}{2}at^2}}

There is NO initial vertical velocity, so:

\large\boxed{\Delta d= \frac{1}{2}at^2}}

Rearrange to solve for time:

2\Delta d = at^2\\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\Delta d}{g}}

Plug in the given height and acceleration due to gravity (g ≈ 9.8 m/s²)

t = \sqrt{\frac{2(60)}{(9.8)}} = 3.5 s

Now, use the following for finding the HORIZONTAL distance using its horizontal velocity:

\large\boxed{d_x = vt}\\\\d_x = 10(3.5) = \karge\boxed{35 m}
