Answer:

26m/s

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity of a body with respect to time. Mathematically,

Acceleration = change in velocity/time

Acceleration = final velocity (v) - initial velocity (u)/time (t)

Given a = 4m/s², v = ? u = 18m/s, t = 2seconds.

Substituting in the given formula,

4 = v-18/2

8 = v-18

v = 8+18

v = 26m/s

The new velocity of the body is therefore 26m/s

Answer:

1,230N

Explanation:

1. Name of the variables:

$f:frequency\\\\ \omega:angular\text{ }speed\\\\ a_c:centripetal\text{ }acceleration\\\\ F_c:centripetal\text{ }force\\ \\ m:mass\\ \\ d:diameter\\ \\ r:radius\\ \\ g:gravitational\text{ }acceleration$

2. Formulae:

$f=\dfrac{number\text{ }of\text{ }revolutions}{time}$

$\omega=2\pi f$

$a_c=\omega^2 r$

$F_c=m\times a_c$

3. Solution (calculations)

$f=\dfrac{1}{1.65s}=0.\overline{60}s^{-1}$

$\omega=2\pi\times0.\overline{60}\approx 3.808rad/s$

$a_c=(3.808rad/s)^2\times (3.74/2m)=27.12m/s^2$

$F_c=45.2kg\times27.12m/s^2=1,225.67N\approx 1,230N$

Plz help..During takeoff a plane accelerates at 4m/s^2 and takes 40s to reach takeoff speed.

matrenka [14]

Answer:

The velocity of the plane at take off is 160 m/s.

The distance travel by the plane in that time is 3200 meter.

Explanation:

Given:

Acceleration, a = 4 m/s²

Time, t = 40 s

u = 0 i .e initial velocity

To Find:

velocity , v = ?

distance , s =?

Solution:

we have first Kinematic equation

v = u + at

∴ v = 0 + 4×40

∴ v = 160 m/s

Now by Third Kinematic equation

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

∴ s = 0 + 0.5 × 4× 40²

∴ s = 3200 meter
