The characteristics of the kinematics allow to find the results for the questions about the movement of the body are:

a)  we have four sections;

  • 0 to 8 s The body is accelerating.
  • 8 to 10 s The body goes at a constant speed, the acceleration is zero.
  • 10 to 14 Body accelerating.
  • 14 to 18 Body slowing down.

b)  The acceleration is the first 8 s is:  a = 0.25 m / s²

c) The maximum acceleration is:    a = 1 m / s²

d) The displacement   is:  i) d₁ =  8m,     ii)  d_{total}= 16 m

e) maximum speed  is:      v = 6 m / s

Kinematics studies the movement of bodies by finding relationships between the position, speed and acceleration of bodies.

        v = v₀ + a t

        y = v₀ t + ½ a t²

where v and v₀ is the current and initial velocity, respectively, a is the acceleration and t is time.

In many circumstances graphs are made for their analysis, in a graph of speed versus time when we have a horizontal line the speed is constant, the acceleration is zero and in the case of a slope there is an acceleration, we have two cases:

  • Positive slope the body is accelerating and the speed is increasing.
  • Negative slope the body is stopping, the speed decreases.

Let's answer the different questions about the system.

a) in the attached we have a graph of the velocity versus time, each section corresponds to a change in the slope of the graph, we have four sections;

  • 0 to 8 s The body is accelerating.
  • 8 to 10 s The body goes at a constant speed, the acceleration is zero.
  • 10 to 14 Body accelerating.
  • 14 to 18 Body slowing down.

b) The acceleration is the first 8 s

          v = v₀ + a t

          a = \frac{v-v_o}{\Delta t}  

          a = \frac{2-0}{8-0}  

          a = 0.25 m / s²

c) The maximum acceleration is when the slope is maximum.

          a = \frac{6-2}{ 14-10}  

          a = 1 m / s²

Therefore the acceleration is maximum in the section between 10 and 14 s

d) The total displacement is the sum of the displacements of each section.

         d_{total } = d_1 +d_2 + d_3 +d_4  

We look for every displacement.

       d₁ = v₀ + ½ a₁ Δt²

       d₁ = 0 + ½ 0.25 8²

       d₁ = 8 m

In the second section the velocity is constant

         d₂ = v₂ Δt₂

         d₂ = 2 (10-8)

         d₂ = 4 m

The third section.

    d₃ = v₀ + ½ a t²

    d₃ = 2 + ½ 1 (14-10) ²

    d₃ = 10 m

The distance of the fourth section.

       

we look for acceleration

          a₄ = \frac{v-v_o}{\Delta t}  

          a₄ = \frac{0-6}{18-14}  

          a₄ = -1.5 m / s²

     

          d₄ = 6 + ½ (-1.5) (1814) ²

          d₄ = -6 m

The total displacement is;

          d_{total} = 8 + 4 + 10 -6

          d_{total} = 16 m

e) The maximum speed is the highest point in the graph of speed versus time that in the attachment we can see corresponds to

          v = 6 m / s

In conclusion using the characteristics of kinematics we can find the results for the questions about the motion of bodies are:

  a)  we have four sections;

  • 0 to 8 s The body is accelerating.
  • 8 to 10 s The body goes at a constant speed, the acceleration is zero.
  • 10 to 14 Body accelerating.
  • 14 to 18 Body slowing down.

b)  The acceleration is the first 8 s is:  a = 0.25 m / s²

c) The maximum acceleration is:    a = 1 m / s²

d) The displacement   is:  i) d₁ =  8m,     ii)  d_{total}= 16 m

e) maximum speed  is:      v = 6 m / s

Answer:

Explanation:

A physical quantity which can be completely described by the magnitude and direction both are called vector quantities. For example, displacement, velocity, etc.

A physical quantity which can be completely explained by the magnitude only is called scalar quantity. For example, mass, time, etc.

The temperature at a point (x, y) on a flat metal plate is given by T(x, y) = 54/(7 + x2 + y2), where T is measured in °C and x,
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

dt/dx = -0.373702

dt/dy =  -1.121107

Explanation:

Given data

T(x, y) = 54/(7 + x² + y²)

to find out

rate of change of temperature with respect to distance

solution

we know function

T(x, y) = 54 /( 7 + x² + y²)

so derivative it x and y direction i.e

dt/dx = -54× 2x / (7 +x² + y²)²    .........................1

dt/dy = -54× 2y / (7 + x² + y²)²      .........................2

now put the value point (1,3) as x = 1 and y = 3 in equation 1 and 2

dt/dx = -54× 2(1) / (7 +(1)² + (3)²)²  

dt/dx = -0.373702

and

dt/dy =  -54× 2(3) / (7 + (1)² + (3)²)²

dt/dy =  -1.121107

A 25kg chair initially at rest on a horizontal floor requires 165 N force to set it in motion. Once the chair is in motion, a 12
bazaltina [42]

The coefficient of static friction between the chair and the floor is 0.67

Explanation:

Given:

Weight of the chair = 25kg

Force = 165 N (F_applied)

Force = 127 N (F_max)

To find: Coefficient of static friction  

The “coefficient of static friction” between a chair and the floor is defined as the ration of maximum force to the normal force acting on the chair  

μ_s=F_{max}/F_{n}  

The F_n is equal to the weight multiplied by its gravity

∴F_{n}=mg  

Thus the coefficient of static friction changes as

μ_s=F_{max}/mg

μ_{s} = =165N/((25kg)\times(9.80 m/s^2 ) )

= 0.67

A weightlifter liftsa 1,250-N barbell 2 m in 3 s. how much power was used to lift the barbell?
STatiana [176]
Power = Force * Distance/ time
P = 1,250 * 2/3
P = 2,500/3
P = 833.33 Watts

So, your final answer is 833.33 Watts
