A 2kg object initially going 4m/s to the right is later going 8m/s. whats the change in velocity?
Nezavi [6.7K]

The change in velocity is +4 m/s to the right (or -4 m/s to the left).

The object's mass is irrelevant.

The dragster has a mass of 1.3 Mg and a center of mass at G. A parachute is attached at C provides a horizontal braking force of
adell [148]

Answer:

The deceleration of the dragster upon releasing the parachute such that the wheels at B are on the verge of leaving the ground is  16.33 m/s²

Explanation:

The additional information to the question is embedded in the diagram attached below:

The height between the dragster and ground is considered to be 0.35 m since is not given ; thus in addition win 0.75 m between the dragster and the parachute; we have: (0.75 + 0.35) m = 1.1 m

Balancing the equilibrium about point A;

F(1.1) - mg (1.25) = ma_a (0.35)

1.8v^2(1.1) - 1200(9.8)(1.25) = 1200a(0.35)

1.8v^2(1.1) - 14700 = 420 a   ------- equation (1)

F_x = ma_x \\ \\ = 1.8v^2 = 1200 \ a             --------- equation (2)

Replacing equation 2 into equation 1 ; we have :

{1.1 * 1200 \ a} - 14700 = 420 a

1320 a - 14700 = 420 a

1320 a -  420 a =14700

900 a = 14700

a = 14700/900

a = 16.33 m/s²

The deceleration of the dragster upon releasing the parachute such that the wheels at B are on the verge of leaving the ground is  16.33 m/s²

2) If the initial velocity of an object is equal to a final velocity, what is the acceleration of the object?
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

The acceleration is 0.

Explanation:

The formula for acceleration is:

a = (v-u)/t

If v and u are equal, thus it would be 0 when subtracted, and anything divided by 0 is 0.
