1. Black Panther ran 567.5 ks to the east in 2.3 hours then tumed around and ran 2218 km to

the west in 1.2 hours. What was his average velocity during the trip in km/h?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:Average Velocity of the trip=98.77km/h

Explanation:

Given that:

Black Panther started his journey with

Distance ran towards east  = 567.5km

Time ran towards east  = 2.3 hours

and then  turned back,

Distance ran towards west,  = 2218 km

Time taken towards west,  = 1.2 hours

Let us treat the westward movement as negative movement of the east

So total displacement =567.5 km east + (-2218km east )= 1,650.5km

But it seems the value of the distance ran west is wrong , because i do not think he can run  2218km under 1.2hours considering he ran 567.5m due east at 2.3hours .

So Let we use 221.8 km as distance ran due west.

So that Total Displacement becomes = 567.5 km east + (-221.8km east )= 345.7km

Total time = 2.3 + 1.2 = 3.5hrs.

Average velocity = Total displacement / total time  

.345.7km / 3.5hr =  98.77km/h

A car company wants to ensure its newest model can stop in less than 450 ft when traveling at 60 mph. If we assume constant deceleration, find the value of acceleration (in ft/sec2) that accomplishes this.

Answers

Answer:

The value of acceleration that accomplishes this is 8.61 ft/s² .

Explanation:

Given;

maximum distance to be traveled by the car when the brake is applied, d = 450 ft

initial velocity of the car, u = 60 mph = (1.467 x 60) = 88.02 ft/s

final velocity of the car when it stops, v = 0

Apply the following kinematic equation to solve for the deceleration of the car.

v² = u² + 2as

0 = 88.02² + (2 x 450)a

-900a = 7747.5204

a = -7747.5204 / 900

a = -8.61 ft/s²

|a| = 8.61 ft/s²

Therefore, the value of acceleration that accomplishes this is 8.61 ft/s² .

Heidi (39 kg) is walking her tiny chihuahua, Chaxi (5.60 kg), on the sidewalk. To encourage Chaxi along, Heidi pulls forward with a force of 9.55 N. Identify the correct reaction force in response to Heidi’s action force.

a. The friction is less than 660 N since the beam can be moved at a constant velocity.
b. There is no friction acting on the beam since it is accelerating.
c. The friction is equal to 660 N since the beam is not accelerating.
d. The friction is greater than 660 N since the beam is not in equilibrium.

Answers

Answer:

The correct reaction force in response to Heidi's action force is:

c. The friction is equal to 660 N since the beam is not accelerating.

Explanation:

Heidi's action force does not affect the beam.  Since friction resists the sliding or rolling of one solid object over another, there is no friction acting on the beam, in this respect.  The reaction force is what makes the dog to move because it acts on it.  According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, forces always come in action-reaction pairs.  This Third Law states that for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force.  This means that the dog exerts some force on Heidi, as he pulls it "forward with a force of 9.55 N."

A ball is kicked off the ground reaching a maximum height of 60m and lands 80m away. Calculate the initial speed and the angle above the horizontal of the ball when it was kicked​

Answers

Answer:

36.87°

Explanation:

Given

Maximum height = 60m

Horizontal distance (range) = 80,m

Required

Initial speed U

Angle of launch

To get the speed, we will use the range formula;

R = U √2H/g

80 = U√2(60)/9.8

80 = U√12.25

80 = 3.5U

U = 80/3.5

U = 22.86m/s

Get the angle of launch

Using the formula

Theta = tan^-1(y/x)

y is the vertical distance

x is the horizontal distance

Theta = tan^-1(60/80)

Theta = tan^-1(0.75)

Theta = 36.87°

Hence the angle of launch is 36.87°

It increases, f = ma both mass and acceleration are directly proportional to force so if mass is constant acceleration must increase to increase the force.

Find an expression for the kinetic energy of the car at the top of the loop.Express the kinetic energy in terms of m, g, h, and R.

Answers

Answer:

K.E₂ = mg(h - 2R)

Explanation:

The diagram of the car at the top of the loop is given below. Considering the initial position of the car and the final position as the top of the loop. We apply law of conservation of energy:

K.E₁ + P.E₁ = K.E₂ + P.E₂

where,

K.E₁ = Initial Kinetic Energy = (1/2)mv² = (1/2)m(0 m/s)² = 0 (car initially at rest)

P.E₁ = Initial Potential Energy = mgh

K.E₂ = Final Kinetic Energy at the top of the loop = ?

P.E₂ = Final Potential Energy = mg(2R) (since, the height at top of loop is 2R)

Therefore,

0 + mgh = K.E₂ + mg(2R)

K.E₂ = mg(h - 2R)

The kinetic energy of the car is expressed as K.E = mg(h - 2R). The energy of the object by the integrity of its movement is understood as kinetic energy.

What is kinetic energy?

The energy of the body by the virtue of its motion is known as the kinetic energy of the body. It is defined as the product of half of mass and square of velocity.

The following data is observed from the figure;

K.E₁ = Initial Kinetic Energy = (1/2)mv² = (1/2)m(0 m/s)² = 0

P.E₁ = Initial Potential Energy = mgh

K.E₂ = Final Kinetic Energy at the top of the loop =?

P.E₂ = Final Potential Energy = mg(2R) (since, the height at top of loop is 2R)

According to the law of conservation of energy, total energy is defined as the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy.

Total energy = kinetic energy+potential energy

On applying the law  of conservation of energy for top and bottom of the loop;

K.E₁ + P.E₁ = K.E₂ + P.E₂

0 + mgh = K.E₂ + mg(2R)

K.E₂ = mg(h - 2R)

Hence the kinetic energy of the car is expressed as K.E = mg(h - 2R).

Answers

Answer:half-life (T1/2) of this isotope =

Explanation:

The number of nuclei of any radioactive substance at a given time is expressed by

Nt = N0e⁻kt

Nt=decay of material  at a time t, =3110 decays per minute

N=decays at t=0, 8255 decays per minute

k=constant

Nt=N0e−kt

3110= 8255 e⁻k(4.50)

3110/ 8255=e−k(4.50)

0.3767 =  e−k(4.50)

In 0.3767  =   -k (4.50)

0.976=-4.5k

k=0.976/4.5

=0.2159

Also we know that t 1/2= time that it takes half the original material to decay.it is  related to the rate constant by

T₁/₂=ln  2 / k

Therefore half-life (T1/2) of this isotope

T₁/₂=ln  2/0.2159

T₁/₂=3.12 days

A rock dropped from a 5 m height accelerates at 10 m/s and strikes the ground 1 s later. If the rock is dropped

from a height of 2,5 m, its acceleration of fall is

Answers

Answer:

10 m/s²

Explanation:

The above question simply indicates motion under gravity.

The acceleration due to gravity (i.e acceleration of free fall) has a constant value of 10 m/s².

Whether the rock is dropped from a height of 5 m or 2.5 m, it will accelerate at 10 m/s² before striking the ground. The only thing that will be different is the time taken for the rock to strike the ground when released from both 5 m and 2.5 m.

Thus, the rock will have a constant acceleration of 10 m/s² irrespective of the height to which it was released.

Since acceleration due to gravity is a constant,  the acceleration of the rock dropped from the 5 m height is the same as that dropped from the 2.5 m height and is equal to 10 m/s²

What is the acceleration due to gravity?

Acceleration due to gravity is the acceleration a body falling freely from a height above the earth surface which a body experiences due to the gravitational force of attraction of the earth on the body.

Acceleration due to gravity has a constant value which is equal to 10 m/s².

Therefore, the acceleration of the rock dropped from the 5 m height is the same as that dropped from the 2.5 m height and is equal to 10 m/s².

We are Given:

Frequency of the wave = 6 * 10⁵ Hz

Wavelength of the wave:

We know the relation:

c = λν  

[where λ (Lambda) is the wavelength ,ν (nu) is the frequency and c is the speed of light ]

3 * 10⁸  m/s= (6 * 10⁵ )* λ                          [replacing known values]

λ = [tex]\frac{3 * 10^{8}}{6 * 10^{5}}[/tex]                                                     [dividing both sides by 6 * 10⁵]

λ = 1/2 * 10³  

λ = 1/2 * 10 * 10²                                        [10³ can be rewritten as 10 * 10²]

λ = 5 * 10² m

b. 22.0 m
c. 5.68 m

Answer:

e. 55.0 m

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the aluminum wire, d = 0.865 mm

radius of the wire, r = d/2 = 0.4325 mm = 0.4325 x 10⁻³ m

resistivity of the wire, ρ = 2.65 x 10⁻⁸ Ω-m

resistance of the wire, R = 2.48 Ω

The resistance of a wire is given by;

[tex]R = \frac{\rho \ L}{A} \\\\[/tex]

where;

L is length of the wire

A is area of the wire = πr² = π(0.4325 x 10⁻³ )² = 5.877 x 10⁻⁷ m²

Substitute the givens and solve for L,

[tex]L = \frac{RA}{\rho} \\\\L = \frac{(2.48)(5.877*10^{-7})}{2.65*10^{-8}}\\\\L = 55.0 \ m[/tex]

Therefore, the length of the wire is 55.0 m

A simple pendulum has a period T on Earth. If it were used on Planet X and found to have a period of only 71% of T, what would be the free fall acceleration due to gravity on this planet X?

Answers

Answer:

gₓ = 1.4 g = 13.8 m/s²

Explanation:

The time period of simple pendulum on earth is given as:

T = 2π√(L/g)

where,

L = Length of pendulum

g = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth = 9.8 m/s²

T = Time Period on Earth

but, on the other planets, it becomes:

Tₓ = 2π√(L/gₓ)

where,

Tₓ = Time Period on Surface of Other Planet

gₓ = acceleration due to gravity on other planet  = ?

It is given that:

Tₓ = 71% of T

Tₓ = 0.71 T

using values:

2π√(L/gₓ) = (0.71) 2π√(L/g)

√(1/gₓ) = (0.71)√(1/g)

squaring both sides:

1/gₓ = 0.71/g

gₓ = g/0.71

gₓ = 1.4 g = 13.8 m/s²

A 715 kg car stopped at an intersection is rear-ended by a 1490 kg truck moving with a speed of 12.5 m/s. If the car was in neutral and its brakes were off, so that the collision is approximately elastic, find the final speed of both vehicles after the collision.

Answers

Answer:

The final velocity of the car is 16.893 m/s

The final velocity of the truck is 4.393 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the car, m₁ = 715 kg

mass of the truck, m₂ = 1490 kg

initial velocity of the car, u₁ = 0

initial velocity of the truck, u₂ = 12.5 m/s

let the final velocity of the car, = v₁

let the final velocity of the truck, = v₂

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for elastic collision;

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(715 x 0) + (1490 x 12.5) = 715v₁ + 1490v₂

18625 = 715v₁ + 1490v₂ -----equation (1)

Apply one-directional velocity formula;

u₁ + v₁ = u₂ + v₂

0 + v₁ = 12.5 + v₂

v₁ = 12.5 + v₂

Substitute v₁ into equation (1)

18625 = 715(12.5 + v₂) + 1490v₂

18625 =8937.5 + 715v₂ + 1490v₂

18625 - 8937.5 = 715v₂ + 1490v₂

9687.5 = 2205v₂

v₂ = 9687.5 / 2205

v₂ = 4.393 m/s

solve for v₁

v₁ = 12.5 + v₂

v₁ =  12.5 + 4.393

v₁ = 16.893 m/s

Explanation:

A plane is heading due west and climbing at the rate of 80 km/hr. If its airspeed is 540 km/hr and there is a wind blowing 80 km/hr to the northwest, what is the ground speed of the plane?

We solve the above question using vectors

In vector form Air speed is -540i + 0j Wind speed is (-80/√2)i + (80/√2)j

Vector notation wind speed is given as: -56.5685 i + 56.5685j

The vector for the ground speed of the plane =

-540i + 0j -56.5685i + 56.5685j

= -596.56854249i + 56.5685j

The the ground speed of the plane √[(596.56854249)² + (56.5685)²]

= √359094.021081 km/hr

= 599.24454197 km/hr

Approximately
