A man walking at 0.5 m/s increases his pace to 0.8 m/s in 3 seconds. What is his acceleration?

Answers

Answer 1

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (New speed) - (old speed)

Change in speed = (0.8 m/s - 0.5 m/s) = 0.3 m/s

Time for the change = 3 seconds

Acceleration = (0.3 m/s) / (3 s)

Acceleration = 0.1 m/s²

Answers

Answer:

(a) Negative

(b) Positive

Explanation:

Here is a question on sign.

(a) When the rock is going up, it is working against gravity. In this case, the acceleration due to gravity will take a negative value. This is because gravity works or acts downwards

(b) When the rock is coming down, it is actually working with gravity. So in this case, the sign will ne positive

What is the relation between the weight of a body and acceleration due to gravity? ​

Answers

Answer:

The weight W, or gravitational force, is then just the mass of an object times the gravitational acceleration. Since the gravitational constant (g) depends on the square of the distance from the center of the earth, the weight of an object decreases with altitude.

Answer:

following are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

When I stand at such a scale in an elevated that's already rising upwards, its scale would appear to also be 0 because of free fall and would often reveal that weight whenever the lift is stable.  

In this, the free fall is also known as the object, that is influenced exclusively by gravity, and an object operating only through the influence of gravity is said to be in a free-fall state.

to players?

It would be awesome if you could use a sample response

Answers

Goal posts at the end of football field are padded as a safety measure to players who might run into them,these thick paddings of the goal posts are done to prevent injuries to the players because the padding of the goal post increases the time of impact and this in-turn decreases the force on the the players body or the force it will have when a player's body hit against it and therefore decreasing the force applied to bring the player to a stop.

We can also say that it increases the time of collision between the player's body and the post.

A dragster race car can accelerate from rest to incredible speeds. In one case a dragster is able to finish the 305 m run in 3.64 s. What was the average acceleration during this run?

Answers

Answer:

45.89m/s²

Explanation:

Given

Distance S = 305m

Time t = 3.64s

To get the acceleration during this run, we will apply the equation of motion:

S = ut+1/2at²

Substitute the given parameters into the formula and calculate the value of a

305 = 0+1/2 a(3.64)²

304 = 1/2(13.2496)a

304 = 6.6248a

a = 304/6.6248

a = 45.89m/s²

Hence the average acceleration during this run is 45.89m/s²

If a sound with frequency fs is produced by a source traveling along a line with speed vs. If an observer is traveling with speed vo along the same line from the opposite direction toward the source, then the frequency of the sound heard by the observer is fo = c + vo c − vs fs where c is the speed of sound, about 332 m/s. (This is the Doppler effect.) Suppose that, at a particular moment, you are in a train traveling at 45 m/s and accelerating at 1.1 m/s2. A train is approaching you from the opposite direction on the other track at 46 m/s, accelerating at 1.6 m/s2, and sounds its whistle, which has a frequency of 459 Hz. At that instant, what is the perceived frequency that you hear? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) Hz How fast is it changing? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) Hz/s

Answers

Answer:

457.81 Hz

Explanation:

From the question, it is stated that it is a question under Doppler effect.

As a result, we use this form

fo = (c + vo) / (c - vs) × fs

fo = observed frequency by observer =?

c = speed of sound = 332 m/s

vo = velocity of observer relative to source = 45 m/s

vs = velocity of source relative to observer = - 46 m/s ( it is taking a negative sign because the velocity of the source is in opposite direction to the observer).

fs = frequency of sound wave by source = 459 Hz

By substituting the the values to the equation, we have

fo = (332 + 45) / (332 - (-46)) × 459

fo = (377/ 332 + 46) × 459

fo = (377/ 378) × 459

fo = 0.9974 × 459

fo = 457.81 Hz

A Carnot engine operates with a cold reservoir at a temperature of 455 K and a hot reservoir at a temperature of 619 K. What is the net entropy change (in J/K) as it goes through a complete cycle? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

Assuming that 4000 J of heat transfer occurs from it the change in entropy will be=2.33j/k

Explanation:

Given data

Th=619 K

Tc= 455K

We are going to assume that 4000 J of heat transfer occurs from it, since it was not specified in the question.

we know that the change in entropy is given as

ΔStotal=ΔShot+ΔScold .

ΔShot=−Q/Th=−4000J/619K=−6.46J/K

For the cold reservoir,

ΔScold=Q/Tc=4000J/455K=8.79J/K

therefore  the total is

ΔStotal=ΔShot+ΔScold

=(−6.46+8.79)J/K

=2.33j/k

A 495-kg dragster accelerates from rest to a final speed of 105 m/s in 395 m, during which it encounters an average frictional force of 1400 N. show answer No Attempt 50% Part (a) What is its average power output of the dragster, in watts, if this takes 8.2 s

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

According to energy conservation which states that the workdone is equal to change in the system

Workdone = change in kinetic energy + (frictional force * distance)

Workdone = ΔK + fd

Workdone = kf-Ki + fd

Workdone = = 1/2(m(v-u)^2) + fd

Given

Mass m = 495kg

final velocity v = 105m/s

initial velocity = 0m/s

Force f= 1400N

distance d = 395m

Substitute

Workdone = 1/2(495(105-0)^2) + 1400(395)

Workdone = 2,728,687.5+553000

Workdone = 3,281,687.5 Joules

Time = 8.2secs

Power output = Workdone/Time

Power output = 3,281,687.5/8.2

Power output = 885,766.768

Power output = 8.858 * 10^5 watts

You are studying circular motion by placing pennies on a turntable and then turning it on so that it will spin. You keep increasing the speed until one of the pennies slips off. You repeat this procedure and observe that the penny close to the outer edge always slip off first. What is the best inference?

1.The penny near the edge has a greater tangential velocity than the one in the center, so it experiences more air resistance. It’s the effect of the air “blowing” it off.

2.The centripetal force required to keep the pennies in place increases with the distance from the center. Eventually, as the turntable spins faster, the friction force between the turntable and the penny near the edge is not enough to supply the required centripetal force.

3.The centrifugal force acting on the pennies is stronger on the one near the edge than the one near the center.

Answers

Answer:

2.The centripetal force required to keep the pennies in place increases with the distance from the center. Eventually, as the turntable spins faster, the friction force between the turntable and the penny near the edge is not enough to supply the required centripetal force.

Explanation:

centripetal force = m ω² R

here m is mass , ω is angular velocity and R is distance of penny from centre

So this force depends upon R

penny on the outer edge will require  greater centripetal force to move in circular path .

The centripetal force will be provided by frictional force of table which is same for both the coin . Hence the penny on the outer edge will slip off first the moment , frictional force reach its maximum value for it . But it will be sufficient to keep in balance the penny nearer to the centre .

Question #4
4. Anthony walks to the pizza place for lunch. He walk 4 km
east, he realized he passed it and then walked 1 km west.
What distance did he cover? What was his displacement?

Answers

Answer:

Distance 5 km, Displacement 3 km east

Explanation:

The distance covered by Anthony is 5 km, while his displacement is 3 km.

Distance and displacement:

The distance is defined as the total length of space covered during motion between the starting point and end point, not necessarily a straight line. Whereas displacement is defined as the minimum distance between two points in space, that is a straight line.

Suppose, if you start from one point and walk for 100 meters then come back at the same point that you started your walk, you would have traveled 2 times 100 meters that is 200 meters. But your displacement will be zero because your starting point and the end point are the same.

The given question clarifies the difference between distance and displacement:

Since Anthony walks 4 km east and then walks 1 km west, the distance covered by him is:

distance = 4 + 1 = 5 km

but as he walks west, he comes closer to the starting point, and his displacement is the distance between the starting point and the end point.

displacement = 4 - 1 = 3 km

Referto the figure below for more information.

Activity Problem 8.3 This problem asks you to compare the finite current element approximation to the infinite straight wire approximation for the isolated segment of wire carrying current of 2A to the right. The wire is 8cm long. Note, the finite current approximation will be a fairly poor approximation to the actual field which would be found by integration; the infinite wire field is a better approximation in this case. (a)Compute the magnetic field at point C a distance 2cm for the center of the wire using the infinite straight wire approximation. (b)Compute the magnetic field at point C using the finite current element approximation. (c)Compute the magnetic field at point E a distance 2cm from the end using the finite current element approximation.

               (b) B = 1.94 x 10⁻⁵T

               (c) B = 1.8 x 10⁻⁴T

Explanation: A magnetic field due to a current passing through a straight wire is calculated using the Biot-Savart Law:

[tex]dB=\frac{\mu_{0}}{4.\pi} \frac{IdLXR}{r^{3}}[/tex]

where

dL is current length element

[tex]\mu_{0}[/tex] is permeability of free space ([tex]4.\pi.10^{-7}[/tex]T.m/A)

(a) For a infinite straight wire:

[tex]B=\frac{\mu_{0}I}{2.\pi.R}[/tex]

[tex]B=\frac{4.\pi.10^{-7}.2}{2.\pi.2.10^{-2}}[/tex]

B = 2x10⁻⁵T

For an infinite, long and straight wire, magnetic field is 2x10⁻⁵T.

(b) For a finite wire:

[tex]B=\frac{\mu_{0}I}{2.\pi.R}\frac{L}{\sqrt{L^{2}+R^{2}} }[/tex]

[tex]B=\frac{4.\pi.10^{-7}.2}{2.\pi.2.10^{-2}} \frac{8.10^{-2}}{\sqrt{(8.10^{-2})^{2}+(2.10^{-2})^{2}} }[/tex]

B = 1.94x10⁻⁵T

The magnetic field for a finite wire in the same conditionsas infinite wire is 1.94x10⁻⁵T.

(c) For a finite wire at a point distant from the end of the wire:

[tex]B=\frac{\mu_{0}I}{4.\pi.L\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

[tex]B=\frac{4.\pi.10^{-7}.2}{4.\pi.8.10^{-2}\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

B = 0.18x10⁻⁵T

At a point at the end, magnetic field is 1.8x10⁻⁴T.
