The instantaneous speed of a particle moving along one straight line is v(t) = ate−6t, where the speed v is measured in meters per second, the time t is measured in seconds, and the magnitude of the constant a is measured in meters per second squared. What is its maximum speed, expressed as a multiple of a? (Do not include units in your answer.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

v_max = (1/6)e^-1 a

Explanation:

You have the following equation for the instantaneous speed of a particle:

[tex]v(t)=ate^{-6t}[/tex]   (1)

To find the expression for the maximum speed in terms of the acceleration "a", you first derivative v(t) respect to time t:

[tex]\frac{dv(t)}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}[ate^{-6t}]=a[(1)e^{-6t}+t(e^{-6t}(-6))][/tex]  (2)

where you have use the derivative of a product.

Next, you equal the expression (2) to zero in order to calculate t:

[tex]a[(1)e^{-6t}-6te^{-6t}]=0\\\\1-6t=0\\\\t=\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

For t = 1/6 you obtain the maximum speed.

Then, you replace that value of t in the expression (1):

[tex]v_{max}=a(\frac{1}{6})e^{-6(\frac{1}{6})}=\frac{e^{-1}}{6}a[/tex]

hence, the maximum speed is v_max = ((1/6)e^-1)a

A firm wants to determine the amount of frictional torque in their current line of grindstones, so they can redesign them to be more energy efficient. To do this, they ask you to test the best-selling model, which is basically a diskshaped grindstone of mass 2.0 kg and radius 9.90 cm which operates at 720 rev/min. When the power is shut off, you time the grindstone and find it takes 41.9 s for it to stop rotating.

(a) What is the angular acceleration of the grindstone in rad/s^2? (b) What is the frictional torque exerted on the grindstone in N·m?

Answers

Answer:

a)- 1.799 rad/sec²

b)- 17.6 x 10ˉ³Nm

Explanation:

ω₀ = 720 rev/min x (1 min/60 sec) x (2π rad / 1 rev) =  24π rad/s

a) Assuming a constant angular acceleration, the formula will be

α = (ωf -ω₀) / t

As final state of the grindstone is at rest, so ωf =0

⇒ α = (0-24π) / 41.9 = - 1.799 rad/sec²

b)Moment of inertia I for a disk about its central axis

I = ½mr²  

where m=2kg and radius 'r'= 0.099m

I = ½(2)(0.099²)

I = 9.8 x 10ˉ³ kgm²

Next is to determine the frictional torque exerted on the grindstone, that caused it to stop, applying the rotational equivalent of the Newton's 2nd law:

τ = I α =>(9.8 x 10ˉ³)(- 1.799)

τ = - 17.6 x 10ˉ³Nm

(The negative sign indicates that the frictional torque opposes to the rotation of  the grindstone).

A. A PH202 student lives next to a construction site and sees a crane with a wrecking ball demolish the building next door. The wrecking ball swings along the wall between her house and the neighbor’s house. In an effort to determine the length of the cable on the wrecking ball the student builds a pendulum using a random rock and a string. Her pendulum turns out to be 0.500m long. While she plays with her pendulum she realizes that the wrecking ball swings back and forth in the same amount of time that it takes the rock to complete 5 full oscillations. What is the length of the cable on the wrecking ball?

Answers

Answer:

The length of cable is 12.5 m

Explanation:

Since, the wrecking ball completes 1 oscillation, in the same time, as it takes for the rock to complete 5 oscillations.

Therefore,

Time Period of Wrecking Ball = 5 (Time Period of Rock)

Since,

Time Period of  Pendulum = 2π√(L/g)

Therefore,

2π√(L₁/g) = 5[2π√(L₂/g)]

√L₁ = 5√L₂

Squaring on both sides:

L₁ = 25 L₂

where,

L₁ = Length of Cable = ?

L₂ = Length of string = 0.5 m

Therefore,

L₁ = 25 (0.5 m)

L₁ = 12.5 m

1. A car goes from 4.47 m/s to 17.9 m/s in 3 seconds.
a. Did this car speed up or slow down?
b. Should your answer be positive or negative? Explain your reasoning.
c. Calculate the acceleration of the car.

Answers

Answer:

a:it speed up

b:it should be positive since final

velocity is larger than initial velocity

c:acceleration is approximately 4.5

m/s^2

Explanation:

initial velocity=u=4.47m/s

Final velocity=v=17.9m/s

Time=t=3 seconds

a:the car speed up since the velocity

increased

b:change in velocity is positive

because final velocity is larger than

initial velocity

17.9-4.47=13.43 m/s

c: acceleration=(v-u)/t

acceleration=(17.9-4.47)/3

acceleration=13.43/3

acceleration=4.5 m/s^2

The change in velocity is a positive value, this shows that the car speeds up.The answer should be positive since the final velocity is greater than the initial velocity. The acceleration of the car is 4.48m/s²

If a car goes from a velocity u to a velocity v, the change in velocity is expressed as;

[tex]\triangle v =v-u[/tex]

Given

final velocity v = 17.9m/s

initial velocity u = 4.47m/s

[tex]\triangle v = 17.9-4.47\\\triangle v =13.43m/s[/tex]

a) Since the change in velocity is a positive value, this shows that the car speeds up.

b) The answer should be positive since the final velocity is greater than the initial velocity.

c) Acceleration is the change in velocity with respect to time

[tex]a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\a=\frac{17.9-4.47}{3} \\a=\frac{13.43}{3}\\a= 4.48m/s^2[/tex]

Hence the acceleration of the car is 4.48m/s²

What is the gravitational force related to the distance between two objects?

Answers

Answer:

Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases.

A bike travels 15.0 km in 45.0 min. Its average speed in km/h is .

Answers

Answer: 20 km/h

Explanation: The formula is in the question itself which is kilometer divided by hour. We already have 15 km but it shows us 45 minutes not hour. We need to convert 45 minutes into hours by taking 45 divided by 60 minutes which equals an hour and get 0.75 hours. Now plug into the formula which would be 15 km divided by 0.75 hours and get 20 km/h.

The average speed of a bus traveling a distance of 15.0 km in 45.0 min is 20 km/hour.

What is speed?

The speed of an object, also known as v in kinematics, is the size of the change in that object's position over time or the size of the change in that object's position per unit of time, making it a scalar quantity.

The distance travelled by an object in a time interval is divided by the length of the interval to determine its average speed.

Distance travelled by the bike = 15.0 km

Time taken by the object = 45.0 minute = (45.0 ÷ 60) hour = 0.75 hour

Hence, the average speed of the object = distance travelled / time taken

= 15.0 km/0.75 hour

= 20 km/hour,

Therefore, the average speed of a bus traveling a distance of15.0 km in 45.0 min is 20 km/hour.

Answers

Answer:

a)V=7 m/s

b)a=3t²-3x² t³ +3 x ⁵

Explanation:

Given that

[tex]\dfrac{dx}{dt}=t^3-x^3[/tex]

a)

We know that velocity V is given as follows

[tex]V=\dfrac{dx}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]V=t^3-x^3[/tex]

At t= 2 s and x= 1 m

[tex]V=2^3-1^3=7 m/s[/tex]

V=7 m/s

b)

Acceleration a is given as follows

[tex]a=\dfrac{dV}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]a=3t^2-3x^2\dfrac{dx}{dt}[/tex]

Now by putting the values

[tex]a=3t^2-3x^2\times (t^3-x^3)[/tex]

Use 9.461 × 1012 km/light-year and 8766 hours per year (365.25 days).

Answers

Answer:

t = 2.94 x 10⁶ years

Explanation:

The equation used in the case of constant speed is:

s = vt

t = s/v

where,

s = distance = 12 light years

s = (12 light years)(9.461 x 10¹² km/light year) =  113.532 x 10¹² km

v = speed = 440 km/hr

t = time passed = ?

Therefore,

t = (113.532 x 10¹² km)/(440 km/hr)

t = 2.58 x 10¹¹ hr

Now, converting it to years:

t = (2.58 x 10¹¹ hr)(1 year/8766 hr)

t = 2.94 x 10⁶ years

Archerfish are tropical fish that hunt by shooting drops of water from their mouths at insects above the water’s surface to knock them into the water, where the fish can eat them. A 65-g fish at rest just at the surface of the water can expel a 0.30-g drop of water in a short burst of 5.0 ms. High-speed measurements show that the water has a speed of 2.5 m/s just after the archerfish expels it. What is the speed of the archerfish immediately after it expels the drop of water?
(a) 0.0025 m/s
(b) 0.012 m/s
(c) 0.75 m/s
(d) 2.5 m/s.

Answers

Answer:

(b) 0.012 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

mass (m₁) of the drop of water = 0.30 g = 3.0 × 10⁻⁴ kg

mass (M₂) of the fish = 65 g =  65 × 10⁻³ kg

speed (v₁) of the water = 2.5 m/s

speed (v₂) of the archerfish = ??

By conservation of momentum

m₁v₁ - M₂v₂ = 0

m₁v₁  = M₂v₂

v₂ = m₁v₁ / M₂

v₂ =  ( 3.0 × 10⁻⁴ × 2.5 ) /  65 × 10⁻³

v₂ = 0.0115 m/s

v₂ ≅ 0.012 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the archerfish immediately after it expels the drop of water 0.012 m/s.
