Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2ad
a= 34 m/s^2
Vi = 0 m/s
d = 3400m
Vf = 480.83 m/s
a=v/t
t=v/a
t=480.83/34
t=14.142 s
Answer:
a. a=33.34ms⁻², V=164.4m/s
Explanation:
Since the dragster started with zero velocity, de determine the acceleration using of the equations of motion.
Below are the data given
Distance, s=404.5m,
time taken,t=4.922secs
Using the equation
S=ut+1/2at²
where u is the initial velocity and u=0
Making the acceleration the subject of the formula, we arrive at
a=2s/t²
a=(2*404.5)/4.922²
a=33.34ms⁻².
To determine the velocity, we use
V=u+at
V=0+33.34ms⁻² *4.922sec
V=164.4m/s
Considering the unknown resistence as R and using the Ohm's First Law, we have:
The equivalent resistence is given by the resistor series with the lamp resistence.
