Answer:

Explanation:

Given

1 ) 140 m west in 45 s .

2 ) 90 m east in 25 s .

a )

distance travelled in first 45 s = 140 m

b ) distance travelled in next 25 s = 90 m

c ) Total distance travelled = 140 m + 90 m

= 230 m

d ) average speed in first 45 s

= distance in 45 s 45

= 140 / 45 = 3.11 m /s

e ) average speed in next 25 s

distance in 25 s / 25

= 90 / 25 = 3.6 m /s

f ) average in entire trip

= total distance / total time

= (140 + 90) / ( 25 + 45 )

= 3.28 m /s

g )

displacement in first 45 s = 140 m towards west

h )

displacement in next 25 s = 90 m towards east

i )

total displacement = 140 - 90

= 50 m towards west .

Describe a scenario when you could use energy but not do any work.

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

When you don't move, you still use energy. This energy is called potential energy, or, stored energy.

When you don't move or do work, you can use energy.

How do you find the voltage of a section of a parallel circuit?

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer: Voltage is the same across each component of the parallel circuit. The sum of the currents through each path is equal to the total current that flows from the source. You can find total resistance in a Parallel circuit with the following formula: 1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 +.

Hope this helps!

An 20-cm-long Bicycle Crank Arm. With A Pedal At One End. Is Attached To A 25-cm-diameter Sprocket, The Toothed Disk Around Whic

malfutka [58]

To solve the problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of the description of angular movement.

The angular velocity can be described as

$\omega_f = \omega_0 + \alpha t$

Where,

$\omega_f =$ Final Angular Velocity

$\omega_0 =$ Initial Angular velocity

$\alpha =$ Angular acceleration

t = time

The relation between the tangential acceleration is given as,

$a = \alpha r$

where,

r = radius.

PART A ) Using our values and replacing at the previous equation we have that

$\omega_f = (94rpm)(\frac{2\pi rad}{60s})= 9.8436rad/s$

$\omega_0 = 63rpm(\frac{2\pi rad}{60s})= 6.5973rad/s$

$t = 11s$

Replacing the previous equation with our values we have,

$\omega_f = \omega_0 + \alpha t$

$9.8436 = 6.5973 + \alpha (11)$

$\alpha = \frac{9.8436- 6.5973}{11}$

$\alpha = 0.295rad/s^2$

The tangential velocity then would be,

$a = \alpha r$

$a = (0.295)(0.2)$

$a = 0.059m/s^2$

Part B) To find the displacement as a function of angular velocity and angular acceleration regardless of time, we would use the equation

$\omega_f^2=\omega_0^2+2\alpha\theta$

Replacing with our values and re-arrange to find $\theta,$

$\theta = \frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_0^2}{2\alpha}$

$\theta = \frac{9.8436^2-6.5973^2}{2*0.295}$

$\theta = 90.461rad$

That is equal in revolution to

$\theta = 90.461rad(\frac{1rev}{2\pi rad}) = 14.397rev$

The linear displacement of the system is,

$x = \theta*(2\pi*r)$

$x = 14.397*(2\pi*\frac{0.25}{2})$

$x = 11.3m$

A locomotive approaches its next stop and accelerates at -0.12 m/s^2, coming to a complete stop in 30 seconds. This motion could

Masja [62]

Answer:

<em>Answer: positive velocity & negative acceleration</em>

Explanation:

<u>Accelerated Motion</u>

Both the velocity and acceleration are vectors because they have magnitude and direction. When the motion is restricted to one dimension, i.e. left-right or up-down, the direction is marked with the sign according to some preset reference.

The locomotive is moving at a certain speed with a (so far) unknown sign but the acceleration has a negative sign. Since the locomotive comes to a complete stop it means the velocity and the acceleration are of opposite signs.

Thus the velocity is positive.

Answer: positive velocity & negative acceleration
