You drive 6.0 km at 50 km/h and then another 6.0 km at 90 km/h. Your average speed over the 12 km drive will be ____
(A) a greater than 70 km/h.
(B) less than 70 km/h.
(C) exactly 38 km/h.
(D) It cannot be determined from the information given because we must also know directions traveled.
(E) equal to 70 km/h.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The average speed is less than 70 km/h.

(B) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

distance = 6.0 km

Speed = 50 km/h

Speed = 90 km/h

We need to calculate the time in 6.0 km distance

Using formula of time

[tex]t = \dfrac{d}{v}[/tex]

Put the value in to the formula

[tex]t=\dfrac{6.0}{50}[/tex]

[tex]t=0.12\ hr[/tex]

We need to calculate the time in another distance

Using formula of time

[tex]t = \dfrac{d}{v}[/tex]

Put the value in to the formula

[tex]t=\dfrac{6.0}{90}[/tex]

[tex]t=0.067\ hr[/tex]

We need to calculate the average speed

Using formula of average speed

[tex]v=\dfrac{D}{T}[/tex]

Where, D = total distance

T = total time

Put the value into the formula

[tex]v=\dfrac{12}{0.12+0.067}[/tex]

[tex]v=64.17\ km/hr[/tex]

Hence, The average speed is less than 70 km/h.

Answer 2

The average speed over the 12 km drive is less than 70 km/h since the total time for the trip is 0.187 hours, leading to an average speed of 64.2 km/h.

To calculate the average speed for the entire trip, you must divide the total distance by the total time taken. In the given scenario, you drive 6.0 km at 50 km/h and then another 6.0 km at 90 km/h. First, calculate the time taken for each portion of the trip.

For the first 6.0 km at 50 km/h: time = distance/speed = 6.0 km / 50 km/h = 0.12 hours.For the second 6.0 km at 90 km/h: time = distance/speed = 6.0 km / 90 km/h = 0.067 hours.

Now, add the times together and divide the total distance by the total time to find the average speed.

Total time = 0.12 hours + 0.067 hours = 0.187 hours.Average speed = Total distance / Total time = 12 km / 0.187 hours = 64.2 km/h.

Therefore, the average speed over the 12 km drive is less than 70 km/h, which corresponds to option (B).

A basketball player makes a bounce pass by throwing the ball with a speed of 5.3 m/s and at an angle 12° below the horizontal. It leaves her hands 1.0 m above the floor. Calculate how far omher feet the ball hits the ground.

Answers

Answer:

ball hit the ground from her feet is 1.83 m far away

Explanation:

given data

speed = 5.3 m/s

angle = 12°

height = 1 m

to find out

how far from her feet ball hit ground

solution

we consider here x is horizontal component and y is vertical component

so in vertical

velocity will be = v sin12

vertical speed u = 5.3 sin 12 = 1.1 m/s downward

and

in horizontal , velocity we know v = 5.3 m/s

so from motion of equation

s = ut + 0.5×a×t²

s is distance t is time a is 9.8

put all value

1 = 1.1 ( t) + 0.5×9.8×t²

solve it we get t

t = 0.353 s

and

horizontal distance is = vcos12 × t

so horizontal distance = 5.3×cos12 × ( 0.353)

horizontal distance = 1.83 m

so ball hit the ground from her feet is 1.83 m far away

A car is decelerating at the rate of 2 km/s square. If its initial speed is 66 km/s, how long will it take the car to come to a complete stop?

Answers

Answer:

It will take 33 seconds to stop the car.

Explanation:

Using the first equation of kinematics we have

[tex]v=u+at[/tex]

where

'v' is final speed of object

'u' is initial speed of object

'a' is acceleration of object

't' is time of acceleration of object

Now since it is given that [tex]a=-2km/s^{2}[/tex] since acceleration is negative  and [tex]u=66km/s[/tex]

We know that the object will stop when it's velocity reduces to zero hence in the equation above setting v = 0 we get

[tex]0=66-2\times t\\\\\therefore t=\frac{66}{2}=33seconds[/tex]

Final answer:

Using the kinematic equation for velocity and acceleration, it is calculated that the car, decelerating at a rate of 2 km/s² from an initial speed of 66 km/s, will take 33 seconds to come to a complete stop.

Explanation:

To find out how long it will take the car to come to a complete stop, we need to use the kinematic equation that relates initial velocity, acceleration, and time without displacement:

Final velocity (v) = Initial velocity (u) + (Acceleration (a) × Time (t))

Here, the final velocity (v) is 0 km/s, since the car is coming to a stop, the initial velocity (u) is 66 km/s, and the acceleration (a) is -2 km/s² (negative because it is deceleration).

The equation becomes:

0 = 66 + (-2 × t)
We can solve for t as follows:

0 = 66 - 2t

2t = 66

t = 33 seconds

So it will take the car 33 seconds to come to a complete stop.

A driver of a car going 60 km/h suddenly sees the lights of a barrier 40 m ahead. It takes the driver 0.80 seconds before he applies the brakes, and the average acceleration during braking is -9.5 m/s. (A) Does the car hit the barrier? Explain. (B) What is the maximum speed at which the car could be moving and not hit the barrier 40 meters ahead?

Answers

Answer:

a) The car doesn't hit the barrier because after he sees the lights of a barrier he only travels for 27.95m, enough to miss the barrier. b) The maximum speed at which the car could be moving and not hit the barrier 40 meters ahead is 21m/s or 75.6km/hr.

Explanation:

a)

In order to solve this problem we must first do a drawing of the situation for us to visualize it better. (See picture attached).

As you may see on the drawing, the car still travels some distance when the driver notices the lights of the barrier. This distance is calculated for a constant velocity V:

x=Vt

the car has a velcity of 60km/h which is equivalent to:

[tex]\frac {60km}{hr} * \frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1hr}{3600s}=16.667m/s[/tex]

so on the first 0.80s the car travels a distance of:

x=(16.667m/s)(0.8s)=13.333m

Next, the car breaks, so we can say it moves with a constant acceleration of -9.5m/s, so the distance is found by using the following formula:

[tex]x=\frac {V_{f}^{2}-V_{0}^{2}}{2a}[/tex]

We know the final velocity will happen when the car stops, so the final velocity is zero, leaving us with:

[tex]x=\frac {-V_{0}^{2}}{2a}[/tex]

so we can substitute the provided values to find the distance traveled by the car during this time.

[tex]x=\frac{-(16.667m/s)^{2}}{2(-9.5m/s^{2})}[/tex]

which yields:

x=14.62m

so in total the car traveled:

[tex]x_{tot}=13.333m+14.62m = 27.95m[/tex]

Which is not enough for the car to hit the barrier.

b)

In order to solve this part of the problem, we must combine the two equations we got on the previous part to find a single equation that will represent the total displacement of the car:

[tex]x=vt-\frac{v^{2}}{2a}[/tex]

so we can now substitute the known values so we get:

[tex]40=0.8v-\frac{v^{2}}{2(-9.5)}[/tex]

which simplifies to:

[tex]40=0.8v+0.05263v^{2}[/tex]

this is a quadratic equation so it can be solved by using the quadratic formula, but first we must rewrite it in standard form, so we get:

[tex]0.05263v^{2}+0.8v-40=0[/tex]

now we can use the quadratic formula:

[tex]v=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

So we can substitute the given values:

[tex]v=\frac{-0.8\pm\sqrt{(0.8)^{2}-4(0.05263)(-40)}}{2(0.05263)}[/tex]

which returns two answers:

v=21m/s  and   v=-36.20m/s

We take the positive answer since is the one that represents a moving towards the right side of the drawing.

So the maximum speed at which the car could be moving and not hit the barrier 40 meters ahead is 21m/s

A ball is kicked with an initial velocity of 18.1 m/s in the horizontal direction and 15.8 m/s in the vertical direction. For how long does the ball remain in the air?

Answers

Answer:

3.22 s

Explanation:

The ball would describe a projectile motion, where the horizontal velocity will remain constant, as there are no forces that act on the x-axis, and the vertical velocity will vary because of gravity in the following way:

1. First, the ball will go up, but the vertical velocity will decrease until it has a value of 0.

2. After the vertical velocity has reached the value of 0, the ball will start to fall, with the vertical velocity increasing because of gravity.

You need to know that the time that the ball's verical velocity takes to reach 0 is exactly the same that it takes to go from 0 to its original vertical velocity:

[tex]a = \frac{v_f - v_o}{t}\\t = \frac{v_f - v_o}{a}[/tex]

And not only the time will be the same, but also the distance traveled. Therefore, we can conclude that the time that the ball remain in the air is simply two times the time it takes for the ball to desacelerate:

[tex]t_{desaceleration} = \frac{v_f - v_o}{a} = \frac{0m/s - 15.8m/s}{-9.81 m/s^2} =1.61 s\\t_{air} = 2* t_{desaceleration} = 2*1.61s = 3.22 s[/tex]

An air bubble at the bottom of a lake 36.0 m deep has a volume of 1.22 cm^3. If the temperature at the bottom is 5.9°C and at the top 16.0°C, what is the volume of the bubble just before it reaches the surface?

Answers

Final answer:

The volume of the air bubble just before it reaches the surface is 3.32 cm^3.

Explanation:

To find the volume of the air bubble just before it reaches the surface, we can use the ideal gas law equation: PV = nRT. Since the pressure and amount of gas remain constant, we can rewrite the equation as V/T = k, where V is the volume, T is the temperature, and k is a constant.

Using the given temperatures at the bottom and top of the lake (5.9°C and 16.0°C) and the initial volume of the bubble (1.22 cm^3), we can set up the following equation:

(1.22 cm^3) / (5.9°C) = V / (16.0°C).

Solving for V, the volume of the bubble just before it reaches the surface, we get:

V = (1.22 cm^3)(16.0°C) / (5.9°C) = 3.32 cm^3.

pressure ratio = length ratio

force = 5 N

scale = 1:10

[tex]B_p = 20 m[/tex]

[tex]h_p = 2m[/tex]

an automobile travels on a straight road for 42 km at 45 km/h. it then continues in the same direction for another 42 km at 90 km/h. (assume that it moves in the positive x direction.) a. what is the average velocity of the car during this 84 km trip?
b. what is it’s average speed?
C. Graph x versus t and indicate how the average velocity is found on the graph?

Answers

Answer:

a) The average velocity is v = (60 km/h ; 0)

b) The average speed is 60 km/h

Explanation:

The velocity is a vector that has a magnitude and direction. The average speed is the distance traveled over time without taking into account the direction of the motion.

a)The average velocity is calculated as the displacement over time:

v = Δx/Δt

where

v = velocity

Δx = final position - initial position = traveled distance relative to the center of the reference system.

Δt = final time - initial time (initial time is usually = 0)

We know that the displacement is 84 km but we do not know the time. It can be calculated from the two parts of the trip.

In part 1:

v = 45 km/h = 42 km / t

t = 0.93 h

In part 2:

v = 90 km/h = 42 km / t

t = 42 km / 90 km/h

t = 0.47 h

The time of travel is 0.47 h + 0.93 h = 1.4 h

The average velocity will be:

v = 84 km / 1.4 h = 60 km/h

Expressed as a vector in a 2-dimension plane:

v = (60 km/h; 0)

b) The average speed is calculated as the distance traveled over time. Note that in this case, the distance is equal to the displacement since the direction of the motion is always in one direction. But if the direction of the second part of the trip would have been the opposite to the direction of the first part, the displacement would have been 0 (final position - initial position = 0, because final position = initial position), then, the average velocity would have been 0. In change, the average speed would have been the distance traveled (84 km, 42 km in one direction and 42 km in the other) over time.

Then:

average speed = 84 km / 1.4 h = 60 km/h

A point of charge 4.9 μC is placed at the origin (x1 = 0) of a coordinate system, and another charge of -1.1 μC is placed on the x-axis at x2 = 0.28 m. a) Where on the x-axis can a third charge be placed in meters so that the net force on it is zero?
b) What if both charges are positive; that is, what if the second charge is 1.9 μC?

Answers

Final answer:

To find the location on the x-axis where a third charge can be placed so that the net force on it is zero, we need to consider the forces exerted by the two charges. If both charges are positive, the net force on a third charge placed on the x-axis will never be zero.

Explanation:

a) To find the location on the x-axis where a third charge can be placed so that the net force on it is zero, we need to consider the forces exerted by the two charges. The net force will be zero when the two forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. Using Coulomb's law, we can calculate the force between the first charge and the third charge at an unknown position x3. We can then set that force equal to the force between the second charge and the third charge at the same position x3, and solve for x3.

b) If both charges are positive, the net force on a third charge placed on the x-axis will never be zero. Positive charges repel each other, so the forces will always be in the same direction.

A commuting student leaves home and drives to school at an average speed of 39.0 km/h. After 23.0 min he realizes that he has forgotten his homework and returns home to get it at the same average speed. It takes 10.0 min to find the report, after which the trip to school 39.0 km away to the east is resumed at the same speed as before. What is the average speed for the entire trip ? What is the average velocity for the entire trip?

Answers

Final answer:

The average speed for the entire trip is 83.6 km/h. The average velocity for the entire trip is zero.

Explanation:

The average speed for the entire trip can be calculated by finding the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken. In this case, the student traveled 39.0 km to school and then returned the same distance back home, resulting in a total distance of 78.0 km. The total time taken for the entire trip is the sum of the time taken to drive to school, the time taken to return home, and the time spent finding the report, which is 23.0 min + 23.0 min + 10.0 min = 56.0 min. To convert the total time to hours, divide by 60: 56.0 min / 60 = 0.933 hours. Therefore, the average speed for the entire trip is 78.0 km / 0.933 hours = 83.6 km/h.

The average velocity for the entire trip can be determined by considering both the magnitude and direction of the displacement. In this case, since the student drove in the same direction to school and back home, the displacement is zero, meaning there was no change in position. Thus, the average velocity for the entire trip is also zero.

A truck with a mass of 1650 kg and moving with a speed of 15.0 m/s rear-ends a 779 kg car stopped at an intersection. The collision is approximately elastic since the car is in neutral, the brakes are off, the metal bumpers line up well and do not get damaged. Find the speed of both vehicles after the collision in meters per second.

Answers

Answer:

Truck's speed = 5.21 m/s

Car's speed = 20.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of truck = M = 1650 kg

Speed of the truck initially = U = 15 m/s

Mass of the car = m = 779 kg

Initial speed of the car =u = 0

From the momentum conservation, Total initial momentum = Total final momentum.

M V+m U = M V +m v

⇒ (1650)(15) + 779×0 = (1650)V + 779 v

⇒ 24750 = 1650 V+779 v →(1)

Since the collision is elastic, relative velocity of approach = relative velocity of separation. 15 = v - V

⇒ v =V + 15; This is now substituted in the equation(1) above.

24750 = 1650 V + (799) (V+15)

⇒ 24750 = 1650 V + 799 V + 11985

⇒ 2449 V = 12765

⇒ Final velocity of the truck = [tex]\frac{12765}{2449}[/tex] = 5.21 m/s

Final velocity of the car = v = V+15 = 5.21 + 15 = 20.2 m/s

A person on a trampoline can go higher with each bounce. how is this possible? is there a maximum height to which this person can go?

Answers

Explanation:

when a person jumps on the trampoline he stores his potential energy in the form of elastic energy of trampoline. Potential Energy converts into Elastic energy when a person is at the bottom point during stretching of the trampoline. When he again going upwards, Elastic energy is converted to the potential energy of the person. This is the reason why a person goes higher each time. This process goes on until trampoline reaches its elastic limit and finally breaks or get permanently deformed.

So there is a limit up to which a person can be reached.

Final answer:

A person goes higher on a trampoline by landing and pushing off with their feet, making better use of leg strength to transform kinetic to potential energy. There is a maximum height due to energy losses like air resistance and imperfect energy transfers. The sweet spot in tennis rackets illustrates efficient energy transfer with reduced arm jarring.

Explanation:

A person on a trampoline goes higher with each bounce because they can harness the elastic potential energy stored in the trampoline material. When landing on the back or feet, the height reached can differ.

Typically, a person may reach greater heights when landing and launching off their feet because they can make use of the stronger leg muscles to add upward force, thus converting more kinetic energy to gravitational potential energy upon ascent. There is, indeed, a maximum height obtainable, as energy losses due to factors like air resistance and less-than-perfect energy transfer prevent infinite increases in height.

Addressing the professional application, the 'sweet spot' on a tennis racket is an example of an optimal point where energy transfer from the racket to the ball is the most efficient, and vibrating force transmitted to the player's arm is minimal, hence no jarring of the arm.

The physics of motion and energy conservation provides us the information that increasing the initial speed (kinetic energy) of the object would result in a higher ascent, yet this is bounded by practical limitations such as the strength of the jumper and the efficiency of the trampoline material.

For example, to double the impact speed of a falling object, one would have to quadruple the height from which it falls, due to the relationship between gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy.

The acceleration of a particle moving along a straight line is given by a = −kt2 m/s2 where k is a constant and time t is in seconds. The initial velocity of the particle at t = 0 is v0 = 12 m/s and the particle reverses it direction of motion at t = 6 s. Determine the constant k and the displacement of the particle over the same 6-second interval of motion. Ans: k = 1/6 m/s4, Δs = 54 m

Answers

Answer:

[tex]X - Xo = 54m[/tex]

k = 1/18

Explanation:

Data:

a = -k[tex]t^{2}[/tex][tex]\frac{m}{s^{2} }[/tex]

to = 0s    Vo = 12m/s

t = 6s the particle chage it's moviment, so v = 0 m/s

We know that acceleration is the derivative of velocity related to time:

[tex]a = \frac{dV}{dT}[/tex]

rearranging...

[tex]a*dT = dV[/tex]

Then, we must integrate both sides:

[tex]\int\limits^f_i {dV} \, dV =-k \int\limits^f_i {t^{2} } \, dT[/tex]

[tex]V - Vo = -k\frac{t^{3} }{3}[/tex]

V = 0 because the exercise says that the car change it's direction:

[tex]0 - 12 = -k\frac{6^{3} }{3}[/tex]

k = 1/6

In order to find X - Xo we must integer v*dT = dX

[tex]V - Vo = -k\frac{t^{3} }{3}[/tex]

so...

[tex](Vo -k\frac{t^{3} }{3})dT = dX[/tex]

[tex]\int\limits^f_i {dX} \, dX = \int\limits^f_i {Vo -k\frac{t^{3} }{3} } \, dT[/tex]

integrating...

[tex]X - Xo = Vot -k\frac{t^{4} }{12}[/tex]

[tex]X - Xo = 12*6 -\frac{1}{6}* \frac{6^{4} }{12}[/tex]

X - Xo = 54m

A 75 kg astronaut has become detached from their her space ship. To get back to the ship she throws a tool in the opposite direction to the spaceship with a force of 16 N. What is her acceleration during the throw assuming that distances going away from the spaceship are positive?

Answers

Answer:

0.21 m/s/s.

Explanation:

Whenever there is an action force acting on a body, there will be a reaction force.

Here the force with which the astronaut throws the tool is given as 16 N.

Force is measured in newtons and is equal to the rate of change of momentum.

Since the astronaut has a mass, she experience a reaction force. It is given by F = ma, according to Newton's 2nd law.

16 = 75 a

⇒ Acceleration = a = F/m = 16/75 = 0.21 m/s/s

Two hockey pucks, labeled A and B, are initially at rest on a smooth ice surface and are separated by a distance of 26.0 m . Simultaneously, each puck is given a quick push, and they begin to slide directly toward each other. Puck A moves with a speed of 2.30 m/s , and puck B moves with a speed of 3.90 m/s .

Your answer should satisfy common sense. For instance, can you decide which of the following values for the distance covered by puck A would definitely be wrong, regardless of the speed of the two pucks and considering that the two pucks are sliding toward each other?

(A) 5 m
(B) 33 m
(C) 27 m
(D) 1 m
(E) 21 m

Answers

Answer:

B) 33 m C) 27 m

Explanation:

considering that the two pucks are sliding toward each other we can understand that they are on a collision course.

Since the total distance between them is 26 m, the common sense dictates that the distance traveled by each puck must be less than 26 m regardless of the speed of the two pucks.

so the options B) 33 m and C) 27 m are definitely wrong since they are greater than 26 m.

We can also easily find the distance traveled by each pucks also.

let [tex]v_{A}[/tex] and [tex]v_{B}[/tex] be the velocity of the pucks A and B respectively

[tex]v_{A}t = 26- v_{B}t\\\\2.30t = 26 - 3.90t\\\\6.2t = 26\\\\t = \frac{26}{6.2} \\\\x_{A} =v_{A}t\\\\x_{A} =2.3 \times \frac{26}{6.2}\\\\x_{A} =9.65\\\\x_{B} =v_{B}t\\\\x_{B} =3.9 \times \frac{26}{6.2}\\\\x_{B} =16.35\\[/tex]

The driver of a pick up truck going 100 km/h applies the brakes, giving the truck a form deceleration of 6.50 m/s^2 while it travels 20.0 m. What is the speed of the truck in km/h at the end of this distance?

Answers

Answer:

81.42 km/h

Explanation:

t = Time taken for the car to slow down

u = Initial velocity = 100 km/h

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement = 20 m = 0.02 km

a = Acceleration = -6.5 m/s² = -0.0065×60×60×60×60 = -84240 km/h²

Equation of motion

[tex]v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times -84240\times 0.02+100^2}\\\Rightarrow v=81.42\ km/h[/tex]

Speed of the truck at the end of this distance is 81.42 km/h

Final answer:

Using the equation of motion v^2 = u^2 + 2as, and converting the initial speed from km/hr to m/s, the final velocity is approximately 15.22 m/s when deceleration and distance are considered. Converted back to km/hr, this is approximately 54.8 km/hr.

Explanation:

The final speed of the truck can be calculated using one of the equations of motion, specifically v^2 = u^2 + 2as, where 'v' is final velocity, 'u' is initial velocity, 'a' is acceleration (which in this case is -6.50 m/s^2 due to deceleration), and 's' is distance. Convert the initial speed from km/hr to m/s: 100 km/hr = 27.78 m/s.

Then, we can plug the values into the formula: v^2 = (27.78 m/s)^2 - 2(6.50 m/s^2)(20.0 m). Solving the equation gives a final velocity of approximately 15.22 m/s. This speed in km/h is then obtained by converting m/s back, 15.22 m/s * (3600 / 1000) = 54.8 km/h. So, the speed of the truck at the end of the distance is approximately 54.8 km/h.

Answers

Final answer:

The electrostatic force between an electron and a proton separated by 0.1mm, calculated using Coulomb's law, is approximately 2.3 × 10^-20N, and it is attractive due to the opposite charges.

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between charged particles can be calculated using Coulomb's law: F = k(Q1*Q2)/r², where F is the force, k is Coulomb's constant (~8.99 * 10^9 Nm^2/C^2), Q1 and Q2 are the charges, and r is the separation in meters. An electron and a proton have charges of -1.6*10^-19 C and +1.6*10^-19 C respectively. Plugging these values into Coulomb's law with a separation of 0.1 mm or 0.1*10^-3 meters, we find that the force is approximately 2.3 × 10^-20N, and it is attractive because the charges are opposite.

B. At what time after the brakes were applied was the car traveling at 12.5m/s?
C. At what time did the car travel only half the stopping distance?

Answers

Answer:

(a) -3.173 m/s^2

(b) 3.94 s

(c) 2.47 s

Explanation:

initial velocity, u = 25 m/s

final velocity, v = 0

distance, s = 98.5 m

(a) Let a be the acceleration of the car

Use third equation of motion

[tex]v^{2}=u^{2}+2as[/tex]

0 = 625 + 2 x a x 98.5

a = -3.173 m/s^2

(b) v = 12.5 m/s

u = 25 m/s

a = - 3.173 m/s^2

Let the time is t.

Use first equation of motion

v = u + a t

12.5 = 25 - 3.173 t

t = 3.94 s

(c) s = 98.5 / 2 = 49.25 m

u = 25 m/s

a = - 3.173 m/s^2

Let the time be t.

Let v be the velocity at this distance.

Use third equation of motion

[tex]v^{2}=u^{2}+2as[/tex]

[tex]v^{2}=25^{2}+2\times {-3.173}\ times 49.25tex]

A ball is thrown horizontally with a speed of 15 m/s, from the top of a 6.0 m tall hill. How far from the point on the ground directly below the launch point does the ball strike the ground?

Answers

Answer:16.59 m

Explanation:

Given

initial horizontal speed of ball(u)=15 m/s

Height of building =6 m

Consider vertical motion first

[tex]h=u_yt+\frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]

here initial vertical velocity is zero

[tex]6=0+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2[/tex]

[tex]t=\sqrt{\frac{12}{9.81}}=1.106 s[/tex]

Thus time taken will also be 1.106 s in horizontal motion

[tex]R_x=u_xt+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]

here a=0

[tex]R_x=15\times 1.106=16.59 m[/tex]

Final answer:

The total time that the ball is in the air can be calculated using the formula for free fall, which is 1.10 seconds. Given that time and the constant horizontal speed, we can then calculate the total horizontal distance traveled by the ball, which is 16.5 meters.

Explanation:

To calculate the horizontal distance the ball travels before striking the ground, we must first determine how long the ball is in the air. This time is only affected by the vertical motion, thus we can treat the ball as if it were dropped from the hill with no initial horizontal velocity. The formula used to calculate the time is based on free fall, where t = sqrt((2*h)/g). In this case, h = 6.0 m (the height of the hill) and g = 9.8 m/s² (the acceleration due to gravity). This gives us t = sqrt((2*6)/9.8) = 1.10 s.

Once we have the time of flight, we can calculate the horizontal distance traveled using the horizontal speed of the ball. As the horizontal motion occurs at a constant velocity we can use the formula d = v*t, where v = 15 m/s (the speed the ball is thrown) and t = 1.10 s. This gives us the horizontal distance d = 15*1.10 = 16.5 m.

Determine the position, velocity, and acceleration of the boarder expressed when t = 12 seconds. (Round the final answer to one decimal place.)

Answers

Final answer:

To find the position, velocity, and acceleration of the snowboarder at t = 12 seconds, evaluate the given displacement equation and its first and second derivatives at t = 12 seconds, then round the final answers to one decimal place.

Explanation:

To determine the position, velocity, and acceleration of the snowboarder at t = 12 seconds, we need to evaluate the given displacement function x(t) = 0.5t³ + t² + 2t and its derivatives at that specific time value.

Position at t = 12 seconds

By substituting t = 12 into the displacement function, we get:
x(12) = 0.5(12)³ + (12)² + 2(12), which can be calculated to give the position x.

Velocity at t = 12 seconds

The velocity v(t) is the first derivative of the displacement function, v(t) = 1.5t² + 2t + 2. Evaluate v(12) to find the velocity at t = 12 seconds.

Acceleration at t = 12 seconds

Acceleration a(t) is the second derivative of the displacement function, a(t) = 3t + 2. Evaluate a(12) to find the acceleration at t = 12 seconds.

Using these steps, you can calculate the exact values and round them to one decimal place as asked in the question.
