Answer:
The acceleration of the train must be - 0.133 m/s²
Explanation:
A train in order for it to stop 12 m/s in a distance if 541 m
That means the initial velocity of the train is 12 m/s
Its final velocity is zero (stop)
The distance it covers is 541 m
P.S. This is part of the answer of another brainly user this is not my knowledge.
But Hope I helped you
Answer:
-0.133 m/s²
Explanation:
Given:
Δx = 541 m
v₀ = 12 m/s
v = 0 m/s
Find: a
v² = v₀² + 2aΔx
(0 m/s)² = (12 m/s)² + 2a (541 m)
a = -0.133 m/s²
A hockey puck initially travelling to the right at 34 m/s. It moves for 7 before
coming to a stop. How far did it move in 7 seconds?
You can use kinematic equations
Answer:
[tex]x=119m[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, since the hockey puck was moving at 34 m/s and suddenly stopped (final velocity is zero) in 7 seconds, we can first compute the acceleration via:
[tex]a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}=\frac{0m/s-34m/s}{7s}\\ \\a=-4.86m/s^2[/tex]
In such a way, we can compute the displacement via:
[tex]x=\frac{v_f^2-v_o^2}{2a}\\ \\x=\frac{0^2-(34m/s)^2}{2*-4.86m/s^2}\\ \\x=119m[/tex]

You drop a ball from a window located on an upper floor of a building. It strikes the ground with speed v. You now repeat the drop, but you ask a friend down on the ground to throw another ball upward at speed v. Your friend throws the ball upward at the same moment that you drop yours from the window. At some location, the balls pass each other. Is this location.
Answer:
y = y₀ (1 - ½ g y₀ / v²)
Explanation:
This is a free fall problem. Let's start with the ball that is released from the window, with initial velocity vo = 0 and a height of the window i
y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²
y = y₀ - ½ g t²
for the ball thrown from the ground with initial velocity v₀₂ = v
y₂ = y₀₂ + v₀₂ t - ½ g t²
in this case y₀ = 0
y₂2 = v t - ½ g t²
at the point where the two balls meet, they have the same height
y = y₂
y₀ - ½ g t² = vt - ½ g t²
y₀i = v t
t = y₀ / v
since we have the time it takes to reach the point, we can substitute in either of the two equations to find the height
y = y₀ - ½ g t²
y = y₀ - ½ g (y₀ / v)²
y = y₀ - ½ g y₀² / v²
y = y₀ (1 - ½ g y₀ / v²)
with this expression we can find the meeting point of the two balls

An object, initially at rest, moves 250 m in 17 s. What is its acceleration?
Answer:
1.73 m/s²
Explanation:
Given:
Δx = 250 m
v₀ = 0 m/s
t = 17 s
Find: a
Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²
250 m = (0 m/s) (17 s) + ½ a (17 s)²
a = 1.73 m/s²
The acceleration of this object is 1.730 meter per seconds square.
Given the following data:
Initial velocity = 2.5 m/s (since the object is starting from rest).Time = 17 seconds.To find the acceleration of this object, we would use the second equation of motion.
Mathematically, the second equation of motion is given by the formula;
[tex]S = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2[/tex]
Where:
S is the displacement or distance covered.u is the initial velocity.a is the acceleration.t is the time measured in seconds.Substituting the given values into the formula, we have;
[tex]250 = 0(17) + \frac{1}{2} (a)(17^2)\\\\250 = \frac{1}{2} (289)a\\\\250 = 144.5a\\\\a = \frac{250}{144.5}[/tex]
Acceleration, a = 1.730 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]
Therefore, the acceleration of this object is 1.730 meter per seconds square.

Using the equation for Impact, can you explain the following:
Why are car steering rods designed to collapse?
Why are highway guard rails designed to crumple up on impact?
Why are traffic saftey barrels filled with water or sand?
Explanation:
Equation for Impact
FΔt = ΔP,
F = force
Δt = Impact of time
ΔP = Change in momentum
Car steering is engineered to fail in order to maximize the time of contact and hence reduce the initial impact and mitigate the damage incurred.
Road guard railing crumple on contact to maximize impact time and hence reduce impact intensity and mitigate damage.
Road safety containers are loaded with liquid or sand as they improve the period of impact.

ou are walking down a straight path in a park and notice there is another person walking some distance ahead of you. The distance between the two of you remains the same, so you deduce that you are walking at the same speed of 1.05 m/s. Suddenly, you notice a wallet on the ground. You pick it up and realize it belongs to the person in front of you. To catch up, you start running at a speed of 2.75 m/s. It takes you 18.5 s to catch up and deliver the lost wallet. How far ahead of you was this person when you started running
Answer:
The value is [tex]d = 31.45 \ m [/tex]
Explanation:
Generally the relative speed at which you are moving with respect to the person ahead of you is mathematically represented as
[tex]v_r = v_s - v_c[/tex]
substituting 1.05 m/s for [tex] v_c [/tex] and 2.75 m/s for [tex]v_s[/tex]
So
[tex]v_r = 2.75 - 1.05[/tex]
=> [tex]v_r = 1.7 \ m/s [/tex]
Generally the distance by which the person is ahead of you is mathematically represented as
[tex]d = v_r * t[/tex]
substituting 18.5 s for [tex] t [/tex]
[tex]d = 1.7 * 18.5[/tex]
=> [tex]d = 31.45 \ m [/tex]

Answer:
what's the question ,so I can answer it right ?
r = (2+2+1) i - (t+1)] + t3 k
what is the direction of initial velocity
Answer:
In the - j direction, that is negative of the y-axis
Explanation:
As typed in the question, the position of the object is given by the expression in three component ( i, j, k) form:
r (t) = 5 i - (t + 1 ) j + t^3 k
and since the velocity is the derivative of position with respect to time, by doing the derivative of this expression we get:
v(t) = 0 i - 1 j +3 t^2 k
which for the initial velocity requested (that is at time zero) we have:
v(t) = 0 i - 1 j +3 (0)^2 k = = 1 j
Then the direction of the initial velocity is entirely in the direction of the j versor, that is pointing to the negative of the y-axis.
When a piano tuner strikes both the A above middle C on the piano and a 440 Hz tuning fork, he hears 4 beats each second. The frequency of the piano's:____________.
A) 444 Hz
B) 880 Hz
C) 436 Hz
D) either 436 Hz or 444 Hz
Answer:
D) either 436 Hz or 444 Hz
Explanation:
frequency of the tuning fork, F₁ = 440 Hz
frequency of the piano, F₂ = ?
Beat frequency, F = 4 Hz
Beat frequency is given as the difference between the frequency of the two instruments and it is given by;
F = F₂ - F₁ or F = F₁ - F₂
F₂ = F + F₁ or F - F₁ = - F₂
F₂ = 4 Hz + 440 Hz or 4 - 440 = - F₂
F₂ = 444 Hz or - 436 = - F₂
F₂ = 444 Hz or F₂ = 436 Hz
Therefore, the frequency of the piano is 444 Hz or 436 Hz
Air that initially occupies 0.22 m3 at a gauge pressure of 86 kPa is expanded isothermally to a pressure of 101.3 kPa and then cooled at constant pressure until it reaches its initial volume. Compute the work done by the air. (Gauge pressure is the difference between the actual pressure and atmospheric pressure.)
Answer:
total work done = -5960.8 J
Explanation:
given data
initial volume v1 = 0.22 m³
initial pressure p1 = 86 kPa
final pressue p2 = 101.3 kPa
solution
we apply here isothermal expansion that is express as
p1 × v1 = p2 × v2 ......................1
put here value
86 × 0.22 = 101.3 × v2
v2 = 0.1867 m³
and
work done will be here
w1 = p1 × v1 × ln([tex]\frac{p1}{p2}[/tex]) ....................2
w1 = 86 × 10³ × 0.22 × [tex]ln(\frac{86}{101.3})[/tex]
w1 = -3.097 × 10³ J
and
it is cooled to initial volume at constant pressure so here work done will be
w2 = p(v2 - v1) .................3
w2 = 86 × 10³ × ( 0.1867 - 0.22 )
w2 = -2863.8 J
so
total work done is
total work done = w1 + w2
total work done = -3097 + -2863.8
total work done = -5960.8 J

A car starts at 80 m/s but sees a cop and hits the brakes slowing down to 50 m/s in 2 sec.
Answer:
-15m/s/s
Explanation:
Acceleration = change in speed/ change in time
The change in speed is calculated by subtracting the initial speed from the final speed, so the change in speed is: 50 - 80 = -30m/s. The change in time is 2 - 0 = 2.
So the car acceleration is -30/2 = -15m/s/s
It is negative because it is decelerating.

An airplane with a hot-wire anemometer mounted on its wing tip is to fly through the turbulent boundary layer of the atmosphere at a speed of 50 m/sec. The velocity fluctuations in the atmosphere are of order 0.5 m/sec, the length scale of the large eddies is about 100 m. The hot-wire anemometer is to be designed so that it will register the motion of the smallest eddies.What is the highest frequency the anemometer will encounter
Answer:
0.55 hz
Explanation:
Given that the plane fly through the turbulent boundary layer of the atmosphere at a speed of 50 m/sec. And the velocity fluctuations in the atmosphere are of order 0.5 m/sec, the length scale of the large eddies is about 100 m.
The maximum speed attained will be
Maximum speed = 50 + 0.5 = 5.5 m/s
The Length = 100m
Speed = FL
Where F = frequency
Substitute speed and distance length into the formula
55 = 100F
F = 55/100
F = 0.55 Hz
Therefore, the highest frequency the anemometer will encounter will be 0.55 Hz
Answer:
40079 Hz
Explanation:
1. The first step is to calculate energy dissipation ∈=u^3/l and here u is fluctuating velocity
∈=(0.5^3)/100 = 0.00125 m^2/s^3
2. Find out the length scale of the small eddies
η=(viscosity/∈)^1/4
η=(1.470e-5/0.00125)^1/4 = 0.00126 m
3. The frequency associated with these small-scale eddies will be the greatest frequency the anemometer will encounter, thus:
u_max=f_max * η
u_max = u + u' = 50+0.5=50.5 m/s
f_max = u_max/η = 50.5/0.00126 = 40079 Hz
This is the heighest frequency the anemometer will encounter.

The chilled water system for a 27-story building has a pump located at ground level. The lost head in a vertical riser from the pump to an equipment room on the twenty-seventh floor is 40ft of water, and the pump produces 270ft of head. What is the pressure on the suction side of the pump for a pressure of 8 psig to exist in the riser on the twenty-fifth floor
Assume 12ft of elevation per floor
Answer: 48.68 psig
Explanation:
First we calculate the elevation of the building
hb = 27 story * 12ft per floor/story
hb = 324 ft
given that the head lost in the vertical riser hL = 40 ft
now the delivery head required in the riser on he 27th floor;
hd = 8 psig * (2.31 ft / 1 psig)
hd = 18.46 ft
Now calculate the suction head required by balancing the energy per unit weight of water, considering pump as the control volume
hp = (hb + hL + hd) - hs
hs = hb + hL + hd - hp
where hp is the head developed by the pump (270 ft)
hb is the elevation of the 27th floor of the building ( 324 ft)
hL is the head lost in the vertical riser ( 40 ft)
hd is the head required to exist in the riser on the 27th floor (18.46 ft)
so we substitute
hs = 324 ft + 40 ft + 18.46 ft - 270 ft
hs = 112.46
so 112.46ft * (1 psig / 2.31 ft)
= 48.68 psig
You are trying to get to class on time using the UCF Shuttle. You are later than usual getting to the stop and see the shuttle pulling away from the stop while you are still 3.9 m behind the bus stop. In 40.9 m you will reach a barrier and you must catch the shuttle before that point. The shuttle has a constant acceleration of 4.5 m/s2. What is the minimum velocity you have to run at to catch the bus before it reaches the barrier
Answer:
20.1 m/s
Explanation:
Since You are later than usual getting to the stop and see the shuttle pulling away from the stop while you are still 3.9 m behind the bus stop. And In 40.9 m you will reach a barrier and you must catch the shuttle before that point.
Given that the shuttle has a constant acceleration of 4.5 m/s2.
The total distance to cover is:
Total distance = 40.9 + 3.9 = 44.8 m
Assuming you are starting from rest. Then initial velocity U = 0
Using the 3rd equation of motion to calculate the minimum velocity.
V^2 = U^2 + 2as
V^2 = 0 + 2 × 4.5 × 44.8
V^2 = 403.2
V = sqrt (403.2)
V = 20.1 m/s
Therefore, the minimum velocity you have to run at to catch the bus before it reaches the barrier is 20.1 m/s

Your GPS shows that your friend’s house is 10.0 km away (Figure 2). But there is a big hill between your houses and you don’t want to bike there directly. You know your friend’s street is 6.0 km north of your street. How far do you have to ride before turning north to get to your friend’s house?
8 km
Part B
Referring to the diagram in Part A, what is the sine of the angle
θ at the location of the friend's house?
Answer:
Part A
You have to ride 8.0 km before turning north to get to your friend’s house.
Part B
The sine of the angle θ at the location of the friend's house is 0.8
Explanation:
The remaining part of the question which is an image is attached below
Explanation:
Part A
To determine how far you will ride ride before turning north,
From the diagram, that is the distance of your street.
Let the distance of your street be [tex]A[/tex]
and the distance of your friend's street be [tex]B[/tex]
and let the displacement between your friends house and your house be [tex]C[/tex]
The relation in the diagram shows a right angle triangle.
The sides of the right angle triangle are represented as [tex]A,B[/tex] and [tex]C[/tex].
To find [tex]A[/tex], which is the distance of your street,
From Pythagorean theorem, 'The square of hypotenuse is the sum of squares of the other two sides'
That is,
[tex]/Hypoyenuse/^{2} = /Adjacent/^{2} + /Opposite/^{2}[/tex]
[tex]C[/tex] is the hypotenuse, which is the displacement between your friends house and your house,
Hence, [tex]C = 10.0 km[/tex]
[tex]B[/tex] is adjacent, which is the distance of your friends street
then, [tex]B = 6.0 km[/tex]
and [tex]A[/tex] is the opposite, which is the distance of your house
From Pythagoras theorem, we can then write that,
[tex]C^{2} = B^{2} + A^{2}[/tex]
Then, [tex]10.0^{2} = 6.0^{2} + A^{2}[/tex]
[tex]A^{2} = 100.0 - 36.0\\A^{2} = 64.0\\A = \sqrt{64.0}[/tex]
[tex]A = 8.0km[/tex]
Hence, you have to ride 8.0 km before turning north to get to your friend’s house.
Part B
To find the sine of the angle θ at the location of the friend's house,
In the diagram, the sine of the angle θ is given by
[tex]Sin\theta = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]
Hence, [tex]Sin\theta = \frac{A}{C}[/tex]
Then,
[tex]Sin\theta = \frac{8.0}{10}[/tex]
[tex]Sin\theta = 0.8[/tex]
Hence, the sine of the angle θ at the location of the friend's house is 0.8
A. The amount of distance you have to ride before turning North to get to your friend’s house is 8 kilometers.
B. The sine of the angle (θ) at the location of your friend's house is 0.8.
Let your friend's house be a.Let your friend's street be b.Let the distance between your house and your friend be c.Given the following data:
Distance c = 10 kmDistance a = 6 kmA. To determine the amount of distance you have to ride before turning North to get to your friend’s house, we would apply Pythagorean's theorem:
Mathematically, Pythagorean's theorem is given by the formula:
[tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2\\\\10^2 =6^2+b^2\\\\100=36+b^2\\\\b^2 =100-36\\\\b^2 =64\\\\b=\sqrt{64}[/tex]
b = 8 kilometers
B. To find the sine of the angle (θ) at the location of the friend's house:
Mathematically, the sine of an angle is given by the formula:
[tex]Sin\theta = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]
Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;
[tex]Sin\theta = \frac{8}{10} \\\\Sin\theta = 0.8[/tex]

The hot reservoir for a Carnot engine has a temperature of 889 K, while the cold reservoir has a temperature of 657 K. The heat input for this engine is 4710 J. The 657-K reservoir also serves as the hot reservoir for a second Carnot engine. This second engine uses the rejected heat of the first engine as input and extracts additional work from it. The rejected heat from the second engine goes into a reservoir that has a temperature of 406 K. Find the total work delivered by the two engines.
Answer:
Explanation:
Efficiency of first engine
= T₁ - T₂ / T₁ where T₁ is temperature of hot reservoir , T₂ is temperature of cold reservoir
= (889 - 657 ) / 889
= ,261 or 26.1 %
output of work = .261 x 4710 = 1229.15 J .
Efficiency of second engine
= (657 - 406 ) / 657
= .382
Heat rejected in engine one is heat input of second engine
heat input of second engine = 4710 - 1229.15 = 3480.85
output of work of second engine
= .382 x 3480.85 = 1329.68 J
Total work delivered by two engine
= 1229.15 + 1329.68 J
= 2558.83 J
a) How long (in ns) does it take light to travel 1.0 m in a vacuum?
b) What distance does light travel in water, glass, cubic zirconia during the time it travels in 1.0 m vacuum?
Answer:
a
[tex]t = 3.33 \ ns[/tex]
b
i [tex]D_w =0.75 \ m [/tex]
ii [tex]D_g =0.67 \ m [/tex]
iii [tex]D_c =0.46 \ m [/tex]
Explanation:
Generally the time taken to travel 1 m in a vacuum is mathematically represented as
[tex]t = \frac{1}{c}[/tex]
Here c is the speed of light with value [tex]c = 3.0*10^{8} \ m/s[/tex]
So
[tex]t = \frac{1}{3.0*10^{8}}[/tex]
[tex]t = 3.33*10^{-9} \ s[/tex]
[tex]t = 3.33 \ ns[/tex]
The distance light travels in water is mathematically represented as
[tex]D_w = \frac{c}{n_w} * t[/tex]
Here n_w is the refractive index of water with value 1.333
So
[tex]D_w = \frac{3.0*10^{8}}{1.333} * 3.33*10^{-9}[/tex]
[tex]D_w =0.75 \ m [/tex]
The distance light travels in glass is mathematically represented as
[tex]D_g = \frac{c}{n_g} * t[/tex]
Here n_g is the refractive index of glass with value 1.5
So
[tex]D_g = \frac{3.0*10^{8}}{1.5} * 3.33*10^{-9}[/tex]
[tex]D_g =0.67 \ m [/tex]
The distance light travels in cubic zirconia is mathematically represented as
[tex]D_c = \frac{c}{n_g} * t[/tex]
Here n_c is the refractive index of cubic zirconia with value 2.15
So
[tex]D_c = \frac{3.0*10^{8}}{2.15} * 3.33*10^{-9}[/tex]
[tex]D_c =0.46 \ m [/tex]
