In 1991 four English teenagers built an eletric car that could attain a speed of 30.0m/s. Suppose it takes 8.0s for this car to

accelerate from 18.0m/s to 30.0m/s. What is the magnitude of the car's acceleration?

Answer:

Acceleration of the vehicle, a=1.5\ m/s^2

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the vehicle is u = 18 m/s

The final velocity of the vehicle is v = 30 m/s

The time duration for this change is t = 8 s

To find the acceleration, denoted as a, we can apply the first equation of motion.

v=u+at

Where

a represents the car’s acceleration.

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}

a=\dfrac{30-18}{8}      

a=1.5\ m/s^2

Thus, the car's acceleration is 1.5\ m/s^2. This is the solution we are looking for.

a=Δv/Δt=(30.0-18.0)/8.0=12.0/8.0=1.5 m/s²

A rope connects boat A to boat B. Boat A starts from rest and accelerates to a speed of 9.5 m/s in a time t = 47 s. The mass of
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer: 339.148N

Explanation:

Given data:

Time (t) = 47s

Initial speed (U) = 0m/s

Final speed (V) = 9.5m/s

Mass of B = 540kg

Frictional force on B = 230N

Since both boats are linked, movement of A causes B to move as well.

What is the acceleration of boat A?

Applying the motion formula:

V = u + at

9.5 = 0 + a * 47

a = 9.5 / 47

a = 0.2021 m/s²

To determine the force necessary to accelerate boat B, as both boats experience the same force:

F = Mass * acceleration

F = 540 * 0.2021 = 109.14N

Given that there is a frictional force of 230N acting on boat B, the overall force (Tension) becomes:

Tension = frictional force + applied force = (109.14 + 230)N = 339.148N

A 7.5 kg cannon ball leaves a canon with a speed of 185 m/s. Find the average net force applied to the ball if the cannon muzzle
Keith_Richards [3271]

To determine the average net force, we can calculate acceleration using:

x = 0.5*a*t^2

v = a*t

where x=3.6m and v=185 m/s.

Thus,

t=v/a and therefore x = 0.5*a*(v/a)^2 = 0.5 * (v^2)/a

which gives us a= (0.5*v^2)/x

Since we have the known values of v and x, we can compute a by substituting these numbers.

The average net force is then given as:

F = m*a,

with m=7.5kg.

Derive an equation for the acceleration of block 3 for any arbitrary values of m3 and m2. Express your answer in terms of m3, m2
Ostrovityanka [3204]

The complete question is;

Block 1 sits on the floor with block 2 resting atop it. Block 3, which is stationary on a frictionless table, is attached to block 2 via a string that passes over a pulley depicted in the illustration below. Both the string and pulley have negligible mass.

Once block 1 is taken away without impacting block 2.

Derive an equation for the acceleration of block 3 considering arbitrary values for m3 and m2. Express your answer in terms of m3, m2, and relevant physical constants as needed.

Answer:

a = (m2)g/(m3 + m2)

Explanation:

Examining the attached illustration, by analyzing the free body diagram for block 3 and utilizing Newton's first law of motion, we reach the following formula;

T = (m3)a - - - (eq 1)

where;

T is the tension in the string

a is acceleration

m3 is the mass of block 3

Simultaneously, doing the same for Block 2, the free body diagram yields the equation; (m2)g - T = (m2)a

Rearranging for T results in;

T = (m2)g - (m2)a - - - (eq 2)

where;

g represents acceleration due to gravity

T is the tension in the string

a is acceleration

m2 is the mass of block 2

To deduce the acceleration, we will substitute (m3)a in place of T in eq 2.

Thus;

(m3)a = (m2)g - (m2)a

(m3)a + (m2)a = (m2)g

a(m3 + m2) = (m2)g

a = (m2)g/(m3 + m2)
