A particle moves according to a law of motion s = f(t), t ≥ 0, where t is measured in seconds and s in feet. f(t) = 0.01t4 − 0.0
masya89 [10]
The distance (ft) traveled by the particle at time t (s) is
s(t) = 0.01 t⁴ - 0.02 t³

Part (a)
The velocity at time t is
v(t) = 0.04t³ - 0.06t²  ft/s

Part (b)
After 1 s, the velocity is
v(1) = 0.04 - 0.06 = - 0.02 ft/s

Part (c)
When the particle is at rest, the velocity is zero. The time when this happens is given by
0.04t³ - 0.06t² = 0
t²(0.04t - 0.06) = 0
The graph shown below presents a clear picture of the motion.

Answer:
t = 0 (smaller value) or t = 1.5 s (larger value)

By means of a rope whose mass is negligible, two blocks are suspended over a pulley, as the drawing shows. The pulley can be tre
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Mass of the pull is 77 kg

Explanation:

Here we have for

Since  the rope moves along with pulley, we have

For the first block we have

T₁ - m₁g = -m₁a = -m₁g/4

T₁ =  3/4(m₁g) = 323.4 N

Similarly, as the acceleration of the second block is the same as the first block but in opposite direction, we have

T₂ - m₂g = m₂a = m₂g/4

T₂ =  5/4(m₂g) = 134.75 N

T₂r - T₁r = I·∝ = 0.5·M·r²(-α/r)

∴ M = -\frac{2}{a} (T_2-T_1)

M = -\frac{2}{2.45} (134.75-323.4) = 77 \, kg

Mass of the pull = 77 kg.

What is true of an object pulled inward in an electric field?
slava [35]

Answer:

option b

Explanation:

There is an object pulled inward in an electric field.

We have to find out of the four options given which is true.

a) The object has a neutral charge is false since when electric field pulls the object inward, there is a charge inside.

b) The object has a charge opposite that of the field, this option is correct since there will be an equal and opposite charge created by the object

c) The object has a negative charge will be correct only if the original charge was positive hence wrong

d) The object has a charge the same as that of the field is incorrect since this would be opposite the charge

So only option b is right

Think of something from everyday life that follows a two-dimensional path. It could be a kicked football, a bus that's turning a
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Let us consider the case of a bus turning around a corner with a constant velocity, as the bus approaches the corner, the velocity at say point A is Va, and is tangential to the curve with direction pointing away from the curve. Also, the velocity at another point say point B is Vb and is also tangential to the curve with direction pointing away from the curve.<em> </em><em>Although the velocity at point A and the velocity at point B have the same magnitude, their directions are different (velocity is a vector quantity), and hence we have a change in velocity. By definition, an acceleration occurs when we have a change in velocity, so the bus experiences an acceleration at the corner whose direction is away from the center of the corner</em>.

The acceleration is not aligned with the direction of travel because<em> the change in velocity is at a tangent (directed away) to the direction of travel of the bus.</em>
