A 1200 kg car reaches the top of a 100 m high hill at A with a speed vA. What is the value of vA that will allow the car to coas

t in neutral so as to just reach the top of the 150 m high hill at B with vB = 0? Neglect friction.

Answer:

the value of vA that will allow the car to coast in neutral so as to just reach the top of the 150 m high hill at B with vB = 0 is 31.3 m/s

Explanation:

given information

car's mass, m = 1200 kg

h_{A} = 100 m

v_{A} = v_{A}

h_{B} = 150 m

v_{B} = 0

according to conservative energy

the distance from point A to B, h = 150 m - 100 m = 50 m

the initial speed v_{A}

final speed  v_{B} = 0

thus,

v_{B}² = v_{A}² - 2 g h

0 = v_{A}² - 2 g h

v_{A}² = 2 g h

v_{A} = √2 g h

    = √2 (9.8) (50)

    = 31.3 m/s

An object is moving in the plane according to these parametric equations:
aniked [119]
A. The horizontal velocity is 
vx = dx/dt = π - 4πsin (4πt + π/2)
vx = π - 4π sin (0 + π/2)
vx = π - 4π (1)
vx = -3π

b. vy = 4π cos (4πt + π/2)
vy = 0

c. m = sin(4πt + π/2) / [<span>πt + cos(4πt + π/2)]

d. m = </span>sin(4π/6 + π/2) / [π/6 + cos(4π/6 + π/2)]

e. t = -1.0

f. t = -0.35

g. Solve for t 
vx = π - 4πsin (4πt + π/2) = 0
Then substitute back to solve for vxmax

h. Solve for t
vy = 4π cos (4πt + π/2) = 0
The substitute back to solve for vymax

i. s(t) = [<span>x(t)^2 + y</span>(t)^2]^(1/2)

h. s'(t) = d [x(t)^2 + y(t)^2]^(1/2) / dt

k and l. Solve for the values of t
d [x(t)^2 + y(t)^2]^(1/2) / dt = 0
And substitute to determine the maximum and minimum speeds.

17. The edges of a rectangular solid have these measures: 1.5 feet by 1½ feet by 3 inches. What is its volume in cubic inches? a
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

c. 972

Explanation:

The volume of a rectangular solid is calculated as the product of its dimensions, that is, its width, its length and its height:

V=a*b*h

1 feet is equal to 12 inches, so:

a=1.5ft*\frac{12in}{1ft}=18in\\b=(1+\frac{1}{2})ft\\b=\frac{3}{2}ft*\frac{12in}{1ft}=18in

Now, we calculate the volume of the object in cubic inches:

V=18in*18in*3in\\V=972in^3

A tennis player standing 12.6m from the net hits the ball at 3.00 degrees above the horizontal. To clear the net, the ball must
mezya [45]
We actually don't need to know how far he/she is standing from the net, as we know that the ball reaches its maximum height (vertex) at the net. At the vertex, it's vertical velocity is 0, since it has stopped moving up and is about to come back down, and its displacement is 0.33m. So we use v² = u² + 2as (neat trick I discovered just then for typing the squared sign: hold down alt and type 0178 on ur numpad wtih numlock on!!!) ANYWAY....... We apply v² = u² + 2as in the y direction only. Ignore x direction. 
IN Y DIRECTION: v² = u² + 2as 0 = u² - 2gh u = √(2gh) (Sub in values at the very end) 
So that will be the velocity in the y direction only. But we're given the angle at which the ball is hit (3° to the horizontal). So to find the velocity (sum of the velocity in x and y direction on impact) we can use: sin 3° = opposite/hypotenuse = (velocity in y direction only) / (velocity) So rearranging, velocity = (velocity in y direction only) / sin 3° = √(2gh)/sin 3° = (√(2 x 9.8 x 0.33)) / sin 3° = 49 m/s at 3° to the horizontal (2 sig figs)
