A uniformly accelerated car passes three equally spaced traffic signs. The signs are separated by a distance d = 25 m. The car p

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

a) $v_{1}=\frac{x_{2}-x_{1} }{t_{2}-t_{1} }=\frac{(2(\frac{25}{3})-\frac{25}{3} )m}{3.9s-1.3s} =3.2051 \frac{m}{s}$

b) $v_{2}=\frac{x_{3}-x_{2} }{t_{3}-t_{2} }=\frac{(25-2(\frac{25}{3}) )m}{5.5s-3.9s} =5.2083 \frac{m}{s}$

c) $a=\frac{v_{2}-v_{1} }{t_{2}-t_{1} } =\frac{5.2083m/s-3.2051m/s}{5.5s-3.9s} =1.252 \frac{m}{s^{2} }$

Explanation:

<em><u>The knowable variables are </u></em>

$d_{t}=25m$

$t_{1}=1.3 s$

$t_{2}=3.9 s$

$t_{3}=5.5 s$

Since the three traffic signs are <u>equally spaced</u>, the <u>distance between each sign is $\frac{25}{3} m$ </u>

a) $v_{1}=\frac{x_{2}-x_{1} }{t_{2}-t_{1} }=\frac{(2(\frac{25}{3})-\frac{25}{3} )m}{3.9s-1.3s} =3.2051 \frac{m}{s}$

b) $v_{2}=\frac{x_{3}-x_{2} }{t_{3}-t_{2} }=\frac{(25-2(\frac{25}{3}) )m}{5.5s-3.9s} =5.2083 \frac{m}{s}$

Since we know the velocity in two points and the time the car takes to pass the traffic signs

c) $a=\frac{v_{2}-v_{1} }{t_{2}-t_{1} } =\frac{5.2083m/s-3.2051m/s}{5.5s-3.9s} =1.252 \frac{m}{s^{2} }$

Estimate the change in the equilibrium melting point of copper caused by a change in pressure of 10 kbar. The molar volume of co

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

The change in the equilibrium melting point is 4.162 K.

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure = 10 kbar

Molar volume of copper $V=8.0\times10^{-6}\ m^3$

Volume of liquid $V=7.6\times10^{-6}\ m^3$

Latent heat of fusion $L= 13.05 kJ$

Melting point =1085°C

We need to calculate the change temperature

Using Clapeyron equation

$\dfrac{\Delta P}{\Delta T}=\dfrac{\Delta H}{T\Delta V}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1000\times10^{5}}{\Delta T}=\dfrac{13050}{(1085+273)\times(8.0-7.6)\times10^{-6}}$

$\Delta T=\dfrac{1000\times10^{-5}\times(1085+273)\times(8.0-7.6)\times10^{-6}}{13050}$

$\Delta T=4.162\ K$

Hence, The change in the equilibrium melting point is 4.162 K.

An object that weighs 2.450 N is attached to an ideal massless spring and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations with a period o

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 24.1 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the object, W = 2.45 N

Time period of oscillation of simple harmonic motion, T = 0.64 s

To find,

Spring constant of the spring.

Solution,

In case of simple harmonic motion, the time period of oscillation is given by :

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}$

m is the mass of object

$m=\dfrac{W}{g}$

$m=\dfrac{2.45}{9.8}$

m = 0.25 kg

$k=\dfrac{4\pi^2m}{T^2}$

$k=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 0.25}{(0.64)^2}$

k = 24.09 N/m

or

k = 24.11 N/m

So, the spring constant of the spring is 24.1 N/m.

1. A 9.4×1021 kg moon orbits a distant planet in a circular orbit of radius 1.5×108 m. It experiences a 1.1×1019 N gravitational

sattari [20]

Answer:

26 days

Explanation:

m = 9.4×1021 kg

r= 1.5×108 m

F = 1.1×10^ 19 N

We know Fc = $\frac{m v^{2} }{r}$

==> 1.1 × $10^{19}$ = (9.4 × $10^{21}$ × $v^{2}$ ) ÷ 1.5 × $10^{8}$

==> 1.1 × $10^{19}$ = $v^{2}$ × 6.26× $10^{13}$

==> $v^{2}$ = 1.1 × $10^{19}$ ÷ 6.26× $10^{13}$

==> $v^{2}$ = 0.17571885 × $10^{6}$

==> v= 0.419188323 × $10^{3}$ m/sec

==> v= 419.188322834 m/s

Putting value of r and v from above in ;

T= 2πr ÷ v

==> T= 2×3.14×1.5× $10^{8}$ ÷ 0.419188323 × $10^{3}$

==> T = 22.472× 100000 = 2247200 sec

but

86400 sec = 1 day

==> 2247200 sec= 2247200 ÷ 86400 = 26 days
