one another, and the boy moves away with a velocity of +3 m/s. What is the final velocity of the girl?
–1.9 m/s
+1.9 m/s
–4.8 m/s
+4.8 m/s

Use conservation of momentum.

Initial momentum = 0

Final momentum = momentum of the girl + momentum of the boy = inifial momentum = 0.

Momentum of the girl = - momentum of the boy

mass of the girl * velocity of the girl = - mass of the boy * velocity of the boy

50 kg * velocity of the girl = - 80 kg * 3m/s

=> velocity of the girls = -80 kg * 3m/s / 50 kg = - 4.8 m/s

Answer: - 4.8 m/s

An object’s velocity is measured to be vx(t) = α - βt2, where α = 4.00 m/s and β = 2.00 m/s3. At t = 0 the object is at x = 0. (
Leona [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

v_x(t)=\alpha -\beta t^2

\alpha =4\ m/s

\beta =2\ m/s^3

v_x(t)=4-2t^2

v=\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}

\int dx=\int \left ( 4-2t^2\right )dt

x=4t-\frac{2}{3}t^3

acceleration of object

a=\frac{\mathrm{d} v}{\mathrm{d} t}

a=-4t

(b)For maximum positive displacement velocity must be zero at that instant

i.e.v=0

4-2t^2=0

t=\pm \sqrt{2}

substitute the value of t

x=4\times \sqrt{2}-\frac{2}{3}\times 2\sqrt{2}

x=3.77\ m

Hoosier Manufacturing operates a production shop that is designed to have the lowest unit production cost at an output rate of 1
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

90.77%

its capacity utilization rate for the month is 90.77%

Explanation:

The capacity utilisation rate can be expressed mathematically as;

Capacity utilisation rate = capacity used/Best operating level × 100%

Given;

Total Number of production time = 205hours

Production output/capacity used = 21400 units

Best operation rate = 115units/hour

Best operation output for the month of July( at best operation level )

=115units/hour × 205 hours = 23575 units

Capacity utilisation rate = 21400/23575 × 100%

= 90.77%

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

- 1 m/s, 20 m

Explanation:

u = 9 m/s, a = - 2 m/s^2, t = 5 sec

Let s be the displacement and v be the velocity after 5 seconds

Use first equation of motion.

v = u + a t

v = 9 - 2 x 5 = 9 - 10 = - 1 m/s

Use second equation of motion

s = u t + 1/2 a t^2

s = 9 x 5 - 1/2 x 2 x 5 x 5

s = 45 - 25 = 20 m
