The average time that it takes for the car to travel the first 0.25m is 2.23 s

The average time that it takes for the car to travel the first 0.25 m is given by:

$t=\frac{2.24 s+2.21 s+2.23 s}{3}=2.227 s \sim 2.23 s$

The average time to travel just between 0.25 m and 0.50 m is 0.90 s

First of all, we need to calculate the time the car takes in each trial to travel between 0.25 m and 0.50 m:

$t_1 = 3.16 s - 2.24 s=0.92 s\\t_2 = 3.08 s- 2.21 s=0.87 s\\t_3 =3.15 s- 2.23 s=0.92 s$

Then, the average time can be calculated as

$t=\frac{0.92 s+0.87 s+0.92 s}{3}=0.90 s$

Given the time taken to travel the second 0.25 m section, the velocity would be 0.28 m/s

The velocity of the car while travelling the second 0.25 m section is equal to the distance covered (0.25 m) divided by the average time (0.90 s):

$v=\frac{d}{t}=\frac{0.25 m}{0.90 s}=0.28 m/s$

Answer:

The average time that it takes for the car to travel the first 0.25m is

2.23 s.

The average time to travel just between 0.25 m and 0.50 m is

0.90 s.

Given the time taken to travel the second 0.25 m section, the velocity would be

0.28 m/s.

A student bikes to school by traveling first dN = 1.00 miles north, then dW = 0.600 miles west, and finally dS = 0.200 miles sou

kompoz [17]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Define unit vectors along the x and y axes as respectively $\hat{i} \, and \, \hat{j}.$

Then the three successive displacements, written in component form, are respectively
$\vec{dN} = 1.0 \, \hat{j} \\
\vec{dW} = -0.6 \, \hat{i} \\ \vec{dS} = -0.2 \, \hat{j}$

The total displacement for the first leg of the trip is
$\vec{d} = \vec{dN} + \vec{dW} + \vec{dS} \\ \vec{d}= 1.0\hat{j}-0.6\hat{i}-0.2\hat{j} \\ \vec{d}=-0.6\hat{i}+0.8\hat{j}$

Answer:
$\vec{d} = -0.6\hat{i}+0.8\hat{j}$ or (-0.6, 0.8)

A mass is tied to a string and swung in a horizontal circle with a constant angular speed. show answer No Attempt If this speed

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The tension in the string is quadrupled i.e. increased by a factor of 4.

Explanation:

The tension in the string is the centripetal force. This force is given by

$F = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

m is the mass, v is the velocity and r is the radius.

It follows that $F \propto v^2$ , provided m and r are constant.

When v is doubled, the new force, $F_1$ , is

$F_1 = \dfrac{m(2v)^2}{r} = \dfrac{4mv^2}{r} = 4\dfrac{mv^2}{r} = 4F$

Hence, the tension in the string is quadrupled.

Seema knows the mass of basketball. What other information is needed to find the balls potential energy

Lelu [443]

Answer: The height (position) of the ball and the acceleration due gravity

Explanation:

In this case we are taking about gravitational potential energy, which is the energy a body or object possesses, due to its position in a gravitational field. In this sense, this energy depends on the relative height of an object with respect to some point of reference and associated with the gravitational force.

In the case of the Earth, in which the gravitational field is considered constant, the gravitational potential energy $U$ will be:

$U=mgh$

Where:

$m$ is the mass of the ball

$g=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity (assuming the ball is on the Earth surface)

$h$ is the height (position) of the ball respect to a given point

Note the value of the gravitational potential energy is directly proportional to the height.

Explain how the forces need to change so the aeroplane can land

Fofino [41]

When an airplane is flying straight and level at a constant speed, the lift it produces balances its weight, and the thrust it produces balances its drag. However, this balance of forces changes as the airplane rises and descends, as it speeds up and slows down, and as it turns.
