An object moves in along the x-axis with an acceleration given by: a = 5t (m/s2). The position of the object at t=0.0 is 6 m, and its velocity at t=0.0 s is 4 m/s. Calculate the position at t=5 s.
Answer:
The position of the object at [tex]t = 5\,s[/tex] is 130.167 meters.
Explanation:
Let [tex]a(t) = 5\cdot t\,\left[\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right][/tex] the acceleration experimented by the object along the x-axis. We obtain the equation for the position of the object by integrating in acceleration formula twice:
Velocity
[tex]v(t) = \int {a(t)} \, dt[/tex] (1)
[tex]v(t) = 5\int {t} \, dt[/tex]
[tex]v(t) = \frac{5}{2}\cdot t^{2}+v_{o}[/tex] (2)
Where [tex]v_{o}[/tex] is the initial velocity of the object, measured in meters per second.
Position
[tex]s(t) = \int {v(t)} \, dt[/tex] (3)
[tex]s(t) = \frac{5}{2}\int {t^{2}} \, dt+v_{o}\int \, dt[/tex]
[tex]s(t) = \frac{5}{6}\cdot t^{3}+v_{o}\cdot t + s_{o}[/tex] (4)
Where [tex]s_{o}[/tex] is the initial position of the object, measured in meters per second.
If we know that [tex]s_{o} = 6\,m[/tex], [tex]v_{o} = 4\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]t = 5\,s[/tex], then the position of the object is:
[tex]s(5) = \frac{5}{6}\cdot (5)^{3}+\left(4\right)\cdot (5)+6[/tex]
[tex]s(5) = 130.167\,m[/tex]
The position of the object at [tex]t = 5\,s[/tex] is 130.167 meters.

A man walks south at a speed of 2.00 m/s for 60.0 minutes. He then turns around and walks north a distance 3000 m in 25.0 minutes. What is the average velocity of the man during his entire motion?
Answer:
v = 0.823 m/s
Explanation:
A man walks south at a speed of 2.00 m/s for 60.0 minutes.
The distance covered in South = 60 × 60 × 2 = 7200 m
He then turns around and walks north a distance 3000 m in 25.0 minutes.
As they moved in opposite direction, net displacement will be : 7200 - 3000 = 4200 m
Average velocity of the man = net displacement/time
[tex]v=\dfrac{4200\ m}{(60+25)\times 60}\\\\=0.823\ m/s[/tex]
So, the average velocity of the man is 0.823 m/s.

Explanation:
An ant crawled from a hole to the food. For the first 6 minutes,it travelled at an average speed of 15m/min. For The next 9 minutes it travelles at an average speed of 10m/min what was the average speed of the whole journey?
Answer:
v = 12 m/min
Explanation:
By definition, the average velocity is the rate of change of the position with respect to time, as follows:[tex]v_{avg} =\frac{x_{f} -x_{o} }{t_{f}-t_{o} } (1)[/tex]
Choosing x₀ = 0 and t₀ =0, (1) reduces to :[tex]v_{avg} = \frac{x_{f} }{t_{f} } (2)[/tex]
From the givens, we have:tif = 6 min + 9 min = 15 min
In order to get xf, we know that during the first part, vavg = 15 m/min, so solving for xf:[tex]x_{f1} = v_{avg1}* t_{1} = 15 m/min * 6 min = 90 m (3)[/tex]
For the following 9 min, we know that the average speed was 10m/min, so the distance traveled during the second part of the trip was simply:[tex]x_{f2} = v_{avg2} *t_{2} = 10m/min * 9 min = 90 m (4)[/tex]
Adding (3) and (4):[tex]x_{f} = 90 m + 90 m = 180 m (5)[/tex]
Replacing xf and tif in (2), we finally get:[tex]v_{avg} =\frac{x_{f} }{t_{f}} =\frac{180m}{15 min} = 12 m/min (6)[/tex]

Explanation:
A cyclist is riding his bike up a mountain trail. When he starts up the trail, he is going 8 m/s. As the trail gets steeper, he slows to 3 m/s in 1 minute. What is the cyclist’s acceleration?
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf a\approx -0.08 \ m/s^2}}[/tex]
Explanation:
Acceleration can be found by dividing the change in velocity by the time.
[tex]a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}[/tex]
The final velocity is 3 meters per second. The initial velocity is 8 meters per second.
We need to convert the time to seconds.
t= 1 minute 60 seconds = 1 minute t=60 secondsSo, we know that:
[tex]v_f=3 \ m/s \\v_i= 8 \ m/s\\t= 60 \ s[/tex]
Substitute the values into the formula.
[tex]a=\frac{3 \ m/s - 8 \ m/s}{60 \ s}[/tex]
Solve the numerator.
3 m/s - 8 m/s = -5 m/s[tex]a=\frac{-5 \ m/s}{60 \ s}[/tex]
Divide.
[tex]a=-0.0833333333 \ m/s/s[/tex]
Let's round to the nearest hundredth.
The 3 in the thousandth place tells us to leave the 8 in the hundredth place.
[tex]a\approx -0.08 \ m/s^2[/tex]
The cyclist's acceleration is about [tex]\boxed {-0.08 m/s^2}[/tex]
A rollercoaster moves from the bottom of a hill and approaches the top of the hill. If friction between the wheels and the track is ignored, which statement describes the components of the total energy?
*answer choices pic attached*
{If anyone has the answers to the Energy Flows Quick Check or others please let me know}.
Answer:
The kinetic energy remains same and gravitational potential energy increases.
Explanation:
KINETIC ENERGY:
As, we know that the kinetic energy depends upon the speed of the object. Hence, the kinetic energy is given as:
K.E = (1/2)mv²
where,
m = mass
v = speed
K.E = Kinetic Energy
Since, the friction is ignored, therefore the speed of roller coaster will remain same.
Therefore, its Kinetic Energy will also remain same.
POTENTIAL ENERGY:
The potetial energy od a body depends upon its height, as follows:
P.E = mgh
where,
P.E = potential Energy
m = mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height
As, the roller coaster moves up hill its height increases.
Therefore, its potential energy will also increase.
hence, the correct option is:
The kinetic energy remains same and gravitational potential energy increases.
The current theory of the structure of the Earth, called plate tectonics, tells us that the continents are in constant motion.
Assume that the North American continent can be represented by a slab of rock 4450 km on a side and 31 km deep and that the rock has an average mass density of 2620 kg/m3.
The continent is moving at the rate of about 1 cm/year.

A jogger (of mass 77 kg) has the same kinetic energy as that of the continent.
What would his speed be? Answer in units of m/s.
Answer:
1) The mass of the continent is approximately [tex]1.608\times 10^{21}[/tex] kilograms.
2) The kinetic energy of the continent is approximately [tex]8.04\times 10^{16}[/tex] joules.
3) The speed of the 77 kg-jogger would be approximately [tex]45.698\times 10^{6}[/tex] meters per second.
Explanation:
1) The mass of the North American continent can be estimated by using the following formula under the assumption that rock has an uniform density:
[tex]m = \rho \cdot L^{2}\cdot h[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the continent, measured in kilograms.
[tex]\rho[/tex] - Average density of the rock, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.
[tex]L[/tex] - Side of the continent, measured in meters.
[tex]h[/tex] - Depth of the continent, measured in meters.
If we know that [tex]\rho = 2620\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}[/tex], [tex]L = 4.450\times 10^{6}\,m[/tex] and [tex]h = 31\times 10^{3}\,m[/tex], then the mass of the continent is:
[tex]m = \left(2620\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot (4.450\times 10^{6}\,m)^{2}\cdot (31\times 10^{3}\,m)[/tex]
[tex]m = 1.608\times 10^{21}\,kg[/tex]
The mass of the continent is approximately [tex]1.608\times 10^{21}[/tex] kilograms.
2) By assuming that continent can be represented as a particle, we define its kinetic energy as:
[tex]K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2}[/tex] (2)
Where:
[tex]K[/tex] - Translational kinetic energy, measured in joules.
[tex]v[/tex] - Motion rate of the continent, measured in meters per second.
If we know that [tex]m = 1.608\times 10^{21}\,kg[/tex] and [tex]v = 1\times 10^{-2}\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], then the kinetic energy of the continent is:
[tex]K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (1.608\times 10^{21}\,kg)\cdot \left(1\times 10^{-2}\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]K = 8.04\times 10^{16}\,J[/tex]
The kinetic energy of the continent is approximately [tex]8.04\times 10^{16}[/tex] joules.
3) The speed of the jogger is derived from the definition of translational kinetic energy:
[tex]v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot K}{m} }[/tex]
If we know that [tex]K = 8.04\times 10^{16}\,J[/tex] and [tex]m = 77\,kg[/tex], then the expected speed of the jogger is:
[tex]v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (8.04\times 10^{16}\,J)}{77\,kg} }[/tex]
[tex]v\approx 45.698\times 10^{6}\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
The speed of the 77 kg-jogger would be approximately [tex]45.698\times 10^{6}[/tex] meters per second.

You are designing a flywheel. It is to start from rest and then rotate with a constant angular acceleration of 0.200 rev/s^2. The design specifications call for it to have a rotational kinetic energy of 330 J after it has turned through 30.0 revolutions.
What should be the moment of inertia of the flywheel about its rotation axis?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
Answer: 1.14 kg*m/s
Explanation:
The first person explained everything right, they just forgot to convert the angular acceleration to rads/sec^2 from revs/sec^2. Once that is converted, your answer should come out right.
Another small thing, the answer there has an extra unnecessary step. It tells you to find the square root of w^2 to find w but that is unnecessary since the final equation asked for w^2. Hope this helps! :)
The moment of inertia I of the flywheel about its rotation axis is
[tex]1.39Kgm^2[/tex]Given
Angular displacement,
[tex]\theta = 30rev \\\\\theta = (30) * 2\pi rad \\\\\theta = 188.495rad[/tex]
Therefore, Final angular velocity (w) will be:
[tex]w^2 = 2\alpha\theta\\\\w^2 = 2 * (0.200 * 2\pi) * (188.49)\\\\w^2 = 473.73\\\\w = 21.76 rad/s[/tex]
Therefore,
moment of inertia
[tex]I = 2 * K / w^2[/tex]
[tex]I = 2 * 330 / 473.73[/tex]
[tex]I = 1.39kgm^2[/tex]

If the total mechanical energy of the block spring system is 512 J, what is the amplitude for this oscillation?
Answer:
A = 2.26 m
Explanation:
Given that,
The total mechanical energy of the block spring system is 512 J
Let the spring constant, k = 200 N/m
We need to find the amplitude for this oscillation. The mechanical energy of the spring mass system is given by :
[tex]E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2[/tex]
k is spring constant
[tex]A=\sqrt{\dfrac{2E}{k}} \\\\A=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 512}{200}} \\A=2.26\ m[/tex]
So, the amplitude of the oscillation is 2.26 m
An oscilloscope is set on a TIME/DIV setting of 50 ms. There are 10 divisions on the time scale. A sinewave on the oscilloscope display has exactly three full cycles of the sine wave that fit on the 10 divisions. What is the frequency of the wave?
Answer:
f= 6 Hz
Explanation:
Since the TIME/DIV setting is set to 50 ms, and there 10 divisions on the time scale, that means that full scale display is 500 msec.If a sinewave has exactly three full cycles of the sine wave that fit on the 10 div, this means that one cycle is just one-third of the 10 div value, as follows:[tex]T = \frac{500 msec}{3} = 166.7 msec (1)[/tex]
Since the frequency of a wave is just the number of cycles per unit time, can be written as follows:F = 1/T = 1/(166.7 msec) = 6 HzAn explanation of the relationships among particular phenomena.

waves disturb ____, but do not transmit it.
a. energy
b. matter
c. sound
d. none of the above
Answer:
b. matter
Explanation:
Waves disturb matter but do not transmit it.
Waves are disturbances that transmit energy from one point to another. Although they cause disturbances, they do not transfer the matters in the medium.
Energy is propagated by a wave. When for example, sound waves are produced, the disturbance is propagated via particle - particle interaction But after the wave train moves, the particles remain.A projectile is shot straight up from the earth's surface at a speed of 11,000 km/hr. How high does it go? ________km?
Taken from "Physics for Scientists and Engineers by Randall D. Knight 2nd Edition. Chapter 13 #34. There is an answer in the database already, but I do not understand it.
Answer:
476.35 km
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Initial velocity (u) = 11000 km/hr
Final velocity (v) = 0 km/hr (at maximum height)
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Maximum height (h) = ?
Next, we shall convert 9.8 m/s² to km/hr². This is illustrated below:
1 m/s² = 12960 km/hr²
Therefore,
9.8 m/s² = 9.8 m/s² × 12960 km/hr² / 1 m/s²
9.8 m/s² = 127008 km/hr²
Thus, 9.8 m/s² is equivalent to 127008 km/h²
Finally, we shall determine the maximum height reached by the projectile.
This is illustrated below:
Initial velocity (u) = 11000 km/hr
Final velocity (v) = 0 km/hr (at maximum height)
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 127008 km/hr²
Maximum height (h) = ?
v² = u² – 2gh (since the projectile is going against gravity)
0² = 11000² – (2 × 127008 × h)
0 = 121×10⁶ – 254016h
Collect like terms
0 – 121×10⁶ = – 254016h
– 121×10⁶ = – 254016h
Divide both side by – 254016
h = – 121×10⁶ / – 254016
h = 476.35 km
Thus, the maximum height reached by the projectile is 476.35 km
Sitting in a parked bu s, you suddenly look up at a bus moving alongside and it appears that you are moving. Why is this? How about with both buses moving in opposite directions?
Answer:
Explained below
Explanation:
When one sits in a parked bus, and another bus is moving alongside, it means the other bus is moving relative to you. However, this makes the brain register in such a way that it's feels the bus you are in is the one moving.
In the second case where both buses are moving in opposite directions, the brain will register it in such a way that it seems the bus in which you are at is moving at a far higher speed than the speed in which it is actually moving.
This is because the relative velocity of the other vehicle is higher and it is therefore what makes your brain think your bus is moving at a faster speed.

A baseball player exerts a force of 100 N on a ball for a distance of 0.5 mas he throws it. If the ball has a mass of 0.15 kg, what is its velocity as it leaves his hand?
Answer:
25.82 m/s
Explanation:
We are given;
Force exerted by baseball player; F = 100 N
Distance covered by ball; d = 0.5 m
Mass of ball; m = 0.15 kg
Now, to get the velocity at which the ball leaves his hand, we will equate the work done to the kinetic energy.
We should note that work done is a measure of the energy exerted by the baseball player.
Thus;
F × d = ½mv²
100 × 0.5 = ½ × 0.15 × v²
v² = (2 × 100 × 0.5)/0.15
v² = 666.67
v = √666.67
v = 25.82 m/s
This question involves the concepts of the law of conservation of energy and kinetic energy.
The baseball leaves the hand with a velocity of "25.82 m/s".
From the law of conservation of energy the work done on the ball must be equal to the kinetic energy of the ball:
[tex]W=K.E\\\\Fd=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2Fd}{m}}\\\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2(100\ N)(0.5\ m)}{0.15\ kg}}[/tex]
where,
F = force applied = 100 N
d = displacement of ball = 0.5 m
m = mass of ball = 0.15 kg
v = 25.82 m/s

The sun is 150,000,000 km from earth; its diameter is 1,400,000 km. A student uses a 4.6-cm-diameter lens with f = 10 cm to cast an image of the sun on a piece of paper. What is the diameter of the image on the paper?
Answer:
Explanation:
the image distance can be calculated using below formula of lens
1/v=1/- 1/u
Where
u= Object distance = 15×10^7km
Diameter = 1400000 km
Diameter of lens = 4.6 cm
f= Focal length ( 10 cm)= 1×10^-4
We can substitute to the above formula we have
1/15×10^7km+1/1×10^-4
V=0.001km
Therefore, paper stayed on the focus, hence the sharp image
