The position function x(t) of a particle moving along an xaxis isx=4-6t2, with xin metres and tin seconds. (a) At what time does the particle momentarily stop? (b) Where does the particle momentarily stop? At what (c) negative time and (d) positive time does the particle pass through the origin? (e) Graph x vs t for range -5 secto +5 sec. (f) To shift the curve rightward on the graph, should we include the term +20tor -20tin x(t)? (g) Does that inclusion increase or decrease the value of x at which the particle momentarily stops?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) Particle stops at t=0

(b) Position of particle when it stops is 4.0 m.

(c) Negative time when particle passes through origin is t=-0.82 s.

(d) Positive time when particle passes through origin is t=+0.82 s

(e) v=0 At larger values of x.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

x=4-6t2

02

To understand the concept

The problem involves differentiation of the quantity. Here the functional notation can be used for differentiation. To initiate,vandacan be calculated from the given equation by taking its derivative. By plugging the value ofin equation of position to find position at this time.At x(t)=0 solve quadratic equation for t. The graph forx vst can be drawn. Also by adding 20t we can draw shifted graph.

Formula:

vt=dxtdt

03

Find the time when the particle momentarily stops

Find velocity and acceleration from given position by taking derivative of it

vt=dxtdt=-12tat=dvtdt=-12

It is found that at t=0 the velocity is 0.

04

To find where does the particle momentarily stop

x=4-6t2

At t=0 the position of particle isx0=4.0m

05

To find negative and positive time the particle pass through the origin

Solvext=0

0=4.0-6.0t2

By solving this quadratic equation for the negative timet=-0.82s

06

To plot the graph x vs t for range -5 sec to +5 sec and to find what to shift the curve rightward on the graph

Alsothe positive time from above quadratic equationt=+0.82s

Both the graphs (on the left) as well as the shifted graph can be drawn. In both graphs time limits are-3t3

The graph 2 can be drawn by adding 20t inxtexpression.

The slopes of graphs as zero, shift causes v=0at larger values of x.

Question: On average, an eye blink lasts about 100 ms. How far does a MiG - 25鈥淔oxbat鈥 fighter travel during a pilot鈥檚 blink if the plane鈥檚 average velocity is3400 km/hr?

A rock is shot vertically upward from the edge of the top of a tall building. The rock reaches its maximum height above the top of the building 1.60safter being shot. Then, after barely missing the edge of the building as it falls downward, the rock strikes the ground6.00safter it is launched. In SI units: (a) with what upward velocity is the rock shot, (b) what maximum height above the top of the building is reached by the rock, and (c) how tall is the building?

To set a speed record in a measured (straight line) distance d, a race car must be driven in one direction (in timet1) and then in the opposite direction (in timet2). (a) To eliminate the effects of wind and obtain the car鈥檚 speedin a windless situation, should we find the average ofdt1anddt2(method 1) or should we divide d by the average oft1andt2? (b) What is the fractional difference in the two methods when a steady wind blows along the car鈥檚 route and the ratio of wind speedVwto car鈥檚 speedVcis 0.0240.

Two particles move along an x axis. The position of particle 1 is given by x=6t2+3t+2(in meters and seconds); the acceleration of particle 2 is given bya=-8t(in meters per second squared and seconds), and, at t=0, its velocity is20m/s. When the velocities of the particles match, what is their velocity?

The brakes on your car can slow you at a rate of 5.2m/s2. (a)If you are going 137 km/ hand suddenly see a state trooper, what is the minimum time in which you can get your car under the90 km/ hspeed limit? (The answer reveals the futility of braking to keep your high speed from being detected with a radar or laser gun). (b)Graph x vs t and v vs t for such a slowing.
