A particle’s acceleration along an x axis is a=5.0t, with t in seconds and a in meters per second squared. Att=2.0s, its velocity is+17m/s. What is its velocity att=4.0s?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The velocity of the particle at t=4.0sis47m/s.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

a=5.0tt=2.0sv=+17m/s

02

To understand the concept and relation between displacement, velocity and acceleration

If we are given with the displacement equation with respect to time and we differentiate the equation with respect to time, resulted equation will be velocity equation. If we differentiate velocity equation with respect to time, resulted equation will be acceleration equation.

If we are given with the acceleration equation with respect to time and we integrate with respect to time, resulted equation will be velocity equation. If we integrate velocity equation with respect to time, resulted equation will be displacement equation.

Formula:

v=∫adt

03

Calculation for the velocity at the given time.         

The velocity of the particle =∫adt

The velocity of the particle =∫5tdt

The velocity of the particle at t=2.0sec=5t22+c

17=5222+c17=10+cC=7

Using this constant of integration, we can find the velocity of the particle at 4.0 sec as,

The velocity of the particle at t=4.0sec=5422+c

The velocity of the particle at t=4.0sec=5422+7

The velocity of the particle at t=4.0sec=47m/s

Hence, the velocity of the particle is47m/s

Hanging over the railing of a bridge, you drop an egg (no initial velocity) as you throw a second egg downward. Which curves in Fig 2-21 give the velocityfor- (a) the dropped egg and (b) the thrown egg? (Curves A and B are parallel, so are C, D and E, so are F and G)

To stop a car, first you require a certain reaction time to begin braking; then the car slows at a constant rate. Suppose that the total distance moved by your car during these two phases is 56.7mwhen its initial speed is80.5km/h, and24.4mwhen its initial speed is48.3km/h. What are (a) your reaction time and (b) the magnitude of the acceleration?

contact. (b) Is the average acceleration up or down?

Figure 2-18 shows four paths along which objects move from a starting point to a final point, all in the same time interval. The paths pass over a grid of equally spaced straight lines.
