A motorcyclist who is moving along an x axis directed toward the east has an acceleration given by a=(6.11.2t)m/s2for0t6.0s. Att=0, the velocity and position of the cyclist are2.7m/s and7.3m. (a) What is the maximum speed achieved by the cyclist? (b) What total distance does the cyclist travel betweent=0and6.0s?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The maximum speed achieved by the cyclist is 18 m/s
  2. The total distance traveled by the cyclist between t=0and 6.0 sec is 83 m.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

a=6.11.2tm/s2v=2.7m/sx=7.3m

02

To understand the concept. 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:

The velocity in general is given by,

v=adt

The distance is given by

x=vdt

03

a): Calculations for the maximum speed of the cyclist

The velocity of the cyclist can be computed as

v=adtv=6.1-1.2tv=6.1t-1.2t22+cv=6.1t-0.6t2cAtt=0sec,v=2.7m/sso,2.7=0-0+cc=2.7

So, v=6.1t-0.6t2+2.7

The cyclist will have maximum speed when dvdt=a=0

So, by putting a=0we will get

0=6.1-1.2tt=5.1secv=18m/s

So, the maximum velocity achieved by the cyclist would be18m/s

04

b): Calculations for distance traveled by cyclist

The distance traveled by the cyclist can be calculated as

x=vdtx=6.1t-0.6t2+2.7x=6.1t22-0.633+2.7t+kx=3.05t2-0.2t2+2.7t+kAtt=0sec,x=7.3m7.3=0+kk=7.3

So, the distance traveled by the cyclist between t=0and 6.0sec.is

x=3.05t2-0.2t2+2.7t+7.306=82.8~83m

Hence, the distance traveled by the cyclist would be 83 m
