A car moving with constant acceleration covered the distance between two points 60.0mapart in6.00s. Its speed as it passed the second point was 15.0m/s. (a) What was the speed at the first point? (b) What was the magnitude of the acceleration? (c) At what prior distance from the first point was the car at rest? (d) Graph x versus t and vversus t for the car, from rest (t=0).

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The speed of the car at the first point is5m/s
  2. The magnitude of the acceleration is1.67m/s2
  3. The prior distance from the first point where the car was at rest is-7.5m
  4. The graph of xvstandvvst

Step by step solution

01

Given information

x=60mvf=15m/st=6.0s

02

To understand the concept

This problem deals with the kinematic equation of motion. Kinematics is the studies of how a system of bodies moves without taking into account the forces or potential fields that influence the motion. The equations which are used in the study are known as kinematic equations of motion.

Formula:

The final velocity in the kinematic equation is expressed as,

vf=v0+at.......(i)vf2=v02+2ax.......(ii)

03

(a): Calculations for speed of the car at first point

According to equation (i), the velocity is

15=v0+a6a=15-v06

Substituting a in equation (ii),

vf2=v02+2ax225=v02+215-v0660225=v02+300-20v0v02-20v0+75=0v0=5m/s

We get the initial velocity of the car as 5m/s.

04

(b): Calculations for acceleration

From part (a), the acceleration is,a=15-v06

a=15-56=1.67m/s2

So, the acceleration of car would be1.67m/s2.

05

(c): Calculation of the distance until it comes to rest

To find the distance from the first point where the car was at rest we have,

vf=0m/sv0=5m/sa=1.67m/s2

Using equation (ii)

vf2=v02+2ax(0)2=(5)2+21.67xx=-7.5m.

So, the distance traveled before coming to rest would be 7.5m.According to kinematic equations,

t=vf-v0at=0--51.67t=-3sec.

On a dry road, a car with good tires may be able to brake with a constant deceleration of 4.29m/s2 . (a)How long does such a car, initially travelling at 24.6 m/s, take to stop? (b)How far does it travel in this time? (c)Graph x vs t and v vs t for the deceleration.

Figure 2-42 shows part of a street where traffic flow is to be controlled to allow a platoon of cars to move smoothly along the street. Suppose that the platoon leaders have justreached intersection 2, where the green appeared when they were distance dfrom the intersection. They continue to travel at a certain speed vp(the speed limit) to reach intersection 3, where the green appears when they are distance dfrom it. The intersections are separated by distancesD23andD12. (a) What should be the time delay of the onset of green at intersection 3 relative to that at intersection 2 to keep the platoon moving smoothly?

Suppose, instead, that the platoon had been stopped by a red light at intersection 1. When the green comes on there, the leaders require a certain time trto respond to the change and an additional time to accelerate at some rate ato the cruising speedVp. (b) If the green at intersection 2 is to appear when the leaders are distance d from that intersection, how long after the light at intersection 1

turns green should the light at intersection 2 turn green?

At a construction site, a pipe wrench stuck the ground with a speed of 24 m/s(a)From what height was it inadvertently dropped? (b)How long was it falling? (c)Sketch graphs of y,v and a versus t for the wrench.

The 1992 world speed record for a bicycle (human powered vehicle) was set by Chris Huber. His time through the measured 200 m stretch was a sizzling 6.509 sec , at which he commented 鈥淐ogito ergo zoom!鈥 (I think, therefore I go fast). In 2001, Sam Whittingham beat Huber鈥檚 record by 19.0 km/h. What was Whittingham鈥檚 time through the 200 m?

(f)What is its average velocity for the time interval from t=2sto t=4s? (g)Graph x vs t for0t4secand indicate how the answer for f can be found on the graph.
