3. Usain Bolt running a 100-meter race starts at rest, accelerates at constant acceleration with magnitude...
12) A sprinter running a 100 m race starts at rest and accelerates at constant acceleration A for 3.0 seconds and then maintains a constant velocity. In terms of A, what is the position of the runner after 3.0 seconds? What is A if the sprinter finishes the race in 12.0 seconds? 13) What force is needed to accelerate a 30.0 lb block at 2.2 m/s2? 14) What force is needed to stop a 1500 kg car in 40 m...
Usain Bolt can sprint 100 m in 10s. He accelerates uniformly for the first 3 s of the race and then maintains a constant velocity for the final 7s of the race. Find his acceleration during the first 3s of the race. What distance does he travel in the first 3s of the race? What is the velocity when be finishes the race?
- Sign In When running a 100 meter race Isaac reaches his maximum speed when he is 40 meters from the starting line, and 5 seconds have elapsed since the start of the race. Isaac continues at this max speed for the rest of the race and is 80 meters from the starting line 10 seconds after the start of the race. a. What is Isaac's max speed? meters per second Preview b. Suppose Isaac runs for an additional 3...
In a race, a homing pigeon accelerates from rest with constant acceleration for 40s to reach a cruising speed of 22 ms1 Assume that the pigeon flies in a straight line. Give numerical answers to two significant figures. (a) What is the acceleration of the pigeon? (b) Over what distance does the pigeon accelerate? (c) Draw a graph of the velocity v (in metres per second) of the pigeon 12 121 against the time t (in seconds), from the time...
A train starts from rest at a station and accelerates at a rate of 1.5 m/sec2 for 16 seconds. It runs at a constant speed for 80 seconds and slow down at a rate of 2.5 m/sec2 until it stops at next station. Find the total distance covered by train.
A runner of mass 53.9 kg starts from rest and accelerates with a constant acceleration of 1.36 m/s^2 until she reaches a velocity of 5.83 m/s. She then continues running at this constant velocity. How long does the runner take to travel 153 m? ttotal = [ ]S
3. A wheel 1 meter in radius accelerates uniformly at 2 /s2 from rest. Determine the angular acceleration and the angular speed of the wheel, 2 seconds later. Find the normal and total acceleration of the wheel.
In a quarter-mile drag race, two cars start simultaneously from rest, and each accelerates at a constant rate until it either reaches its maximum speed or crosses the finish line. Car A has an acceleration of 11.6 m/s2 and a maximum speed of 108 m/s. Car B has an acceleration of 11.7 m/s2 and a maximum speed of 91.0 m/s. Which car wins the race, and by how many seconds?
A subway train starts from rest at a station and accelerates at a rate of 1.95 m/s2 for 15.0 s. It runs at constant speed for 74.0 s and slows down at a rate of 3.20 m/s2 until it stops at the next station. Find the total distance covered. 2.51 km 2.52 km 2.53 km 2.56 km
A tortoise and hare start from rest and have a race. As the race begins, both accelerate forward. The hare accelerates uniformly at a rate of 1 m/s for 4.8 seconds. It then continues at a constant speed for 12.4 seconds, before getting tired and slowing down with constant acceleration coming to rest 77 meters from where it started. The tortoise accelerates uniformly for the entire distance, finally catching the hare just as the hare comes to a stop 4)...
