| 1 | \(v_x = v_i + at_1\) | First, use the equation of motion to express final velocity \(v_x\) at \(t_1\). Since the sled starts from rest, \(v_i = 0\), so \(v_x = at_1\). |
| 2 | \(v_x = 13.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 \times t_1\) | Substitute the given acceleration \(a = 13.0 \, \text{m/s}^2\). |
| 3 | \(d_1 = \frac{1}{2} a t_1^2\) | Use the equation for displacement under constant acceleration to find \(d_1\), the distance covered during the acceleration phase. |
| 4 | \(d_1 = \frac{1}{2} \times 13.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 \times t_1^2\) | Substitute the value of \(a\). |
| 5 | \(d_2 = v_x(t_2 – t_1)\) | Use the equation for displacement under constant velocity for the distance traveled from \(t_1\) to \(t_2\). |
| 6 | \(d_2 = \left(13.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 \times t_1\right)\left(90.0\, \text{s} – t_1\right)\) | Substitute \(v_x\) and the time intervals into the equation for the second part of the journey. |
| 7 | \(d_1 + d_2 = 5300 \, \text{m}\) | Use the total distance formula, combining both displacements to equal the total given distance. |
| 8 | \(\frac{1}{2} \times 13.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 \times t_1^2 + (13.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 \times t_1)(90.0 \, \text{s} – t_1) = 5300 \, \text{m}\) | Combine the equations for \(d_1\) and \(d_2\). |
| 9 | \(6.5 t_1^2 + 1170 t_1 – 13 t_1^2 = 5300\) | Simplify the equation by combining like terms. |
| 10 | \(-6.5 t_1^2 + 1170 t_1 – 5300 = 0\) | Combine like terms and solve the quadratic equation via the quadratic formula or graphing. |
| 11 | \(t_1 = 4.65 \, \text{s}\) | Final answer. |
| Step | Derivation/Formula | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | \(t_2 + t_1 = 90.0 \, \text{s}\) | The total time of travel is the time of the \(t_1\) and \(t_2\) added together. |
| 2 | \(t_2 = 90.0 \, \text{s} – t_1 \, \text{s}\) | Rearrange and solve for \(t_2\). |
| 3 | \(t_2 = 90.0 \, \text{s} – 4.58 \, \text{s}\) | Substitute the calculated value of \(t_1 \) found in part a. |
| 4 | \(t_2 = 85.35 \, \text{s}\) | Final \(t_2\) value. |
| Step | Derivation/Formula | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | \(v = a t_1\) | Use the equation for final velocity under constant acceleration. This comes from the kinematic formula \(v = v_0 + a t_1\), where \(v_0\) is zero. |
| 2 | \(v = 13.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 \times 4.65 \, \text{s}\) | Substitute the value of \(a\) and \(t_1\) into the equation. |
| 3 | \(v = 60.5 \, \text{m/s}\) | Calculate the velocity. |
– (a) \( \boxed{t_1 = 4.58 \, \text{s}} \)
– (b) \( \boxed{t_2 = 85.42\, \text{s}} \)
– (c) \( \boxed{v = 59.54 \, \text{m/s}} \)
Just ask: "Help me solve this problem."
A car increases its forward velocity uniformly from 40 m/s to 80 m/s while traveling a distance of 200 m. What is its acceleration during this time?
A projectile of mass 0.750 kg is shot straight up with an initial speed of 18.0 m/s.
A car accelerates from rest with an acceleration of \( 3.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) for \( 10 \, \text{s} \). After this, it continues at a constant speed for an unknown amount of time. The driver notices a ramp \( 50 \, \text{m} \) ahead and takes \( 0.6 \, \text{s} \) to react. After reacting, the driver hits the brakes, which slow the car with an acceleration of \( 7.2 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). Unfortunately, the driver does not stop in time and goes off the \( 3 \, \text{m} \) high ramp that is angled at \( 27^\circ \).
The displacement x of an object moving in one dimension is shown above as a function of time t. The velocity of this object must be
A 25 g steel ball is attached to the top of a 24-cm-diameter vertical wheel. Starting from rest, the wheel accelerates at [katex] 470 \, \frac{rad}{s^2}[/katex]. The ball is released after [katex]\frac{3}{4} [/katex] of a revolution. How high does it go above the center of the wheel?

General Metric Conversion Chart
Example of using unit analysis: Convert 5 kilometers to millimeters.
Start with the given measurement: [katex]\text{5 km}[/katex]
Use the conversion factors for kilometers to meters and meters to millimeters: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}}[/katex]
Perform the multiplication: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}} = 5 \times 10^3 \times 10^3 \, \text{mm}[/katex]
Simplify to get the final answer: [katex]\boxed{5 \times 10^6 \, \text{mm}}[/katex]
