A particle moving with an initial velocity 2.5 m/s along the positive x direction accelerates uniformly at the rate 0.50 m/s2. (i) find the distance travelled in the first 2 sec. (ii) calculate the time taken to reach the velocity of 7.5 m/s? (iii) calculate the distance travelled in reaching the velocity 7.5 m/s?
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
• In the given question information given about a particle moving with initial speed and uniform acceleration.
• At first we have to find the distance travelled in first 2 sec.
• Second, we have to find the time taken to reach velocity 7.5 m/s.
• At last, we have to find the distance travelled in reaching the velocity of 7.5 m/s.
• According to given question :
Solution:
Given:
➜ A particle moving with an initial velocity 2.5 m/s along the positive x direction accelerates uniformly at the rate 0.50 m/s2.
Find:
(i) find the distance travelled in the first 2 sec.
(ii) calculate the time taken to reach the velocity of 7.5 m/s?
(iii) calculate the distance travelled in reaching the velocity 7.5 m/s?
Given:
➜ 2.5 m/s = initial velocity.
➜ 0.5 m/s² = acceleration.
➜ 2 seconds = Time.
Know terms:
➜ Initial velocity = (u)
➜ final velocity = (v)
➜ Acceleration = (a)
➜ Time = (t)
(1) Answer:
By using third equation of motion:
➜ s = ut + 1/2 at²
➜ s = 2.5 × 2 × 1/2 × 0.50 × 2²
➜ s = 5 + 0.25 × 4
➜ s = 5 + 1
➜ s = 6 cm
(2) Answer:
By using first equation of motion:
➜ v = u + at
➜ 7.5 = 2.5 + 0.5 × t
➜ 7.5 - 2.5 = 0.5t
➜ t = 5/10.5
➜ t = 10 seconds.
(3) Answer:
By suing second equation of motion:
➜ v² = u² + 2as
➜ (7.5)² = (2.5)² + 2 × 0.5 × 5
➜ 56.25 = 6.25 + 5
➜ s = 56.2 - 6.25
➜ s = 50 m
