Question #237771


A record of travel along a straight path is as follows:

1. Start from rest with constant acceleration of 2.40 m/s2 for 16.0 s.

2. Maintain a constant velocity for the next 1.20 min.

3. Apply a constant negative acceleration of −9.29 m/s2 for 4.13 s.

(a) What was the total displacement for the trip?

 



(b) What were the average speeds for legs 1, 2, and 3 of the trip, as well as for the complete trip?leg 1

a)

l1=a1t122=307.2 m,l_1=\frac{a_1t_1^2}2=307.2~m,

v1=a1t1=38.4 ms,v_1=a_1t_1=38.4~\frac ms,

l2=v1t2=2764.8 m,l_2=v_1t_2=2764.8~m,

l3=v1t3a2t322=79.4 m,l_3=v_1t_3-\frac{a_2t_3^2}2=79.4~m,

l=l1+l3+l3=3151.4 m,l=l_1+l_3+l_3=3151.4~m,

b)

vav1=v12=19.2 ms,v_{av1}=\frac{v_1}2=19.2~\frac ms,

vav2=v1=38.4 ms,v_{av2}=v_1=38.4~\frac ms,

v2=v1a2t3=0 ms,v_2=v_1-a_2t_3=0~\frac ms,

vav3=v12=19.2 ms,v_{av3}=\frac {v_1}2=19.2~\frac ms,

vav=lt=34.2 ms.v_{av}=\frac lt=34.2~\frac ms.
