- After a ball rolls off the edge of a horizontal table at time t = 0, its velocity as a function of time is given by v=1.2i9.8tj where v is in meters per second and t is in seconds. The balls displacement away from the edge of the table, during the time interval of 0.380 s for which the ball is in flight, is given by r=00.3803vdt To perform the integral, you can use the calculus theorem [A+Bf(x)]dx=Adx+Bf(x)dx You can think of the units and unit vectors as constants, represented by A and B. Perform the integration to calculate the displacement of the ball from the edge of the table at 0.380 s.arrow_forward(a) A car speedometer has a 5% uncertainty. What is the range of possible speeds when it reads 90 km/h? (b) Convert this range to miles per how. Note 1 km = 0.6214 mi.arrow_forwardAcceleration a has the dimensions of length per time squared, speed v has the dimensions of length per time, and radius r has the dimension of length. Which of the following expressions may be correct? Explain your answer in each case. a. a = vr b. a = v/r c. a = v2/r d. a = v/r2arrow_forward
- (a) If AF=BF , can we conclude A=B ? (b) If AF=BF , can we conclude A=B ? (c) If FA=BF , can we conclude A=B ? Why or why not?arrow_forwardCalculate the result for each of the following cases using the correct number of significant figures. a. 3.07670 10.988 b. 1.0093 105 9.98 104 c. 5.44231064.008103arrow_forward(a) A car speedometer has a 5.0% uncertainty. What is the range of possible speeds when it reads 90 km/h? (b) Convert this range to miles per hour. (1Km=0.6214)arrow_forward
- A car is traveling at a speed of 33 m/s. (a) What is its speed in kilometers per hour? (b) Is it exceeding the 90 km/h speed limit?arrow_forwardA pirate has buried his treasure on an island with five trees located at the points (30.0 m, 20.0 m), (60.0 m, 80.0 m). (10.0 m, 10.0 m), (40.0 m, 30.0 m), and (70.0 m, 60.0 m), all measured relative to some origin, as shown in Figure P3.46. His ships log instructs you to start at tree A and move toward tree B, but to cover only one-half the distance between A and B. Then move toward tree C, covering one-third the distance between your current location and C. Next move toward tree D, covering one-fourth the distance between where you are and D. Finally move toward tree E, covering one-fifth the distance between you and E, stop, and dig. (a) Assume you have correctly determined the order in which the pirate labeled the trees as A, B, C, D, and E as shown in the figure. What are the coordinates of the point where his treasure is buried? (b) What If? What if you do not really know the way the pirate labeled the trees? What would happen to the answer if you rearranged the order of the trees, for instance, to B (30 m, 20 m), A (60 m, 80 m), E (10 m, 10 m), C (40 m, 30 m), and D (70 m, 60 m)? State reasoning to show that the answer does not depend on the order in which the trees are labeled.

- One of the main speed tests in athletics is the 400 meters dash. At the 1999 Seville World Championship, athlete Michael Johnson won that event, with 43.18 seconds. This time, second, written in scientific notation is: a. 0.4318 x 102 b. 4.318 x 101 c. 431.8 x 10-1 d. 43.18 x 100 e. 4,318 x 10-2arrow_forwardA boy walks uniformly along the sides of a rectangular park with dimensions 400m x 300m, starting from one corner to the other corner diagonally opposite. Which of the following statements is false?A. His displacement is 700 m.B. His displacement 500 m.C. He has travelled a distance of 700 m.D. His velocity is not uniform throughout the walk.arrow_forwardat noon, ship A is 150km west of ship B. Ship A is sailing east at 35km/h and ship B is sailing north at 25km/h.
