The cart travels the track again and now experiences a constant tangential acceleration from point A to point C. The speeds of the cart are 10.6 ft/s at point A and 15.6 ft/s at point C. The cart takes 4.00 s to go from point A to point C, and the cart takes 1.80 s to go from point B to point C. What is the cart's speed at point B

Sagot :

Answer:

a) [tex]a_{avg}=1.25ft/s^2[/tex]

b) [tex]v_b=13.35ft/s[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Speed at point A [tex]v_A=10.6ft/s[/tex]

Speed at point C [tex]v_C=15.6ft/s[/tex]

Time from Point A to C [tex]T_{ac}=4.00s[/tex]

Time from Point B to C [tex]T_{bc}=1.80s[/tex]

Generally the equation for acceleration From A to B is mathematically given by

 [tex]a_{avg}=\frac{v_c-v_a}{\triangle t}[/tex]

 [tex]a_{avg}=\frac{15.6-10.6}{4.0 }[/tex]

 [tex]a_{avg}=1.25ft/s^2[/tex]

Generally the equation for cart speed at B is mathematically given by

 [tex]a_{avg}=\frac{v_c-v_a}{T_{bc}}[/tex]

 [tex]v_b=v_c-a_{avg}*T_{bc}[/tex]

 [tex]v_b=15.6ft/s-(1.25ft/s^2)(1.80)[/tex]

  [tex]v_b=13.35ft/s[/tex]
