- 2. A speed skater increases his speed from 10 m/s to 12.5 m/s over a period of 3 seconds while coming out of a curve of 20 m radius. What are the magnitudes of his tangential, centripetal, and resultant accelerations as he leaves the curve?arrow_forwardQ5. As shown in the image below, two objects, A and B, are connected using the cable and pulley system. (The cable and pulley system is friction-less and weight-less.) If at this moment the velocity of object B is downward 2.0 m/s, determine the velocity of object A at this moment. In this problem, downward motion is considered positive, and in your answer, negative sign must be included if the motion of A is upward. Please pay attention: the numbers may change since they are randomized. Your answer must include 1 place after the decimal point, and proper Sl unit.

- A dog runs at 0.85 m/s of velocity towards a cat which stays at rest. The dog accidently collides with the cat and they move in different directions. The dog moves at 0.22 m/s with 47° after the collision. The mass of the dog is 0.13 kg and the mass of the cat is 0.11 kg. Find the magnitude of velocity of the cat after the collision.arrow_forwardA motorcycle starts from rest at t = 0 and travels along a straight road with a constant acceleration of 7 ft/s2 until it reaches a speed of 60 ft/s. Afterwards it maintains this speed. Also, when t = 0, a car located 8,000 ft down the road is traveling toward the motorcycle at a constant speed of 40 ft/s. A) Determine the time when they pass each other. B) Determine the distance traveled by the motorcycle when they pass each other.arrow_forwardA 1400-kg automobile starts from rest and travels 400 m during a performance test. The motion of the automobile is defined by the relation x= 4000 ln(cosh 0.03t), where x and t are expressed in meters and seconds, respectively. The magnitude of the aerodynamic drag is D = 0.35v2 , where D and v are expressed in newtons and m/s, respectively. Determine the power dissipated by the aerodynamic drag when (a) t= 10 s, (b) t= 15 s.arrow_forward
- Task II Samir tests his new motorcycle by racing with Ahmad. Both start from rest, but Samir leaves the starting line 2.00 s after Ahmad does. Ahmad moves with a constant acceleration of 3.0 m/s2, while Samir maintains an acceleration of 4.0m/s2. Find the time at which Samir overtakes Ahmad, the distance that Samir travels before catching Ahmad, and the velocity of both cars at the instant Samir overtakes Ahmad.arrow_forwardA constant force F acts on block 1 with mass m and block 2 with mass 2m.
