Concept explainers
Parts (a), (b), and (c) of Figure 2.10 represent three graphs of the velocities of different objects moving in straight-line paths as functions of time. The possible accelerations of each object as functions of time are shown in parts (d), (c), and (f). Match each velocity vs. time graph with the acceleration vs. time graph that best describes the motion.
Figure 2.10 (Quick Quiz 2.3) Match each velocity vs. time graph to its corresponding acceleration vs. time graph.

- I need the answer quicklyarrow_forwardShown is a motion diagram of a car traveling down a street. The camera took one frame every second. A distance scale is provided.a. Use the scale to determine the x-value of the car at each dot. Place your data in a table, similar to Table 2.1, showing each position and the instant of time at which it occurred.b. Make a graph of x versus t, using the data in your table. Because you have data only at certain instants of time, your graph should consist of dots that are not connected together.arrow_forwardA motorcycle begins at rest at t0 = 0 seconds. The motorcycle starts moving, and eventually covers a distance d = 840 m, in a time tf = 189 s. In a coordinate system with north being the positive x-direction, the motorcycle's motion is in the northern direction (see figure). 1. What was the motorcycle's average velocity in in the northern direction vavg,N, in this period in meters per second? 2. If the motorcycle's final velocity at tf was 12 m/s, what was the motorcycle's average acceleration in the northern direction, aavg,N, during this period in m/s2?arrow_forward
- Please solve the 2 problems. 1. A ball rolling at a rate of 2km/hr was brought to stop in 10 seconds. Find its acceleration. Express youf answer in m/s². 2. If a person can run a distance of 20 km in three hours, what is the person's velocity. Express your answer in m/s.arrow_forwardA bicycle's velocity in the x direction, as a function of time is given by: vx(t) = alpha beta(t2). Alpha and beta are constants. 1.) What is the acceleration as a function of time? 2.) What is the position as a function of time? Assume the initial position at t=0 is y. 3. If alpha = 300m/s and beta = 0.100m/s3 and y = 2.00m, what are the positions, velocities, and accelerations at the locations below? t(s) x(m) v(m/s) a(m/s2 1 2 5 10arrow_forwardsolve in a detailed form.

An elevator in a high-rise building goes up and down at the same speed. Starting at the ground floor, Rafael and Monica ride up five floors, a vertical rise of 20 m. The elevator stops for 10 s as Monica gets off. Rafael then goes back down two floors. Rafael's entire trip takes 24 s. Take the origin to be at the ground floor. a. Sketch the position vs time graph b. Sketch the velocity vs time graph 8. This is the velocity-versus-time graph for an object moving v, (m/s) along the x-axis. a.
