(a) (The strange running track) Suppose that a 100 m running track has two straightaways and...
Two runners in a 100 m race start from the same place. Runner A starts as soon as the starting gun is fired and runs at a constant speed of 8.00 m/s. Runner B isn’t really paying attention and starts running 2.0 s later and runs at a constant speed of 9.3 m/s. a. Draw a position vs time graph for each runner. b. Who wins the race? c. At the instant the winner crosses the finish line, how far...

Sean is running a 100 m dash. When the starter's pistol fires, he leaves the starting block and continues speeding up until 6 s into the race, when he reaches his top speed of 11 m/s. He holds this speed for 2 s; then his speed has slowed to 10 m/s by the time he crosses the finish line 11 s after he started the race 11) Chapter 2, Problem 6 Assume that Sean starts from rest and his motion...
6. Sean is running a 100 m dash. When the starter's pistol fires, he leaves the starting block and continues speeding up until 6 s into the race, when he reaches his top speed of 11 m/s. He holds this speed for 2 s; then his speed has slowed to 10 m/s by the time he crosses the finish line 11 s after he started the race. List of Equations (Use only if the problem must be solved in terms...
#1 An engineer wants to build a track to test the acceleration of a new vehicle to 100mph and back to a complete stop. The vehicle accelerates from rest to 100mph in 5.2s, and when the brakes are engaged, its maximum deceleration is 16m/s2. (a) What is the minimum required length of the track? (b) Plot the velocity vs time of one run where the vehicle accelerates to 100mph and then immediately decelerates to a complete stop. #2. Freight trains...
Please answer all questions. 1. One simple model for a person running the 100 m dash is to assume the sprinter runs with constant acceleration until reaching top speed, then maintains that speed through the finish line. If a sprinter reaches his top speed of 11.4 m/s in 2.34 s , what will be his total time? 2. Excellent human jumpers can leap straight up to a height of 120 cm off the ground. To reach this height, with what...
Problem two: Cari won.no Track A frictionless cart of mass M is attached to a spring with spring constant k. When the cart is displaced 6 centimeters from its rest Rest position position and released, il oscillates with a period of 2 seconds. Four students are discussing what would happen to the period of oscillation if the original cart with mass M was displaced 12 cm o O from its rest position instead of 6 cm and again released: Ava:...

6. A firm has a capital budget of $100 which must be spent on one of two projects, with any unspent balance being placed in a bank deposit earning 15%. Project A involves a present outlay of $100 and yields $321.76 after 5 years. Project B involves a present outlay of $40 and yields $92 after one year. Calculate: (i) the IRR of each project; (ii) the B/C ratio of each project, using a 15% discount rate. What are the...
