: A fan is placed on a horizontal track and given a slight push toward an end stop 1.80 meters away. Immediately after the push, the fan of the cart engages and slows the cart with an acceleration of -0.45 m/s2. What is the maximum possible velocity (magnitude) the cart can have after the push so that the cart turns around just before it hits the end-stop

Respuesta :

Answer:

The initial velocity is 1.27 m/s.

Explanation:

distance, s = 1.8 m

acceleration, a = - 0.45 m/s^2

final velocity, v = 0

let the initial velocity is u.

Use third equation of motion

[tex]v^2 = u^2 + 2 a s \\\\0 = u^2 - 2 \times 0.45\times 1.8\\\\u = 1.27 m/s[/tex]

We have that the Initial velocity  is mathematically given as

u=1.27m/s

Maximum possible velocity

Question Parameters:

a slight push toward an end stop 1.80 meters away

he fan of the cart engages and slows the cart with an acceleration of -0.45 m/s2

Generally the equation for the  third equation of motion    is mathematically given as

Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2ad

Therefore

0=u^2+0.45*1.8

u=1.27m/s
