Question : A 550 kilogram mass initially at rest acted upon by a force of F(t) = 50et Newtons. What are the acceleration, speed, and displacement of the mass at t = 4 second ?
a =(50 e^t)/(550 ) [N/kg]
v = ∫_0^t▒(50 e^t )dt/(550 )= v_0 +(50 e^t-50)/550=((e^t- 1))/11
x = ∫_0^t▒(e^t- 1)dt/(11 )= x_0 +(e^t- t - 1)/(11 )
a(4s)=(50*54.6)/550= 4.96[m/s^2 ]
v(4s)=((e^4-1))/11= 4.87[m/s]
x(4s)=((e^4- 4 - 1))/11= 4.51 [m]
1. Circle weather the following statements are true or false. If the statement is true justify your reasoning if the statement is false correct the statement to make it true or justify why it is false
a. Impulse is the integral of a force vs distance graph
b. In two dimensions analyzing linear and angular momentum provides up to three scalar equations.
c. Linear acceleration and angular acceleration both have units of ft/s^2 or m/s^2
d. When absolute motion or a rigid body it is important to find a function that relates linear and angular position then integrate to find velocity
e. Instantaneous centers can only be determined for velocity and only for a snapshot in time
The amount of time it takes for a pendulum to swing “to-and-fro” through one complete cycle is called the “period” and is calculated using the following equation:
where
T = period in seconds, I = mass moment of inertia, m = mass of pendulum in kilograms
g = gravitational acceleration, 9.8 m/s2, h = effective length of pendulum in meters
What is the appropriate unit for I if the preceding equation is to be homogeneous in units? Please show all of your work.

We fill our tires with air, or with nitrogen, but it always works out the same way. Enough gas goes in, the tire inflates, and then the pressure starts going up. In this assignment, we’ll be investigating the ways that the gas laws impact how we treat our tires. Q1. I have good information that in Fast 29, Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) will need to refill a tire quickly during a dramatic moment. For this reason, he has a 3.00 L tank of compressed air that is under 2.7892*103 mmHg and is kept cool in dry ice at -35.0 °C. When Dom hooks his compressed air up to his completely empty 10.50 L tire at 39.2 °C and lets it run, what will his final tire pressure be, in atm? Assume all the air is transferred into the tire. Is his tire pressure above the 2.31 atm that he needs to save the planet/his family/his crew? Q2.

Here, the universe can be defined as: system + surroundings (everything but the system –everything outside the system).
