QUESTION:

Problem 1P

If a particle undergoes SHM with amplitude 0.18 m, what is the total distance it travels in one period?

ANSWER:

SolutionStep 1First, we have to list out the variables which is provided in the question.Here, they have provided that the car is initially at rest. Since it is at rest, the initial velocity,u = 0 m/sThe acceleration by the engine brought the car into a velocity of 15 m/s which is our finalvelocity, Therefore, v = 15 m/s.The mass of the car is given as, m = 1500 kgThe efficiency of the engine, = 10 % or 0.1. It means, the engine can convert only 10% ofenergy as work done.
