Answer:
a) Acceleration of runner is 1.33 m/s²
b) Acceleration of motorcycle is 2.85 m/s²
c) The motorcycle moves 84.21-2.94 = 81.06 m farther than the runner.
Explanation:
t = Time taken
u = Initial velocity = 0
v = Final velocity
s = Displacement
a = Acceleration
Equation of motion
[tex]v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{2.8-0}{2.1}\\\Rightarrow a=1.33\ m/s^2[/tex]
Acceleration of runner is 1.33 m/s²
[tex]v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{43-37}{2.1}\\\Rightarrow a=2.85\ m/s^2[/tex]
Acceleration of motorcycle is 2.85 m/s²
[tex]v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{2.8^2-0^2}{2\times 1.33}\\\Rightarrow s=2.94\ m[/tex]
The runner moves 2.94 m
[tex]v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{43^2-37^2}{2\times 2.85}\\\Rightarrow s=84.21\ m[/tex]
The motorcycle moves 84.21 m
The motorcycle moves 84.21-2.94 = 81.06 m farther than the runner.
