A buoy is a floating device that can have many purposes, but often as a locator for ships. Collin constructs a hollow metal buoy

by welding together two identical cones of height h and diameter d. The resulting double-cone buoy has average density equal to half the density of seawater meaning that its total mass divided by total volume is half the density of seawater. Throughout this problem, you can ignore the air above the sea’s surface.1. When the buoy is at rest in a calm ocean, with its axis of symmetry perpendicular to the water’s surface, what fraction of it will be submerged?2. If the buoy is at rest at time t = 0 and is then pushed down slightly into the water and let go, what will be its angular frequency ω of small oscillations in terms of the given variables? Note: the volume of a cone of height h and base area A is hA/3.3. What should be the height h of each cone in the buoy so that the buoy will execute one oscillation period every second and therefore be usable as a clock with one-second accuracy?

Answer:

A) since the density of the buoy is half the density of sea water when the buoy is at rest on an ocean half of the buoy will be submerged in water

B )angular frequency ( w ) = \sqrt{\frac{3g}{h} }

c )  h = 1.34 m ( 4\pi ^{2} / 3g )

Explanation:

A) since the density of the buoy is half the density of sea water when the buoy is at rest on an ocean half of the buoy will be submerged in water this is because the substances with lesser density floats when placed in a substance with a higher density

B ) when the Buoy is at rest ( t = 0 ) and is then pushed down calculate angular frequency ( w ) of small oscillations in terms of the given variables

volume of cone = hA /3.

h = height of cone, A = Base Area.

therefore the total volume of the Buoy above water level ( at rest )

= (\pi r^{2} * \frac{h}{3} ) * 2 = \frac{\pi r^{2} h  }{6}

The  part of the buoy immersed in water = x

then the net upward force will be

fb ( force of Buoy ) =  fg ( force of gravity )

note force = Mass * Acceleration

force of buoy = \frac{\alpha }{2} *\frac{\pi r^{2}  }{h}* a = ( force of gravity ) \alpha * T\frac{r^{2} }{4} * x * g

therefore a = \frac{3g}{h}  * x

angular frequency ( w ) = \sqrt{\frac{3g}{h} }

C ) height of the each cone

\frac{2\pi }{w}  = 1 therefore w = 2\pi

back to the angular frequency : \frac{3g}{h} = 4\pi ^{2}

therefore h = 1.34 m ( 4\pi ^{2} / 3g )

Art [367]

Answer:

Let the momentum of the orange train be positive

P = 100 * 8 - 200 * 1 = 600 kg-m/s

P(final) = 600 kg-m/s

P / M = 600 kg-m/sec / 300 kg = 2 m/s    

Answer-B     final momentum = 600 kg-m/s

a car moving on a road passes by kilometer 218 at 10:15 am and milestone 236 at 10:30 am. determine an average scalar speed in k
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

v?

Explanation:

v = ∆s / ∆t

v =?

∆s = 236 - 218 = 18km

=t = 10: 30 - 10:15 = 15 minutes to hour 15/60 = 0.25h

v = 18 / 0.25

v = 72km / h

speed of 72km / h

A 100 meter rope is 20 kg and is stretched with a tension of 20 newtons. If one end of the rope is vibrated with small amplitude
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

The velocity waves before rain is 10 m/s

The velocity of wave after the rope soaked up 5 kg more is 8.944 m/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Length of the rope, l = 100 m

Mass of the rope, m = 20 kg

Force due to tension in the rope, T_{r} = 20 N

Frequency of vibration in the rope, f = 10 Hz

Extra mass of the rope after being soaked in rain water, m' = 5 kg

Now,

In a rope, the wave velocity is given by:

v_{w} = \sqrt{\frac{T_{r}}{M_{d}}}         (1)

where

M_{d} = mass density

Mass density before soaking, M_{d} = \frac{m}{l} = \frac{20}{100} = 0.20

Mass density after being soaked, M_{d} = \frac{m + m'}{l} = \frac{25}{100} = 0.25

Initially, the velocity is given by using eqn (1):

v_{w} = \sqrt{\frac{20}{0.20}} = 10 m/s

The velocity after being soaked in rain:

v_{w} = \sqrt{\frac{20}{0.25}} = 8.944 m/s
