Orlov [11]

The number converted is $0.0467 \frac{(kg)(s)}{m^3}$

Explanation:

In order to convert from the original units to the final units, we have to keep in mind the following conversion factors:

$1 kg = 1000 g = 10^6 mg$

$1 min = 60 s$

$1 m^3 = 1000 L$

The original unit that we have is

$\frac{mg\cdot min}{L}$

Therefore, it can be rewritten as:

$=\frac{mg \frac{1}{10^6 mg/kg}\cdot min\cdot 60 s/min}{L\frac{1}{1000L/m^3}}=0.06 \frac{(kg)(s)}{m^3}$

Therefore, since the initial number was 0.779, the final value is

$0.779\cdot 0.06 \frac{(kg)(s)}{m^3}=0.0467 \frac{(kg)(s)}{m^3}$

A dolphin in an aquatic show jumps straight up out of the water at a velocity of 15.0 m/s. (a) List the knowns in this problem.

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Y0 = 0 m

Vy0 = 15 m/s

ay = -9.81 m/s^2

b) 7.71 m

c) 3.06 s

Explanation:

The knowns are that the initial vertical speed (at t = 0 s) is 15 m/s upwards. Also at that time the dolphin is coming out of the water, so its initial position is 0 m. And since we can safely assume this happens in Earth, the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity, which is 9.81 m/s^2 pointing downwards

Y(0) = 0 m

Vy(0) = 15 m/s

ay = -9.81 m/s^2 (negative because it points down)

Since acceleration is constant we can use the equation for uniformly accelerated movement:

Y(t) = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2

To find the highest point we do the first time derivative (this is the speed:

V(t) = Vy0 + a * t

We equate this to zero

0 = Vy0 + a * t

0 = 15 - 9.81 * t

15 = 9.81 * t

t = 0.654 s

At this time it will have a height of:

Y(0.654) = 0 + 15 * 0.654 - 1/2 * 9.81 * 0.654^2 = 7.71 m

The doplhin jumps and falls back into the water, when it falls again it position will be 0 again. So we can equate the position to zero to find how long it was in the air knowing that it started the jump at t = 0s.

0 = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2

0 = 0 + 15 * t - 1/2 * 9.81 t^2

0 = 15 * t - 4.9 * t^2

0 = t * (15 - 4.9 * t)

t1 = 0 This is the moment it jumped into the air

0 = 15 - 4.9 * t2

15 = 4.9 * t2

t2 = 3.06 s This is the moment when it falls again.

3.06 - 0 = 3.06 s

A constant force of 8.0 N is exerted for 4.0 s on a 16-kg object initially at rest. The change in speed of this object will be:

AfilCa [17]

The change in speed of this object is 3m/s

According to Newton's second law;

F = ma

F = mv/t

Given the following parameters

Force F = 8.0N

mass m = 16kg

time t = 4.0s

Required

speed v

Substitute the given parameters into the formula

v = Ft/m

v = 8 * 6/16

v = 48/16

v = 3m/s

Hence the change in speed of this object is 3m/s
