Q. At what point in a waterfall do the drops of water contain the most kinetic energy ?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

2.When they reach the bottom of the fall

Explanation:

The potential energy of the waterfall is maximum at the maximum height and decreases with decrease in height. Based on the law of conservation of mechanical energy, as the potential energy of the water fall is decreasing with  decrease in height of the fall, its kinetic energy will be increasing and the kinetic energy will be maximum at zero height (bottom of the fall).

Thus, the correct option is "2" When they reach the bottom of the fall

A bottle lying on the windowsill falls off and takes 4.95 seconds to reach the ground. The distance from the windowsill to the g
mr Goodwill [35]

The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is

                         D  =  (1/2) (g) (t²)

            Distance  =  (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)

We want to see how the time will be affected
if  ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does.
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '.

                                                      D  =  (1/2) (g) (t²)

Multiply each side by  2 :         2 D  =            g    t² 

Divide each side by ' g ' :      2 D/g =                  t²

Square root each side:        t = √ (2D/g)


Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens
to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes: 

-- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'
                                             and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .

-- They don't change by the same factor, because  1/g  is inside
the square root.  So 't' changes the same amount as  √1/g  does.

Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly  1/6  the value
of gravity on the surface of the Earth.

So we expect ' t ' to increase by  √6  =  2.45 times.

It would take the same bottle  (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds
to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the
surface of the Moon.

An airplane with an airspeed of 120 km/h has a heading of 30 degree east of North in a wind that is blowing toward the east at 6
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity of plane relative to ground V_pg = ?

Given the velocity in vector form ,

velocity of plane relative to air V_pw = 120 cos30 i + 120sin30j

V_wg = 60 i

V_pg = V_pw +V_wg

= 120 cos30 i + 120sin30j + 60i

= 164 i + 60 j

In this model, the velocity of the spacecraft at position 2 is the velocity of the craft at position 4. at position 1, the direc
Free_Kalibri [48]

1. The velocity of the spacecraft at position 2 is greater than the velocity of the craft at position 4.

This is due the gravity field of the Earth is used to accelerate the craft. This is true when in a specific point the direction of the movement of the craft is the same direction of the movement of the planet.

In this case the craft will be “catched” by the Earth’s gravitational field, making the craft  to enter a circular orbit.

2. At point 1, the direction of the spacecraft changes because of the gravitational force between earth and the spacecraft.

As explained in the first answer, this is the exact point where the trajectory of the spacecraft enters into a circular orbit because of the attraction due gravity of the Earth and therefore changes its direction.

3. Position 3 represents the orbital path of Earth

Being this the orbital path of the Earth and considering the trajectory of the craft, the condition of accelerating the craft is accomplished. If the orbital path of the Earth were the opposite, the effect on the craft would be braking.

Note all of these is related to the gravitational assistance, this consists in a maneuver in which the energy of the gravitational field of a planet or satellite is used to obtain an acceleration or braking of the probe or craft, changing its trajectory.

A van has a weight of 4000 lb and center of gravity at Gv. It carries a fixed 900 lb load which has a center of gravity at Gl. I
natulia [17]

Answer:

 x = 25 / μ     [ ft]

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we can use Newton's second law.

Let's set a reference system where the x axis is parallel to the road

Y axis  

       N_B + N_A - W_van - W_load = 0

       N_B + N_A = W_van + W_load

X axis

     fr = ma

     a = fr / m

the total mass is

        m = (W_van + W_load) / g

the friction force has the expression

      fr = μ N_{total}

      fr = μy (W_van + W_load)

we substitute

      a = μ (W_van + W_load)    \frac{g}{W_van + W_load}

      a = μ g

taking the acceleration let's use the kinematic relations where the final velocity is zero

       v² = v₀² - 2 a x

       0 = v₀² -2a x

        x = \frac{v_o^2}{2a}

        x = \frac{v_o^2}{2 \mu g}

        x = \frac{40^2}{2 \ 32 \  \mu}

        x = 25 / μ     [ ft]
