In the process of loading a ship, a shipping container gets dropped into the water and sinks to the bottom of the harbor. Salvag

e experts plan to recover the container by attaching a spherical balloon to the container and inflating it with air pumped down from the surface. The dimensions of the container are 5.80 m long, 2.60 m wide, and 2.80 m high. As the crew pumps air into the balloon, its spherical shape increases and when the radius is 1.50 m, the shipping container just begins to rise toward the surface. Determine the mass of the container. You may ignore the weight of the balloon and the air in the balloon. The density of seawater is 1027 kg/m3.

Answer:

57.885.8 kg   weight of the container

Explanation:

The volume of the balloon * density of water = buoyant force of balloon

 volume of a sphere = 4/3 pi r^3

                                   = 4/3 pi * (1.5)^3 = 14.14 m^3   <===balloon volume

Now,   find the buoyant force on the container ALONE ....

             5.8 * 2.6 * 2.8  * 1027  = 43 364  kg   <=====  buoyant force

Now add the buoyant force of the balloon to find the weight

             43 364  +   14.14 * 1027 = 57885.8   kg

Guys please help me ​
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

1)t=2.26\: s

2)S=33.9\: m

3)v=26.77\: m/s

4)\alpha=55.92

Explanation:

1)

We can use the following equation:

y_{f}=y_{0}+v_{iy}t-0.5*g*t^{2}

Here, the initial velocity in the y-direction is zero, the final y position is zero and the initial y position is 25 m.

0=25-0.5*9.81*t^{2}

t=2.26\: s

2)

The equation of the motion in the x-direction is:

v_{ix}=\frac{S}{t}

15=\frac{S}{2.26}

S=33.9\: m

3)

The velocity in the y-direction of the stone will be:

v_{fy}=v_{iy}-gt

v_{fy}=0-(9.81*2.26)

v_{fy}=-22.17\: m/s

Now, the velocity in the x-direction is 15 m/s then the velocity will be:

v=\sqrt{v_{x}^{2}+v_{fy}^{2}}=\sqrt{15^{2}+(-22.17)^{2}}

v=26.77\: m/s

4)

The angle of this velocity is:

tan(\alpha)=\frac{22.17}{15}

\alpha=tan^{-1}(\frac{22.17}{15})

\alpha=55.92

Then α=55.92° negative from the x-direction.

I hope it helps you!

A projectile is shot directly away from Earth's surface. Neglect the rotation of the Earth. What multiple of Earth's radius RE g
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

(a) r = 1.062·R_E = \frac{531}{500} R_E

(b) r = \frac{33}{25} R_E

(c) Zero

Explanation:

Here we have escape velocity v_e given by

v_e =\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R_E} } and the maximum height given by

\frac{1}{2} v^2-\frac{GM}{R_E} = -\frac{GM}{r}

Therefore, when the initial speed is 0.241v_e we have

v = 0.241\times \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R_E} } so that;

v² = 0.058081\times {\frac{2GM}{R_E} }

v² = {\frac{0.116162\times GM}{R_E} }

\frac{1}{2} v^2-\frac{GM}{R_E} = -\frac{GM}{r} is then

\frac{1}{2} {\frac{0.116162\times GM}{R_E} }-\frac{GM}{R_E} = -\frac{GM}{r}

Which gives

-\frac{0.941919}{R_E} = -\frac{1}{r} or

r = 1.062·R_E

(b) Here we have

K_i = 0.241\times \frac{1}{2} \times m \times v_e^2 = 0.241\times \frac{1}{2} \times m  \times \frac{2GM}{R_E} = \frac{0.241mGM}{R_E}

Therefore we put  \frac{0.241GM}{R_E} in the maximum height equation to get

\frac{0.241}{R_E} -\frac{1}{R_E} =-\frac{1}{r}

From which we get

r = 1.32·R_E

(c) The we have the least initial mechanical energy, ME given by

ME = KE - PE

Where the KE = PE required to leave the earth we have

ME = KE - KE = 0

The least initial mechanical energy to leave the earth is zero.

what is the force of friction between an 80kg box and the ground on Earth if the coefficient is 0.2?​
Reil [10]

Answer:

160N

Explanation: When 80kg mass is one group . It's reaction force acting on a ground.

Weight of the object = 80*10

= 800 N

Here we are given cofficient of static friction its 0.2. It should be smaller than 1

Friction force = Reaction * Friction Cofficient

Reaction = 800N ( Considering Vertical Equilibrium )

F = 800* 0.2

F = 160N
