How long Tina, a ballerina, in the air when she leaps straight up with a speed of 1.8 m/s?

Physics

Tems11 [23]3 years ago
3 0

The acceleration of gravity on or near the surface of the Earth is 9.8 m/s².
Anything acted on only by gravity loses 9.8 m/s of upward speed, or gains
9.8 m/s of downward speed, every second.

Leaping straight upward at 1.8 m/s, Tina keeps rising until she runs out of
upward speed.  That happens in (1.8/9.8) = 0.1837 second after the leap.

After that, Finkel's First Law of Motion takes over:
"What goes up must come down."

The dropping part of the leap is symmetrical with the first.  Please don't
make me go through proving it.  Tina hits the floor at the same speed of
1.8 m/s with which she left it, and it takes the same amount of time to drop
from the peak to the floor as it took to rise from the floor to the peak.

So her total time out of contact with the floor is

                     2 x (0.1837 sec)  =  0.367 second  (rounded)

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

232 J/K

Explanation:

The amount of heat gained by the air = the amount of heat lost by the tea.

q_air = -q_tea

q = -mCΔT

q = -(0.250 kg) (4184 J/kg/ºC) (20.0ºC − 85.0ºC)

q = 68,000 J

The change in entropy is:

dS = dQ/T

Since the room temperature is constant (isothermal):

ΔS = ΔQ/T

Plug in values (remember to use absolute temperature):

ΔS = (68,000 J) / (293 K)

ΔS = 232 J/K

What is the average velocity of a train moving along a straight track if its displacement is 192 m was during a time period of 8
Alex

Answer:

The average velocity of a train moving along a straight track if its displacement is 192 m was during a time period of 8.0 s is 24 \frac{m}{s}.

Explanation:

Velocity ​​is a physical quantity that expresses the relationship between the space traveled by an object and the time used for it. Then, the average velocity relates the change in position to the time taken to effect that change.

velocity=\frac{displacement}{time}

Velocity considers the direction in which an object moves, so it is considered a vector magnitude.

In this case, the displacement is 192 m and the time period is 8 s. Replacing:

velocity=\frac{192 m}{8 s}

Solving:

velocity= 24 \frac{m}{s}

<em><u>The average velocity of a train moving along a straight track if its displacement is 192 m was during a time period of 8.0 s is 24 </u></em>\frac{m}{s}<em><u>.</u></em>

A horizontal 826 N merry-go-round of radius 1.17 m is started from rest by a constant horizontal force of 57.8 N applied tangent
Julli [10]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the merry-go-round is \bf{475.47~J}.

Explanation:

Given:

Weight of the merry-go-round, W_{g} = 826~N

Radius of the merry-go-round, r = 1.17~m

the force on the merry-go-round, F = 57.8~N

Acceleration due to gravity, g= 9.8~m.s^{-2}

Time given, t=3.47~s

Mass of the merry-go-round is given by

m &=& \dfrac{W_{g}}{g}\\~~~~&=& \dfrac{826~N}{9.8~m.s^{-2}}\\~~~~&=& 84.29~Kg

Moment of inertial of the merry-go-round is given by

I &=& \dfrac{1}{2}mr^{2}\\~~~&=& \dfrac{1}{2}(84.29~Kg)(1.17~m)^{2}\\~~~&=& 57.69~Kg.m^{2}

Torque on the merry-go-round is given by

\tau &=& F.r\\~~~&=& (57.8~N)(1.17~m)\\~~~&=& 67.63~N.m

The angular acceleration is given by

\alpha &=& \dfrac{\tau}{I}\\~~~&=& \dfrac{67.63~N.m}{57.69~Kg.m^{2}}\\~~~&=& 1.17~rad.s^{-2}

The angular velocity is given by

\omega &=& \alpha.t\\~~~&=& (1.17~rad.s^{-2})(3.47~s)\\~~~&=& 4.06~rad.s^{-1}

The kinetic energy of the merry-go-round is given by

E &=& \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^{2}\\~~~&=&\dfrac{1}{2}(57.69~Kg.m^{2})(4.06~rad.s^{-1})^{2}\\~~~&=& 475.47~J

A 4.00 kg block is suspended from a spring with k 500 N/m. A 50.0 g bullet is fired into the block from directly below with a sp
Yanka [14]

Answer:

a. A = 0.1656 m

b. % E = 1.219

Explanation:

Given

mB = 4.0 kg , mb = 50.0 g = 0.05 kg , u₁ = 150  m/s , k = 500 N / m

a.

To find the amplitude of the resulting SHM using conserver energy

ΔKe + ΔUg + ΔUs = 0

¹/₂ * m * v²  -  ¹/₂ * k * A² = 0

A = √ mB * vₓ² / k

vₓ = mb * u₁ / mb + mB

vₓ = 0.05 kg * 150 m / s / [0.050 + 4.0 ] kg = 1.8518

A = √ 4.0 kg * (1.852 m/s)²   /   (500 N / m)

A = 0.1656 m

b.

The percentage of kinetic energy

%E = Es / Ek

Es = ¹/₂ * k * A² = 500 N / m * 0.1656²m = 13.72 N*0.5

Ek = ¹/₂ * mb * v² = 0.05 kg * 150² m/s = 1125 N

% E = 13.72 / 1125 = 0.01219 *100

% E = 1.219

Two transverse waves travel along the same taut string. Wave 1 is described by y1(x, t) = A sin(kx - ωt), while wave 2 is descri
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

6) Wave 1 travels in the positive x-direction, while wave 2 travels in the negative x-direction.

Explanation:

What matters is the part kx \pm \omega t, the other parts of the equation don't affect time and space variations. We know that when the sign is - the wave propagates to the positive direction while when the sign is + the wave propagates to the negative direction, but <em>here is an explanation</em> of this:

For both cases, + and -, after a certain time \delta t (\delta t >0), the displacement <em>y</em> of the wave will be determined by the kx\pm\omega (t+\delta t) term. For simplicity, if we imagine we are looking at the origin (x=0), this will be simply \pm \omega (t+\delta t).

To know which side, right or left of the origin, would go through the origin after a time \delta t (and thus know the direction of propagation) we have to see how we can achieve that same displacement <em>y</em> not by a time variation but by a space variation \delta x (we would be looking where in space is what we would have in the future in time). The term would be then k(x+\delta x)\pm\omega t, which at the origin is k \delta x \pm \omega t. This would mean that, when the original equation has kx+\omega t, we must have that \delta x>0 for k\delta x+\omega t to be equal to kx+\omega\delta t, and when the original equation has kx-\omega t, we must have that \delta x for k\delta x-\omega t to be equal to kx-\omega \delta t

<em>Note that their values don't matter, although they are a very small variation (we have to be careful since all this is inside a sin function), what matters is if they are positive or negative and as such what is possible or not .</em>

<em />

In conclusion, when kx+\omega t, the part of the wave on the positive side (\delta x>0) is the one that will go through the origin, so the wave is going in the negative direction, and viceversa.
