Given data:

* The height of the bullet is 22 m.

* The speed of bullet in the horizontal direction is 524 m/s.

Solution:

By the kinematics equation, the time taken by the bullet to reach the ground is,

h=u_yt+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where u_y is the vertical velocity component, t is the time taken to reach the ground, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the bullet,

Substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} 22=0+\frac{1}{2}\times9.8\times t^2 \\ t^2=\frac{22\times2}{9.8} \\ t^2=4.49 \\ t=2.12\text{ s} \end{gathered}

Thus, the time taken by the bullet to reach the ground is 2.12 seconds.

By the kinematics equation for the horizontal motion, the horizontal range of the bullet is,

R=u_xt+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where u_x is the horizontal component of the velocity, a is the acceleration along the horizontal direction, t is the time taken to reach the ground and R is the horizontal range,

Substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} R=524\times2.12+0 \\ R=1110.9\text{ m} \end{gathered}

Thus, the horizontal range of the bullet is 1110.9 meters.

Hence, the bullet hit the ground at 1110.9 meters.

What is the magnitude of the torque about his shoulder if he holds his arm straight out to his side, parallel to the floor
const2013 [10]

Complete Question

An athlete at the gym holds a 3.0 kg steel ball in his hand. His arm is 70 cm long and has a mass of 4.0 kg. Assume, a bit unrealistically, that the athlete's arm is uniform.

What is the magnitude of the torque about his shoulder if he holds his arm straight out to his side, parallel to the floor? Include the torque due to the steel ball, as well as the torque due to the arm's weight.

Answer:

The torque is  \tau = 34.3 \  N\cdot m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the steel ball is  m  =  3.0 \  kg

    The length of arm is  l =  70 \ cm  = 0.7 \  m

    The mass of the arm is m_a  = 4.0 \  kg

Given that the arm of the athlete is uniform them the distance from the shoulder to the center of gravity of the arm is mathematically represented as

       r = \frac{l}{2}

=>    r = \frac{ 0.7}{2}  

=>    r = 0.35 \ m  

Generally the magnitude of torque about the athlete shoulder is mathematically represented as

      \tau =  m_a * g * r  + m * g *  L

=>    \tau =  4 * 9.8 * 0.35 + 3 * 9.8 *  0.70

=>    \tau = 34.3 \  N\cdot m

Calculate the energy needed to heat 4 kg of water from 25°C to 45°C.
inna [77]
(1 cal/g °C) x (4000 g) x (45 - 25)°C = 80000 cal = 80 kcal. So the answer is 80 kcal .
