A river flows due east at 1.60 m/s. A boat crosses the river from the south shore to the north shore by maintaining a constant v
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

part (a) v\ =\ 10.42\ at\ 81.17^o towards north east direction.

part (b) s = 46.60 m

Explanation:

Given,

  • velocity of the river due to east = v_r\ =\ 1.60\ m/s.
  • velocity of the boat due to the north = v_b\ =\ 10.3\ m/s.

part (a)

River is flowing due to east and the boat is moving in the north, therefore both the velocities are perpendicular to each other and,

Hence the resultant velocity i,e, the velocity of the boat relative to the shore is in the North east direction. velocities are the vector quantities, Hence the resultant velocity is the vector addition of these two velocities and the angle between both the velocities are 90^o

Let 'v' be the velocity of the boat relative to the shore.

\therefore v\ =\ \sqrt{v_r^2\ +\ v_b^2}\\\Rightarrow v\ =\ \sqrt{1.60^2\ +\ 10.3^2}\\\Rightarrow v\ =\ 10.42\ m/s.

Let \theta be the angle of the velocity of the boat relative to the shore with the horizontal axis.

Direction of the velocity of the boat relative to the shore.\therefore Tan\theta\ =\ \dfrac{v_b}{v_r}\\\Rightarrow Tan\theta\ =\ \dfrac{10.3}{1.60}\\\Rightarrow \theta\ =\ Tan^{-1}\left (\dfrac{10.3}{1.60}\ \right )\\\Rightarrow \theta\ =\ 81.17^o

part (b)

  • Width of the shore = w = 300m

total distance traveled in the north direction by the boat is equal to the product of the velocity of the boat in north direction and total time taken

Let 't' be the total time taken by the boat to cross the width of the river.\therefore w\ =\ v_bt\\\Rightarrow t\ =\ \dfrac{w}{v_b}\\\Rightarrow t\ =\ \dfrac{300}{10.3}\\\Rightarrow t\ =\ 29.12 s

Therefore the total distance traveled in the direction of downstream by the boat is equal to the product of the total time taken and the velocity of the river\therefore s\ =\ u_rt\\\Rightarrow s\ =\ 1.60\times 29.12\\\Rightarrow s\ =\ 46.60\ m

The length of a simple pendulum is 0.81 mand the mass of the particle (the "bob") at the end of the cable is0.23 kg. The pendulu
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

\displaystyle w=3.478\ rad/sec

M=0.0182\ J

v=0.398\ m/s

Explanation:

<u>Simple Pendulum</u>

It's a simple device constructed with a mass (bob) tied to the end of an inextensible rope of length L and let swing back and forth at small angles. The movement is referred to as Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM).

(a) The angular frequency of the motion is computed as

\displaystyle w=\sqrt{\frac{g}{L}}

We have the length of the pendulum is L=0.81 meters, then we have

\displaystyle w=\sqrt{\frac{9.8}{0.81}}

\displaystyle w=3.478\ rad/sec

(b) The total mechanical energy is computed as the sum of the kinetic energy K and the potential energy U. At its highest point, the kinetic energy is zero, so the mechanical energy is pure potential energy, which is computed as

U=mgh

where h is measured to the reference level (the lowest point). Please check the figure below, to see the desired height is denoted as Y. We know that

H+Y=L

And

H=L\ cos\alpha

Solving for Y

Y=L(1-cos\alpha )

Since\ \alpha=8.1^o, L=0.81\ m

Y=0.0081\ m

The potential energy is

U=mgh=0.23\ kg(9.8\ m/s^2)(0.0081\ m)

U=0.0182\ J

The mechanical energy is, then

M=K+U=0+U=U

M=0.0182\ J

(c) The maximum speed is achieved when it passes through the lowest point (the reference for h=0), so the mechanical energy becomes all kinetic energy (K). We know

\displaystyle K=\frac{mv^2}{2}

Equating to the mechanical energy of the system (M)

\displaystyle \frac{mv^2}{2}=0.0182

Solving for v

\displaystyle v=\sqrt{\frac{(2)(0.0182)}{0.23}}

v=0.398\ m/s

A beam of light traveling through a liquid (of index of refraction n1 = 1.47) is incident on a surface at an angle of θ1 = 59° w
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

(a) n_{2} = \frac{n_{1}sin\theta_{1}}{sin\theta_{2}}

(b) n_{2} = 1.349

(c) v_{1} = 2.04\times 10^{8}\ m/s

(d) v_{2} = 2.22\times 10^{8}\ m/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Refractive index of medium 1, n_{1} = 1.47

Angle of refraction for medium 1, \theta_{1} = 59^{\circ}

Angle of refraction for medium 2, \theta_{1} = 69^{\circ}

Now,

(a) The expression for the refractive index of medium 2 is given by using Snell's law:

n_{1}sin\theta_{1} = n_{2}sin\theta_{2}

where

n_{2} = Refractive Index of medium 2

Now,

n_{2} = \frac{n_{1}sin\theta_{1}}{sin\theta_{2}}

(b) The refractive index of medium 2 can be calculated by using the expression in part (a) as:

n_{2} = \frac{1.47\times sin59^{\circ}}{sin69^{\circ}}

n_{2} = 1.349

(c) To calculate the velocity of light in medium 1:

We know that:

Refractive\ index,\ n = \frac{Speed\ of\ light\ in vacuum,\ c}{Speed\ of\ light\ in\ medium,\ v}

Thus for medium 1

n_{1} = \frac{c}{v_{1}

v_{1} = \frac{c}{n_{1} = \frac{3\times 10^{8}}{1.47} = 2.04\times 10^{8}\ m/s

(d) To calculate the velocity of light in medium 2:

For medium 2:

n_{2} = \frac{c}{v_{2}

v_{2} = \frac{c}{n_{1} = \frac{3\times 10^{8}}{1.349} = 2.22\times 10^{8}\ m/s

Consider a large truck carrying a heavy load, such as steel beams. A significant hazard for the driver is that the load may slid
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

A)

the minimum stopping distance for which the load will not slide forward relative to the truck is 14 m

B)

data that were not necessary to the solution are;

a) mass of truck and b) mass of load

Explanation:

Given that;

mass of load m_{LS} = 10000 kg

mass of flat bed m_{FB} = 20000 kg

initial speed of truck v_{0} = 12 m/s

coefficient of friction between the load sits and flat bed μs = 0.5

A) the minimum stopping distance for which the load will not slide forward relative to the truck.

Now, using the expression

Fs,max = μs F_{N}     -------------let this be equation 1

where F_{N} = normal force = mg

so

Fs,max = μs mg

ma_{max} = μs mg

divide through by mass

a_{max} = μs g    ---------- let this be equation 2

in equation 2, we substitute in our values

a_{max} = 0.5 × 9.8 m/s²

a_{max} = 4.9 m/s²

now, from the third equation of motion

v² = u² + 2as

v_{f}² = v_{0}² + 2aΔx

where v_{f} is final velocity ( 0 m/s )

a is acceleration( - 4.9 m/s² )

so we substitute

(0)² = (12 m/s)² + 2(- 4.9 m/s² )Δx

0 = 144 m²/s² - 9.8 m/s²Δx

9.8 m/s²Δx = 144 m²/s²

Δx = 144 m²/s² /  9.8 m/s²

Δx = 14 m

Therefore, the minimum stopping distance for which the load will not slide forward relative to the truck is 14 m

B) data that were not necessary to the solution are;

a) mass of truck and b) mass of load
