When a mortar shell is fired with an initial

Shtirlitz [24]3 years ago
5 0
The equation y = Vo cos(alfa) t - 16t^2 implies that the mortar landed at the same level that it was fire and that fire angle is also 75°.

With that said, let us work on the parametric equations

y = 0 = Vo sin(alfa) t - 16t^2, which by factoring =>

     t (Vo sin(alfa) - 16t) = 0 => t = Vo sin(alfa) / 16    .....(1)

x = 2500 = Vo cos(alfa) t => t = 2500 / [Vo cos(alfa)]      ..... (2)

Now make (1) equal to (2)

Vo sin(alfa) / 16 = 2500 / [Vo cos(alfa)] =>

Vo^2 sin(alfa)cos(alfa) = 2500ft*16ft/s^2 =>

Vo^2 = 2500*16 / [sin(75°)cos(75)] = 2500*16/0.25 = 160,000 ft^2/s^2

Vo = √(160,000) ft/s = 400 ft/s

Answer: option 5. 400 ft/s

If a body of mass 5og moves in a circular path of radius 10cm .find work done
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

0Nm, no work is done.

Explanation:

Work done is defined as the Force per distance meaning force times the distance moved in the direction of the force.

Now the body of mass 50g has a centripetal force acting on it directed towards the centre. Now in actuality the body stays along the circle it doesn't really move to the centre of the circle.

Hence the force doesn't move a distance, and so from the definition of work done;

F×d ; d =0

Hence work done = mv2/r × 0= 0Nm

A 2kg block has 70J of KE. It then travels 1.5 meters up a hill. As it travels up the hill friction does -12J of work on the blo
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

v = 5.34[m/s]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must use the theorem of work and energy conservation. This theorem tells us that the sum of the mechanical energy in the initial state plus the work on or performed by a body must be equal to the mechanical energy in the final state.

Mechanical energy is defined as the sum of energies, kinetic, potential, and elastic.

E₁ = mechanical energy at initial state [J]

E_{1}=E_{pot}+E_{kin}+E_{elas}\\

In the initial state, we only have kinetic energy, potential energy is not had since the reference point is taken below 1.5[m], and the reference point is taken as potential energy equal to zero.

In the final state, you have kinetic energy and potential since the car has climbed 1.5[m] of the hill. Elastic energy is not available since there are no springs.

E₂ = mechanical energy at final state [J]

E_{2}=E_{kin}+E_{pot}

Now we can use the first statement to get the first equation:

E_{1}+W_{1-2}=E_{2}

where:

W₁₋₂ = work from the state 1 to 2.

E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

h = elevation = 1.5 [m]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

70 - 12 = \frac{1}{2}*2*v^{2}+2*9.81*1.5

58 = v^{2} +29.43\\v^{2} =28.57\\v=\sqrt{28.57}\\v=5.34[m/s]

Newton's law of gravity was inconsistent with Einstein's special relativity because
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Mass and thus force depends on the reference frame chosen

Explanation:

This can be explained as Newton's law of gravity provides action which are instantaneous at a distance and involves the evaluation of all the quantities at present time or at the instant they occur.

If the body undergoes a change in its mass distribution there will be an immediate change in its gravitational force without any lag.

Now, if we talk about special relativity, it would be absurd to say that an information can travel faster than light. The effect is in synchronization with the cause in one reference frame where the effect occurs after the cause for some observer in some other reference frame.

In order to observe Newton's law of gravity all the observer's in different reference frames must observe the same phenomena which could only be possible if time were absolute and in special relativity, time is not absolute.

Therefore, Newton's law of gravity was inconsistent with the Einstein's Special Relativity.
