Mickey, a daredevil mouse of mass m , m, is attempting to become the world's first "mouse cannonball." He is loaded into a sprin

g-powered gun pointing up at some angle, and is shot into the air. The gun's spring has force constant k k and is initially compressed a distance X X from its relaxed position. If Mickey has a constant horizontal speed V V while he is flying through the air, how high above his initial location in the gun does Mickey soar? Find an expression for Mickey's maximum height h m hm in terms of m , m, V , V, X , X, k , k, and g .

Answer:

  h = v₀² / 2g ,      h = k/4g     x²

Explanation:

In this exercise we can use the law of conservation of energy at two points, the lowest, before the shot and the highest point that the mouse reaches

Starting point. Lower compressed spring

              Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

Final point. Highest on the path

             Em_{f} = U = mg h

             

As or no friction the energy is conserved  

              Em₀ =  Em_{f}

              ½ m v₀²² = m g h

             h = v₀² / 2g

We can also use as initial energy the energy stored in the spring that will later be transferred to the mouse

                  ½ k x² = 2 g h

                  h = k/4g     x²

A high speed train is traveling at a speed of 44.7 m/s when the engineer sounds the 415 Hz warning horn. The speed of sound is 3
il63 [147K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed of the source of sound = v = 44.7 m/s

Speed of sound = V = 343 m/s

a) Apparent  frequency as the train approaches = f =  [V /(V -v) ] × f

= [343 / (343 - 44.7) ] × 415  = 477.18 Hz

Wave length =  λ = v / f = 343 / 477.18 = 0.719 m

b) Frequency heard as the train leaves = f ' =  [V / ( V + v) ] f

                                                                     = [343 / { 343 + 44.7 ) ] x 415

                                                                      = 367.2 Hz

Wavelength when leaving = v / f = 343 / 367.2 = 0.934 m

A 1,100 kg car is traveling initially 20 m/s when the brakes are applied. The brakes apply a constant force while bringing the c
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Work done = -220,000 Joules.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass = 1100kg

Initial velocity = 20m/s

To find workdone, we would calculate the kinetic energy possessed by the car.

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}

Where,

  • K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.
  • M represents mass measured in kilograms.
  • V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

K.E = \frac{1}{2}*1100*20^{2}

K.E = 550*400

K.E = 220,000J

Therefore, the workdone to bring the car to rest would be -220,000 Joules because the braking force is working to oppose the motion of the car.

Nezavi [6.7K]

This is the photoelectric effect, and it is best explained by the particle model of light.

<h3>What is the photoelectric effect?</h3>

The photoelectric effect refers to the emission of negatively charged particles and electromagnetic radiation that hits an object.

The photoelectric effect shows how electrons can be released from a given object when this material is absorbing electromagnetic radiation.

The photoelectric effect is a fundamental piece of evidence for understanding the nature of light particles.
