A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a 55 m building and lands 150 m from the base of the building. Ignore air resistan

ce, and use a coordinate system whose origin is at the top of the building, with positive y upwards and positive x in the direction of the throw.

Answer:

a) t =3.349 s

b) V_x,i = 44.8 m/s

c) V_y,f = 32.85 m/s

d) V = 55.55 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

- Total throw in x direction x(f) = 150 m

- Total distance traveled down y(f) = 55 m

Find:

a) How long is the rock in the air in seconds.

b) What must have been the initial horizontal component of the velocity, in meters per second?

c) What is the vertical component of the velocity just before the rock hits the ground, in meters per second?

d) What is the magnitude of the velocity of the rock just before it hits the ground, in meters per second?

Solution:

- Use the second equation of motion in y direction:

y(f) = y(0) + V_y,i*t + 0.5*g*t^2

- V_y,i = 0 (horizontal throw)

55 = 0 + 0 + 0.5*(9.81)*t^2

t = sqrt ( 55 * 2 / 9.81 )

t =3.349 s

- Use the second equation of motion in x direction:

x(f) = x(0) + V_x,i*t

150 = 0 + V_x,i*3.349

V_x,i = 150 / 3.349 = 44.8 m/s

- Use the first equation of motion in y direction:

V_y,f = V_y,i + g*t

V_y,f = 0 + 9.81*3.349

V_y,f = 32.85 m/s

- The magnitude of velocity of ball when it hits the ground is:

V^2 = V_y,f^2 + V_x,i^2

V = sqrt (32.85^2 + 44.8^2)

V = 55.55 m/s

Two metal disks, one with radius R1 = 2.45 cm and mass M1 = 0.900 kg and the other with radius R2 = 5.00 cm and mass M2 = 1.60 k

natima [27]

Answer:

part (a) $a_1\ =\ 2.9\ kg$

Part (b) $a_2\ =\ 6.25\ kg$

Explanation:

Given,

mass of the smaller disk = $M_1\ =\ 0.900\ kg$
Radius of the smaller disk = $R_1\ =\ 2.45\ cm\ =\ 0.0245\ m$

mass of the larger disk = $M_2\ =\ 1.6\ kg$
Radius of the larger disk = $R_2\ =\ 5.0\ cm\ =\ 0.05\ m$
mass of the hanging block = m = 1.60 kg

Let I be the moment of inertia of the both disk after the welding, $\therefore I\ =\ I_1\ +\ I_2\\\Rightarrow I\ =\ \dfrac{1}{2}(M_1R_1^2\ +\ M_2R_2^2)\\\Rightarrow I\ =\ 0.5\times (0.9\times 0.0245^2\ +\ 1.6\times 0.05^2)\\\Rightarrow I\ =\ 2.27\times 10^{-3}\ kgm^2$

part (a)

A block of mass m is hanging on the smaller disk,

From the f.b.d. of the block,

Let 'a' be the acceleration of the block and 'T' be the tension in the string.

$mg\ -\ T\ =\ mg\\\Rightarrow T\ =\ mg\ -\ ma\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,eqn (1)$

Net torque on the smaller disk,

$\therefore \tau\ =\ I\alpha\\\Rightarrow TR_1\ =\ \dfrac{Ia}{R_1}\\\Rightarrow T\ =\ \dfrac{Ia}{R_1^2}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,enq (2)$

From eqn (1) and (2), we get,

$mg\ -\ ma\ =\ \dfrac{Ia}{R_1^2}\\\Rightarrow a\ =\ \dfrac{mg}{\dfrac{I}{R_1^2}\ +\ m}\\\Rightarrow a\ =\ \dfrac{1.60\times 9.81}{\dfrac{2.27\times 10^{-3}}{0.027^2}\ +\ 1.60}\\\Rightarrow a\ =\ 2.91\ m/s^2$

part (b)

In this case the mass is rapped on the larger disk,

From the above expression of the acceleration of the block, acceleration is only depended on the radius of the rotating disk,

Let ' $a_2$ ' be the acceleration of the block in the second case,

From the above expression,

$\therefore a\ =\ \dfrac{mg}{\dfrac{I}{R_1^2}\ +\ m}\\\Rightarrow a\ =\ \dfrac{1.60\times 9.81}{\dfrac{2.27\times 10^{-3}}{0.05^2}\ +\ 1.60}\\\Rightarrow a\ =\ 6.25\ m/s^2$

Normally, jet engines push air out the back of the engine, resulting in forward thrust, but commercial aircraft often have thrus

ANEK [815]

Answer:

When the ejected air is moving in the downward direction then the thrust force acts in the upward direction, due to reversal thrust, the jets can take off vertically without needing a runway this way.

Explanation:

Newton’s third law motion states that for every action there will be an equal and opposite reaction.

Thrust reversal is also known as reverse thrust. It acts opposite to the motion of the aircraft by providing the deceleration.

Commercial aircraft moves the ejected air in the forward direction means that the thrust will acts opposite to the motion of the aircraft that is backward direction due to thrust reversal. This thrust force might be used to decelerate the craft.

Uses of thrust reversal in practice:

When the ejected air is moving forward direction then the thrust force moving backward direction due to reversal thrust the speed of the craft slows down.

When the ejected air is moving in the downward direction then the thrust force acts in the upward direction, due to reversal thrust, the jets can take off vertically without needing a runway this way.

180 cm3 of hot tea at 97 °C are poured into a very thin paper cup with 20 g of crushed ice at 0 °C. Calculate the final temperat

Zolol [24]

Answer : The final temperature of the mixture is $91.9^oC$

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the mass of water.

Mass = Density × Volume

Density of water = 1.00 g/mL

Mass = 1.00 g/mL × 180 cm³ = 180 g

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

$q_1=-q_2$

$m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)$

where,

$c_1$ = specific heat of hot water (liquid) = $4.18J/g^oC$

$c_2$ = specific heat of ice (solid)= $2.10J/g^oC$

$m_1$ = mass of hot water = 180 g

$m_2$ = mass of ice = 20 g

$T_f$ = final temperature of mixture = ?

$T_1$ = initial temperature of hot water = $97^oC$

$T_2$ = initial temperature of ice = $0^oC$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

$(180g)\times (4.18J/g^oC)\times (T_f-97)^oC=-(20g)\times 2.10J/g^oC\times (T_f-0)^oC$

$T_f=91.9^oC$

Therefore, the final temperature of the mixture is $91.9^oC$

The hydraulic oil in a car lift has a density of 8.30 102 kg/m³. The weight of the input piston is negligible. The radii of the

denpristay [2]

Answer:

(a) $F_i=68.58\ N$

(b) $F_i=69.903\ N$

Explanation:

Given:

density of hydraulic oil, $\rho=830\ kg.m^{-3}$

radius of input piston, $r_i=6.3\times 10^{-3}\ m$

radius of output plunger, $r_o=0.125\ m$

force to be supported, $F_o=27000\ N$

(a)

<u><em>Condition:</em></u><em>The bottom surfaces of piston and plunger at the same level.</em>

According to Pascal's law the pressure of a fluid is exerted equally in all directions against the walls of its container.

Mathematically:

$\frac{F_i}{A_i} =\frac{F_o}{A_o}$

putting respective values

$\frac{F_i}{\pi\times r_i^2} =\frac{27000}{\pi\times r_o^2}$

$\frac{F_i}{\pi\times (6.3\times 10^{-3})^2} =\frac{27000}{\pi\times 0.125^2}$

$F_i=68.58\ N$

(b)

<u><em>Condition:</em></u><em>The bottom surface of the output plunger is 1.30 m above that of the input piston.</em>

Given:

$h=1.3\ m$

Now,

$P_i=P_o+\rho.g.h$

$\frac{F_i}{\pi\times (6.3\times 10^{-3})^2} =\frac{27000}{\pi\times 0.125^2} +830\times 9.8\times 1.3$

$F_i=69.903\ N$

What are the types of pulleys

tatyana61 [14]

I found this on google
<span>There are three main types of pulleys: fixed, movable, and compound. A fixed pulley's wheel and axle stay in one place. A good example of a fixed pulley is a flag pole: When you pull down on the rope, the direction of force is redirected by the pulley, and you raise the flag.</span>
