"on a snowy day, max (mass = 15 kg) pulls his little sister maya in a sled (combined mass = 20 kg) through the slippery snow. wh

en max pulls on the sled with 12 n of force, directed at an angle of 15° above the ground, how much work does max do on the sled as he pulls his sister 25 m in the snow?"

Refer to the diagram shown below.

The angle θ = 15° relative to the direction of motion.
Therefore the force acting in the direction of motion is
(12 N) cos(15°) = 11.59 N

By definition,
Work = Force x Distance.
Therefore work done in moving the sled by 25 m is
Work = (11.59 N)*(25 m) = 289.8 J

Answer: 289.8 J

An airplane starts from rest and accelerates at 10.8 m/s2 . what is its speed at the end of a 400 m long runway?
Cloud [144]

The final speed of an airplane is v = 92.95 m/s

The rate of change of position of an object in any direction is known as speed i.e. in other word, Speed is measured as the ratio of distance to the time in which the distance was covered.

Solution-

Here given,

Acceleration a= 10.8 m/s2 .

Displacement (s)= 400m

Then to find final speed of airplane v=?

Therefore from equation of motion can be written as,

v²=u²+ 2as

where, u is initial speed, v is final speed ,a is acceleration and s is displacement of the airplane. Therefore by putting the value of a & s in above equation and (u =0) i.e. the initial speed of airplane is zero.

v²= 2×10.8 m/s²×400m

v²=8640m/s

v=92.95m/s

hence the final speed of airplane v =92.95m/s

A 2 m tall, 0.5 m inside diameter tank is filled with water. A 10 cm hole is opened 0.75 m from the bottom of the tank. What is
valina [46]

Answer:

4.75 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of the velocity of the existing water is shown below:

Data provided in the question

Tall = 2 m

Inside diameter tank = 2m

Hole opened = 10 cm

Bottom of the tank = 0.75 m

Based on the above information, first we have to determine the height which is

= 2 - 0.75 - 0.10

= 2 - 0.85

= 1.15 m

We assume the following things

1. Compressible flow

2. Stream line followed

Now applied the Bernoulli equation to section 1 and 2

So we get

\frac{P_1}{p_g} + \frac{v_1^2}{2g} + z_1 = \frac{P_2}{p_g} + \frac{v_2^2}{2g} + z_2

where,

P_1 = P_2 = hydrostatic

z_1 = 0

z_2 = h

Now

\frac{v_1^2}{2g} + 0 = \frac{v_2^2}{2g} + h\\\\V_2 < < V_1 or V_2 = 0\\\\Therefore\  \frac{v_1^2}{2g} = h\\\\v_1^2 = 2gh\\\\ v_1 = \sqrt{2gh} \\\\v_1 = \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1.15}

= 4.7476 m/sec

= 4.75 m/s

You drop a rock off a bridge. The rock's height, h (in feet above the water), after t seconds is modeled by h = – 16 t2 + 541. W
marin [14]
<span>h ( t) = h(1 sec) = -16t^2 + 541

so h (2 sec) = -16*(2)^2 + 541 = -64 + 541 = <span>477 ft

Therefore, </span></span>the height of the rock after 2 seconds is 477 feet.

The Earth and the Moon are attracted to each other by universal gravitation. The Earth is much more massive than is the Moon. Do
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Earth attract the Moon with a force that is greater.

Explanation:

According to the law of gravitation, the gravitational force between two masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Mathematically, F1 = Gm1m2/r²... 1

Let m1 be the mass of the earth and m2 be that of the moon

If the Earth is much more massive than is the Moon, the new force of attraction between them will become;

F2= G(2m1)m2/r²

F2 = 2Gm1m2/r² ... (2)

Dividing eqn 1 by 2 we have;

F1/F2 = (Gm1m2/r²)÷(2Gm1m2/r²)

F1/F2 = Gm1m2/r²×r²/2Gm1m2

F1/F2 = 1/2

F2=2F1

This shows that that the earth will attract the moon by a force 2times the initial force of the masses(i.e a much greater force)
