We have the equation of motion s = ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2 , where s is the displacement, a is the acceleration, u is the initial velocity and t is the time taken.

Here displacement = 100 m, Initial velocity = 0 m/s, acceleration = 9.81 m/s^2

Substituting

100 = 0*t+\frac{1}{2} *9.8*t^2\\ \\ 100 = 4.9t^2\\ \\ t = 4.52 seconds

A cannon ball is launched off a 100 m cliff horizontally with an initial horizontal velocity (Vx) of 50 m/s will take 4.52 seconds to reach the ground.

1) A boy drags a wooden crate with a mass of 20 kg, a distance of 12 m, across a rough level floor at a constant speed of 1.5 m/
mojhsa [17]

Answer: a) 49.560 and 21.13 b) i) 50 N, ii) 196 N iii) 196 N iv) 47.685 N

c) i) 594.72 ii) 0 iii) 0 iv) 0

d) 594.72

Explanation: question a)

The force is inclined at an angle of 25° to the horizontal

The horizontal component of force = 50 cos 25° = 49.560 N

The vertical component of force = 50 sin 30°= 21.130N

Question b)

i) according to the question applied force is 50 N

ii) if g = 9.8m/s², w=mg where m = mass of object = 20kg hence weight = 20* 9.8 = 196 N

iii) the normal force is the force the floor exerts on the body as a result of the weight of the object.

Normal reaction R = W = mg, we already deduced that w = mg, hence R = 196 N.

iv) according to newton's laws of motion

F - Fr = ma

F = applied force = horizontal component of force = 49.560 N.

We need to get the acceleration (a) by using Newton laws of motion before we can be able to compute the frictional force..

The body started from rest hence initial velocity u = 0

Final velocity v = 1.5m/s distance covered (s) = 12m

v ² = u² + 2as

But u = 0

v² = 2as

1.5² = 2(a) * 12

2.25 = 24a

a = 2.25/24 = 0.09735m/s²

From F - Fr = ma

49.560 - Fr = 20 * 0.09735

49.560 - Fr = 1.875

Fr = 49.560 - 1.875

Fr = 47.685 N

Question c)

i) The applied force = 49.560 N, distance covered = 12m

Work done = force * distance

Work done = 49.560 * 12

Work done = 594.72 J

ii) the weight of the object does not make the object move a distance, hence work done = 0 ( since distance covered is 0)

iii) the normal force is the same thing as the weight and they did not cover any distance hence work done is zero.

iv) the frictional force does not cover any distance, hence work done is zero.

Question d)

The total work done = work done by applied force + work done by weight + work done by normal reaction + work done by frictional force.

Total work done = 594.72 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 594.72 J

A 2.5-L tank initially is empty, and we want to fill it with 10 g of ammonia. The ammonia comes from a line with saturated vapor
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

592.92 x 10³ Pa

Explanation:

Mole of ammonia required = 10 g / 17 =0 .588 moles

We shall have to find pressure of .588 moles of ammonia at 30 degree having volume of 2.5 x 10⁻³ m³. We can calculate it as follows .

From the relation

PV = nRT

P x 2.5 x 10⁻³ =  .588 x 8.32 x ( 273 + 30 )

P = 592.92 x 10³ Pa

What is the magnitude of the momentum of a 3400 kg airplane traveling at a speed of 450 miles per hour?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of momentum of the airplane is 6.83\times 10^5\ kg-m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the airplane, m = 3400 kg

Speed of the airplane, v = 450 miles per hour

Since, 1 mile per hour = 0.44704 m/s

v = 201.16 m/s

We need to find the magnitude of momentum of the airplane. It is given by the product of mas and velocity such that,

p=mv

p=3400\ kg\times 201.16 \ m/s

p=683944\ kg-m/s

or

p=6.83\times 10^5\ kg-m/s

So, the magnitude of momentum of the airplane is 6.83\times 10^5\ kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
