Complete Question:

A pilot drops a package from a plane flying horizontally at a constant speed. Neglecting air resistance, when the package hits the ground the horizontal location of the plane will

A. be behind the package.

B. be over the package.

C. be in front of the package.

D. depend on the speed of the plane when the package was released.

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

As no other horizontal forces are present, due to the horizontal movement and the vertical one are independent each other (as they are perpendicular), the plane and the package continue moving horizontally at the same speed, so when the package hits the ground (due to the action of gravity in the vertical direction only) the plane will be exactly over the package.

If the intensity of a loud car horn is 0.005 W/m^2 when you are 2 meters away from the source. Calculate the sound intensity lev
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

(c) 97 dB sound intensity level

Explanation:

We have given the intensity of the loud car horn I=0.005w/m^2

We know that I_O=10^{-12}w/m^2

Now the sound intensity level is given by \beta =10log\frac{I}{I_0}=10log\frac{0.005}{10^{-12}}=96.98dB , which is nearly equal to 97

So the sound intensity level will be 97 dB

So option (c) will be the correct option

2.

Given: Dd

2 = 600 m [S]

Required: Dd

T is 400 m.

Statement: Relative to your starting point at your home, your

total displacement is 400 m [S].

The 1.0-kg collar slides freely on the fixed circular rod. Calculate the velocity v of the collar as it hits the stop at B if it
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

6.21 m/s

Explanation:

Using work energy equation then

U_{1-2}=T_B- T_A\\58d-mgh=0.5m(v_b^{2}-v_a^{2})

where d is displacement from initial to final position, v is velocity and subscripts a and b are position A and B respectively, m is mass of collar, g is acceleration due to gravity

Substituting 1 Kg for m, 0.4m for h, v_a as 0, 9.81 for g then

58(\sqrt{0.4^{2}+0.3^{2}}-0.1)-(1\times 9.81\times 0.4)=0.5\times 1\times (v_b^{2}-v_a^{2})\\19.276=0.5\times 1v_b^{2}\\v_b=6.209025688 m/s\approx 6.21 m/s

The earth’s orbit around the sun is elliptical. What does this word mean?.
omeli [17]

Answer:

An elliptical orbit is the revolving of one object around another in an oval-shaped path called an ellipse. The planets in the solar system orbit the sun in elliptical orbits. Many satellites orbit the Earth in elliptical orbits as does the moon.
