Incomplete question. I inferred you want access to the full question.

Explanation:

A rural mail carrier is driving slowly, putting mail in mailboxes near the road. He overshoots one mailbox, stops, shifts into reverse, and then backs up until he is at the right spot. The velocity graph given below represents his motion.

a. draw the mail carrier's position vs time graph. Assume that x = 0 m at t = 0 s.

b. what is the position of the mailbox?

A father racing his son has 1/3 the kinetic energy of the son, who has 1/4 the mass of the father. The father speeds up by 1.5 m

Feliz [49]

Explanation:

Let the speeds of father and son are $v_f\ and\ v_s$ . The kinetic energies of father and son are $K_f\ and\ K_s$ . The mass of father and son are $m_f\ and\ m_s$

(a) According to given conditions, $K_f=\dfrac{1}{3}K_s$

And $m_s=\dfrac{1}{4}m_f$

Kinetic energy of father is given by :

$K_f=\dfrac{1}{2}m_fv_f^2$ .............(1)

Kinetic energy of son is given by :

$K_s=\dfrac{1}{2}m_sv_s^2$ ...........(2)

From equation (1), (2) we get :

$\dfrac{v_f^2}{v_s^2}=\dfrac{1}{12}$ ..............(3)

If the speed of father is speed up by 1.5 m/s, so the ratio of kinetic energies is given by :

$\dfrac{K_f}{K_s}=\dfrac{1/2m_f(v_f+1.5)^2}{1/2m_sv_s^2}$

$v_s^2=4(v_f+1.5)^2$

Using equation (3) in above equation, we get :

$v_f=\dfrac{1.5}{\sqrt3-1}=2.04\ m/s$

(b) Put the value of $v_f$ in equation (3) as :

$v_s=7.09\ m/s$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Water flows through a garden hose which is attached to a nozzle. The water flows through hose with a speed of 1.81 m/s and throu

Serggg [28]

Answer:

a) 17.086m

b) 0.1671 m

Explanation:

Given data: speed of water through the hose = 1.81 m/s

through the nozzle = 18.3 m/s

We know that maximum height of an object with upward velocity v is given by,

a) H = v^2/2g

where H is the maximum height water emerges

= 18.3^2/(2×9.8) = 17.086 m answer

b) Again,

H = v^2/2g

= 1.81^2/(2×9.8) = 0.1671 m

A thin ring of radius 73 cm carries a positive charge of 610 nC uniformly distributed over it. A point charge q is placed at the

kow [346]

Answer:

q = - 93.334 nC

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

Radius of ring 73 cm

charge on ring 610 nC

ELECTRIC FIELD p FROM CENTRE IS AT 70 CM

E = 2000 N/C

Electric field due tor ring is guiven as

$E = \frac{KQx}{[x^2+ R^2]^{3/2}}$

$E = \frac{9\time 10^9 \times 610\times 10^[-9} 0.70}{(0.70^2 + 0.73^2)^{3/2}}$

E1 = 3714.672 N/C

electric field due to point charge q

$E =\frac[kq}{x^2}$

$E = \frac{9\times 10^9 \times q}{0.70^2}$

$E2 = 1.837\times 10^{10}\times q$

now the eelctric charge at point P is

E = E1 + E2 $2000 = 3714.672 + 1.837\times 10[10} \times q$

solving for q

q = - 93.334 nC
