The Great Sandini is a 60 kg circus performer who is shot from a cannon (actually a spring gun). You don't find many men of his
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

22m/s

Explanation:

Mass, m=60 kg

Force constant, k=1300N/m

Restoring force, Fx=6500 N

Average friction force, f=50 N

Length of barrel, l=5m

y=2.5 m

Initial velocity, u=0

F_x=kx

Substitute the values

6500=1300x

x=\frac{6500}{1300}=5m

Work done due to friction force

W_f=fscos\theta

We have \theta=180^{\circ}

Substitute the values

W_f=50\times 5cos180^{\circ}

W_f=-250J

Initial kinetic energy, Ki=0

Initial gravitational energy, U_{grav,1}=0\

Initial elastic potential energy

U_{el,1}=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}(1300)(5^2)

U_{el,1}=16250J

Final elastic energy,U_{el,2}=0

Final kinetic energy, K_f=\frac{1}{2}(60)v^2=30v^2

Final gravitational energy, U_{grav,2}=mgh=60\times 9.8\times 2.5

Final gravitational energy, U_{grav,2}=1470J

Using work-energy theorem

K_i+U_{grav,1}+U_{el,1}+W_f=K_f+U_{grav,2}+U_{el,2}

Substitute the values

0+0+16250-250=30v^2+1470+0

16000-1470=30v^2

14530=30v^2

v^2=\frac{14530}{30}

v=\sqrt{\frac{14530}{30}}

v=22m/s

The momentum of an electron is 1.75 times larger than the value computed non-relativistically. What is the speed of the electron
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

<em>Speed of the electron is 2.46 x 10^8 m/s</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

momentum of the electron before relativistic effect = M_{0} V

where M_{0} is the rest mass of the electron

V is the velocity of the electron.

under relativistic effect, the mass increases.

under relativistic effect, the new mass M will be

M = M_{0}/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2}  }

where

\beta = V/c

c  is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

V is the speed with which the electron travels.

The new momentum will therefore be

==> M_{0}V/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2}  }

It is stated that the relativistic momentum is 1.75 times the non-relativistic momentum. Equating, we have

1.75M_{0} V = M_{0}V/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2}  }

the equation reduces to

1.75 = 1/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2}  }

square both sides of the equation, we have

3.0625 = 1/(1 - \beta ^{2} )

3.0625 - 3.0625\beta ^{2} = 1

2.0625 = 3.0625\beta ^{2}

\beta ^{2} = 0.67

β = 0.819

substitute for  \beta = V/c

V/c = 0.819

V = c x 0.819

V = 3 x 10^8 x 0.819 = <em>2.46 x 10^8 m/s</em>

What is an inertial reference frame?
Gennadij [26K]
<h2>Answer: A system in which Newton's Laws are fulfilled</h2>

An inertial reference system is a reference system in which the principle of inertia is fulfilled, which is one of Newton's laws:

<em>"For a body to have acceleration, an external force must act on it" </em>

In addition, the other Newton's laws of movement are fulfilled.

Therefore, the variation of the linear momentum of the system is equal to the actual forces on the system.
