A rocket car on a horizontal rail has an initial mass of 2500 kg and an additional fuel mass of 1000 kg. At time t0 the rocket m

otor is ignited and the rocket burns fuel at a rate of 95 kg/s. The exit speed of the exhaust gas relative to the rocket is 2900 m/s. Neglecting drag and friction forces, determine the acceleration and the velocity of the car at time t = 10 s. Plot the acceleration and velocity from time t0 to t = 10 s.

Answer: Acceleration of the car at time = 10 sec is 108 m/s^{2} and velocity of the car at time t = 10 sec is 918.34 m/s.

Explanation:

The expression used will be as follows.

M\frac{dv}{dt} = u\frac{dM}{dt}

\int_{t_{o}}^{t_{f}} \frac{dv}{dt} dt = u\int_{t_{o}}^{t_{f}} \frac{1}{M} \frac{dM}{dt} dt

       = u\int_{M_{o}}^{M_{f}} \frac{dM}{M}

v_{f} - v_{o} = u ln \frac{M_{f}}{M_{o}}

v_{o} = 0

As, v_{f} = u ln (\frac{M_{f}}{M_{o}})

u = -2900 m/s

M_{f} = M_{o} - m \times t_{f}

           = 2500 kg + 1000 kg - 95 kg \times t_{f}s

           = (3500 - 95t_{f})s

v_{f} = -2900 ln(\frac{3500 - 95 t_{f}}{3500}) m/s

Also, we know that

     a = \frac{dv_{f}}{dt_{f}} = \frac{u}{M} \frac{dM}{dt}

        = \frac{u}{3500 - 95 t} \times (-95) m/s^{2}

        = \frac{95 \times 2900}{3500 - 95t} m/s^{2}

At t = 10 sec,

v_{f} = 918.34 m/s

and,   a = 108 m/s^{2}

Consider two diffraction gratings with the same slit separation. The only difference between the two gratings is that one gratin
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

True The grid with more slits gives more angle separation increases

True. The grating with 10 slits produces better-defined (narrower) peaks

Explanation:

Such a system can be seen as a diffraction network in this case with different number of lines per unit length, the expression for the constructive interference of a diffraction network is

      d sin θ = m λ

where d is the distance between slits or lines, m the order of diffraction and λ the wavelength.

For network with 5 slits

      d = 1/5 = 0.2

For the network with 10 slits

      d = 1/10 = 0.1

let's calculate the separation (teat) for each one

      θ = sin⁻¹ (m λ / d)

for 5 slits

     θ₅ = sin⁻¹ (m λ 5)

for 10 slits

     θ₁₀ = sin⁻¹ (m λ 10)

we can appreciate that for more slits the angle increases

the intensity of a series of slits is

       I = I₀ sin²2 (N d/2) / sin² d/2)

when there are more slits (N) the peaks have greater intensity and are more acute (half width decreases)

let's analyze the claims

False

True The grid with more slits gives more angle separation increases

False

True The expression for the intensity of the diffraction peaks the intensity of the peaks increases with the number of slits as well as their spectral width decreases

False

A projectile is fired from the ground at a velocity of 30.0 m/s, 35.0 º from the horizontal. What is the maximum height the proj
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Vy = V sin theta = 30 * ,574 = 17.2 m/s

t1 = 17.2 / 9.8 = 1.76 sec to reach max height

Max height = 17.2 * 1.76 - 1/2 * 4.9 * 1.76^2 = 15.1 m

H = V t - 1/2 g t^2 = 1.2 * 9.8 * 1.76^2 = 15.1 m

Time to fall from zero speed to ground = rise time = 1.76 sec

Vx = V cos 35 = 24.6 m / sec     horizontal speed

Time in air = 1.76 * 2 = 3.52 sec before returning to ground

S = 24.6 * 3.52 = 86.6 m

What causes dispersion of light?​
AysviL [449]
Dispersion occurs due to the different degrees of refraction experienced by different colours of light. Light of different colours may travel with the same speed in a vacuum, but they travel at different speeds in some refracting medium. The speed of violet light is relatively lower than that of red light.
