-- Put the rod into the freezer for a while. As it cools,
it contracts (gets smaller) slightly.
-- Put the cylinder into hot hot water for a while. As it heats,
it expands (gets bigger) slightly.
-- Bring the rod and the cylinder togther quickly, before the
rod has a chance to warm up or the cylinder has a chance
to cool off.
-- I bet it'll fit now.
-- But be careful . . . get the rod exactly where you want it as fast
as you can. Once both pieces come back to the same temperature,
and the rod expands a little and the cylinder contracts a little, the fit
will be so tight that you'll probably never get them apart again, or even
move the rod.
Icy/Snowy roads have less friction than normal roads. This means that the wheels are less likely to stay positioned because of traction, and you will spin out of control
<span>Answer:
Assuming that I understand the geometry correctly, the combine package-rocket will move off the cliff with only a horizontal velocity component. The package will then fall under gravity traversing the height of the cliff (h) in a time T given by
h = 0.5*g*T^2
However, the speed of the package-rocket system must be sufficient to cross the river in that time
v2 = L/T
Conservation of momentum says that
m1*v1 = (m1 + m2)*v2
where m1 is the mass of the rocket, v1 is the speed of the rocket, m2 is the mass of the package, and v2 is the speed of the package-rocket system.
Expressing v2 in terms of v1
v2 = m1*v1/(m1 + m2)
and then expressing the time in terms of v1
T = (m1 + m2)*L/(m1*v1)
substituting T in the first expression
h = 0.5*g*(m1 + m2)^2*L^2/(m1*v1)^2
solving for v1, the speed before impact is given by
v1 = sqrt(0.5*g/h)*(m1 + m2)*L/m1</span>
Answer:
Catapult on the ground: Normal, gravity
Catapult (I'm assuming launching marshmallow): Reaction of Force Applied
Marshmallow: Force Applied
Explanation:
This is the forces that act on a stationary object and a launched object. The catapult may also experience a force friction if your teacher is taking a more practical sense.
