A war wolf is a device used during the middle ages to assault fortifications with large rocks. A simple trebuchet is constructed

with a large, stiff 4.1 m rod (assume it has negligible mass) with a heavy object of mass 52 kg and 14 cm from the axle around which the device pivots and a cup on the far end that holds the rock. The war wolf is loaded when it is in a horizontal position, and the rock is projected horizontally when after it has rotated to a vertical position. If the rock has a mass of 123 g, how fast (linear speed) does it move when launched?

Answer:v=41.23 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of heavy object m_1=52 kg

distance of m_1 from the axle r_1=14 cm

mass of rock m_2=123 gm

Length of rod =4.1 m

distance of m_2 from axle r_2=4.1-0.14=3.96 m

Net torque acting is

T_{net}=m_1gr_1-m_2gr_2

T_{net}=52\times 0.14\times g-0.123\times 3.96\times g

T_{net}=6.793\times 9.8

T_{net}=66.57 N-m

Work done by T_{net} is converted to rock kinetic Energy

thus

T_{net}\times \theta =\frac{mv^2}{2}

Where \theta =angle\ turned =\frac{\pi }{2}

v= velocity\ at\ launch

66.57\times \frac{\pi }{2}=\frac{0.123\times v^2}{2}

v^2=66.57\times \pi

v=\sqrt{1700.511}

v=41.23 m/s

What is the angle of deviation in a plane mirror at normal incidence?​
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The deviation of a mirror is equal to twice the angle of incidence.The total angle between the straight-line path and the reflected ray is twice the angle of incidence. This is called the deviation of the light and measures the angle at which the light has strayed from its initial straight-line path.

Find the minor measurement of the vernier scale by taking 49, 1mm divisions of the main scale and dividing it into 50 vernier di
olga nikolaevna [1]
<h2>♨ANSWER♥</h2>

length of V-50 = 49mm

length of V-1 = 49/50mm

= 0.98mm

so,

minor measurement = (M-1) - (V-1)

= 1mm -0.98mm

= 0.02mm

☆ Therefore,

The minor measurement of the vernier scale is 0.02mm.

a bus starting from rest moves with a uniform acceleration of 0.1 metre per second square for 2 minutes find the speed acquired
blondinia [14]
S ?
U 0m/s
V ?
A 0.1m/s^2
T 2min (120 sec)

S=ut+0.5at^2
S=0(120 sec)+0.5(0.1m/s^2)(120 sec)^2
S=720m

Distance double 720m*2=1440m

V^2=u^2+2as
V^2=(0)^2+2(0.1 m/s^2)(1440m)
V^2=288
V= square root of 288=12 root 2=16.97 to 2 decimal places
