If the car went 30 km west in 25 min. and then 40 km east in 35 min., what would be its total displacement?

A 59 kg physics student is riding her 220 kg Harley at 12 m/s when she has a head-on collision with a 2.1 kg pigeon flying the o

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using conservation of momentum

$m_1=59+220=279kg$

$m_2=2.1kg$

$U_1=12m/s$

$U_2=-44m/s$

$m_1U_1+m_2U_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\\frac{278\times 12-2.1\times 44}{279+2.1}=V\\\\V=11.58m/s$

The tape in a videotape cassette has a total

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

$w=19.76 \ rad/s$

Explanation:

<u>Circular Motion </u>

Suppose there is an object describing a circle of radius r around a fixed point. If the relation between the angle of rotation by the time taken is constant, then the angular speed is also constant. If that relation increases or decreases at a constant rate, the angular speed is given by:

$w=w_o+\alpha \ t$

Where $\alpha$ is the angular acceleration and t is the time. If the object was instantly released from the circular path, it would have a tangent speed of:

$\displaystyle v_t=w.r$

We have two reels: one loaded with the tape to play and the other one empty and starting to fill with tape. They both rotate at different angular speeds, one is increasing and the other is decreasing as the tape goes from one to the other. We'll assume the tangent speed is constant for both (so the tape can play correctly). Let's call $w_1$ the angular speed of the loaded reel and $w_2$ that from the empty reel. We have

$w_1=w_{o1}+\alpha_1 \ t$

$w_2=w_{o2}+\alpha_2 \ t$

If $r_f=35\ mm=0.035\ m$ is the radius of the reel when it's full of tape, the angular speed for the loaded reel is computed by

$\displaystyle w_{01}=\frac{v_t}{r_f}$

The tangent speed is computed by knowing the length of the tape and the time needed to fully play it.

$t=1.8\ h=1.8*3600=6480\ sec$

$\displaystyle v_t=\frac{x}{t}=\frac{249\ m}{6480\ sec}=0.0384 \ m/s$

$\displaystyle w_{01}=\frac{0.0384}{0.035}=1,098 \ rad/s$

If $r_e=10\ mm=0.001\ m$ is the radius of the reel when it's empty, the angular speed for the empty reel is computed by

$\displaystyle w_{02}=\frac{0.0384}{0.001}=38.426 \ rad/s$

The full reel goes from $w_{01}$ to $w_{02}$ in 6480 seconds, so we can compute the angular acceleration:

$\displaystyle \alpha_1=\frac{w_{02}-w_{01}}{6480}$

$\displaystyle \alpha_1=\frac{38.426-1.098}{6480}=0.00576 \ rad/sec^2$

The empty reel goes from $w_{02}$ to $w_{01}$ in 6480 seconds, so we can compute the angular acceleration:

$\displaystyle \alpha_2=\frac{1.098-38.426}{6480}=-0.00576 \ rad/sec^2$

So the equations for both reels are

$w_1=1.098+0.00576 \ t$

$w_2=38.426-0.00576 \ t$

They will be the same when

$1.098+0.00576 \ t=38.426-0.00576 \ t$

Solving for t

$\displaystyle t=\frac{38.426-1.098}{0.0115}$

$t=3240 \ sec$

The common angular speed is

$w_1=1.098+0.00576 \ 3240=19.76 \ rad/s$

$w_2=38.426-0.00576 \ 3240=19.76 \ rad/s$

They both result in the same, as expected

$\boxed{w=19.76 \ rad/s}$

sketch a graph of position vs. time for a person starting 0.4 m away and standing still. Include an explanation of your predicti

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Straight line parallel to time axis.

Explanation:

The slope of the position time graph gives the velocity.

As the man is still, that means the velocity is zero. So, the slope of the graph is zero. It is a straight line parallel to time axis.

Does magnets exert a force. explain

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Magnets exert forces and torques on each other due to the rules of electromagnetism. The forces of attraction field of magnets are due to microscopic currents of electrically charged electrons orbiting nuclei and the intrinsic magnetism of fundamental particles (such as electrons) that make up the material. Hope this helps you! :)

Allyson and Adrian have decided to connect their ankles with a bungee cord; one end is tied to each person's ankle. The cord is

Damm [24]

Complete question is;

Allyson and Adrian have decided to connect their ankles with a bungee cord; one end is tied to each person's ankle. The cord is 40 feet long, but can stretch up to 120 feet. They both start from the same location. Allyson moves 10 ft/sec and Adrian moves 9 ft/sec in the directions indicated. Adrian stops moving at time t = 5.5 sec, but Allyson keeps on moving 10 ft/sec in the indicated direction. (If a coordinate system is used, assume that the girls' starting position is located at

(x, y) = (0, 0) and that Allyson and Adrian move in the positive y and negative x directions, respectively. Let one unit equal one foot.)

Compute the length of the bungee cord at t = 7 seconds. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Answer:

Length of bungee cord = 85.734 ft

Explanation:

We are told that Adrian moves 9ft/sec. Thus, at 5.5 seconds, distance he moved is; 9 ft/sec × 5.5sec = 49.5 ft in the negative x (-x) direction. Therefore, the coordinate is (-49.5, 0).

Now, Allyson has moved 10ft/sec. Thus, at 7 seconds, distance he moved would be; 10 ft/sec x 7sec = 70 feet in the positive (+y) direction. Therefore, the coordinate is (0, 70).

Now, since they started from the origin, it means (0, 0) is a coordinate. Thus, we now have 3 coordinates which are; (0, 0), (0, 70) & (-49.5,0). These 3 coordinates would therefore combine to form a right triangle.

The hypotenuse is the distance between Allyson and Adrian.

Thus, from pythagoras theorem, we can find the distance between them which is same as the length of the cord.

Thus;

(-49.5)² + 70² = D².

D² = 2450.25 + 4900

D = √7350.25

D = 85.734 ft
