Suppose students experiment with the tube and a variety of darts. Some darts have higher masses than others but are the same aer

odynamic shape. Assume air resistance is negligible for the darts. Should the students use a dart with large mass or small mass to launch the dart the farthest distance possible? State which dart will travel the farthest distance and explain your reasoning without manipulating equations.

Answer:

The dart with the small mass will travel the farthest distance.

Explanation:

Acceleration is proportional to force times mass, and inertia is proportional to mass. Inertia is the reluctance of a moving body to stop, and a stationary body to start moving (inertia increses with mass). Assuming they both have the same aerodynamic design, and that they are both launched with the same force applied for the same time duration, the dart with less small mass will accelerate faster than the big mass dart. From this we can see that the small dart will have covered a longer distance before the effect of the force stops, when compared to the more massive dart.

How much work is required to accelerate a proton from rest up to a speed of 0.993 c? Express your answer with the appropriate un
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

(a). The work done is 7001 MeV.

(b). The momentum of this proton is 4.20\times10^{8}\ kg-m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 0.993 c

We need to calculate the work done

Using work energy theorem

The work done is equal to the kinetic energy relative to the proton

W=K.E

W=\dfrac{m_{p}c^2}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}-m_{p}c^2

Put the value into the formula

W=\dfrac{1.67\times10^{-27}\times(3\times10^{8})^2}{\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{0.993c}{c})^2}}-1.67\times10^{-27}\times(3\times10^{8})^2

W=\dfrac{1.67\times10^{-27}\times(3\times10^{8})^2}{\sqrt{1-(0.993)^2}}-1.67\times10^{-27}\times(3\times10^{8})^2

W=1.122\times10^{-9}\ J

W=7001\ MeV

(b). We need to calculate  the momentum of this proton

Using formula of momentum

p=\dfrac{m_{0}v}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}

Put the value into the formula

p=\dfrac{1.67\times10^{-27}\times0.993c}{\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{0.993c}{c})^2}}

p=\dfrac{1.67\times10^{-27}\times0.993c}{\sqrt{1-(0.993)^2}}

p=1.404\times10^{-26}c

p=4.20\times10^{8}\ kg-m/s

Hence, (a). The work done is 7001 MeV.

(b). The momentum of this proton is 4.20\times10^{8}\ kg-m/s.

An object with mass 100 kg moved in outer space. When it was at location <8, -30, -4> its speed was 5.5 m/s. A single cons
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

v = ( 6.41 i^ + 8.43 j^ + 2.63 k^ ) m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using the kinematic relations, we have a three-dimensional movement, but we can work as three one-dimensional movements where the only parameter in common is time (a scalar).

X axis.

They indicate the initial position x = 8 m, its initial velocity v₀ = 5.5 m / s, the force Fx₁ = 220 N x₁ = 14 m, now the force changes to Fx₂ = 100 N up to the point xf = 17 m. The final speed is wondered.

As this movement is in three dimensions we must find the projection of the initial velocity in each axis, for this we can use trigonometry

the angle fi is with respect to the in z and the angle theta with respect to the x axis.

               sin φ = z / r

                Cos φ = r_p / r

               z = r sin φ

               r_p = r cos φ

the modulus of the vector r can be found with the Pythagorean theorem

               r² = (x-x₀) ² + (y-y₀) ² + (z-z₀) ²

               r² = (14-8) 2 + (-21 + 30) 2+ (-7 +4) 2

               r = √126

               r = 11.23 m

Let's find the angle with respect to the z axis (φfi)

                φ = sin⁻¹ z / r

                φ = sin⁻¹ ( \frac{-7+4}{11.23} )

                φ = 15.5º

Let's find the projection of the position vector (r_p)

                r_p = r cos φ

                r_p = 11.23 cos 15.5

                r_p = 10.82 m

This vector is in the xy plane, so we can use trigonometry to find the angle with respect to the x axis.

                 cos θ = x / r_p

                 θ = cos⁻¹ x / r_p

                 θ = cos⁻¹ ( \frac{14-8}{10.82})  

                 θ = 56.3º

taking the angles we can decompose the initial velocity.

               sin φ = v_z / v₀

               cos φ = v_p / v₀

               v_z = v₀ sin φ

               v_z = 5.5 sin 15.5 = 1.47 m / z

               v_p = vo cos φ

               v_p = 5.5 cos 15.5 = 5.30 m / s

                 

               cos θ = vₓ / v_p

                sin θ = v_y / v_p

                vₓ = v_p cos θ

                v_y = v_p sin θ

                vₓ = 5.30 cos 56.3 = 2.94 m / s

                v_y = 5.30 sin 56.3 = 4.41 m / s

 

                 

we already have the components of the initial velocity

                v₀ = (2.94 i ^ + 4.41 j ^ + 1.47 k ^) m / s

let's find the acceleration on this axis (ax1) using Newton's second law

                Fₓx = m aₓ₁

                aₓ₁ = Fₓ / m

                aₓ₁ = 220/100

                aₓ₁ = 2.20 m / s²

Let's look for the velocity at the end of this interval (vx1)

Let's be careful if the initial velocity and they relate it has the same sense it must be added, but if the velocity and acceleration have the opposite direction it must be subtracted.

                 vₓ₁² = v₀ₓ² + 2 aₓ₁ (x₁-x₀)

                 

let's calculate

                 vₓ₁² = 2.94² + 2 2.20 (14-8)

                 vₓ₁ = √35.04

                 vₓ₁ = 5.92 m / s

to the second interval

they relate it to xf

                   aₓ₂ = Fₓ₂ / m

                   aₓ₂ = 100/100

                   aₓ₂ = 1 m / s²

final speed

                    v_{xf}²  = vₓ₁² + 2 aₓ₂ (x_f- x₁)

                    v_{xf}² = 5.92² + 2 1 (17-14)

                    v_{xf} =√41.05

                    v_{xf} = 6.41 m / s

We carry out the same calculation for each of the other axes.

Axis y

acceleration (a_{y1})

                      a_{y1} = F_y / m

                      a_{y1} = 460/100

                      a_[y1} = 4.60 m / s²

the velocity at the end of the interval (v_{y1})

                      v_{y1}² = v_{oy}² + 2 a_{y1{ (y₁ -y₀)

                      v_{y1}2 = 4.41² + 2 4.60 (-21 + 30)

                      v_{y1} = √102.25

                       v_{y1} = 10.11 m / s

second interval

acceleration (a_{y2})

                      a_{y2} = F_{y2} / m

                      a_{y2} = 260/100

                      a_{y2} = 2.60 m / s2

final speed

                     v_{yf}² = v_{y1}² + 2 a_{y2} (y₂ -y₁)

                     v_{yf}² = 10.11² + 2 2.60 (-27 + 21)

                      v_{yf} = √ 71.01

                      v_{yf} = 8.43 m / s

here there is an inconsistency in the problem if the body is at y₁ = -27m and passes the position y_f = -21 m with the relationship it must be contrary to the velocity

z axis

 

first interval, relate (a_{z1})

                      a_{z1} = F_{z1} / m

                      a_{z1} = -200/100

                      a_{z1} = -2 m / s

the negative sign indicates that the acceleration is the negative direction of the z axis

the speed at the end of the interval

                    v_{z1}² = v_{zo)² + 2 a_{z1} (z₁-z₀)

                    v_{z1}² = 1.47² + 2 (-2) (-7 + 4)

                    v_{z1} = √14.16

                    v_{z1} = -3.76 m / s

second interval, acceleration (a_{z2})

                    a_{z2} = F_{z2} / m

                    a_{z2} = 210/100

                    a_{z2} = 2.10 m / s2

final speed

                    v_{fz}² = v_{z1}² - 2 a_{z2} | z_f-z₁)

                    v_{fz}² = 3.14² - 2 2.10 (-3 + 7)

                     v_{fz} = √6.94

                     v_{fz} = 2.63 m / s

speed is     v = ( 6.41 i^ + 8.43 j^ + 2.63 k^ ) m/s

Starting from rest, a boulder rolls down a hill with constant acceleration and travels 3.00m during the first second.
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

a) 9.00 m b) 6.00 m/s  c) 12.00 m/s

Explanation:

a) If the acceleration is constant, and we know that the displacement during the first second was 3.00 m, as the boulder (assumed that we can treat it as a point mass) started from rest, we can say the following:

Δx = \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} = 3.00 m

As t = 1 s, replacing in the expression above, and solving for a, we have:

a = \frac{2*3.00m}{1s2} = 6.00 m/s²

In order to know how far it travels during the second second, we need to know the value of the speed after the first second, as it is the initial velocity when the second second begins:

vf = v₀ + a*t ⇒ vf = 0 + 6 m/s²*1s = 6.00 m/s

The total displacement, during the second second, will be as follows:

Δx = v₀*t + \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} = 6.00m/s*1s +\frac{1}{2}*6.00 m/s2*1s^{2}  = 9.00 m

⇒ Δx = 9.00 m

b) At the end of the first second, the final speed can be obtained as follows:

vf = v₀ + a*t ⇒ vf = 0 + 6 m/s²*1s = 6.00 m/s

c) At the end of the second second, the final speed can be obtained as follows:

vf = v₀ + a*t ⇒ vf = 0 + 6 m/s²*2s = 12.00 m/s
