Answer:
The shell hit at a distance of 1.9 x 10² km
The time of flight of the shell was 5.3 x 10² s
Explanation:
The position of the shell is given by the vector "r":
r = (x0 + v0 * t * cos α ; y0 + v0 * t * sin α + 1/2 g t²)
where:
x0 = initial horizontal position
v0 = magnitude of the initial velocity
t = time
α = launching angle
y0 = initial vertical position
g = acceleration of gravity
When the shell hit, the vertical component (ry) of the vector position r is 0. See figure.
Then:
ry = 0 = y0 + v0 * t * sin α + 1/2 g t²
Since the gun is at the center of our system of reference, y0 and x0 = 0
0 = t (v0 sin α + 1/2 g t)
t= 0 is discarded as solution
v0 sin α + 1/2 g t = 0
t = -2v0 sin α / g
t = (-2 * 2610 m/s * sin 81.9°)/ (-9.8 m/s²) = 5.3 x 10² s. This is the time of flight of the shell until it hit.
Then, the distance at which the shell hit is:
Distance = Module of r = ( x0 + v0 * t * cos α; 0) = x0 + v0 * t * cos α
Distance = 2.61 km/s * 5.3 x 10² s * cos 81.9 = 1.9 x 10² km
Answer:
P= 454.11 N
Explanation:
Since P is the only horizontal force acting on the system, it can be defined as the product of the acceleration by the total mass of the system (both cubes).
The friction force between both cubes (F) is defined as the normal force acting on the smaller cube multiplied by the coefficient of static friction. Since both cubes are subject to the same acceleration:
In order for the small cube to not slide down, the friction force must equal the weight of the small cube:
The smallest magnitude that P can have in order to keep the small cube from sliding downward is 454.11 N
