A stone is dropped at t = 0. A second stone, with 6 times the mass of the first, is dropped from the same point at t = 160 ms. (

a) How far below the release point is the center of mass of the two stones at t = 290 ms? (Neither stone has yet reached the ground.) (b) How fast is the center of mass of the two-stone system moving at that time?

Answer with Explanation:

Let mass of one stone=m_1=m

Mass of second stone,m'=6 m

a.t_1=290 ms=290\times 10^{-3} s

1 ms=10^{-3} s

t=160 ms=160\times 10^{-3} s

t'=t-t_1=290\times 10^{-3}-160\times 10^{-3}=130\times 10^{-3} s

Initial velocity=u_1=u'=0

y_1=\frac{1}{2} gt^2_1=\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(290\times 10^{-3})^2=0.412 m

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

y'=\frac{1}{2}gt'^2=\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(130\times 10^{-3})^2=0.0828 m

Center of mass=\frac{m_1y_1+m'y'}{m_1+m'}

Center of mass=\frac{m(0.412)+6m(0.0828)}{m+6m}=\frac{m(0.412+6(0.0828)}{7m}=0.13 m

b.v=u+gt

Using the formula

v_1=9.8(290\times 10^{-3})=2.8m/s

v'=9.8(130\times 10^{-3})=1.27m/s

Velocity of center of mass=\frac{m_1v_1+m'v'}{m_1+m'}

Velocity of center of mass=\frac{m(2.8)+6m(1.27)}{m+6m}=\frac{m(2.8+6(1.27)}{7m}=1.49 m/s

Traveling in circle requires a net force
seraphim [82]

Answer:

<u><em>Circular motion requires a net inward or "centripetal" force. Without a net centripetal force, an object cannot travel in circular motion. In fact, if the forces are balanced, then an object in motion continues in motion in a straight line at constant speed.</em></u>

In Example 2.7, we investigated a jet landing on an aircraft carrier. In a later maneuver, the jet comes in for a landing on sol
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

a) 20 seconds

b) No.

Explanation:

t = Time taken for jet to stop

u = Initial velocity = 100 m/s (given in the question)

v = Final velocity = 0 (because the jet will stop at the end)

s = Displacement of the jet (Distance between the moment the jet touches the ground to the point the point it stops)

a = Acceleration = -5.00 m/s² (slowing down, so it is negative)

a) Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-100}{-5}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s

The time required for the plane to slow down from the moment it touches the ground is 20 seconds.

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=100\times 20+\frac{1}{2}\times -5\times 20^2\\\Rightarrow s=1000\ m

The distance it requires for the jet to stop is 1000 m so in a small tropical island airport where the runway is 0.800 km long the plane would not be able to land. The runway needs to be atleast 1000 m long here the runway on the island is 1000-800 = 200 m short.

Scientists can use spectral analysis of stars to determine which of the following?
RoseWind [281]
I do believe all of these but core elements can be determined by spectroscopy which includes the use of electromagnetic radiation. Both the surface and core temperature can be measured using light. Surface elements can be found because the absorption lines of different elements in the spectra of the star, but I haven't heard anything about using spectral analysis for core elements.
