A trick shot archer shoots an arrow with a velocity of 30.0 m/s at an angle of 20.0 degrees with respect to the horizontal. An a

ssistant standing on the level ground 30.0 m downrange from the launch point throws an apple straight up with the minimum initial speed necessary to meet the path of the arrow. What is the initial speed of the apple and at what time after the arrow is launched should the apple be thrown so that the arrow hits the apple?

Answer:

u'=10.259\ m.s^{-1} is the initial velocity of tossing the apple.

the apple should be tossed after \Delta t=0.0173\ s

Explanation:

Given:

  • velocity of arrow in projectile, v=30\ m.s^{-1}
  • angle of projectile from the horizontal, \theta=20^{\circ}
  • distance of the point of tossing up of an apple, d=30\ m

<u>Now the horizontal component of velocity:</u>

v_x=v\ cos\ \theta

v_x=30\times cos\ 20^{\circ}

v_x=28.191\ m.s^{-1}

<u>The vertical component of the velocity:</u>

v_y=v.sin\ \theta

v_y=30\times sin\ 20^{\circ}

v_y=10.261\ m.s^{-1}

<u>Time taken by the projectile to travel the distance of 30 m:</u>

t=\frac{d}{v_x}

t=\frac{30}{28.191}

t=1.0642\ s

<u>Vertical position of the projectile at this time:</u>

h=v_y.t-\frac{1}{2}g.t^2

h=10.261\times 1.0642-\frac{1}{2} \times 9.8\times 1.0642^2

h=5.3701\ m

<u>Now this height should be the maximum height of the tossed apple where its velocity becomes zero.</u>

v'^2=u'^2-2g.h

0^2=u'^2-2\times 9.8\times 5.3701

u'=10.259\ m.s^{-1} is the initial velocity of tossing the apple.

<u>Time taken to reach this height:</u>

v'=u'-g.t'

0=10.259-9.8\times t'

t'=1.0469\ s

<u>We observe that </u>t>t'<u> hence the time after the launch of the projectile after which the apple should be tossed is:</u>

\Delta t=t-t'

\Delta t=1.0642-1.0469

\Delta t=0.0173\ s

SIZIF [17.4K]
From the description of the substances, the best answer would be option A. Substance D would generally function as a solvent because it has the largest composition in a solution. A solvent in a solution has the highest percent composition among all components involved. Having a composition of more than 50% would mean that a substance is the solvent.

In 11.8 s, 151 bullets strike and embed themselves in a wall. The bullets strike the wall perpendicularly. Each bullet has a mas
Aneli [31]

Answer:

a. ΔP/Δt =  42.6 N

b. F = 42.6 N

c. P = 142042.4 Pa = 1.42 KPa

Explanation:

a.

First, we find the change in momentum of the bullets. For one bullet:

ΔP = m(Vf - Vi)

where,

ΔP = Change in Momentum = ?

m = mass of bullet = 5 x 10⁻³ kg

Vf = Final Speed = 1110 m/s

Vi = Initial Speed = 0 m/s (Since bullets are initially at rest)

Therefore,

ΔP = (3 x 10⁻³ kg)(1110 m/s - 0 m/s)

ΔP = 3.33 N.s

For 151 bullets:

ΔP = (151)(3.33 N.s)

ΔP = 502.83 N.s

Now, dividing this by time interval, Δt = 11.8 s

ΔP/Δt = 502.83 N.s/ 11.8 s

<u>ΔP/Δt =  42.6 N</u>

<u></u>

b.

According to Newton's Second Law, the force is equal to rate of change of linear momentum:

Average Force = F = ΔP/Δt

<u>F = 42.6 N</u>

<u></u>

c.

The pressure is given by:

Average Pressure = P = Average Force/Area

P = 42.6 N/ 3 x 10⁻⁴ m²

<u>P = 142042.4 Pa = 1.42 KPa</u>

To understand how to find the velocities of objects after a collision.
trasher [3.6K]

There are some information missing on Part D: Let the mass of object 1 be m and the mass of object 2 be 3m. If the collision is perfectly inelastic, what are the velocities of the two objects after the collision? Give the velocity v_1 of object one, followed by object v_2 of object two, separated by a comma. Express each velocity in terms of v.

Answer: Part A: v_1 = 0; v_2 = v

Part B: v_1 = v_2 = \frac{v}{2}

Part C: v_1 = \frac{v}{3}; v_2 = \frac{4v}{3}

Part D: v_1 = v_2 = \frac{v}{4}

Explanation: In elastic collisions, there no loss of kinetic energy and momentum is conserved. Momentum is determined as p = m.v and kinetic energy as K = \frac{1}{2}m.v^{2}

Conserved means that the amount of initial momentum is equal to the amount of final momentum:

m_{1}.v_{1i} + m_{2}.v_{2i} = m_{1}.v_{1f} + m_{2}.v_{2f}

No loss of energy means that initial kinietc energy is the same as the final kinetic energy:

\frac{1}{2}(m_{1}.v_{1i} + m_{2}.v_{2i}) = \frac{1}{2} (m_{1}.v_{1f} + m_{2}.v_{2f}  )

To determine the final velocities of each object, there are 2 variables and two equations, so working those equations, the result is:

v_{2f} = \frac{2.m_{1} } {m_{1} + m_{2} }.v_{1i}  + \frac{(m_{2} - m_{1})}{m_{1} + m_{2} } . v_{2i}

v_{1f} = \frac{m_{2} - m_{1} }{m_{1} + m_{2} } . v_{1i} + \frac{2.m_{2} }{m_{1} + m_{2} } .v_{2i}

For all the collisions, object 2 is static, i.e. v_{2i} = 0

<u>Part A</u>: Both objects have the same mass (m), v_{1i} = v and collision is elastic:

v_1 = \frac{m_{2} - m_{1}}{m_{1} + m_{2} } . v_{1i}

v_1 = 0

v_2 = \frac{2.m_{1} }{m_{1} + m_{2}}.v_{1i}

v_2 = \frac{2.m}{m+m}.v

v_2 = v

When the masses are the same and there is an object at rest, the object in movement stops and the object at rest has the same same velocity as the object who hit it.

<u>Part B</u>: Same mass but collision is inelastic: An inelastic collision means that after it happens, the two objects has the same final velocity, then:

m_{1}.v_{1i} + m_{2}.v_{2i} = m_{1}.v_{1f} + m_{2}.v_{2f}

m_{1}.v_{1i} = (m_{1}+m_{2}).v_{f}

v_{f} =  \frac{m_{1}.v_{1i}}{m_{1} + m_{2} }

v_1 = v_2 = \frac{m.v}{m+m}

v_1 = v_2 = \frac{v}{2}

<u>Part C:</u> Object 1 is 2m, object 2 is m and elastic collision:

v_1 = \frac{m_{2} - m_{1}}{m_{1} + m_{2} } . v_{1i}

v_1 = \frac{2m - m}{2m + m } . v

v_1 = \frac{v}{3}

v_2 = \frac{2.m_{1} }{m_{1} + m_{2}}.v_{1i}

v_2 = \frac{2.2m}{2m+m}.v

v_2 = \frac{4v}{3}

<u>Part D</u>: Object 1 is m, object is 3m and collision is inelastic:

v_1 = v_2 = v_{f} =  \frac{m_{1}.v_{1i}}{m_{1} + m_{2} }

v_1 = v_2 = \frac{m}{m+3m}.v

v_1 = v_2 = \frac{v}{4}
