what will the stopping distance be a a 3000-kg car if -3000N of force are applied when the car is traveling 10 m/s
Inga [223]

Answer:

50 m

Explanation:

Acceleration= force/mass

3000/3000=1m/s^-2

Applying equation of motion:

V^2=U^2+2as; V is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and s is the distance covered.

0=10^2 -2*1s;

Solve for s

A harmonic wave is traveling along a rope. It is observed that the oscillator that generates the wave completes 37.0 vibrations
Goryan [66]

Answer:

0.47 m

Explanation:

N = Number of vibrations = 37

t = total time taken = 33 s

T = time period of each vibration

frequency of vibration is given as

f = \frac{N}{t} \\f = \frac{37}{33} \\f = 1.12 Hz

d = distance traveled along the rope = 421 cm = 4.21 m

t = time taken to travel the distance = 8 s

v = speed of the wave

Speed of the wave is given as

v = \frac{d}{t}\\v = \frac{4.21}{8}\\v = 0.53 ms^{-1}

\lambda = wavelength of the harmonic wave

wavelength of the harmonic wave is given as

\lambda = \frac{v}{f} \\\lambda = \frac{0.53}{1.12} \\\lambda = 0.47 m

A bowling ball with a momentum of 18kg-m/s strikes a stationary bowling pin. After the collision, the ball has a momentum of 13k
Veronika [31]

Answer:

14.98\ \text{kg m/s}

45.26^{\circ}

Explanation:

P_1 = Initial momentum of the pin = 13 kg m/s

P_i = Initial momentum of the ball = 18 kg m/s

P_2 = Momentum of the ball after hit

55^{\circ} = Angle ball makes with the horizontal after hitting the pin

\theta = Angle the pin makes with the horizotal after getting hit by the ball

Momentum in the x direction

P_i=P_1\cos55^{\circ}+P_2\cos\theta\\\Rightarrow P_2\cos\theta=P_i-P_1\cos55^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow P_2\cos\theta=18-13\cos55^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow P_2\cos\theta=10.54\ \text{kg m/s}

Momentum in the y direction

P_1\sin55=P_2\sin\theta\\\Rightarrow P_2\sin\theta=13\sin55^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow P_2\sin\theta=10.64\ \text{kg m/s}

(P_2\cos\theta)^2+(P_2\sin\theta)^2=P_2^2\\\Rightarrow P_2=\sqrt{10.54^2+10.64^2}\\\Rightarrow P_2=14.98\ \text{kg m/s}

The pin's resultant velocity is 14.98\ \text{kg m/s}

P_2\sin\theta=10.64\\\Rightarrow \theta=sin^{-1}\dfrac{10.64}{14.98}\\\Rightarrow \theta=45.26^{\circ}

The pin's resultant direction is 45.26^{\circ} below the horizontal or to the right.

child slides down a snow‑covered slope on a sled. At the top of the slope, her mother gives her a push to start her off with a s
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

θ = 13.7º

Explanation:

  • According to the work-energy theorem, the change in the kinetic energy of the combined mass of the child and the sled, is equal to the total work done on the object by external forces.
  • The external forces capable to do work on the combination of child +sled, are the friction force (opposing to the displacement), and the component of the weight parallel to the slide.
  • As this last work is just equal to the change in the gravitational potential energy (with opposite sign) , we can write the following equation:

       \Delta K + \Delta U = W_{nc} (1)

  • ΔK, is the change in kinetic energy, as follows:

       \Delta K = \frac{1}{2}* m* (v_{f} ^{2}  - v_{0} ^{2}) (2)

  • ΔU, is the change in the gravitational potential energy.
  • If we choose as our zero reference level, the bottom of the slope, the change in gravitational potential energy will be as follows:

        \Delta U = 0 - m*g*h = -m*g*d* sin\theta (3)

  • Finally, the work done for non-conservative forces, is the work done by the friction force, along the slope, as follows:

        W_{nc} = F_{f} * d * cos 180\º \\\\  = 0.2*m*g*d* cos 180\º = -0.2*m*g*d (4)

  • Replacing (2), (3), and (4) in (1), simplifying common terms, and rearranging, we have:

      \frac{1}{2}* (v_{f} ^{2}  - v_{0} ^{2}) = g*d* sin\theta -0.2*g*d

  • Replacing by the givens and the knowns, we can solve for sin θ, as follows:              \frac{1}{2}*( (4.30 m/s) ^{2}  - (0.75 m/s)^{2}) = 9.8 m/s2*25.5m* sin\theta -0.2*9.8m/s2*25.5m\\ \\ 8.56 (m/s)2 = 250(m/s)2* sin \theta -50 (m/s)2\\ \\ sin \theta = \frac{58.6 (m/s)2}{250 (m/s)2}  = 0.236⇒ θ = sin⁻¹ (0.236) = 13.7º

An airplane traveling 919 m above the ocean at 505 m/s is to drop a case of twinkies to the victims below. How much time before
Elena L [17]

Answer:

a. 13.7 s b. 6913.5 m

Explanation:

a. How much time before being directly overhead should the box be dropped?

Since the box falls under gravity we use the equation

y = ut - 1/2gt² where y = height of plane above ocean = 919 m, u = initial vertical velocity of airplane = 0 m/s, g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s² and t = time it takes the airplane to be directly overhead.

So,

y = ut - 1/2gt²

y = 0 × t - 1/2gt²

y = 0 - 1/2gt²

y = - 1/2gt²

t² = -2y/g

t = √(-2y/g)

So, t = √(-2 × 919 m/-9.8 m/s²)

t = √(-1838 m/-9.8 m/s²)

t = √(187.551 m²/s²)

t = 13.69 s

t ≅ 13.7 s

So, the box should be dropped 13.69 s before being directly overhead.

b. What is the horizontal distance between the plane and the victims when the box is dropped?

The horizontal distance x between plane and victims, x = speed of plane × time it takes for box to drop = 505 m/s × 13.69 s = 6913.45 m ≅ 6913.5 m
