A passenger in a helicopter traveling upwards at 15 m/s accidentally drops a package out the window. If it takes 15 seconds to r

each the ground, how high to the nearest meter was the helicopter when the package was dropped?

Alexeev081 [22]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The helicopter was 1103.63 meters high when the package was dropped.

Explanation:

We consider positive speed as a downward movement

y: height (m)

t: time (s)

v₀: initial speed (m/s)

Δy = v₀t + \frac{1}{2}gt²

Δy= 15\frac{m}{s}×15 s + \frac{1}{2}×9.81\frac{m}{s^{2} }×(15 s)²

Δy= 1103.63 m

a cart's initial velocity is +3.0 meters per second. What is its final velocity after accelerating at a rate of 1.5m/s2 for 8.0
Andreas93 [3]

The final velocity is +15.0 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the cart is a uniformly accelerated motion (=at constant acceleration), therefore we can use the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the velocity at time t

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the cart in this problem, we have:

u = +3.0 m/s (initial velocity)

a=1.5 m/s^2 (acceleration)

t = 8.0 s (time)

Substituting, we find the final velocity:

v=3.0+(1.5)(8.0)=+15.0 m/s

A certain superconducting magnet in the form of a solenoid of length 0.24 m can generate a magnetic field of 7.0 T in its core w
tatiyna

Answer:

N=14854.5turns

Explanation:

Given data

Length L=0.24 m

Magnetic field B=7.0 T

Current I=90 A

To find

Number of turns N

Solution

As we know that magnetic field is given as:

B=u_{o}I\frac{N}{L}

Rearrange the equation and solve for N

So

B=u_{o}I\frac{N}{L}\\\frac{B}{u_{o}I} =\frac{N}{L} \\N=\frac{LB}{u_{o}I}\\N=\frac{(0.24m)(7.0T)}{4\pi *10^{-7}*(90A)} \\N=14854.5turns

Two children (m = 40 kg each) stand opposite each other on the edge of a merry-go-round. The merry-go-round, which has a mass M
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initially the two boys were sitting on the periphery , total moment of inertia

= 1/2 M  r² + 2mr²     ; M is mass of the merry go round , m is mass of each boy and r is the radius

1/2 x 200 x 2² + 2 x 40 x 2²

= 400 + 320

I₁ =  720 kg m²

Finally  the two boys were sitting at the middle  , total moment of inertia

= 1/2 M  r² + 2m( r/2)²     ; M is mass of the merry go round , m is mass of each boy and r is the radius

1/2 x 200 x 2² + 2 x 40 x 1²

= 400 + 80

I₂  = 480

Now the system will obey law of coservation of angular momentum because no torque is acting on the system.

I₁ω₁ =  I₂ω₂ ,         I₁  and ω₁  are moment of inertia and angular velocity of first case and  I₂  and ω₂ are of second case.

720 X 12 = 480 ω₂

ω₂ = 18 rad / s

Physics.... how far away was the lightning bolt in meters
likoan [24]
To figure this out we need to multiply the time it took for the boy to hear thunder (8 seconds) by the speed of sound in air (340 m/s)

340 x 8 = 2720

The lightning bolt was 2720.00 meters away.
