Answer: Both cannonballs will hit the ground at the same time.
Explanation:
Suppose that a given object is on the air. The only force acting on the object (if we ignore air friction and such) will be the gravitational force.
then the acceleration equation is only on the vertical axis, and can be written as:
a(t) = -(9.8 m/s^2)
Now, to get the vertical velocity equation, we need to integrate over time.
v(t) = -(9.8 m/s^2)*t + v0
Where v0 is the initial velocity of the object in the vertical axis.
if the object is dropped (or it only has initial velocity on the horizontal axis) then v0 = 0m/s
and:
v(t) = -(9.8 m/s^2)*t
Now, if two objects are initially at the same height (both cannonballs start 1 m above the ground)
And both objects have the same vertical velocity, we can conclude that both objects will hit the ground at the same time.
You can notice that the fact that one ball is fired horizontally and the other is only dropped does not affect this, because we only analyze the vertical problem, not the horizontal one. (This is something useful to remember, we can separate the vertical and horizontal movement in these type of problems)
To reduce friction between two surfaces, you have to
make the surfaces smoother.
The best way to do that is to introduce a fluid between them,
like grease, oil, or air.
Answer:
Given that
Dry-bulb temperature(T) =24°C
Wet-bulb temperature(Tw) = 17°C
Pressure ,P = 1 atm
As we know that psychrometric chart are drawn at constant pressure.
From the diagram
ω= specific humidity
Lets take these two lines Dry-bulb temperature(T) line and Wet-bulb temperature(Tw) cut at point P
From chart at point P
a)
Specific humidity,ω = 0.00922 kg/kg
b)
The enthalpy ( h)
h=47.59 KJ/kg
c)
The relative humidity, RH
RH= 49.58 %
d)
Specific volume ,
v= 0.853 m³/kg
