A sled of mass m is given a kick on a frozen pond. The kick imparts to the sled an initial speed of 2.00 m/s . The coefficient o
kobusy [5.1K]

2.04 meters distance is traveled by the sled before stopping.

Mass of the sled = m

The initial speed of the sled = 2 m/s

Coefficient of kinetic friction between sled and ice = 0.100

Let the distance the sled moves before it stops be d.

Gravity = 9.8 m/ s²

Let the initial kinetic energy sled be

= K _{i}

K_{i} =  \frac{1}{2} mv ^{2}

The work done by the frictional force is,

Work \: done \:  by \: frictional \: force =W_{f}

W _{f} = μ_{k}mgd

Work done by frictional force= Initial kinetic energy of the sled

W_{f} = K_{i}

μ_{k}mgd= \frac{1}{2} mv ^{2}

So, the distance traveled by the sled before stopping is

d= \frac{1mv ^{2} }{2 \:μ_{k}mg}

d= \frac{1v ^{2} }{2 \:μ_{k}g}

d= \frac{2^{2} }{2  \times \:0.100 \times 9.8}

d= 2.04 \: m

Therefore, the distance traveled by the sled before stopping is 2.04 meters.

A runner is jogging in a straight line at a
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Total distance traveled by bird is 10.5 km.

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of runner= 8.4 km/hr

Distance = 6.3 km

Velocity of bird = 42 km/hr

Suppose, How far does the bird travel?

We need to calculate the time of bird

Using formula of time

t=\dfrac{d}{v_{b}}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{6.3}{42}

t=0.15\ hr

We need to calculate the distance runner travels during time period

Using formula of distance

d=v_{r}\times t

d=8.4\times0.15

d=1.26\ km

We need to calculate the distance of runner to FL

Using distance

d'=6.3-1.26

d'=5.04\ km

We need to calculate the net closing speed between runner and bird

Using speed

v'=v_{r}+v_{b}

v'=8.4+42

v'=50.4\ km/hr

We need to calculate the time for runner and bird to meet

Using formula of time

t=\dfrac{d}{v'}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{5.04}{50.4}

t=0.1\ hr

We need to calculate the distance covered by runner

Using formula of distance

d=vt

Put the value into the formula

d=8.4\times0.1

d=0.84\ km

We need to calculate the distance covered by bird to runner

Using formula of distance

d=vt

Put the value into the formula

d=42\times0.1

d=4.2\ km

We need to calculate the total distance

Using distance

D=6.3+4.2

D=10.5\ km  

Hence, Total distance traveled by bird is 10.5 km.

A .005kg projectile leaves a 1500kg launcher with a velocity of 750 m/s. What is the recoil velocity of the projectile
docker41 [41]

Answer:

The recoil velocity of the projectile is 0.0025m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the projectile =0.005kg

Mass of the launcher = 1500kg

Velocity =  750 m/s.

To Find:

The recoil velocity of the projectile = ?

Solution:

The recoil velocity is the obtained by dividing the "recoil momentum"  by the "mass of the recoil body".  The recoil momentum is equal to the momentum of the other body. The momentum of the other body is equal to it mass times its velocity.

Lets find the recoil momentum,

Recoil momentum = mass of the projectile X velocity

Recoil momentum =0.005 \times 750

Recoil momentum = 3.75

Now Recoil Velocity,

Recoil Velocity = \frac{\text { Recoil Momentum}}{\text {Mass of the launcher}}

Recoil Velocity = \frac{ 3.75}{1500}

Recoil Velocity = 0.0025m/s
