A 4kg ball moving at 8m\sec

1 answer:

8 0

Conservation of momentum: total momentum before = total momentum after

Momentum = mass x velocity

So before the collision:
4kg x 8m/s = 32
1kg x 0m/s = 0
32+0=32

Therefore after the collision
4kg x 4.8m/s = 19.2
1kg x βm/s = β
19.2 + β = 32

Therefore β = 12.8 m/s

Determine the lamp wattage required to obtain an illumination level of 50 f-c over a 100 ft2 area if a fixture is used with a CU

Bezzdna [24]

Lamp Wattage is utilized with a CU of 0.75 and 80 percent of the available light reaches the work surface, the remaining 20 percent is absorbed by walls and other objects in the space, resulting in an illumination level of 50 f-c over a 100 ft2 area

The term "lumen" refers to the emission of "luminous flux," which is a measurement of the total amount of visible light emitted by a source in a certain amount of time. The illumination level over a 100 ft2 area will be 50 f-c Lamp Wattage with a CU of 0.75 used, with 80 percent of the available light reaching the work surface and the remaining 20 percent being absorbed by walls and other objects in the room.
Total Lamp Wattage = Number of Lamps X Wattage of Each Lamp.
The fixtures' total wattage is 2 x 32, or 64 watts.
Lumen per Fixtures equals Lumen Efficiency (Lumen per Watt) times the Watt of each Fixture
85x 64 = 5440 lumens per fixture.

Engineering solutions use scientific laws to predict behaviors of objects in certain situations. Will used Newton's Laws of Moti

Alinara [238K]

D) Scientific laws do not account for unseen variations, like wind

Explanation:

Will model in predicting the path of an arrow he was about to shoot failed because scientific laws most times do not account for unseen variations like wind.

Scientific laws are the description of an observed phenomenon in nature.

Most scientific laws have exceptions.
Exceptions in scientific laws are conditions in which the law will not hold true.
There are exceptions to newton's law of motion which Will did not take into account.

Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their

natta225 [31]

Answer:

5.0 m/s

Explanation:

The horizontal motion of the salmon is uniform, so the horizontal component of the salmon's velocity is constant and it is

$v_x = u cos \theta$

where u is the initial speed and $\theta=37.7^{\circ}$ . The horizontal distance travelled by the salmon is

$d=v_x t = (ucos \theta)t$

where d = 1.95 m and t is the time needed to reach the final point.

Re-arranging for t,

$t=\frac{d}{v_x}=\frac{d}{u cos \theta}$ (1)

Along the vertical direction, the equation of motion is

$y=h+u_y t -\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

where:

y = 0.311 m is the final height reached by the salmon

h = 0 is the initial height

$u_y = u sin \theta$ is the vertical component of the initial velocity of the salmon

$g=9.81 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

t is the time

Substituting t as found in eq.(1), we get the equation

$y=(u sin \theta) \frac{d}{u cos \theta}- \frac{1}{2}g\frac{d^2}{u^2 cos^2 \theta}=d tan \theta - \frac{1}{2}g\frac{d^2}{u^2 cos^2 \theta}$

and we can solve this formula for u, the initial speed of the salmon:

$y=d tan \theta - \frac{1}{2}g\frac{d^2}{u^2 cos^2 \theta}\\\\u=\sqrt{\frac{gd^2}{2(dtan \theta -y)cos^2 \theta}}=\sqrt{\frac{(9.81)(1.95)^2}{2((1.95)(tan 37.7^{\circ}) -0.311)cos^2 37.7^{\circ}}}=5.0 m/s$
