In 1865, jules verne proposed sending men to the moon by firing a space capsule from a 220-m-long cannon with final speed of 10.

97 km/s. what would have been the unrealistically large acceleration experienced by the space travelers during their launch? (a human can stand an acceleration of 15g for a short time.)

I'm going to assume that the 10.97 km/s is the velocity at the end of the cannon.

vi = 0
d = 220m
vf = 10.97 km/s = 10970 m/s
a = ???

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a*d
10970^2 = 0 + 2*a*220
10970^2 / 440 = a You are right this is a pretty big number.
2.73 * 10^5 = a

Force F = (-6.0 N)ihat + (2.0 N) jhatacts on a particle with position vector r =(4.0 m) ihat+ (4.0 m) jhat.
finlep [7]

Answer:

\tau=(-32k)\ N-m

\theta=116.55^{\circ}

Explanation:

Given that.

Force acting on the particle, F=(-6i + 2.0j)\ N

Position of the particle, r=(4i+4j)\ m

To find,

(a) Torque on the particle about the origin.

(b) The angle between the directions of r and F

Solution,

(a) Torque acting on the particle is a scalar quantity. It is given by the cross product of force and position. It is given by :

\tau=F\times r

\tau=(-6i + 2.0j)\times (4i+4j)

\tau=\begin{pmatrix}0&0&-32\end{pmatrix}

\tau=(-32k)\ N-m

So, the torque on the particle about the origin is (32 N-m).

(b) Magnitude of r, |r|=\sqrt{4^2+4^2}=5.65\ m

Magnitude of F, |F|=\sqrt{(-6)^2+2^2}=6.324\ m

Using dot product formula,

F{\circ}\ r=|F|.|r|\ cos\theta

cos\theta=\dfrac{F{\circ} r}{|F|.|r|}

cos\theta=\dfrac{-24+8}{6.324\times 5.65}

\theta=116.55^{\circ}

Therefore, this is the required solution.

A speedboat initially at rest accelerates uniformly at 4.0 m/s (squared) for 7.0 s. How fast is the boat moving after 7.0 s?
zaharov [31]
Well if the boat initially at rest accelerates at uniformly at 4.0 m/s (squared) then it would be best to muitlply it so 4.0 squared equals 2 by multiplying that by 7.0 your answer would be 14 s
