Answer:
Therefore the resistance of the air makes the movement not parabolic but shorter in each direction
Explanation:
The projectile motion is described by the kinematics equations giving a parabolic trajectory, where on the x axis there is no acceleration and on the y axis the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity.
When the air resistance is taken into account it can be approximated as a force that opposes the movement that for low speeds is proportional to the speed of the space.
Consequently, the movement in the axis and the acceleration is less, in some cases it can be so small that the constant handle speed, in this case, is called terminal velocity.
On the x-axis the friction force creates an acceleration in the negative direction of the movement that the projectile has to brake.
Therefore the resistance of the air makes the movement not parabolic but shorter in each direction.
Answer:
Mass
Explanation:
The mass of an object expresses the amount of matter it comprises. Which implies that objects with higher mass contains higher matter compared to objects with lesser masses. Thereby it determines the measure of inertia experienced by an object when a force is applied to change its direction of motion, or to set it in motion when at rest, or bring it to rest when in motion.
The mass of an object the same no matter its location, and it is measured in kilograms.
At 100 km/hr, the car's kinetic energy is
KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²
KE = (1/2) (1575 kg) ( [100 km/hr] x [1000 m/km] x [1 hr/3600 sec] )²
KE = (787.5 kg) (27.78 m/s)²
KE = 607,639 Joules
In order to deliver this energy in 2.9 seconds, the engine must supply
(607,639 J / 2.9 sec) = 209,531 watts
<em>Power = 281 HP</em>
Answer:
35.14°C
Explanation:
The equation for linear thermal expansion is
, which means that a bar of length
with a thermal expansion coefficient
under a temperature variation
will experiment a length variation
.
We have then
= 0.481 foot,
= 1671 feet and
= 0.000013 per centigrade degree (this is just the linear thermal expansion of steel that you must find in a table), which means from the equation for linear thermal expansion that we have a
= 22.14°. As said before, these degrees are centigrades (Celsius or Kelvin, it does not matter since it is only a variation), and the foot units cancel on the equation, showing no further conversion was needed.
Since our temperature on a cool spring day was 13.0°C, our new temperature must be
= 35.14°C
