Answer:

Explanation:

When a projectile is launched at some angle to the horizontal with some speed vi , and air resistance is negligible , it is definitely a freely falling body .

It is so because it is free to accelerate towards the earth with acceleration of g . Air has no resistance , hence no force is acting on it except the gravitational force . Hence it is a freely falling body .

b )

The acceleration in the vertical direction is due to force exerted by the earth that is gravitational force on it  . Hence its  acceleration is equal to g in vertically downward direction .

c )

It has zero acceleration in horizontal direction . It is so because no force is acting on it in horizontal direction . So no acceleration will be present in horizontal direction . It will move in horizontal direction with constant speed of vi cos θ where θ is the angle vi make with the horizontal .

A crystalline grain of nickel in a metal plate is situated so that a tensile load is oriented along the [111] crystal direction
hoa [83]

Given:

Applied stress, \sigma = 0.45 MPa

Critical Resolved Stress,  T_{cRss}= 0.242 MPa

Solution:

a). According to the question, orientation of tensile load is along [1 1 1],

\sigma = 0.45 MPa

Now, for resolved shear stress,  \t_{Rss} along [1 0 1] within (1 1 T)

let  '\theta' be the angle between [1 1 1] and [1 0 1], then by coordinate formula:

cos\theta = \frac{1\times 1 + 1\times 0 + 1\times 1}{\sqrt{1^{2}+1^{2}+1^{2}\sqrt{1^{2}+0^{2}+1^{2}}}}

cos\theta = \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}}

let  '\phi' be the angle between [1 1 1] and [1  1 1], then by coordinate formula:

cos\phi  = \frac{1\times 1 + 1\times 1 + 1\times 1}{\sqrt{1^{2}+1^{2}+1^{2}\sqrt{1^{2}+1^{2}+1^{2}}}}

cos\phi = 1

Now, for the resolved components along [1 0 1]

\t_{Rss}  = \sigma  cos\theta cos\phi

\t_{Rss} = 0.45\times 10^{6}\times \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}}\times 1 = 0.3673 MPa

b).  For required tensile stress to produce  T_{cRss}= 0.242 MPa:

\sigma _{1} = \frac{T_{cRss}}{cos\theta  cos\phi }

\sigma _{1} = \frac{0.242\times 10^{6}}{\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}}\times 1}

\sigma _{1} = 0.2964 MPa

A 0.45 kg football traveling at a speed of 22 m/s is caught by a stationary receiver. If the football comes to a rest in the rec
joja [24]

Answer:

0.9Ns

Explanation:

Impulse formula is expressed as;

Impulse = Ft = m(v-u)

Impulse = m(v-u)

m is the mass of football = 0.45kg

v is the final velocity = 22m/s

u is the initial velocity = 0m/s

Impulse = 0.45(22-0)

Impulse = 0.45 * 22

Impulse =  0.9Ns

Hence the magnitude of the impulse imparted to the receiver by the ball is 0.9Ns

What is a tool that can be used to measure the size of a force
Gelneren [198K]

If the force is in the right range ... not too strong and not too
weak ... then a bathroom scale can be used to measure it.

If the force is huge, then you'd need a truck scale.

If the force is small, then you'd need a laboratory balance.
