Suppose a rocket ship in deep space moves with constant acceleration equal to 9.80 m/s2, which gives the illusion of normal grav

ity during the flight. (a) If it starts from rest, how long will it take to acquire a speed 12% that of light, which travels at 3.0 × 108 m/s? (b) How far will it travel in so doing?

Answer:

a) 3673469.39 seconds

b) 6.61×10¹⁴ m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity = 0.12×3×10⁸ m/s

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Equation of motion

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0.12\times 3\times 10^8=0+9.8t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0.12\times 3\times 10^8}{9.8}=3673469.39\ s$

Time taken to reach 12% of light speed is 3673469.39 seconds

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{(0.12\times 3\times 10^8)^2-0^2}{2\times 9.8}\\\Rightarrow s=6.61 \times 10^{14}\ m$

The distance it would have to travel is 6.61×10¹⁴ m

Technician A says some compressor service procedures can be performed on the vehicle if space permits. Technician B says modern

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Technicians A.

Explanation:

Since air compressor uses series of processes that turn incoming ambient air into a power source for tools and machinery. This means that air compressor has many different parts, and each of these parts must be maintained to ensure they function properly and optimally.

These are the basis when it comes to servicing a compressor

You need to change its oil

And clean its filters.

Inspected it's filters every three months, and have its filters replaced and connections tightened at least once every year.

To do all these can be performed on the vehicle if there is enough space just as Technician A said for the question context.

A large crate with mass m rests on a horizontal floor. The static and kinetic coefficients of friction between the crate and the

rjkz [21]

Answer:

a) $F=\frac{\mu_{k}mg}{cos \theta-\mu_{k}sin \theta}$

b) $\mu_{s}=\frac{Fcos \theta}{Fsin \theta +mg}$

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must first do a drawing of the situation and a free body diagram. (Check attached picture).

After a close look at the diagram and the problem we can see that the crate will have a constant velocity. This means there will be no acceleration to the crate so the sum of the forces must be equal to zero according to Newton's third law. So we can build a sum of forces in both x and y-direction. Let's start with the analysis of the forces in the y-direction:

$\Sigma F_{y}=0$

We can see there are three forces acting in the y-direction, the weight of the crate, the normal force and the force in the y-direction, so our sum of forces is:

$-F_{y}-W+N=0$

When solving for the normal force we get:

$N=F_{y}+W$

we know that

W=mg

and

$F_{y}=Fsin \theta$

so after substituting we get that

N=F sin θ +mg

We also know that the kinetic friction is defined to be:

$f_{k}=\mu_{k}N$

so we can find the kinetic friction by substituting for N, so we get:

$f_{k}=\mu_{k}(F sin \theta +mg)$

Now we can find the sum of forces in x:

$\Sigma F_{x}=0$

so after analyzing the diagram we can build our sum of forces to be:

$-f+F_{x}=0$

we know that:

$F_{x}=Fcos \theta$

so we can substitute the equations we already have in the sum of forces on x so we get:

$-\mu_{k}(F sin \theta +mg)+Fcos \theta=0$

so now we can solve for the force, we start by distributing $\mu_{k}$ so we get:

$-\mu_{k}F sin \theta -\mu_{k}mg)+Fcos \theta=0$

we add $\mu_{k}mg$ to both sides so we get:

$-\mu_{k}F sin \theta +Fcos \theta=\mu_{k}mg$

Nos we factor F so we get:

$F(cos \theta-\mu_{k} sin \theta)=\mu_{k}mg$

and now we divide both sides of the equation into $(cos \theta-\mu_{k} sin \theta)$ so we get:

$F=\frac{\mu_{k}mg}{cos \theta-\mu_{k}sin \theta}$

which is our answer to part a.

Now, for part b, we will have the exact same free body diagram, with the difference that the friction coefficient we will use for this part will be the static friction coefficient, so by following the same procedure we followed on the previous problem we get the equations:

$f_{s}=\mu_{s}(F sin \theta +mg)$

and

F cos θ = f

when substituting one into the other we get:

$F cos \theta=\mu_{s}(F sin \theta +mg)$

which can be solved for the static friction coefficient so we get:

$\mu_{s}=\frac{Fcos \theta}{Fsin \theta +mg}$

which is the answer to part b.

Magnet A has twice the magnetic field strength of magnet B and pulls on magnet B with a force of 100 N. The amount of force that

son4ous [18]

The force exerted by the magnetic in terms of the magnetic field is,

$F\propto B$

Where B is the magnetic fied strength and F is the force.

Thus, if the magnetic A has twice magnetic field strength than the magnet B,

Then,

$B_A=2B_B$

Thus, the force exerted by the magnet B is,

$\begin{gathered} F_B\propto B_B \\ F_B\propto\frac{B_A}{2} \\ F_B=\frac{F_A}{2} \\ F_B=\frac{100}{2} \\ F_B=50\text{ N} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the force exerted by the magnet B on magnet A is 50 N.

The force exerted by the magnet A exerts on the magnet B is exactly 100 N as given.

Hence, the option B is the correct answer.
