A cannon fires a shell straight upward; 2.3 s after it is launched, the shell is moving upward with a speed of 20 m/s. Assuming

air resistance is negligible, find the speed (magnitude of velocity) in meters per second of the shell at launch and 4.7 s after the launch.

Answer: The launch speed is 43m/s

4.7secs after launch speed is 4m/s

Explanation: To solve this we use the first equation of motion but in this case our acceleration would be -10m/s² since we are going upwards against gravity(launch).

Vf = Vi - a*t

Where Vf is the final velocity after launch, Vi is the initial velocity at launch, t is time in secs then a is acceleration

a. From the question

t = 2.3secs

Vf = 20m/s

a = -10m/s²

Substituting into the above equation we have that,

20= Vi - 10* 2.3

20 = Vi - 23

Vi = 20+23

Vi = 43 m/s

Which is the speed at launch.

b. The magnitude of speed (Vf) 4.7 sec after launch is calculated as follows using same procedure but here Vi is 43m/s as calculated

Vf = 43 - 10*4.7

Vf = 43 - 47

Vf = -4m/s

But since we are asked to find the magnitude we neglect the negative sign.

A projectile is fired with an initial velocity of 450 feet per second at an angle of 70° with the horizontal.
pav-90 [236]
<h2>After 26.28 seconds projectile returns 26.28 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

Initial velocity = 450 ft/s = 137.16 m/s

Angle, θ = 70°

Consider the vertical motion of projectile,

When the projectile return to the ground we have

           Displacement, s = 0 m

           Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²

            Initial velocity, u = 137.16 x sin70 = 128.89 m/s

Substituting in s = ut + 0.5 at²

                s = ut + 0.5 at²

                0 = 128.89 x t + 0.5 x (-9.81) x t²

                t² - 26.28 t = 0

                t ( t- 26.28) = 0

               t = 0 s or t = 26.28 s

After 26.28 seconds projectile returns 26.28 seconds.

A uniform cylindrical grindstone has a mass of 10 kg and a radius of 12 cm. (a) What is the rotational kinetic energy of the gri
Drupady [299]

Answer:

a) KE = 888.26J

b) N = 294.5 turns

Explanation:

For the kinetic energy:

KE = I/2*\omega_o^2

The inertia is:

I=m/2*R^2=0.072kg.m^2

So, the kinetic energy will be:

KE = 888.26J

Now, friction force is:

Ff = μ*N = 0.80*5N = 4N

The energy balance would be:

Kf - Ko = Wf    where Kf=0;   Ko = 888.26J;  and Wf is the work done by friction force.

Wf = -Ff*d = -Ff*N*2*π*R   where N is the amount of turns it gives.

Replacing these values into the energy balance:

0-888.26=-4*N*2*π*0.12

-888.26=-0.96*π*N

N=294.5 turns
