Answer:

b. more rapidly in the vertical direction

Explanation:

Atmospheric Pressure decreases with increasing altitude. The pressure at any level in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation.

Pressure decreases with increasing altitude because at higher altitudes both the height of overlying air column and its density decreases. Hence the answer.

A man does 4,780 J of work in the process of pushing his 2.70 103 kg truck from rest to a speed of v, over a distance of 25.5 m.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

(A) Velocity will be 1.88 m/sec

(b) Force will be 187.45 N

Explanation:

We have given work done = 4780 j

Distance d = 25.5 m

(A) Mass of the truck m = $m=2.70\times 10^3kg$

We know that kinetic energy is given by

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

So $v=\sqrt{\frac{2KE}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 4780}{2.7\times 10^3}}=1.88m/sec$

(B) We know that work done is given by

W = Fd

So $F=\frac{W}{d}=\frac{4780}{25.5}=187.45N$

Can anyone solve these for my by using unit vectors? Can you also please show your work

4. The Coyote has an initial position vector of $\vec r_0=(15.5\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\jmath$ .

4a. The Coyote has an initial velocity vector of $\vec v_0=\left(3.5\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\,\vec\imath$ . His position at time $t$ is given by the vector

$\vec r=\vec r_0+\vec v_0t+\dfrac12\vec at^2$

where $\vec a$ is the Coyote's acceleration vector at time $t$ . He experiences acceleration only in the downward direction because of gravity, and in particular $\vec a=-g\,\vec\jmath$ where $g=9.80\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}$ . Splitting up the position vector into components, we have $\vec r=r_x\,\vec\imath+r_y\,\vec\jmath$ with

$r_x=\left(3.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)t$

$r_y=15.5\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2$

The Coyote hits the ground when $r_y=0$ :

$15.5\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t=1.8\,\mathrm s$

4b. Here we evaluate $r_x$ at the time found in (4a).

$r_x=\left(3.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(1.8\,\mathrm s)=6.3\,\mathrm m$

5. The shell has initial position vector $\vec r_0=(1.52\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\jmath$ , and we're told that after some time the bullet (now separated from the shell) has a position of $\vec r=(3500\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\imath$ .
