Answer:

=1419.19 meters.

Explanation:

The time it takes for the shell to drop to the tanker from the height, H =1/2gt²

610m=1/2×9.8×t²

t²=(610m×2)/9.8m/s²

t²=124.49s²

t=11.16 s

Therefore, it takes 11.16 seconds for a free fall from a height of 610m

Range= Initial velocity×time taken to hit the tanker.

R=v₁t

Lets change 300 mph to kph.

=300×1.60934 =482.802 kph

Relative velocity=482.802 kph-25 kph

=457.802 kph

Lets change 11.16 seconds to hours.

=11.16/(3600)

=0.0031 hours.

R=v₁t

=457.802 kph × 0.0031 hours.

=1.41918 km

=1.41919 km × 1000m/km

=1419.19 meters.

A 740-kg boulder is raised from a quarry 119 m deep by a long uniform chain having a mass of 550 kg . This chain is of uniform s

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

A) the maximum acceleration the boulder can have and still get out of the quarry

B) how long does it take to be lifted out at maximum acceleration if it started from rest

Explanation:

A)

let +y is upward. look below at the free body diagram. the mass M refers to the combined mass of the boulder and chain.

the weight of the chain is: $w_{c} =m_{c} g$ and maximum tension is $T=2.50 m_{c} g=1.41*10^4N$

total mass and weight is :

$M =m_{c}+ m_{b} =740kg+550kg=1290 kg$

$w_{M} =1.2650*10^4N$

∑ $F_{y} =ma_{y}$

$T-M_{g} =Ma_{y}$

$a_{y} =(t-M_{g} )/M=(2.50m_{c} -M_{g} )/M=(2.50.550kg-1290kg)(9.8m/s^2)/1290kg$

$=0.645m/s^2$

B)

maximum acceleration

$a_{y} =0.645m/s^2\\\\y-y_{0} =119m\\v_{0y} =0$

using $y-y_{0} =v_{oy} t+1/2(a_{y} )t^2$

to solve for t

$t=\sqrt{2(y-y_{0} )/a_{y} }$

$t=\sqrt{2(119m)/0.645m/s^2} =19.20s$

A bar of length L = 8 ft and midpoint D is falling so that, when θ = 27°, ∣∣v→D∣∣=18.5 ft/s , and the vertical acceleration of p

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

alpha=53.56rad/s

a=5784rad/s^2

Explanation:

First of all, we have to compute the time in which point D has a velocity of v=23ft/s (v0=0ft/s)

$v=v_0+at\\\\t=\frac{v}{a}=\frac{(23\frac{ft}{s})}{32.17\frac{ft}{s^2}}=0.71s$

Now, we can calculate the angular acceleration (w0=0rad/s)

$\theta=\omega_0t +\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2\\\alpha=\frac{2\theta}{t^2}$

$\alpha=\frac{27}{(0.71s)^2}=53.56\frac{rad}{s^2}$

with this value we can compute the angular velocity

$\omega=\omega_0+\alpha t\\\omega = (53.56\frac{rad}{s^2})(0.71s)=38.02\frac{rad}{s}$

and the tangential velocity of point B, and then the acceleration of point B:

$v_t=\omega r=(38.02\frac{rad}{s})(4)=152.11\frac{ft}{s}\\a_t=\frac{v_t^2}{r}=\frac{(152.11\frac{ft}{s})^2}{4ft}=5784\frac{rad}{s^2}$

hope this helps!!

A 100 V battery is connected across a

Sergio039 [100]

1 mA = 0.001 A

Therefore, 5 mA = 0.001 * 5

=0.005 A

Resistance = voltage / current

= 100 / 0.005

= 20000 ohms

Current = voltage / resistance

= 25 / 20000

= 0.00125 A (or) 1.25 mA

You pull on a spring whose spring constant is 22 N/m, and stretch it from its equilibrium length of 0.3 m to a length of 0.7 m.

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

W= 4.4 J

Explanation

Elastic potential energy theory

If we have a spring of constant K to which a force F that produces a Δx deformation is applied, we apply Hooke's law:

F=K*x Formula (1): The force F applied to the spring is proportional to the deformation x of the spring.

As the force is variable to calculate the work we define an average force

$F_{a} =\frac{F_{f}+F_{i} }{2}$ Formula (2)

Ff: final force

Fi: initial force

The work done on the spring is :

W = Fa*Δx

Fa : average force

Δx : displacement

$W = F_{a} (x_{f} -x_{i} )$ :Formula (3)

$x_{f}$ : final deformation

$x_{i}$ :initial deformation

Problem development

We calculate Ff and Fi , applying formula (1) :

$F_{f} = K*x_{f} =22\frac{N}{m} *0.7m =15.4N$

$F_{i} = K*x_{i} =22\frac{N}{m} *0.3m =6.6N$

We calculate average force applying formula (2):

$F_{a} =\frac{15.4N+6.2N}{2} = 11 N$

We calculate the work done on the spring applying formula (3) : :

W= 11N*(0.7m-0.3m) = 11N*0.4m=4.4 N*m = 4.4 Joule = 4.4 J

Work done in stages

Work is the change of elastic potential energy (ΔEp)

W=ΔEp

ΔEp= Epf-Epi

Epf= final potential energy

Epi=initial potential energy

$E_{pf} =\frac{1}{2} *k*x_{f}^{2}$

$E_{pi} =\frac{1}{2} *k*x_{i}^{2}$

$E_{pf} =\frac{1}{2} *22*0.7^{2} = 5.39 J$

$E_{pf} =\frac{1}{2} *22*0.3^{2} = 0.99 J$

W=ΔEp= 5.39 J-0.99 J = 4.4J
