A rock is thrown upward from level ground in such a way that the maximumheight of its flight is equal to its horizontal rangeR.

a) At what angleθis therock thrown? b) In terms of its original rangeR, what is the rangeRmaxtherock can attain if it is launched at the same speed but at the optimal anglefor maximum range? c) Would your answer to part a) be different if the rockis thrown with the same speed on a different planet? Explain.

A) The vertical component of velocity v is taking the rock to a height

Vertical component = vsin\theta
The time taken to reach maximum height = \frac{vsin\theta}{g}
So total time of rocks flight = \frac{2vsin\theta}{g}
Range of rock is due to the horizontal component of velocity = vcos\theta
Range = \frac{2*v*sin\theta*v*cos\theta}{g} = \frac{2*v^2*sin\theta*cos\theta}{g}
Maximum height = \frac{g*t^2}{2} = \frac{v^2*sin^2\theta}{2*g}
Since range = maximum height
We have \frac{2*v^2sin\theta*cos\theta}{g} = \frac{v^2*sin^2\theta}{2*g}
tan\theta = 4
\theta = 75.96^0
So when angle of projection is \theta = 75.96^0 range is equal to maximum height reached.
b) We have range = \frac{2*v^2*sin\theta*cos\theta}{g} =\frac{2*v^2*sin2\theta}{g}
Maximum of range is reached when \theta = 45^0
Maximum range = \frac{2*v^2}{g}
c) For range to be equal to maximum height only condition is tan\theta = 4, it does not depend upon acceleration due to gravity and velocity. That angle is a constant.

In one cycle a heat engine absorbs 450 J from a high-temperature reservoir and expels 290 J to a low-temperature reservoir. If t
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

So the ratio will be \frac{T_L}{T_H}=-0.171

Explanation:

We have given heat engine absorbs 450 joule from high temperature reservoir

So Q=450j

As the heat engine expels 290 j

So work done W = 290 J

We know that efficiency \eta =\frac{W}{Q}=\frac{290}{450}=0.6444

It is given that efficiency of the engine only 55 % of Carnot engine

So efficiency of Carnot engine =\frac{0.6444}{0.55}=1.171

Efficiency of Carnot engine is \eta =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}

1.171 =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}

\frac{T_L}{T_H}=-0.171

Why doesn't the skateboarder roll as high each time she goes up the ramp
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The skater has mechanical/gravitational potential energy at the two meter mark. The skater gets to two meters high on the other end of the ramp. In terms of the conservation of energy, the skater will never go higher than two meter on the other end of the the ramp because energy can be neither created nor destroyed.

You are in Paris, 60 m up in the Eiffel Tower. If you throw a euro downward at a velocity of 2.0 m/s, how long would it take the
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

t = 3.29 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height of the Eiffel tower is 60 m

Initial speed of a euro, u = 2 m/s

It will move under the action of gravity in the downward direction. Firstly, we can find the final velocity as follows :

v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\v=\sqrt{u^2+2ad} \\\\v=\sqrt{(2)^2+2\times 9.81\times 60} \\\\v=34.36\ m/s

Let t is the time taken by the euro to hit the ground. It can be calculated as :

v=u+at\\\\t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\dfrac{34.36-2}{9.81}\\\\t=3.29\ s

Hence, it will take 3.29 seconds to hit the ground.
