An Arrow (1 kg) travels with velocity 30 m/s to the right when it pierces an apple (2 kg) which is initially at rest. After the

collision, the arrow and the apple are stuck together. Assume that no external forces are present and therefore the momentum for the system is conserved. What is the final velocity (in m/s) of apple and arrow after the collision?

Answer:

10 m/s

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of arrow = 1 kg

$m_2$ = Mass of apple = 2 kg

$u_1$ = Initial Velocity of arrow = 30 m/s

$u_2$ = Initial Velocity of apple = 0 m/s

$v$ = Velocity of combined mass

For elastic collision

$m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =(m_1 + m_2)v\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{m_1u_1 + m_2u_2}{m_1 + m_2}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{1\times 30 + 2\times 0}{1 + 2}\\\Rightarrow v=10\ m/s$

Final velocity of apple and arrow after collision is 10 m/s

To solve the problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of the description of angular movement.

The angular velocity can be described as

$\omega_f = \omega_0 + \alpha t$

Where,

$\omega_f =$ Final Angular Velocity

$\omega_0 =$ Initial Angular velocity

$\alpha =$ Angular acceleration

t = time

The relation between the tangential acceleration is given as,

$a = \alpha r$

where,

r = radius.

PART A ) Using our values and replacing at the previous equation we have that

$\omega_f = (94rpm)(\frac{2\pi rad}{60s})= 9.8436rad/s$

$\omega_0 = 63rpm(\frac{2\pi rad}{60s})= 6.5973rad/s$

$t = 11s$

Replacing the previous equation with our values we have,

$\omega_f = \omega_0 + \alpha t$

$9.8436 = 6.5973 + \alpha (11)$

$\alpha = \frac{9.8436- 6.5973}{11}$

$\alpha = 0.295rad/s^2$

The tangential velocity then would be,

$a = \alpha r$

$a = (0.295)(0.2)$

$a = 0.059m/s^2$

Part B) To find the displacement as a function of angular velocity and angular acceleration regardless of time, we would use the equation

$\omega_f^2=\omega_0^2+2\alpha\theta$

Replacing with our values and re-arrange to find $\theta,$

$\theta = \frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_0^2}{2\alpha}$

$\theta = \frac{9.8436^2-6.5973^2}{2*0.295}$

$\theta = 90.461rad$

That is equal in revolution to

$\theta = 90.461rad(\frac{1rev}{2\pi rad}) = 14.397rev$

The linear displacement of the system is,

$x = \theta*(2\pi*r)$

$x = 14.397*(2\pi*\frac{0.25}{2})$

$x = 11.3m$

1. Most waves are caused by vibrations. What motion in a transmitting antenna causes the vibrations that produce radio waves?

morpeh [17]

The answer 1 is
The best-known use of radio waves is for communication; television, cellphones and radios all receive radio waves and convert them to mechanical vibrations in the speaker to create sound waves that can be heard.Electromagnetic radiation is transmitted inwaves or particles at different wavelengths and frequencies.

the answer 2 is

Radio Waves: Instant Communication
Microwaves: Data and Heat

i think the answer number 3 is
It is all about wavelength versus tunnel diameter. The wavelength of GPS is about 20cm it would happily propagate in any normal tunnel if it could get in but the earth and other structures absorb it. AM radio (600kHz - 1500kHz) cannot propagate in any normal tunnel because the wavelength is too long (500m-200m) relative to the diameter, and thus gets reflected at the entrance. FM (100MHz ~ 3m) would propagate and it does for a while but then it suffers reflections

An automobile with an initial speed of 4.92 m/s accelerates uniformly at the rate of 3.2 m/s2 . Find the final speed of the car

Rudik [331]

Answer:19.32 m/s

Explanation:

Given

initial speed of car(u)=4.92 m/s

acceleration(a)= $3.2 m/s^2$

Speed of car after 4.5 s

using equation of motion

v=u+at

$v=4.92+3.2\times 4.5=4.92+14.4$

v=19.32 m/s

Displacement of the car after 4.5 s

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$19.32^2-4.92^2=2\times 3.2\times s$

$349.05=2\times 3.2\times s$

s=54.54 m
