A car with a mass of 3 Kg and velocity of 40 m/s collided with a truck of a velocity of 60 m/s, if the momentum is conserved wha

Luden [163]

Answer:

the mass of the truck is 2 kg.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the car, m₁ = 3 kg

initial velocity of the car, u₁ = 40 m/s

initial velocity of the truck, u₂ = 60 m/s

let the mass of the truck = m₂

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momemtum;

m₁u₁ = m₂u₂

m₂ = (m₁u₁) / u₂

m₂ = (3 x 40) / (60)

m₂ = 2 kg

Therefore, the mass of the truck is 2 kg.

A vertical, solid steel post 25 cm in diameter and 2.50m long is required to support a load of 8000kg. You can ignore the weight

Gwar [14]

(a) The stress in the post is 1,568,000 N/m²

(b) The strain in the post is 7.61 x 10⁻⁶

(c) The change in the post’s length when the load is applied is 1.9 x 10⁻⁵ m.

<h3>Area of the steel post</h3>

A = πd²/4

where;

d is the diameter

A = π(0.25²)/4 = 0.05 m²

<h3>Stress on the steel post</h3>

σ = F/A

σ = mg/A

where;

m is mass supported by the steel
g is acceleration due to gravity
A is the area of the steel post

σ = (8000 x 9.8)/(0.05)

σ = 1,568,000 N/m²

<h3>Strain of the post</h3>

E = stress / strain

where;

E is Young's modulus of steel = 206 Gpa

strain = stress/E

strain = (1,568,000) / (206 x 10⁹)

strain = 7.61 x 10⁻⁶

<h3>Change in length of the steel post</h3>

strain = ΔL/L

where;

ΔL is change in length
L is original length

ΔL = 7.61 x 10⁻⁶ x 2.5

ΔL = 1.9 x 10⁻⁵ m

A tank contains gas at 13.0°C pressurized to 10.0 atm. The temperature of the gas is increased to 95.0°C, and half the gas is re

fomenos

Answer:

The pressure of the remaining gas in the tank is 6.4 atm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Temperature T = 13+273=286 K

Pressure = 10.0 atm

We need to calculate the pressure of the remaining gas

Using equation of ideal gas

$PV=nRT$

For a gas

$P_{1}V_{1}=nRT_{1}$

Where, P = pressure

V = volume

T = temperature

Put the value in the equation

$10\times V=nR\times286$ ....(I)

When the temperature of the gas is increased

Then,

$P_{2}V_{2}=\dfrac{n}{2}RT_{2}$ ....(II)

Divided equation (I) by equation (II)

$\dfrac{P_{1}V}{P_{2}V}=\dfrac{nRT_{1}}{\dfrac{n}{2}RT_{2}}$

$\dfrac{10\times V}{P_{2}V}=\dfrac{nR\times286}{\dfrac{n}{2}R368}$

$P_{2}=\dfrac{10\times368}{2\times286}$

$P_{2}= 6.433\ atm$

$P_{2}=6.4\ atm$

Hence, The pressure of the remaining gas in the tank is 6.4 atm.

A physics professor demonstrates the Doppler effect by tying a 600 Hz sound generator to a 1.0-m-long rope and whirling it aroun

cluponka [151]

Answer:Highest frequency =618.89Hz

Lowest frequency=582.22Hz

Explanation:

The linear velocity of a sound generator is related to angular velocity and is given as

Vs = rω where

r = the radius of circular path = 1.0 m

ω is the angular velocity of the sound generator. = 100 rpm

1 rev/min = 0.10472 rad/s

100rpm =10.472 rad/ s

Vs = rω

= 1m x 10.472rad/ s= 10.472m/s

A) Highest frequency heard by a student in the classroom = Maximum frequency. Using the Doppler effect formulae,

f max = (v/ v-vs) fs

Where , v is the speed of the sound in air at 20 degrees celcius =

343 metres per second

vs is the linear velocity of the sound generator=10.472m/s

fs is the frequency of the sound generator= 600 Hz

f max = (343/ 343 - 10.472) x 600

=343/332.528) x600

=618.89Hz

B) Lowest frequency heard by a student in the classroom = Minimum frequency

f min = (v/ v+vs) fs

(343/ 343 + 10.472) x 600

=343/353.472) x 600

=582.22hz
