A dynamite blast at a quarry launches a rock straight upward, and 1.7 s later it is rising at a rate of 17 m/s. Assuming air res

istance has no effect on the rock, calculate its speed (a) at launch and (b) 4.9 s after launch.

Answer:

(a) $v_0= 34m/s$

(b) $v=14m/s$

Explanation:

We can derive the initial speed of the rock from the equation of the speed in function of the time:

$v=v_0-gt\\\\\implies v_0=v+gt$

Using the given values for the speed at time t=1.7s, we get:

$v_0=17m/s+(9.8m/s^{2})(1.7s)=34m/s$

In words, the speed of the rock at launch is 34m/s (a).

Next, we use this to calculate the speed at t=4.9s:

$v=v_0-gt\\\\v= 34m/s-(9.8m/s^{2})(4.9s)=-14m/s$

This means that the speed of the rock at 4.9s after the launch is 14m/s (b), and the negative sign means that it is moving downwards.

A tank has the shape of an inverted circular cone with height 16m and base radius 3m. The tank is filled with water to a height

rewona [7]

Answer:

$W=17085KJ$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height $H=16m$

Radius $R=3$

Height of water $H_w=9m$

Gravity $g=9.8m/s$

Density of water $\rho=1000kg/m^3$

Generally the equation for Volume of water is mathematically given by

$dv=\pi*r^2dy$

$dv=\frac{\piR^2}{H^2}(H-y)^2dy$

Where

y is a random height taken to define dv

Generally the equation for Work done to pump water is mathematically given by

$dw=(pdv)g (H-y)$

Substituting dv

$dw=(p(=\frac{\piR^2}{H^2}(H-y)^2dy))g (H-y)$

$dw=\frac{\rho*g*R^2}{H^2}(H-y)^3dy$

Therefore

$W=\int dw$

$W=\int(\frac{\rho*g*R^2}{H^2}(H-y)^3)dy$

$W=\rho*g*R^2}{H^2}\int((H-y)^3)dy)$

$W=\frac{1000*9.8*3.142*3^2}{9^2}[((9-y)^3)}^9_0$

$W=3420.84*0.25[2401-65536]$

$W=17084965.5J$

$W=17085KJ$

When making maps of the large-scale universe, astronomers estimate distances to the vast majority of galaxies by using:

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

<em>The comoving distance and the proper distance scale</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The comoving distance scale removes the effects of the expansion of the universe, which leaves us with a distance that does not change in time due to the expansion of space (since space is constantly expanding). The comoving distance and proper distance are defined to be equal at the present time; therefore, the ratio of proper distance to comoving distance now is 1. The scale factor is sometimes not equal to 1. The distance between masses in the universe may change due to other, local factors like the motion of a galaxy within a cluster. Finally, we note that the expansion of the Universe results in the proper distance changing, but the comoving distance is unchanged by an expanding universe.

a) Calculate the magnitude of displacement of the car in 40 seconds. b) During which part of the journey was the car acceleratin

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

a) 600 meters

b) between 0 and 10 seconds, and between 30 and 40 seconds.

c) the average of the magnitude of the velocity function is 15 m/s

Explanation:

a) In order to find the magnitude of the car's displacement in 40 seconds,we need to find the area under the curve (integral of the depicted velocity function) between 0 and 40 seconds. Since the area is that of a trapezoid, we can calculate it directly from geometry:

$Area \,\,Trapezoid=(\left[B+b]\,(H/2)\\displacement= \left[(40-0)+(30-10)\right] \,(20/2)=600\,\,m$

b) The car is accelerating when the velocity is changing, so we see that the velocity is changing (increasing) between 0 and 10 seconds, and we also see the velocity decreasing between 30 and 40 seconds.

Notice that between 10 and 30 seconds the velocity is constant (doesn't change) of magnitude 20 m/s, so in this section of the trip there is NO acceleration.

c) To calculate the average of a function that is changing over time, we do it through calculus, using the formula for average of a function:

$Average\,of\,f(x)=\frac{1}{b-a} \int\limits^b_a {f(x)} \, dx$

Notice that the limits of integration for our case are 0 and 40 seconds, and that we have already calculated the area under the velocity function (the integral) in step a), so the average velocity becomes:

$Avearage=\frac{600\,\,m}{40\,\,s}= 15\,\,\frac{m}s}$

Pourquoi doit on toujours préciser le référentiel dans le quel est étudié le mouvement d'un système?

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

The movement of an object depends on the reference frame, so it is important to predicate it.
