Calculate the pressure exerted by a 4000N camel on the sand. The camel’s feet have a
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The pressure exerted by camel feet is <u>2000 N/m²</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Solution</u> :</h3>

Here, we have given that ;

  • Force applied on camel feet = 4000 N
  • Total area of camel feet = 2 m²

We need to find the pressure exerted by camel feet.

As we know that :

{\longrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{Pressure= \dfrac{Area}{Force}}}}}

Substituting all the given values in the formula to find the pressure exerted by camel feet.

\begin{gathered} \begin{array}{l} {\longrightarrow{\sf{Pressure= \dfrac{Area}{Force}}}} \\  \\ {\longrightarrow{\sf{Pressure= \dfrac{4000}{2}}}}  \\  \\ {\longrightarrow{\sf{Pressure= \cancel{\dfrac{4000}{2}}}}} \\  \\ {\longrightarrow{\sf{Pressure= 2000 \: N/{m}^{2}}}} \\  \\\star \:  \small\underline{\boxed{\sf{\purple{Pressure= 2000 \: N/{m}^{2}}}}} \end{array}\end{gathered}

Hence, the pressure exerted by camel feet is 2000 N/m².

A boat, whose speed in still water is 8.0 m/s, crosses a river with a current of 6.0 m/s. If the boat heads perpendicular to the
kirill [66]

Answer: D

Rs = 10.0 m/s

The speed of the boat relative to an observer standing on the shore as it crosses the river is 10.0m/s

Explanation:

Since the boat is moving perpendicular to the current of the river, the speed of the boat has two components.

i. 8.0m/s in the direction perpendicular to the current

ii. 6.0m/s in the direction of the current.

So, the resultant speed can be derived by using the equation;

Rs = √(Rx^2 + Ry^2)

Taking

Ry = 8.0m/s

Rx = 6.0m/s

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Rs = √(6.0^2 + 8.0^2)

Rs = √(36+64) = √100

Rs = 10.0 m/s

The speed of the boat relative to an observer standing on the shore as it crosses the river is 10.0m/s

Was the cannonball able to hit its target of 50 meters when the initial velocity was 20 m/s? Why?/Why Not?
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The cannon ball was not able to hit the target because the target is located at a height of 50 m whereas the cannon ball was only above to get to a height of 20 m.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height to which the target is located = 50 m

Initial velocity (u) = 20 m/s

To know whether or not the cannon ball is able to hit the target, we shall determine the maximum height to which the cannon ball attained. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 20 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 0 (at maximum height)

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Maximum height (h) =?

v² = u² – 2gh (since the ball is going against gravity)

0² = 20² – (2 × 10 × h)

0 = 400 – 20h

Collect like terms

0 – 400 = – 20h

– 400 = – 20h

Divide both side by – 20

h = – 400 / – 20

h = 20 m

Thus, the the maximum height to which the cannon ball attained is 20 m.

From the calculations made above, we can conclude that the cannon ball was not able to hit the target because the target is located at a height of 50 m whereas the cannon ball was only above to get to a height of 20 m.
