A toy cannon uses a spring to project a 5.24-g soft rubber ball. The spring is originally compressed by 5.01 cm and has a force

constant of 8.08 N/m. When the cannon is fired, the ball moves 15.8 cm through the horizontal barrel of the cannon, and the barrel exerts a constant friction force of 0.031 0 N on the ball.With what speed does the projectile leave the barrel of the cannon?

Answer:

Speed will be equal to 1.40 m/sec

Explanation:

Mass of the rubber ball m = 5.24 kg = 0.00524 kg

Spring is compressed by 5.01 cm

So x = 5.01 cm = 0.0501 m

Spring constant k = 8.08 N/m

Frictional force f = 0.031 N

Distance moved by ball d = 15.8 cm = 0.158 m

Energy gained by spring

KE=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 8.08\times 0.0501^2=0.0101J

Energy lost due to friction

W=Fd=0.031\times 0.158=0.0048J

So remained energy to move the ball = 0.0101 - 0.0048 = 0.0052 J

This energy will be kinetic energy

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=0.0052

\frac{1}{2}\times 0.00524\times v^2=0.0052

v = 1.40 m/sec

AveGali [126]

Answer:

0.0979 N/c

Explanation:

Electric field, E is given as a product of resistivity and current density

E=jP where P is resistivity and j is current density

But the current density is given as

j=\frac {I}{A} where I is current and A is area and A=\pi r^{2}

Substituting this into the first equation then E=P\times \frac {I}{\pi r^{2}}

Given diameter of 0.259 cm= 0.00259 m and the radius will be half of it which is 0.001295 m

E=1.72\times 10^{-8}\times \frac {30}{\pi \times 0.001295^{2}}=9.79\times 10^{-2} N/c=0.0979 N/c

A 1100 kg sports car accelerates from 0m/s to 32m/s in 10 seconds. What is the average power of the engine?
timurjin [86]

Answer:

The average power of the engine of the sports car is 56.32 kW

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the sports car, m = 1100 kg

initial velocity of the sports car, u = 0 m/s

final velocity of the sports car, v = 32 m/s

time of motion, t = 10 s

The kinetic energy of the car is given by;

K.E = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

K.E = ¹/₂ x 1100 x 32²

K.E = 563200 J

The average power of the engine of the sports car is given by;

Pavg = Energy / time

Pavg = 563200 / 10

Pavg = 56320 W

Pavg = 56.32 kW

Therefore, the average power of the engine of the sports car is 56.32 kW
