a) 2.64 s
We can solve this part of the problem by using the following SUVAT equation:
where
s is the displacement of the stone
u is the initial velocity
t is the time
a is the acceleration
We must be careful to the signs of s, u and a. Taking upward as positive direction, we have:
- s (displacement) negative, since it is downward: so s = -75.0 m
- u (initial velocity) positive, since it is upward: +15.5 m/s
- a (acceleration) negative, since it is downward: so a= g = -9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)
Substituting into the equation,
Solving the equation, we have two solutions: t = -5.80 s and t = 2.84 s. Since the negative solution has no physical meaning, the stone reaches the bottom of the cliff 2.64 s later.
b) 10.4 m/s
The speed of the stone when it reaches the bottom of the cliff can be calculated by using the equation:
where again, we must be careful to the signs of the various quantities:
- u (initial velocity) positive, since it is upward: +15.5 m/s
- a (acceleration) negative, since it is downward: so a = g = -9.8 m/s^2
Substituting t = 2.64 s, we find the final velocity of the stone:
where the negative sign means that the velocity is downward: so the speed is 10.4 m/s.
c) 4.11 s
In this case, we can use again the equation:
where
s is the displacement of the package
u is the initial velocity
t is the time
a is the acceleration
We have:
s = -105 m (vertical displacement of the package, downward so negative)
u = +5.40 m/s (initial velocity of the package, which is the same as the helicopter, upward so positive)
a = g = -9.8 m/s^2
Substituting into the equation,
Which gives two solutions: t = -5.21 s and t = 4.11 s. Again, we discard the first solution since it is negative, so the package reaches the ground after
t = 4.11 seconds.
Answer:
elastic force and weight are related to the acceleration of the System.
Explanation:
The relationship between these two forces can be found with Newton's second law.
- W = m a
K x - m g = m a
We see that elastic force and weight are related to the acceleration of the System.
If a harmonic movement is desired, an extra force that increases the elastic force is applied, but to begin the movement this force is eliminated, in general , if the relationship between this external and elastic force is desired, the only requirement is that it be small for harmonic movement to occur
Answer:
B. QC > 0; QH < 0
Explanation:
Given that there are two reservoir of energy.
Sign convention for heat and work :
1.If the heat is adding to the system then it is taken as positive and if heat is going out from the system then it is taken as negative.
2. If the work is done on the system then it is taken as negative and if the work is done by the system then it is taken as positive.
From hot reservoir heat is going out that is why it is taken as negative
From cold reservoir heat is coming inside the reservoir that is why it is taken as positive
That is why the answer will be
,
