A cannon fires a shell straight upward; 2.3 s after it is launched, the shell is moving upward with a speed of 17 m/s. Assuming

air resistance is negligible, find the speed (magnitude of velocity) in meters per second of the shell at launch and 5.4 s after the launch.

Answer:

The speed of the shell at launch and 5.4 s after the launch is 13.38 m/s it is moving towards the Earth.                    

Explanation:

Let u is the initial speed of the launch. Using first equation of motion as :

u=v-at

a=-g

u=v+gt\\\\u=17+9.8\times 2.3\\\\u=39.54\ m/s

The velocity of the shell at launch and 5.4 s after the launch is given by :

v=u-gt\\\\v=39.54-9.8\times 5.4\\\\v=-13.38\ m/s

So, the speed of the shell at launch and 5.4 s after the launch is 13.38 m/s it is moving towards the Earth.

What is the principle of potentiometer?​
kupik [55]

Answer:

The principle of a potentiometer is that the potential dropped across a segment of a wire of uniform cross-section carrying a constant current is directly proportional to its length. The potentiometer is a simple device used to measure the electrical potentials (or compare the e.m.f of a cell).

The gnaphosid spider Drassodes cupreus has evolved a pair of lensless eyes for detecting polarized light. Each eye is sensitive
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Part A

The intensity is  I = 618 W/m^2  

Part B

The intensity is  I_1= 81.884 W/m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The intensity of the light detected by first eye is I = 700 W/m^2

Now at initial state according the question the light  ray is perpendicular to the eye so it means that it is at 90° the eye

Now the first question is to obtain the intensity the first eye (the first in this case is the one focused on the light  )would detect when the head is rotated by 20°  its previous orientation

This  is mathematically evaluated  as

                   I = I_i cos^2 ( 20^o)

                    I = 700\  cos^2 (20)

                    I = 618 W/m^2  

Now the second  question is to obtain the intensity the first eye (the first eye  in this case is the one that is not  focused on  the light  )would detect when the head is rotated by 20°  its previous orientation

Now in this case the angle between the eye and the light is 90-20 = 70°

           So

               I_1 = 700 \  cos^2 (70)

                   I_1= 81.884 W/m^2

Percent Yield Lab Report
Vlada [557]

Based on the data obtained from the reaction, the following conclusions can be made;

  • according to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the product was higher than the reactant because of the mass of oxygen added during the combustion.
  • the percent yield is less than 100% because of loss in mass of either reactants or products.
  • the errors could have occurred during the weighing and transfer of reactants and products
  • repeated measurements are required in order to improve accuracy

<h3>What is the percent yield of the reaction?</h3>

Equation of the reaction is given below:

  • 2 Mg + O₂ ----> 2 MgO

Trial 1

Mass of empty crucible with lid = 26.698 (g)

Mass of Mg metal, crucible, and lid  = 27.040 (g)

Mass of MgO, crucible, and lid = 27.198 (g)

Mass of metal = 27.040 - 26.698 = 0.342

Mass of MgO = 27.198 - 26.698 = 0.500

<h3>Moles of Mg used</h3>

moles of Mg = mass/molar mass

  • molar mass of Mg = 24 g

moles of Mg = 0.342/24 = 0.01425

<h3>Moles of MgO expected</h3>

Based on the equation of reaction;

moles of MgO expected = 0.01425

moles of MgO produced =  mass/molar mass

  • molar mass of MgO = 40 g/mol

moles of MgO produced = 0.500/40 = 0.0125

<h3>Percent yield</h3>
  • Percent yield = (moles of MgO produced/moles of MgO expected) * 100%

Percentage yield = 0.0125/0.01425 * 100%

Percent yield of MgO = 87.7%

Trial 2

Mass of empty crucible with lid = 26.691 (g)

Mass of Mg metal, crucible, and lid = 27.099 (g)

Mass of MgO, crucible, and lid = 27.361 (g)

Mass of metal = 27.099 - 26.691 = 0.408

Mass of MgO = 27.361 - 26.691 = 0.670

<h3>Moles of Mg used</h3>

moles of Mg = mass/molar mass

  • molar mass of Mg = 24 g

moles of Mg = 0.408/24 = 0.0170

<h3>Moles of MgO expected</h3>

Based on the equation of reaction;

moles of MgO expected = 0.0170

  • moles of MgO produced =  mass/molar mass

molar mass of MgO = 40 g/mol

moles of MgO produced = 0.670/40 = 0.01675

<h3>Percent yield</h3>
  • Percent yield = (moles of MgO produced/moles of MgO expected) * 100%

Percent yield = 0.01675/0.0170 * 100%

Percent yield of MgO = 98.5%

Average percent yield = (87.7 + 98.5)% / 2

Average percent yield = 89.0%

Based on the data obtained from the reaction, the following conclusion can be made;

  • according to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the product was higher than the reactant because of the mass of oxygen added during the combustion.
  • the percent yield is less than 100% because of loss in mass of either reactants or products.
  • the errors could have occurred during the weighing and transfer of reactants and products
  • repeated measurements are required in order to improve accuracy

A record player turntable initially rotating at 3313 rev/min is braked to a stop at a constant rotational acceleration. The turn
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

(A) It will take 22 sec to come in rest

(b) Work done for coming in rest will be 0.2131 J              

Explanation:

We have given the player turntable initially rotating at speed of 33\frac{1}{3}rpm=33.333rpm=\frac{2\times 3.14\times 33.333}{60}=3.49rad/sec

Now speed is reduced by 75 %

So final speed \frac{3.49\times 75}{100}=2.6175rad/sec

Time t = 5.5 sec

From first equation of motion we know that '

\alpha =\frac{\omega -\omega _0}{t}=\frac{2.6175-3.49}{4}=-0.158rad/sec^2

(a) Now final velocity \omega =0rad/sec

So time t to come in rest  t=\frac{0-3.49}{-0.158}=22sec

(b) The work done in coming rest is given by

\frac{1}{2}I\left ( \omega ^2-\omega _0^2 \right )=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.035\times (0^2-3.49^2)=0.2131J
