Given that

Velocity of missile (v) = 20 m/s ,

Angle of missile (Θ) = 53°

Determine , Vertical component = v sin Θ

= 20 sin 53°

= 15.97 m/s

Questions E6 a& b and E7 a&b?

erica [24]

Explanation:

6a) Work = force × distance

W = Fd

W = (60 N) (10 m)

W = 600 J

6b) Change in energy = work

ΔKE = 600 J

7a) Kinetic energy is half the mass times the square of the velocity.

KE = ½ mv²

KE = ½ (0.4 kg) (25 m/s)²

KE = 125 J

7b) Work = change in energy. When the ball is stopped, it has zero kinetic energy.

W = ΔKE

W = 0 J − 125 J

W = -125 J

Calculate the mass (in SI units) of (a) a 160 lb human being; (b) a 1.9 lb cockatoo. Calculate the weight (in English units) of

kondaur [170]

Explanation:

1. Force applied on an object is given by :

F = W = mg

(a) A 160 lb human being, F = 160 lb

g = acceleration due to gravity, g = 32 ft/s²

$m=\dfrac{F}{g}$

$m=\dfrac{160\ lb}{32\ ft/s^2}$

m = 5 kg

(b) A 1.9 lb cockatoo, F = 1.9 lb

$m=\dfrac{F}{g}$

$m=\dfrac{1.9\ lb}{32\ ft/s^2}$

m = 0.059 kg

2. (a) A 2300 kg rhinoceros, m = 2300 kg

$W=2300\ kg\times 32\ ft/s^2=73600\ lb$

(b) A 22 g song sparrow, m = 22 g = 0.022 kg

$W=0.022\ kg\times 32\ ft/s^2=0.704\ lb$

Hence, this is the required solution.
