Scientists are experimenting with a kind of gun that may eventually be used to fire payloads directly into orbit. In one test, t

his gun accelerates a 3.8-kg projectile from rest to a speed of 9.3 × 103 m/s. The net force accelerating the projectile is 9.3 × 105 N. How much time is required for the projectile to come up to speed?

Answer:

t=0.038s

Explanation:

Project mass m=3.8 kg

Initial speed vi= 0m/s

Final speed vf= 9.3×10³ m/s

Force F=9.3×10⁵N

To find

Time t

Solution

From Newtons second law we know that

∑F=ma

Where m is mass

a is acceleration

We can write this equation as

∑F=m(Δv/Δt)

=m\frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{t}

Rearrange this equation to find time t

So

t=m\frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{F}

Substitute the given values

t=3.8kg\frac{9.3*10^3m/s-0}{9.3*10^5N} \\t=0.038s

Yanka [14]

Answer:

a. A = 0.1656 m

b. % E = 1.219

Explanation:

Given

mB = 4.0 kg , mb = 50.0 g = 0.05 kg , u₁ = 150  m/s , k = 500 N / m

a.

To find the amplitude of the resulting SHM using conserver energy

ΔKe + ΔUg + ΔUs = 0

¹/₂ * m * v²  -  ¹/₂ * k * A² = 0

A = √ mB * vₓ² / k

vₓ = mb * u₁ / mb + mB

vₓ = 0.05 kg * 150 m / s / [0.050 + 4.0 ] kg = 1.8518

A = √ 4.0 kg * (1.852 m/s)²   /   (500 N / m)

A = 0.1656 m

b.

The percentage of kinetic energy

%E = Es / Ek

Es = ¹/₂ * k * A² = 500 N / m * 0.1656²m = 13.72 N*0.5

Ek = ¹/₂ * mb * v² = 0.05 kg * 150² m/s = 1125 N

% E = 13.72 / 1125 = 0.01219 *100

% E = 1.219

The whale shark is the largest of all fish and can have the mass of three adult
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

m = 20,000 kg

Explanation:

Force, F=2.5\times 10^4\ N

Acceleration of the shark, a=1.25\ m/s^2

It is required to find the mass of the shark. Let m is the mass. Using second law of motion to find it as follows :

F = ma

Putting the value of F and a to find m

m=\dfrac{F}{a}\\\\m=\dfrac{2.5\times 10^4}{1.25}\\\\m=20,000\ kg

So, the shark's mass is 20,000 kg.

Two Force one of 12 Newton and another 24 Newton acts at 90 degree with each other find the resultant of two force and its direc
Leona [35]

Answer:

Fr = 26.83 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the Pythagorean theorem, since the forces are vector quantities, that is, they have magnitude and density. Therefore the Pythagorean theorem is suitable for the solution of this problem.

F_{r}=\sqrt{(12)^{2}+(24)^{2}  } \\F_{r}=26.83[N]
