A war wolf is a device used during the middle ages to assault fortifications with large rocks. A simple trebuchet is constructed
Katarina [22]

Answer:v=41.23 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of heavy object m_1=52 kg

distance of m_1 from the axle r_1=14 cm

mass of rock m_2=123 gm

Length of rod =4.1 m

distance of m_2 from axle r_2=4.1-0.14=3.96 m

Net torque acting is

T_{net}=m_1gr_1-m_2gr_2

T_{net}=52\times 0.14\times g-0.123\times 3.96\times g

T_{net}=6.793\times 9.8

T_{net}=66.57 N-m

Work done by T_{net} is converted to rock kinetic Energy

thus

T_{net}\times \theta =\frac{mv^2}{2}

Where \theta =angle\ turned =\frac{\pi }{2}

v= velocity\ at\ launch

66.57\times \frac{\pi }{2}=\frac{0.123\times v^2}{2}

v^2=66.57\times \pi

v=\sqrt{1700.511}

v=41.23 m/s

A 0.105- kg hockey puck moving at 24 m/s is caught and held by a 75-kg goalie at rest. With what speed does the goalie slide on
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

<u><em>0.03 m/s</em></u>

Explanation:

<em>Applying law of conservation of momentum, </em>

  • <em>m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v</em>
  • <em>0.105(24) + 75(0) = (0.105 + 75)v</em>
  • <em>75.105v = 2.52</em>
  • <em>v = 2.52/75.105</em>
  • <em>v = </em><u><em>0.03 m/s</em></u>
