You are in a hot air balloon (yes, another balloon problem!) rising from the ground at a constant velocity of 2.00 m/s upward. t

o celebrate the takeoff, you open a bottle of champagne, expelling the cork with a horizontal velocity of 6.60 m/s relative to the balloon. when opened, the bottle is 5.90 m above the ground. what is the initial speed of the cork, as seen by your friend on the ground?

If all you need is the initial speed of the cork, you can solve this using only two of your given:
2.00 m.s upward and 6.60 m.s horizontally.

If you take in consideration the movement of the cork, you know that it was both going up and forward at the same time, this means that it was moving at a diagonal direction. Now you can solve this by using the Pythagorean theorem where: 

c =  \sqrt{ a^{2} +  b^{2}  }

Why? Because the vertical and the horizontal motion creates a movement that is diagonal, which when put in a free-body diagram, creates a right triangle. 

Going back to your problem, when applying this, the diagonal of a right triangle is the hypotenuse, so this is what you are looking for. The horizontal and vertical motion will represent the other 2 sides of the triangle. 

Now let's put that into your formula:

c = \sqrt{ a^{2} + b^{2} }

Vi = \sqrt{ Vx^{2} + Vy^{2} }

Where: Vx is your horizontal velocity
             Vy is your vertical velocity
             Vi  is your initial velocity

Now let's put in your given:

Vi = \sqrt{ Vx^{2} + Vy^{2} }
Vi = \sqrt{ 6.60^2} + 2.00^{2} }
Vi = \sqrt{ 43.56 + 4.00 }
Vi = \sqrt{ 47.56 }
Vi = 6.8964 m/s

So your initial velocity is 6.8964 m/s or 6.90 m/s

A 100-kg tackler moving at a speed of 2.6 m/s meets head-on (and holds on to) an 92-kg halfback moving at a speed of 5.0 m/s. Pa
DIA [1.3K]

Given that,

Mass of trackler, m₁ = 100 kg

Speed of trackler, u₁ = 2.6 m/s

Mass of halfback, m₂ = 92 kg

Speed of halfback, u₂ = -5 m/s (direction is opposite)

To find,

Mutual speed immediately after the collision.

Solution,

The momentum of the system remains conserved in this case. Let v is the mutual speed after the collision. Using conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{100\times 2.6+92\times (-5)}{(100+92)}\\\\V=-1.04\ m/s

So, the mutual speed immediately after the collision is 1.04 m/s but in opposite direction.

Which is not a simple harmonic motion (S.H.M.) (a) Simple Pendulum (b) Projectile motion (c) None (d) Spring motion
Scrat [10]

Answer:

b) Projectile MOTION

Explanation:

SHM is periodic motion or to and fro motion of a particle about its mean position in a straight line

In this type of motion particle must be in straight line motion

So here we can say

a) Simple Pendulum : it is a straight line to and fro motion about mean position so it is a SHM

b) Projectile motion : it is a parabolic path in which object do not move to and fro about its mean position So it is not SHM

d) Spring Motion : it is a straight line to and fro motion so it is also a SHM

So correct answer will be

b) Projectile MOTION

Students perform a set of experiments by placing a block of mass m against a spring, compressing the spring a distance x along a
Verizon [17]

Increasing the angle of inclination of the plane decreases the velocity of the block as it leaves the spring.

  • The statement that indicates how the relationship between <em>v</em> and <em>x</em> changes is;<u> As </u><u><em>x</em></u><u> increases, </u><u><em>v</em></u><u> increases, but the relationship is no longer linear and the values of </u><u><em>v</em></u><u> will be less for the same value of </u><u><em>x</em></u><u>.</u>

Reasons:

The energy given  to the block by the spring = \mathbf{0.5  \cdot k  \cdot x^2}

According to the principle of conservation of energy, we have;

On a flat plane, energy given to the block = 0.5  \cdot k  \cdot x^2 = kinetic energy of

block = 0.5  \cdot m  \cdot v^2

Therefore;

0.5·k·x² = 0.5·m·v²

Which gives;

x² ∝ v²

x ∝ v

On a plane inclined at an angle θ, we have;

The energy of the spring = \mathbf{0.5  \cdot k  \cdot x^2}

  • The force of the weight of the block on the string, F = m \cdot g  \cdot sin(\theta)

The energy given to the block = 0.5 \cdot k \cdot x^2 - m \cdot g  \cdot sin(\theta) = The kinetic energy of block as it leaves the spring = \mathbf{0.5  \cdot m  \cdot v^2}

Which gives;

0.5 \cdot k \cdot x^2 - m \cdot g  \cdot sin(\theta) = 0.5  \cdot m  \cdot v^2

Which is of the form;

a·x² - b = c·v²

a·x² + c·v² = b

Where;

a, b, and <em>c</em> are constants

The graph of the equation a·x² + c·v² = b  is an ellipse

Therefore;

  • As <em>x</em> increases, <em>v</em> increases, however, the value of <em>v</em> obtained will be lesser than the same value of <em>x</em> as when the block is on a flat plane.

<em>Please find attached a drawing related to the question obtained from a similar question online</em>

<em>The possible question options are;</em>

  • <em>As x increases, v increases, but the relationship is no longer linear and the values of v will be less for the same value of x</em>
  • <em>The relationship is no longer linear and v will be more for the same value of x</em>
  • <em>The relationship is still linear, with lesser value of v</em>
  • <em>The relationship is still linear, with higher value of v</em>
  • <em>The relationship is still linear, but vary inversely, such that as x increases, v decreases</em>
