A cheetah can run at a maximum speed

Physics
1 answer:
saw5 [17]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

10.6 s

Explanation:

First of all, let's convert both speeds into m/s:

- Cheetah: v_c = 95.9 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=26.6 m/s

- Gazelle: v_g =72.3 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=20.1 m/s

Taking as reference the position x = 0, the position of the cheetah at time t is

x_c(t) = v_c t

while the position of the gazelle, which starts 68.8 m ahead, is

x_g(t) = 68.8 + v_g t

The cheetah catches the gazelle when the two positions are equal:

x_c = x_g\\v_c t = 68.8 + v_g t

and substituting the speeds and solving for t, we find the time at which the cheetah reaches the gazelle:

26.6t = 68.8 + 20.1 t\\6.5 t = 68.8\\t=\frac{68.8}{6.5}=10.6 s

A wad of clay of mass m1 = 0.49 kg with an initial horizontal velocity v1 = 1.89 m/s hits and adheres to the massless rigid bar
notka56 [123]

Answer:

<h2>The angular velocity just after collision is given as</h2><h2>\omega = 0.23 rad/s</h2><h2>At the time of collision the hinge point will exert net external force on it so linear momentum is not conserved</h2>

Explanation:

As per given figure we know that there is no external torque about hinge point on the system of given mass

So here we will have

L_i = L_f

now we can say

m_1v_1\frac{L}{2} = (m_2L^2 + m_1(\frac{L}{2})^2)\omega

so we will have

0.49(1.89)(0.45) = (2.13(0.90)^2 + 0.49(0.45)^2)\omega

\omega = 0.23 rad/s

Linear momentum of the system is not conserved because at the time of collision the hinge point will exert net external force on the system of mass

So we can use angular momentum conservation about the hinge point
