Answer:

a)Distance traveled during the first second = 4.905 m.

b)Final velocity at which the object hits the ground = 38.36 m/s

c)Distance traveled during the last second of motion before hitting the ground = 33.45 m

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion

             S = ut + 0.5at²

     Here u = 0, and a = g

              S = 0.5gt²

    Distance traveled during the first second ( t =1 )

              S = 0.5 x 9.81 x 1² = 4.905 m

   Distance traveled during the first second = 4.905 m.

b)  We have equation of motion

            v² = u² + 2as

      Here u = 0, s= 75 m and a = g

           v² = 0² + 2 x g x 75 = 150 x 9.81

           v = 38.36 m/s

      Final velocity at which the object hits the ground = 38.36 m/s

c) We have S = 0.5gt²

                   75 = 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

                    t = 3.91 s

   We need to find distance traveled last second

   That is

          S = 0.5 x 9.81 x 3.91² - 0.5 x 9.81 x 2.91² = 33.45 m

   Distance traveled during the last second of motion before hitting the ground = 33.45 m

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

<u> Power = 9.75 ×10^8\frac{kgm^2}{s^3}</u>

Explanation:

  • Power is rate of change of energy.
  • Here gravitational energy is transferred to kinetic energy of water at a definite rate.

For one second 650m^3 of water flows out down to 150m oh depth.

So, the energy at a height of 150m is transformed to kinetic energy.

for a second,

       650m^3 of water flows down ⇒ (1000kg/m^3 × 650m^3) = 6.5×10^5kg of warer flos down.

The total gravitational potential energy stored in water is

    = <u>mass of water × height× gravity</u>

    = 6.5 ×10^5 × 150 × 10 =  9.75 ×10^8\frac{kgm^2}{s^2}

As it is transformed in a second it is also equal to <u>Power.</u>

A truck is traveling east at 80 km/h. At an intersection 32 km ahead, a car is traveling north at 50 km/h. How long after this m
nirvana33 [79]

The time elapsed when the vehicles are closest to each other is 20 min.

The given parameters:

  • Speed of the truck, u = 80 km/h
  • Distance, d = 32 km
  • Speed of the car, v = 50 km/h

<h3>Principles of relative speed</h3>

The time elapsed when the cars are close to each other is calculated by applying the principles of relative speed.

(V_r) t = d\\\\V_r^2 = 50^2 + 80^2\\\\V_r =\sqrt{50^2 + 80^2} \\\\V_r = 94.34 \ km/h

94.34 t = 32\\\\t = \frac{32}{94.34} \\\\t = 0.34 \ hr\\\\t \approx 20 \min

Thus, the time elapsed when the vehicles are closest to each other is 20 min.

Help please! This question is driving me crazy
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

-10.8°, or 10.8° below the +x axis

Explanation:

The x component of the resultant vector is:

x = 3.14 cos(30.0°) + 2.71 cos(-60.0°)

x = 4.07

The y component of the resultant vector is:

y = 3.14 sin(30.0°) + 2.71 sin(-60.0°)

y = -0.777

Therefore, the angle between the resultant vector and the +x axis is:

θ = atan(y / x)

θ = atan(-0.777 / 4.07)

θ = -10.8°

The angle is -10.8°, or 10.8° below the +x axis.

A stone is catapulted at time t = 0, with an initial velocity of magnitude 19.9 m/s and at an angle of 39.9° above the horizonta
larisa [96]

Answer:

Part a)

x = 15.76 m

Part b)

y = 7.94 m

Part c)

x = 26.16 m

Part d)

y = 7.49 m

Part e)

x = 83.23 m

Part f)

y = -75.6 m

Explanation:

As we know that catapult is projected with speed 19.9 m/s

so here we have

v_x = 19.9 cos39.9

v_x = 15.3 m/s

similarly we have

v_y = 19.9 sin39.9

v_y = 12.76 m/s

Part a)

Horizontal displacement in 1.03 s

x = v_x t

x = (15.3)(1.03)

x = 15.76 m

Part b)

Vertical direction we have

y = v_y t - \frac{1]{2}gt^2

y = (12.76)(1.03) - 4.9(1.03)^2

y = 7.94 m

Part c)

Horizontal displacement in 1.71 s

x = v_x t

x = (15.3)(1.71)

x = 26.16 m

Part d)

Vertical direction we have

y = v_y t - \frac{1]{2}gt^2

y = (12.76)(1.71) - 4.9(1.71)^2

y = 7.49 m

Part e)

Horizontal displacement in 5.44 s

x = v_x t

x = (15.3)(5.44)

x = 83.23 m

Part f)

Vertical direction we have

y = v_y t - \frac{1]{2}gt^2

y = (12.76)(5.44) - 4.9(5.44)^2

y = -75.6 m
