Answer:

You need the definition of acceleration (a=Vf-Vi/t) and 1 equation of linear motion (deltaX = Vi×t + 1/2×a×t^2). Since you know a is constant (gravity) and you know your initial Vi to be 40 m/s and your final velocity Vf to be zero (maximum height), then you can use thhe definition of acceleration to find time.

-9.81m/s^2 = (0-40m/s)/t

t = (-40)/(-9.81) s

t = 4.077s

Now that you have time, you should know all but deltaX in the equation of linear motion.

dX = (40m/s)(4.077s) + (1/2)(-9.81m/s^2)(4.077s)^2

dX = (163.099m) — (81.549m)

dX = 81.55m

Answer:

(a) Area(small piston)/Area(large piston) = 0.037

(b) h = 1336.36 cm = 13.36 m

Explanation:

(a)

The stress on the smaller piston is equally transmitted to the larger piston, in a hydraulic lift. Therefore,

Stress (small piston) = Stress (large piston)

Force (small piston)/Area (small piston) = Force (Large Piston)/Area (Large Piston)

Area(small piston)/Area(large piston) = Force (small piston)/Force(Large piston)

Area(small piston)/Area(large piston) = 550 N/(1500 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

Area(small piston)/Area(large piston) = 0.037

(b)

The work is also transmitted equally to the large piston. So,

Work(small piston) = Work(Large Piston)

Force(small piston).Displacement(small piston) = Force(large piston).Displacement(small piston)

(550 N)(h) = (1500 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(50 cm)

h = 735000 N.cm/550 N

h = 1336.36 cm = 13.36 m

A man pulls on his dog's leash to keep him from running after a bicycle. Which term best describes this example?

otez555 [7]

We know the answer doesn't have to do with force because we have not identified a positive or negative axis.

Depending on what the system we are evaluating is, the sign of the work can change.

If work is done on the system, it is negative, but if work is done by the system, it is positive.

If the system we are evaluating is the leash, the work is being done by the leash, and therefore, the work is positive.

If the system we are evaluating is the dog, the work is being done on the dog, and therefore, the work is negative.

At an instant when a soccer ball is in contact with the foot of the player kicking it, the horizontal or x component of the ball

Ymorist [56]

Answer:440.03 N

Explanation:

Given

horizontal component of acceleration $(a_x)=800 m/s^2$

vertical component of acceleration $(a_y)=880 m/s^2$

mass of ball =0.37 kg

Force in horizontal direction $=m\times a_x=0.37\times 800=296 N$

Force in vertical direction $=m\times a_y=0.37\times 880=325.6 N$

Therefore net force is

$F=F_x+F_y$

$|F|=\sqrt{296^2+325.6^2}$

|F|=440.03 N

The density of a glass is 2.5 g/cm3. if the glass breaks, what is the density of the smaller pieces

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

Density will remain the same since density is the relationship between mass and volume. As we can see in the equation below.

$Ro=m/V$

where:

Ro = density = 2.5 [g/cm³]

m = mass [g]

V = volume [cm³]

In such a way that when the glass is broken the small fragments retain the same density ratio. That is, each fragment has a small mass and a small volume. That's why the density remains the same.
