A 1 900-kg pile driver is used to drive a steel I-beam into the ground. The pile driver falls 4.00 m before coming into contact

with the top of the beam, and it drives the beam 15.8 cm farther into the ground before coming to rest. Using energy considerations, calculate the average force the beam exerts on the pile driver while the pile driver is brought to rest.

Answer:

471392.4 N

Explanation:

From the question,

Just before contact with the beam,

mgh = Fd.................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the beam, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height. F =  average Force on the beam, d = distance.

make f the subject of the equation

F = mgh/d................ Equation 2

Given: m = 1900 kg, h = 4 m, d = 15.8 = 0.158 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2

F = 1900(4)(9.8)/0.158

F = 471392.4 N

Calculate the molar heat capacity of a monatomic non-metallic solid at 298K which is characterized by an Einstein temperature of
Ratling [72]

Answer: 5.5 ×10^-2 ×3R. Non metals that are solid at room temperature has mono atomic atoms that has only 3 translational modes.

This is why their constant volume molar heat capacities are measured in multiples of 3R.

A green hoop with mass mh = 2.4 kg and radius Rh = 0.14 m hangs from a string that goes over a blue solid disk pulley with mass
sineoko [7]

Answer:

a). linear acceleration of the hoop and block =  3.2895 <u>m</u>

                                                                                            s²

c). magnitude of the angular acceleration of the disk pulley = 41.119 <u>rad</u>

                                                                                                                  s²

d). tensions in the string between the block and disk pulley = 11.842 N

     tensions in the string between  the hoop and disk pulley = 15.625 N

check the pictures below for further explanation and for the remaining answers. I hope it helps you. Thank you

Explanation:

Start by writing "F=ma" equations for each of the things that moves. Also, since some of the objects (the pulley and the orange sphere) rotate, you should write "τ = Iα" equations (net torque = moment of inertia × angular acceleration) for those. In the end, you should have enough equations that you can combine them and solve for the desired quantities.

First, the hoop. There's no indication that it rotates, so we don't need a "τ = Iα" equation for it; just do "F=ma". The hoop has gravity ((mhoop)g) pulling down, and the tension in the vertical string (call it "T_v") pulling up.

A cannon is shot from the ground with a speed of 100 m/s at an unknown angle, if it
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The angle of the launch is 17.09 degrees.

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial speed of a cannon is 100 m/s

It is launched at some angle and it lands after being in the air for 6 s.

We need to find the angle of the launch.

The time taken by the projectile to reach the ground is called the time of flight. It is given by the formula as follows :

T=\dfrac{2u\sin\theta}{g}

Here, \theta = launch angle

\sin\theta=\dfrac{Tg}{2u}\\\\\sin\theta=\dfrac{6\times 9.8}{2\times 100}\\\\\theta=\sin^{-1}(0.294)\\\\\theta=17.09^{\circ}

Hence, the angle of the launch is 17.09 degrees.

A car is moving at constant velocity +48.8 m/s along a straight highway. Suddenly the driver spots a stalled vehicle 378.7 m ahe
Katen [24]

Answer:

a = - 3.14[m/s^2]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following kinematic equation:

v_{f} ^{2}= v_{o} ^{2}+2*a*dx\\where:\\v_{f} = final velocity = 0 [m/s]\\v_{o}= initial velocity = 48.8 [m/s]\\ a = acceleration [m/s^2]\\dx = displacement [m]\\

Now replacing:

0 = 48.8^{2}+2*a*(378.7) \\-2381.44 = 757.4*a\\a = -3.14[m/s^2]

The negative sign means the vehicle slows down.
