During your summer internship for an aerospace company, you are asked to design a small research rocket. The rocket is to be lau

nched from rest from the earth's surface and is to reach a maximum height of 940 m above the earth's surface. The rocket's engines give the rocket an upward acceleration of 16.0 m/s2 during the time T that they fire. After the engines shut off, the rocket is in free fall. Ignore air resistance.What must be the value of T in order for the rocket to reach the required altitude?

A 103 kg physics professor has fallen into the Grand Canyon. Luckily, he managed to grab a branch and is now hanging 93 m below
siniylev [52]

Answer:

125.83672 seconds

Explanation:

P = Power of the horse = 1 hp = 746 W (as it is not given we have assumed the horse has the power of 1 hp)

m = Mass of professor = 103 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = Height of professor = 93 m

Work done would be equal to the potential energy

W=mgh\\\Rightarrow W=103\times 9.8\times 93\\\Rightarrow W=93874.2\ J

Power is given by

P=\frac{W}{t}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{W}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{93874.2}{746}\\\Rightarrow t=125.83672\ seconds

The time taken by the horse to pull the professor is 125.83672 seconds

Water flows into a horizontal, cylindrical pipe at 1.4 m/s. the pipe then narrows until its diameter is halved. what is the pres
inna [77]

According to the Bernoulli's equation,the pressure difference between the wide and narrow ends of the pipe is given by

\Delta P= \frac{1}{2} \rho ( v^2_{2} - v^2_{1} )

Here,  v_{1} is the velocity of water through wide ends of cylindrical pipe and v_{2} is the velocity of water through narrow ends of cylindrical pipe.

Given, v_{1} =1.4 m/s

Now from equation continuity,

v_{1} A_{1} = v_{2} A_{2}.

Here, A_{1} and A_{2} are cross- sectional areas of wide and narrow ends of cylindrical pipe.

As pipe is circular, so

v_{1} \pi r^2_{1} = v_{2} \pi r^2_{2}.

At the second point, the diameter is halved, which means the radius is also halved. Therefore,

v_{1} r^2_{1} = v_{2}(\frac{1}{2} r_{1})^2 \\\\ v_{2} = 4 v_{1}

v_{2} = 4 \times 1.4 = 5.6 m/s

Substituting these values  with the density of water is 1000 \ kg/m^3 in pressure difference formula we get.

\Delta P= \frac{1}{2} \rho ( v^2_{2} - v^2_{1} )=\frac{1}{2}\times 1000 kg/m^3(5.6^2-1.4^2)\\\\ \Delta P = 14700\ Pa

An observer stands 24.7 m behind a marksman practicing at a rifle range. The marksman fires the rifle horizontally, the speed of
GaryK [48]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     Velocity of bullet, c_{p} = 814.8 m/s

    Observer distance from marksman, d = 24.7 m

Let us assume that time necessary for report of rifle to reach the observer is t and will be calculated as follows.

               t = \frac{24.7}{343}      (velocity in air = 343 m/s)

                 = 0.072 sec

Now, before the observer hears the report the distance traveled by the bullet is as follows.

               d_{b} = c_{b} \times t

                          = 814.8 \times 0.072

                          = 58.66

                          = 59 (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that each bullet will travel a distance of 59 m.
