A 730 N student stands in the middle of a frozen pond having a radius of 5.8 m. He is unable to get to the other side because of

a lack of friction between his shoes and the ice. To overcome this difficulty, he throws his 2.6 kg physics textbook horizontally toward the north shore at a speed of 6.1 m/s. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s². How long does it take him to reach the south shore? Answer in units.

Answer:27.35 s

Explanation:

Given

weight of man =730 N

mass of man m_1=\frac{730}{9.8}=74.48 kg

radius of pound r=5.8 m

mass of book m_2=2.6 kg

velocity of book v_2=6.1 m/s

let v_1 be the velocity of man

conserving momentum

0=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

0=74.48\times v_1+2.6\times 6.1

v_1=\frac{15.86}{74.48}=0.212 m/s

time taken by man to reach south end

t=\frac{5.8}{0.212}=27.35 s

Determine the amount of torque
malfutka [58]

Answer:

250Nm

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Length of the long pry bar  = 1m

Force acting on it  = 250N

Angle  = 90°

Unknown:

Amount of torque applied  = ?

Solution:

Torque is the turning force on a body that causes the rotation of the body.

The formula is given as:

 Torque  = Force x r Sin Ф  

r is the distance

 So;

   Torque  = 250 x 1 x sin 90  = 250Nm

A child throws a ball with an initial speed of 8.00 m/s at an angle of 40.0° above the horizontal. The ball leaves her hand 1.00
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

initial velocity, u = 8 m/s

vertical height, h = 1 m

θ = 40°

Let the horizontal distance is d and the time taken is t.

Use second equation of motion in vertical direction

h = ut + 1/2 at²

1 = 8 Sin 40 x t + 0.5 x 9.8 t²

1 = 5.14 t - 4.9t²

4.9t² - 5.14 t + 1 = 0

so, t = 0.26 s (smaller value)

So, the horizontal distance is

d = u cos 40 x t

d = 8 cos 40 x 0.26

d = 1.6 m
