A spherical helium filled balloon (B) with a hanging passenger cage being held by a single vertical cable (C) attached to Earth

(Cable is going from the cage to ground). If the total mass of the balloon and the cage is 200 kg and the radius of the balloon is 5 m, how much tension (at least), the cable could be able to support in order to keep the balloon from breaking away. (Density of air is approximately 1.225 kg/m3 .)

Answer:

The tension is  T  = 4326.7 \  N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  total mass is  m  =  200 \  kg

    The  radius is r = 5 \  m

     The  density of air is  \rho_a  =  1.225 \ kg/m^3

Generally the upward  force acting on the balloon is mathematically represented as

        F_N  =   T  + mg

=>     (\rho_a  *  V  *  g ) =   T  + mg

=>   T  =  (\rho_a  * V  *  g   )  - mg

Here V is the volume  of the spherical helium filled balloon which is mathematically represented as

      V  =  \frac{4}{3}  * \pi r^3

=>   V  =  \frac{4}{3}  * 3.142 *(5)^3

=>   V  = 523.67\  m^3

So

    T  = (1.225 *  523.67*  9.8 ) -  200 *  9.8

   T  = 4326.7 \  N

Danny lowers the sails on his boat. He paddles upstream at 19 km/hr. The current is still running downstream at 15 km/hr. What i
Molodets [167]

Answer:

4 km/hr

Explanation:

The computation of the actual velocity is shown below:

Because the path of its paddles is opposed to the current direction, the real velocity can be determined by deducting the current velocity to its velocity while paddling

So, the actual velocity is

= Upstream - downstream

= 19 km/hr - 15 km/hr

= 4 km/hr

As we can see it is in positive, so it is an upstream direction

a projectile is lunched with an initial speed of 60.0mm/s at an angle of 30.0° above the horizontal.The projectile lands on a hi
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

52 mm/s (approximately)

Explanation:

Given:

Initial speed of the projectile is, u=60.0\ mm/s

Angle of projection is, \theta=30.0\°

Time taken to land on the hill is, t=4\ s

In a projectile motion, there is acceleration only in the vertical direction which is equal to acceleration due to gravity acting vertically downward. There is no acceleration in the horizontal direction.

So, the velocity in the horizontal direction always remains the same.

The horizontal component of initial velocity is given as:

u_x=u\cos\theta\\u_x=60\times \cos(30)\\u_x=30\sqrt3\approx52\ mm/s

Now, the velocity in the vertical direction goes on decreasing and becomes 0 at the highest point of the trajectory. So, at the highest point, only horizontal component acts.

Therefore, the projectile's velocity at the highest point of its trajectory is equal to the horizontal component of initial velocity and thus is equal to 52 mm/s.

With what velocity Must a 0.53 kg softball be moving to be equal to the momentum of a 0.31 kg baseball moving at 21 m/s
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:12.28m/s

Explanation:

momentum of baseball =mass of baseball x velocity of baseball

Momentum of baseball =0.31x21

Momentum of baseball =6.51kgm/s

For a softball to have same momentum with the baseball we can say :momentum of baseball =mass of softball x velocity of softball

6.51=0.53 x velocity of softball

Velocity of softball =6.51/0.53

Velocity of softball =12.28m/s
