First, we calculate the horizontal and vertical components of the firing velocity.
Vx = 89cos(40)
Vx = 68.2 m/s
Vy = 89sin(40)
Vy = 57.2 m/s
The time of flight for the cannon ball can be obtained by dividing its horizontal distance covered by horizontal velocity.
t = 300/68.2
t = 4.40 s
Using 
s = ut + 0.5at²
for the vertical direction
s = 57.2 × 4.40 + (-9.81)(4.40)²
s = 61.8 m is the height at which the cannon ball hits the wall

Vo = 89 m/s
angle: 40°

=> Vox = Vo * cos 40° = 89 * cos 40°

=> Voy = Vo. sin 40° = 89 * sin 40°

x-movement: uniform => x =Vox * t = 89*cos(40)*t

x = 300 m => t = 300m / [89m/s*cos(40) = 4.4 s

y-movement: uniformly accelerated => y = Voy * t - g*t^2 /2

y = 89m/s * sin(40) * (4.4s) - 9.m/s^2 * (4.4)^2 / 2 = 156.9 m = height the ball hits the wall.

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The initial acceleration is 0,221 m/s^2.

Explanation:

Fcar = Fairfriction\\m*a = 0.5*A*c*density*v^2\\a = 0.5*A*c*density*v^2 / 1000 kg = 0.5*2.10m^2*0.260*1.295kg/m^3*(25 m/s)^2 / 1000 kg = 0,221 m/s^2

A train starts from a station with a constant acceleration of at = 0.40 m/s2. A passenger arrives at the track time t = 6.0s aft
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

4.8 m/s  

Explanation:

When she catches the train,

  1. They will have travelled the same distance.and
  2. Their speeds will be equal

The formula for the distance covered by the train  is

d = ½at² = ½ × 0.40t² = 0.20t²

The passenger starts running at a constant speed 6 s later, so her formula is

d = v(t - 6.0)

The passenger and the train will have covered the same distance when she has caught it, so

(1) 0.20t² = v(t - 6.0)

The speed of the train is

v = at = 0.40t

The speed of the passenger is v.

(2) 0.40t = v

Substitute (2) into (1)

0.20t² = 0.40t(t - 6.0) = 0.40t² - 2.4 t

Subtract 0.20t² from each side

0.20t² - 2.4t = 0

Factor the quadratic

t(0.20t - 2.4) = 0

Apply the zero-product rule

t =0     0.20t - 2.4 = 0

                   0.20t = 2.4

(3)                      t = 12

We reject t = 0 s.

Substitute (3) into (2)

0.40 × 12 = v

            v = 4.8 m/s

The slowest constant speed at which she can run and catch the train is 4.8 m/s.

A plot of distance vs time shows that she will catch the train 6 s after starting. Both she and the train will have travelled 28.8 m. Her average speed is 28.8 m/6 s = 4.8 m/s.

A 60.0-kg man stands at one end of a 20.0-kg uniform 10.0-m long board. How far from the man is the center of mass of the man-bo
timama [110]

Answer:

x=1.25m

Explanation:

The <em>Center of mass </em>of the system is defined as the point where whole mass of the body is appeared to be  concentrated.

The center of mass of the system is given by

         x=  \frac{m1x1+m2x2}{m1+m2}      

where m1 is mass of man =60 kg

           m2 mass of board =20 kg

let the man be at the origin  x1 =0 , x2 =5m

by substituting in above formula

x =\frac{(60*0)+(20*5)}{60+20} = \frac{100}{80} =1.25 m

x=1.25m

So the center of mass of the system is at 1.25 m from man.
