A very strong, but inept, shot putter puts the shot straight up vertically with an initial velocity of 11.1 m/s. How long does h

e have to get out of the way if the shot was released at a height of 2.27 m, and he is 1.96 m tall?

We need to use the kinematic equation
S=ut+(1/2)at^2
where
S=displacement (+=up, in metres)
u=initial velocity (m/s)
t=time (seconds)
a=acceleration (+=up, in m/s^2)

Substitute values
S=displacement = 1.96-2.27 = -0.31 m (so that shot does not hit his head)
u=11.1
a=-9.81 (acceleration due to gravity)

-0.31=11.1t+(1/2)(-9.81)t^2
Rearrange and solve for t
-4.905t^2+11.1t-0.31=0
t=-0.02756 or t=2.291 seconds 
Reject the negative root to give
t=2.29 seconds (to 3 significant figures)

A solid sphere of weight 42.0 N rolls up an incline at an angle of 36.0°. At the bottom of the incline the center of mass of the
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Part a)

KE = 77.95 J

Part b)

L = 3.16 m

Part c)

distance L is independent of the mass of the sphere

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that rotational kinetic energy of the sphere is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}I\omega_2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we will have

KE = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mR^2)(\frac{v}{R})^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we will have

KE = \frac{1}{5} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = \frac{7}{10} mv^2

KE = \frac{7}{10}(\frac{42}{9.81})(5.10^2)

KE = 77.95 J

Part b)

By mechanical energy conservation law we know that

Work done against gravity = initial kinetic energy of the sphere

So we will have

mgLsin\theta = KE

\frac{42}{9.81}(9.81)L sin36 = 77.95

L = 3.16 m

Part c)

by equation of energy conservation we know that

\frac{7}{10}mv^2 = mgL sin\theta

so here we can see that distance L is independent of the mass of the sphere

A block whose weight is 45.8 N rests on a horizontal table. A horizontal force of 36.6 N is applied to the block. The coefficien
Liula [17]

Answer:

Yes it will move and a= 4.19m/s^2

Explanation:

In order for the box to move it needs to overcome the maximum static friction force

Max Static Friction = μFn(normal force)

plug in givens

Max Static friction = 31.9226

Since 36.6>31.9226, the box will move

Mass= Wieght/g which is 45.8/9.8= 4.67kg

Fnet = Fapp-Fk

= 36.6-16.9918

=19.6082

=ma

Solve for a=4.19m/s^2

Given that ethylene has a λmax of 175nm, butadiene has a λmax of 220nm, and 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene has a λmax or 215nm, what is
Vika [28.1K]

The λmax of 2,3,4-trimethylhexatriene is 280 nm.

Ethylene has a λmax of 175nm.

Butadiene has a λmax of 220nm.

2-methyl-1,3-butadiene has a λmax or 215nm.

1,3,5-hexatriene has a λmax of 258nm.

Woodward's rules, sometimes known as Woodward-Fieser rules (after Louis Fieser) and named after Robert Burns Woodward, are a number of sets of empirically developed principles that aim to forecast the wavelength of the absorption maximum (max) in an ultraviolet-visible spectrum of a certain molecule.

By using the Woodward Fieser rule,

R- (Alkyl Group) .... +5 nm = 5 × 2 = 10

RO- (Alkoxy Group) .. +6 = 6 × 2 = 12

Adding 22nm to the λmax of 1,3,5-hexatriene as it has 2 alkyl groups and 2 alkoxy groups to form 2,3,4-trimethylhexatriene.

The λmax of 2,3,4-trimethylhexatriene is 280 nm.
