A rocket-driven sled running on a straight level track is used to investigate the physiological effects of large accelerations o

n humans. One such sled can attain a speed of 1000 rniles/hr in 1.8 sec starting from rest. (1 mile = 5280 ft) a. Assume the acceleration is constant and compare it to g. (g=9.8 m/s2 = 32 ft/ s2) b. What is the distance traveled in this time?

Answer:

A. a = 814.815 ft/s^2.

B. Distance, S = 320 ft.

Explanation:

Equations of motion

i. vf = vi + a*t

ii. S = vi*t + 1/2*(a*t)

iii. vf^2 = vi^2 + 2a*S

Given:

vi = 0 ft/s

vf = 1000 miles/hr

t = 1.8 s

g = 32 ft/ s2

Converting miles/hr to ft/s,

1 mile = 5280 ft

Also, 1 hr = 60 mins * 60s

= 3600 s

Therefore, 1000 miles/hr * 5280 ft/1 mile * 1 hr/3600 s

= 1466.7 ft/s.

A.

Using the i. Equation of motion,

1466.7 = 0 + a*1.8

a = 814.815 ft/s^2

Comparing a to g,

a = (814.815/32) * g

= 25.46 g

B.

Using the ii. Equation of motion,

S = 1/2 * (814.815) * (1.8)^2

= 1320 ft.

Two wheels have the same mass and radius of 4.4 kg and 0.48 m, respectively. One has (a) the shape of a hoop and the other (b) t
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

1) \sum T_{externalhoop}=0.4418Nm

2) \sum T_{externaldisc}=0.2209Nm

Explanation:

Using the second equation of angular motion we have

\theta =\omega _{o}t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^{2}

Since the wheels start from rest we ahve omega _{o}=0

Applying the given values in the equation we have

14=\frac{1}{2}\alpha \times 8^{2}\\\\\therefore \alpha =\frac{28}{64}=0.4375rad/s^{2}

Now by newton's second law of motion in angular motion we have

\sum T_{external}=I\alpha

1) For Hoop We have

I_{hoop}=Mr^{2}\\\\\therefore I_{hoop}=4.4\times(0.48)^{2}=1.01376kgm^{2}

Thus  

\sum T_{external}=1.01376\times 0.4375

\sum T_{external}=0.4418Nm

2)For disc We have

I_{disc}=\frac{Mr^{2}}{2}\\\\\therefore I_{hoop}=2.2\times(0.48)^{2}=0.506kgm^{2}

Thus  

\sum T_{external}=0.506\times 0.4375

\sum T_{external}=0.2209Nm

Pelo nossa observaçao do cotidiano,podmos perceber facilmente que se uma pedra for largada do alto de um predio , ele ira se des
dsp73

Answer:

Esses movimentos são movimentos naturais.

Explicação:

Se uma pedra cair do topo de um telhado ou edifício, a pedra se moverá em direção à terra, enquanto a fumaça produzida devido à queima da madeira vai para cima, então de acordo com Aristosteles esses tipos de movimento são chamados de movimento natural porque de acordo à definição de movimento natural que não requer nenhuma força, então esses dois movimentos também se movem na direção para baixo e para cima sem usar qualquer força, então podemos dizer que esses movimentos são naturais.
