Answer:
a) 39.37 m
b) 26.25 m
Explanation:
Given
speed of the roller coaster, v = 100 km/h = 100 * (1000/3600) m/s = 27.78 m/s
Using the law of conservation of energy.
Potential Energy = Kinetic Energy
mgh = 1/2mv²
gh = 1/2v²
h = v²/2g
h = 27.78² / 2 * 9.8
h = 771.7284 / 19.6
h = 39.37 m
Also,
kmg - mg = mv²/p
kg - g = v²/p
p = v²/g(k - 1)
p = 27.78² / 9.8(4 - 1)
p = 771.7284 / 29.4
p = 26.25 m
Therefore, the height of the roller coaster is 39.37 m and the radius of curvature required is 26.25 m
Answer:
v = 8.72 m/s
Explanation:
To find the speed of the raindrop joint to the mosquito, you take into account the momentum conservation law for an inelastic collision. Before the collision the total momentum of raindrop and mosquito must be equal to the total momentum of both raindrop and mosquito after the collision.
(1)
v1: speed of the mosquito before the collision= 0 m/s (it is at rest)
v2: speed of the raindrop before the collision = 8.9 m/s
m1: mass of the mosquito
m2: mass of the raindrop = 50m1 (50 time more massive that the mosquito)
v: speed of both raindrop and mosquito after the collision
You solve the equation (1) for v and replace the values of the rest of the parameters:

hence, after the inelastic collision the speed of the raindrop andmosquito is 8.72 m/s
Answer:
4.17 m/s
Explanation:
To solve this problem, let's start by analyzing the vertical motion of the pea.
The initial vertical velocity of the pea is

Now we can solve the problem by applying the suvat equation:

where
is the vertical velocity when the pea hits the ceiling
is the acceleration of gravity
s = 1.90 is the distance from the ceiling
Solving for
,

Instead, the horizontal velocity remains constant during the whole motion, and it is given by

Therefore, the speed of the pea when it hits the ceiling is
