Answer:

A.) H = 58.6 m

B.) T = 6.92 s

C.) 345.12 m

D.) V = 22.13 m/s

E.) Ø = 32.1 degree

Explanation:

Given that the

initial speed U = 60.3 m/s

Angle Ø = 34.2 degree

A.) At maximum height, final velocity V is equal to zero.

Using the third equation of motion under gravity.

V^2 = U sin Ø^2 - 2gH

Substitute for U and g. Where g = 9.8 m/s^2

0 = (60.3 sin 34.2)^2 - 2 × 9.8 × H

1148.78 = 19.6 H

H = 1148.78/19.6

H = 58.6 m

B.) To Determine the total time in the air, let us use the formula

V = UsinØ - gt

At maximum height, V = 0

t = UsinØ/g

Total time T = 2t

Therefore, T = 2UsinØ/g

T = (2 × 60.3 × sin 34.2)/9.8

T = 67.79/9.8

T = 6.92 s

C.) To determine the total horizontal distance covered which is the range, we will use second equation of motion.

S = UcosØT - 1/2gt^2

Where S = range R

g = 0, since the range is not a vertical distance

T = total time

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

R = 60.3 cos 34.2 × 6.92

R = 345.12 m

D.) After 1.2 s firing,

V = UsinØ - gt

Where t = 1.2 s

Substitute into the formula

V = 60.3 × sin34.2 - 9.8 × 1.2

V = 33.89 - 11.76

V = 22.13 m/s

Therefore the speed of the projectile 1.20 s after firing is 22.13 m/s

E.) The direction will be determined by using the formula

t = VsinØ/ g

Cross multiply

VsinØ = gt

Make SinØ the subject of formula

SinØ = gt/V

SinØ = (9.8×1.2)/22.13

Sin Ø = 11.76/22.13

Sin Ø = 0.53

Ø = sin^-1( 0.53 )

Ø = 32.1 degree

An 80- quarterback jumps straight up in the air right before throwing a 0.43- football horizontally at 15 . How fast will he be

lord [1]

Answer:

the quarterback will be moving back at speed of 0.080625 m/s

the distance moved horizontally by the quarterback is 0.0241875 m or 2.41875 cm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

How fast will he be moving backward just after releasing the ball?

using conservation of momentum;

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

v₂ = m₁v₁ / m₂

where m₁ is initial mass ( 0.43 kg )

m₂ is the final mass ( 80 kg )

v₁ is the initial velocity ( 15 m/s )

v₂ is the final velocity

so we substitute

v₂ = ( 0.43 × 15 ) / 80

v₂ = 6.45 / 80

v₂ = 0.080625 m/s

Therefore, the quarterback will be moving back at speed of 0.080625 m/s

b) Suppose that the quarterback takes 0.30 to return to the ground after throwing the ball. How far d will he move horizontally, assuming his speed is constant?

we make use of the relation between time, distance and speed;

s = d/t

d = st

where s is the speed ( 0.080625 m/s )

t is time ( 0.30 s )

so we substitute

d = 0.080625 × 0.30

d = 0.0241875 m or 2.41875 cm

Therefore, the distance moved horizontally by the quarterback is 0.0241875 m or 2.41875 cm

If an oscillating mass has a frequency of 1.25 Hz, it makes 100 oscillations in

KatRina [158]

Answer:

Time, t = 80 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

The frequency of the oscillating mass, f = 1.25 Hz

Number of oscillations, n = 100

We need to find the time in which it makes 100 oscillations. We know that the frequency of an object is number of oscillations per unit time. It is given by :

$f=\dfrac{n}{t}$

$t=\dfrac{n}{f}$

$t=\dfrac{100}{1.25\ Hz}$

t = 80 seconds

So, it will make 100 oscillations in 80 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

An athlete at the gym holds a 3.0 kg steel ball in his hand. His arm is 60 cm long and has a mass of 3.8 kg, with the center of

Serggg [28]

Answer:

(a) τ = 26.58 Nm

(b) τ = 18.79 Nm

Explanation:

(a)

First we find the torque due to the ball in hand:

τ₁ = F₁d₁

where,

τ₁ = Torque due to ball in hand = ?

F₁ = Force due to ball in hand = m₁g = (3 kg)(9.8 m/s²) = 29.4 N

d₁ = perpendicular distance between ball and shoulder = 60 cm = 0.6 m

τ₁ = (29.4 N)(0.6 m)

τ₁ = 17.64 Nm

Now, we calculate the torque due to the his arm:

τ₁ = F₁d₁

where,

τ₂ = Torque due to arm = ?

F₂ = Force due to arm = m₂g = (3.8 kg)(9.8 m/s²) = 37.24 N

d₂ = perpendicular distance between center of mass and shoulder = 40% of 60 cm = (0.4)(60 cm) = 24 cm = 0.24 m

τ₂ = (37.24 N)(0.24 m)

τ₂ = 8.94 Nm

Since, both torques have same direction. Therefore, total torque will be:

τ = τ₁ + τ₂

τ = 17.64 Nm + 8.94 Nm

τ = 26.58 Nm

(b)

Now, the arm is at 45° below horizontal line.

First we find the torque due to the ball in hand:

τ₁ = F₁d₁

where,

τ₁ = Torque due to ball in hand = ?

F₁ = Force due to ball in hand = m₁g = (3 kg)(9.8 m/s²) = 29.4 N

42.42 cm = 0.4242 m

τ₁ = (29.4 N)(0.4242 m)

τ₁ = 12.47 Nm

Now, we calculate the torque due to the his arm:

τ₁ = F₁d₁

where,

τ₂ = Torque due to arm = ?

F₂ = Force due to arm = m₂g = (3.8 kg)(9.8 m/s²) = 37.24 N

d₂ = perpendicular distance between center of mass and shoulder = 40% of (60 cm)(Cos 45°) = (0.4)(42.42 cm) = 16.96 cm = 0.1696 m

τ₂ = (37.24 N)(0.1696 m)

τ₂ = 6.32 Nm

Since, both torques have same direction. Therefore, total torque will be:

τ = τ₁ + τ₂

τ = 12.47 Nm + 6.32 Nm

τ = 18.79 Nm
