The gun, mount, and train car of a railway had a total mass of 1.22 x 10^6 kg. The gun fired a projectile that was 80 cm in diam

eter and weighed 7502 kg. In the firing, the gun has been elevated 20 degrees above the horizontal. If the railway gun at rest before firing and moved to the right at a speed of 4.68 m/s immediately after firing, what was the speed of the projectile as it left the barrel (muzzle velocity)? How far will the projectile travel if air resistance is neglected? Assume that the wheel axles are frictionless.

1) According to the law of conservation of momentum .. 
<span>Horiz recoil mom of gun (M x v) = horiz. mon acquired by shell (m x Vh) </span>

<span>1.22^6kg x 5.0 m/s = 7502kg x Vh </span>
<span>Vh = 1.22^6 x 5 / 7502 .. .. Vh = 813 m/s </span>

<span>Barrel velocity V .. .. cos20 = Vh / V .. ..V = 813 /cos20 .. .. ►V = 865 m/s </span>

<span>2) Using the standard range equation .. R = u² sin2θ /g </span>

<span>R = 865² x sin40 / 9.80 .. .. ►R = 49077 m .. (49 km)</span>

How can inclined planes change the amount of force to move an object? A. Increase height of the inclined plane B. Increase dista
mash [69]

Answer:

Option ( B ) is correct .

Explanation:

To lift a heavy weight , inclined plane is used . Use of inclined plane , makes the task easier because instead of force mg , force mg sinθ is to be used which is less than mg . Here θ is inclination of inclined plane.

If h be the height by which weight is to be lifted

potential energy acquired by weight = mgh

work done by force mg sinθ = mgsinθ x d where d is displacement required .

mg sinθ x d = mgh  ( work done by force = potential energy stored in luggage )

d = h / sinθ

d will be more than h

Hence inclined plane increases the distance to be covered by force applied though it decreases the force itself.

Hence option ( B ) is correct .

A small 0.13 kg metal ball is tied to a very light (essentially massless) string that is 0.70 m long. The string is attached to
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let l be th length of pendulum

loss of height

= mg ( l - l cos50)

= mg l ( 1-cos50)

1/2 mv² = mgl ( 1-cos50)

v = √[2gl( 1- cos50)]

= √( 2 x 9.8 x .7 x ( 1-cos50)

= 2.2 m / s

speed at the bottom = 2.2 m /s

b )

centripetal acceleration

= v² / r

= 2.2 x 2.2 / .7

= 6.9 m /s²

C )

If T be the tension

T - mg = mv² / r

T = mg + mv² / r

= .13 X 9.8 + .13 X 6.9

= 2.17 N
