The Great Sandini is a 60 kg circus performer who is shotfrom a cannon (actually a spring gun). You don't find many men ofhis ca

liber, so you help him design a new gun. This new gun has avery large spring with a very small mass and a force constant of1100 N/m that he will compress with a force of4400 N. The inside of the gun barrel is coated with Teflon, sothe average friction force will be only 40 N during the 4.0 m he moves in the barrel.
At what speed will he emerge from the end of the barrel, 2.5 mabove his initial rest position?

Answer:

V=15.3 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we have to use the energy conservation theorem:

U_e+K_i+U_{gi}+W_{friction}=K_f+U_{gf}

the elastic potencial energy is given by:

U_e=\frac{1}{2}*k*x^2\\U_e=\frac{1}{2}*1100N/m*(4m)^2\\U_e=8800J

The work is defined as:

W_{friction}=F_f*d*cos(\theta)\\W_{friction}=40N*2.5m*cos(180)\\W_{friction}=-100J

this work is negative because is opposite to the movement.

The gravitational potencial energy at 2.5 m aboves is given by:

U_{gf}=m*g*h\\U_{gf}=60kg*9.8*2.5\\U_{gf}=1470J

the gravitational potential energy at the ground and the kinetic energy at the begining are 0.

8800J+0+0+-100J=\frac{1}{2}*62kg*v^2+1470J\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2(8800J-100J-1470J)}{62kg}}\\v=15.3m/s

A horizontal rectangular surface has dimensions 2.80 cm by 3.20 cm and is in a uniform magnetic field that is directed at an ang
koban [17]

Answer:

magnitude of the magnetic field 0.692 T

Explanation:

given data

rectangular dimensions = 2.80 cm by 3.20 cm

angle of 30.0°

produce a flux Ф = 3.10 × 10^{-4}  Wb

solution

we take here rectangular side a and b as a = 2.80 cm and b = 3.20 cm

and here angle between magnitude field and area will be ∅ = 90 - 30

∅ = 60°

and flux  is express as

flux Ф = \int \vec{B}.d\vec{A}   .................1

and Ф = BA cos∅    ............2

so B = \frac{\phi }{Acos\theta }    

and we know

A = ab

so

B = \frac{\phi }{abcos\theta }    ..............3

put here value

B =  \frac{3.10\times 10^{-4} }{2.80 \times 10^{-2}\times 3.20 \times 10^{-2}\times cos60}  

solve we get

B = 0.692 T

A firecracker in a coconut blows the coconut into three pieces. two pieces of equal mass fly off south and west, perpendicular t
netineya [11]
Here we have mass that moves at ceratin speed. This means that we have momentum. The law that must be observed is law of conservation of momentum. It states that momentum before certain event is equal to a momentum after that event. Here we have three masses so we can write this as:
m_{1}  v_{1i} + m_{2}  v_{2i} + m_{3}  v_{3i} = m_{1}  v_{1f} + m_{2}  v_{2f} + m_{3}  v_{3f}
Before the firecracker blows a coconut does not move, so left side is equal to 0:
0 = m_{1} v_{1f} + m_{2} v_{2f} + m_{3} v_{3f}

We know that m1=m2=m and m3=2m. Also we are asked to find v3f so we can rewrite formula:
v_{3f} = -  \frac{m_{1}  v_{1f}  + m_{2} v_{2f} }{ m_{3} }

We must take in consideration that two parts with same mass do not move in same direction. The center of mass of these two parts moves between them at angle of 45° with respect to both south and west. The speed of a center of mass is:
v_{f} = \sqrt{ v_{1f}^{2}+ v_{2f}^{2} } \\ \\ v_{f} = 33.9m/s
This speed we can insert into formula for v3f:
v_{3f} = - \frac{m*33.9+m*33.9 }{ 2m } \\  \\ v_{3f} = - \frac{2m*33.9 }{ 2m }  \\  \\ v_{3f} = - 33.9m/s

We can see that part of a coconut with biggest mass has same speed as center of mass of two other parts. Negative sign shows that direction is opposite to direction of two pats. Biggest part moves towards north-east.

If a train travels 80 miles north, 60 miles east, what’s the magnitude of its total displacement? Find the solution by drawing a
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

100 miles North East.

Explanation:

Please see attached photo for diagram.

In the attached photo, X represents the magnitude of the total displacement of the train.

Thus, we can obtain the value of X by using the pythagoras theory as illustrated below:

X² = 80² + 60²

X² = 6400 + 3600

X² = 10000

Take the square root of both side

X = √10000

X = 100 miles.

Therefore, the magnitude of the total displacement of the train is 100 miles North East.

A 90 kg astronaut Travis is stranded in space at a point 12 m from his spaceship. In order to get back to his ship, Travis throw
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a recoil problem, which is just another application of the Law of Momentum Conservation. The equation for us is:

[m_av_a+m_ev_e]_b=[m_av_a+m_ev_e]_a which, in words, is

The momentum of the astronaut plus the momentum of the piece of equipment before the equipment is thrown has to be equal to the momentum of all that same stuff after the equipment is thrown. Filling in:

[(90.0)(0)+(.50)(0)]_b=[(90.0)(v)+(.50)(-4.0)]_a

Obviously, on the left side of the equation, nothing is moving so the whole left side equals 0. Doing the math on the right and paying specific attention to the sig fig's here (notice, I added a 0 after the 4 in the velocity value so our sig fig's are 2 instead of just 1. 1 is useless in most applications).

0 = 90.0v - 2.0 and

2.0 = 90.0v so

v = .022 m/s This is the rate at which he is moving TOWARDS the ship (negative was moving away from the ship, as indicated by the - in the problem). Now we can use the d = rt equation to find out how long this process will take him if he wants to reach his ship before he dies.

12 = .022t and

t = 550 seconds, which is the same thing as 9.2 minutes
