s and at point B is 5.8 m/s . Use the impulse-momentum theorem to find how long the sled takes to travel from A to B.

Answer:

1.06 secs

Explanation:

Initial speed of sled, u = 8.4 m/s

Final speed of sled, v = 5.8 m/s

Coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.25

Using the impulse momentum theory, we know that the impulse applied to the sled is equal to change in momentum of the sled:

FΔt = mv - mu

where m = mass of the object

Δt = time interval

F = force applied

The force applied on the sled is the frictional force, which is given as:

F = -μmg

where g = acceleration due to gravity

Therefore:

-μmgΔt =  mv - mu

-μmgΔt = m(v - u)

-μgΔt = v - u

Making Δt subject of formula:

Δt = (v - u) / -μg

Δt = (5.8 - 8.4) / (-0.25 * 9.8)

Δt = -2.6/ -2.45

Δt = 1.06 secs

It took the sled 1.06 secs to travel from A to B.

The velocity profile in fully developed laminar flow in a circular pipe of inner radius R 5 2 cm, in m/s, is given by u(r) 5 4(1
xxMikexx [17]

The question is not clear and the complete clear question is;

The velocity profile in fully developed laminar flow In a circular pipe of inner radius R = 2 cm, in m/s, is given By u(r) = 4(1 - r²/R²). Determine the average and maximum Velocities in the pipe and the volume flow rate.

Answer:

A) V_max = 4 m/s

B) V_avg = 2 m/s

C) Flow rate = 0.00251 m³/s

Explanation:

A) We are given that;

u(r) = 4(1 - (r²/R²))

To obtain the maximum velocity, let's apply the maximum condition for a single-variable continual real valued problem to obtain;

(d/dr)(u(r)) = 0

Thus,

(d/dr)•4(1 - (r²/R²)) = 0

4(d/dr)(1 - (r²/R²)) = 0

If we differentiate, we have;

4(0 - (2r/R²)) = 0

-8r/R² = 0

Thus, r = 0 and with that, the maximum velocity is at the centre of the pipe.

Thus, for maximum velocity, let's put 0 for r in the U(r) function.

Thus,

V_max = 4(1 - 0²/R²) = 4 - 0 = 4 m/s

B) Average velocity is given by;

V_avg = V_max/2

V_avg = 4/2 = 2 m/s

C) the flow can be calculated from;

Flow rate ΔV = A•V_avg

A is area = πr²

From question, r = 2cm = 0.02m

A = π x 0.02²

Hence,

ΔV = π x 0.02² x 2 = 0.00251 m³/s

a ballistic pendulum is used to measure the speed of high-speed projectiles. A 6 g bullet A is fired into a 1 kg wood block B su
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

(a) v-bullet = 399.04 m/s

(b) I = 2.38 kg m/s

(c) T = 2.59 N

Explanation:

(a) To calculate the initial speed of the bullet, you first take into account that the kinetic energy of both wood block and bullet, just after the bullet impacts the block, is equal to the potential gravitational energy of block and bullet when the cord is at 60° respect to the vertical.

The potential energy is given by:

U=(M+m)gh       (1)

U: potential energy

M: mass of the wood block = 1 kg

m: mass of the bullet = 6g = 6.0*10^-3 kg

g: gravitational constant = 9.8m/s^2

h: distance to the ground

The distance to the ground is calculate d by using the information about the length of the cord and the degrees of the cord respect to the vertical:

h=l-lsin\theta\\\\h=2.2m-2,2m\ sin60\°=0.29m

The potential energy is:

U=(1kg+6*10^{-3}kg)(9.8m/s^2)(0.29m)=2.85J

Next, the potential energy is equal to kinetic energy of the block and the bullet at the beginning of its motion:

U=\frac{1}{2}(M+m)v^2\\\\v=\sqrt{2\frac{U}{M+m}}=\sqrt{2\frac{2.85J}{1kg+6*10^{-3}kg}}=2.38\frac{m}{s}

Next, you use the momentum conservation law, in order to calculate the speed of the bullet before the impact:

Mv_1+mv_2=(M+m)v    (2)

v1: initial velocity of the wood block = 0m/s

v2: initial speed of the bullet

v: speed of bullet and block = 2.38m/s

You solve the equation (2) for v2:

M(0)+mv_2=(M+m)v    

v_2=\frac{M+m}{m}v=\frac{1kg+6*10^{-3}kg}{6*10^{-3}kg}(2.38m/s)\\\\v_2=399.04\frac{m}{s}

The speed of the bullet before the impact with the wood block is 399.04 m/s

(b) The impulse is gibe by the change in the velocity of the block, multiplied by the mass of the block:

I=M\Delta v=M(v-v_1)=(1kg)(2.38m/s-0m/s)=2.38kg\frac{m}{s}

The impulse is 2.38 kgm/s

(c) The force on the cord after the impact is equal to the centripetal force over the block and bullet. That is:

T=F_c=(M+m)\frac{v^2}{l}=(1.006kg)\frac{(2.38m/s)^2}{2.2m}=2.59N    

The force on the cord after the impact is 2.59N

The drawing shows two situations in which charges are placed on the x and y axes. They are all located at the same distance of 5
ra1l [238]

Answer:

For situation (a)

net charge E = E₊₂ + E₋₅ + E₋₃

E =  K(q/d²)

where K = 8.99e9

d = 5.7cm = 5.7e-2m

Therefore,

E₊₂(x) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((2.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 3.15e5(+x)

E₋₅(y) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((5.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) =  7.88e5(+y)

E₋₃(x) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((3.0e6)÷(5.7e-2)) =  4.73e5(+x)

thus

E = E₊₂ + E₋₅ + E₋₃

= 3.15e5(x) + 7.88e5(y) + 4.73e6(x)

= 7.88e6(x) + 7.88e6(y)

use Pythagorean theorem

I <em>E </em>I  = \sqrt{(7.89e5)^{2}  + (7.89e5)^{2}} =  1.242e6\frac{N}{C}

∅ = tan^{-1}(\frac{7.88e5}{7.88e5} ) = tan^{-1}(1) = 45°

Thus for (a) net magnitude =  1.115e6\frac{N}{C} @ 45° above +x axis

for situation (b)

net charge E = E₊₄ + E₊₁ + E₋₁ + E₊₆

E₊₄(x) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((4.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 6.30e5(+x)

 E₊₁(y) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((1.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 1.58e5(-y)

E₋₁(x) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((1.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 1.58e5(+x)

E₊₆(y) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((6.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 9.46e5(+y)

thus,

E = E₊₄ + E₊₁ + E₋₁ + E₊₆

= 6.30e5(x) - 1.58e5(y) + 1.58e5(x) + 9.46e5(y)

= 7.88e5(x) + 7.88e5(y)

use Pythagorean theorem

I <em>E </em>I  = \sqrt{(7.88e5)^{2}  + (7.88e5)^{2}} =  1.242e6\frac{N}{C}

∅ = tan^{-1}(\frac{7.88e5}{7.88e5} ) = tan^{-1}(1) = 45°

Thus for (a) and (b) the net magnitude =  1.242e6\frac{N}{C} @ 45° above +x axis
