For a short time the missile moves along the parabolic path y=(18−2x2) km. If motion along the ground is measured as x=(4t−3) km
muminat

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

y=(18-2x^2) km

x=(4t-3)km

Differentiate x and y w.r.t t

\frac{dx}{dt}=4

\frac{dy}{dt}=-4x\frac{dx}{dt}

\frac{dy}{dt}=-4x\times 4=-16x=-16(4t-3)

v_x=\frac{dx}{dt}=4

v_y=\frac{dy}{dt}=-16(4t-3)

Substitute t=1

v_x=4

v_y=-16(4-3)=-16

Magnitude of velocity=\mid v\mid=\sqrt{v^2_x+v^2_y}

\mid v\mid=\sqrt{4^2+(-16)^2}=16.49 m/s

Hence, the magnitude of the missile's velocity=16.49 m/s

a_x=\frac{d(\frac{dx}{dt})}{dt}=\frac{d(4)}{dt}=0

a_y=\frac{d(\frac{dy}{dt})}{dt}=\frac{d(-16(4t-3))}{dt}=-64

Substitute t=1

a_x=0,a_y=-64

\mid a\mid=\sqrt{a^2_x+a^2_y}

\mid a\mid=\sqrt{0+(-64)^2}=64m/s^2

Hence, the magnitude of acceleration when t=1 s=64m/s^2

A car is moving with a constant velocity of 25 m/s. Which of the following is true?
S_A_V [24]

b) the net force on the car is zero.

Explanation:

Let's analyze each option one by one:

a) the force from the engine is greater than all the forces of friction.  --> FALSE. In fact, the car is moving at constant velocity: this means that its acceleration is zero,

a = 0

and so Newton's second law becomes

\sum F = ma = 0

where \sum F is the net force on the car and m is its mass. This means that the net force on the car is zero: so, the force from the engine cannot be greater than all the forces of friction, otherwise the net force cannot be zero.

b) the net force on the car is zero.  --> TRUE, for what we said at point A)

c) the inertia is changing.  --> FALSE. The inertia of an object just depend on the mass and the velocity of the object: as neither the mass nor the velocity are changing in this problem, then the inertia of the car is not changing.

d) the forces of friction are proportional to the acceleration of the car.  --> FALSE. Generally, the force of friction acting on an object moving on a flat surface is

F_f = \mu mg

where \mu is the coefficient of friction, m is the mass, and g the acceleration of gravity. Therefore, the force of friction does not depend on the acceleration of the car.

e) All of the above. --> FALSE

goblinko [34]

Answer;

-Sensors

-Sensors are placed on dangerous machinery to detect motion, light, heat, pressure, or another stimulus. Their presence helps protect operators from injury while working on machines.

Explanation;

-Machinery, safety and factory floor sensors and switches help workers become more productive, efficient, and safe.

-Hazardous machines and systems are frequently equipped with safety elements (safety doors) with a locking mechanism to protect the operator. Their function is to prevent hazardous machine functions if the safety door is not closed and locked and to keep the safety door closed and locked until the risk of injury has passed.
