Dump Tower is 96 stories tall. A small, 1.2-kg object is dropped over the side of the roof of the tower and accelerates toward t

he ground. The mass of the planet housing Dump Tower is 2.7 times the mass of Ganymede and the radius of the body is 1.7 times the radius of Makemake. You will track the object for its entire fall. Each story of this tower is 3.05 meters tall.
How many seconds will it take the object to reach the ground and what will be its impact speed with the ground?

The ball will not drop until your submit your answers.

Answer:

The time taken by the object to reach the ground, t = 25.04 / √gₓ

The final velocity of the object, v = 23.39 √gₓ

Explanation:

Given data,

The height of the Dump Tower, h = 96 x 3.05

= 292.8 m

The mass of the planet housing Dump Tower, M = 2.7 mₓ

The radius of the planet housing Dump Tower, R = 1.7 rₐ

The acceleration due to the gravity of the planet is,

g = GM/R²

= 2.7 Gmₓ / (1.7 rₐ)²

= 0.934 Gmₓ/rₐ²

g = 0.934 gₓ

Using the II equations of motion,

S = ut + ½ gt²

= 0 + ½ (0.934 gₓ) t²

t = √(2S/ 0.934 gₓ)

= √(2 x 292.8/ 0.934 gₓ)

t = 25.04 / √gₓ

Hence, the time taken by the object to reach the ground, t = 25.04 / √gₓ

Using the I equations of motion

v = u + gt

= 0 + 0.934 gₓ (25.04 / √gₓ)

v = 23.39 √gₓ

Hence, the final velocity of the object, v = 23.39 √gₓ

When a 25-kg crate is pushed across a frictionless horizontal floor with a force of 200 N, directed 20 below the horizontal, th

Fofino [41]

Answer:

Option E is correct 310N

Explanation:

Given that the force used to push the crate is F = 200N

The force directed 20° below the horizontal

Mass of crate is m = 25kg

Weight of the crate can be determine using

W = mg

g is gravitational constant =9.8m/s²

W = 25×9.8

W = 245 N

Using newton second law along the vertical axis since we want to find the normal force

ΣFy = m•ay

ay = 0, since the body is not moving in the vertical or y direction

N—W—F•Sin20 = 0

N = W+F•Sin20

N = 245+ 200Sin20

N = 245 + 68.4

N = 313.4 N

The normal force is approximately 310 N to the nearest ten

The horizontal force is m*v²/Lh, where m is the total mass. The vertical force is the total weight (233 + 840)N.

<span>Fx = [(233 + 840)/g]*v²/7.5 </span>

<span>v = 32.3*2*π*7.5/60 m/s = 25.37 m/s </span>

<span>The horizontal component of force from the cables is Th + Ti*sin40º and the vertical component of force from the cable is Ta*cos40º </span>

<span>Thh horizontal and vertical forces must balance each other. First the vertical components: </span>

Returning once again to our table top example of a horizontal mass on a low-friction surface with m = 0.254 kg and k = 10.0 N/m

Julli [10]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 0.254 kg

Spring constant [tex[\omega_{0}= 10.0\ N/m[/tex]

Force = 0.5 N

y = 0.628

We need to calculate the A and d

Using formula of A and d

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{F_{0}}{m}}{\sqrt{(\omega_{0}^2-\omega^{2})^2+y^2\omega^2}}$ .....(I)

$tan d=\dfrac{y\omega}{(\omega^2-\omega^2)}$ ....(II)

Put the value of $\omega=0.628\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-0.628)^2+0.628^2\times0.628^2}}$

$A=0.0198$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times0.628}{((10.0^2-0.628)^2)}$

$d=0.0023$

Put the value of $\omega=3.14\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-3.14)^2+0.628^2\times3.14^2}}$

$A=0.0203$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times3.14}{((10.0^2-3.14)^2)}$

$d=0.0120$

Put the value of $\omega=6.28\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-6.28)^2+0.628^2\times6.28^2}}$

$A=0.0209$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times6.28}{((10.0^2-6.28)^2)}$

$d=0.0257$

Put the value of $\omega=9.42\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-9.42)^2+0.628^2\times9.42^2}}$

$A=0.0217$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times9.42}{((10.0^2-9.42)^2)}$

$d=0.0413$

Hence, This is the required solution.
