You find yourself in the middle of a frozen lake with a surface so slippery (ms = mk = 0) you cannot walk. However, you happen t

o have several rocks in your pocket. The ice is extremely hard. It cannot be chipped, and the rocks slip on it just as much as your feet do. Can you think of a way to get to shore? Use pictures, forces, and Newton’s laws to explain your reasoning.

A projectile is launched straight up from a height of 960 feet with an initial velocity of 64 ft/sec. Its height at time t is h(
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

a) t=2s

b) h_{max}=1024ft

c) v_{y}=-256ft/s

Explanation:

From the exercise we know the initial velocity of the projectile and its initial height

v_{y}=64ft/s\\h_{o}=960ft\\g=-32ft/s^2

To find what time does it take to reach maximum height we need to find how high will it go

b) We can calculate its initial height using the following formula

Knowing that its velocity is zero at its maximum height

v_{y}^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2g(y-y_{o})

0=(64ft/s)^2-2(32ft/s^2)(y-960ft)

y=\frac{-(64ft/s)^2-2(32ft/s^2)(960ft)}{-2(32ft/s^2)}=1024ft

So, the projectile goes 1024 ft high

a) From the equation of height we calculate how long does it take to reach maximum point

h=-16t^2+64t+960

1024=-16t^2+64t+960

0=-16t^2+64t-64

Solving the quadratic equation

t=\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

a=-16\\b=64\\c=-64

t=2s

So, the projectile reach maximum point at t=2s

c) We can calculate the final velocity by using the following formula:

v_{y}^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2g(y-y_{o})

v_{y}=±\sqrt{(64ft/s)^{2}-2(32ft/s^2)(-960ft)}=±256ft/s

Since the projectile is going down the velocity at the instant it reaches the ground is:

v=-256ft/s

At the equator, the radius of the Earth is approximately 6370 km. A plane flies at a very low altitude at a constant speed of v
Cerrena [4.2K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of linear motion. From there we will define the distance as the circumference of the earth (approximate as a sphere). With the speed given in the statement we will simply clear the equations below and find the time.

R= 6370*10^3 m

v = 239m/s

a = 16.5m/s^2

The circumference of the earth would be

\phi = 2\pi R

Velocity is defined as,

v = \frac{x}{t}

t = \frac{x}{v}

Here x = \phi, then

t = \frac{\phi}{v} = \frac{2\pi (6370*10^3)}{239}

t = 167463.97s

Therefore will take 167463.97 s or 1 day 22 hours 31 minutes and 3.97seconds

Welcome to this IE. You may navigate to any page you've seen already using the IE Outline tab on the right. A particle beam is m
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

the magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m is 10143.57 V/m or 1.01 × 10⁴ V/m

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Kinetic energy of each proton that makes up the beam = 3.25 × 10⁻¹⁵ J

Mass of proton = 1.673 × 10⁻²⁷ kg

Charge of proton = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

distance d = 2 m

we know that

Kinetic Energy = Charge of proton × Potential difference ΔV

so

Potential difference ΔV = Kinetic Energy / Charge of proton

we substitute

Potential difference ΔV = ( 3.25 × 10⁻¹⁵ ) / ( 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ )

Potential difference ΔV = 20287.14 V

Now, the magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m will be;

E = Potential difference ΔV / distance d

we substitute

E = 20287.14 V / 2 m

E = 10143.57 V/m or 1.01 × 10⁴ V/m

Therefore, the magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m is 10143.57 V/m or 1.01 × 10⁴ V/m

When operated on a household 110.0 V line, typical hair dryers draw about 1450 W of power. The current can be modeled as a long,
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

0.075A

Explanation:

We can consider this system as a circuit, hence we can take the current from the formula for the electric power as follow

P=IV\\I=\frac{P}{V}=\frac{110V}{1450W}=0.075A

I hope this is useful for you
