Many cultures around the world still use a simple weapon called a blowgun, a tube with a dart that fits tightly inside. A sharp

breath into the end of the tube launches the dart. When exhaling forcefully, a healthy person can supply air at a gauge pressure of 6.0 kPa.
Required:
What force does this pressure exert on a dart in a 1.5-cm-diameter tube?

Answer:

F = 1.06N

Explanation:

In order to calculate the force that produces the given pressure you take into account the following formula:

$P=\frac{F}{A}$ (1)

P: pressure = 6.0kPa = 6.0*10³ Pa

F: force = ?

A: cross-sectional area of the tube = π r^2

r: radius of the tube = 1.5cm/2 = 0.75cm = 0.75*10^-2 m

You solve the equation (1) for F, and replace the values for the area A and the pressure P:

$F=PA=(6.0*10^{3}Pa)(\pi(0.75*10^{-2}m)^2)\\\\F=1.06N$

The force tha produces a pressure of 6.0kPa in a tube with a diameters of 1.5cm is 1.06N

Answer:

The ball impact velocity i.e(velocity right before landing) is 6.359 m/s

Explanation:

This problem is related to parabolic motion and can be solved by the following equations:

$x=V_{o}cos \theta t$ ----------------------(1)

$y=y_{o}+V_{o} sin \theta t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ ---------(2)

$V=V_{o}-gt$ ----------------------- (3)

Where:

x = m is the horizontal distance travelled by the golf ball

$V_{o}$ is the golf ball's initial velocity

$\theta=0\°$ is the angle (it was a horizontal shot)

t is the time

y is the final height of the ball

$y_{o}$ is the initial height of the ball

g is the acceleration due gravity

V is the final velocity of the ball

Step 1: finding t

Let use the equation(2)

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2 y_{o}}{g}}$

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2 (12.5 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}}$

$t=1.597$ s

Substituting (6) in (1):

$67.1 =V_{o} cos(0\°) 1.597$ -------------------(4)

Step 2: Finding $V_{o}$ :

From equation(4)

$67.1 =V_{o}(1) 1.597$

$V_0 = \frac{6.71}{1.597}$

$V_{o}=42.01$ m/s (8)

Substituting $V_{o}$ in (3):

$V=42.01 -(9.8)(1.597)$

v =42 .01 - 15.3566

V=26.359 m/s

Answer:

The current flows through the rod is 14.9 A.

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnetic field = 0.045 T

Mass of aluminum rod = 0.19 kg

Length = 1.6 m

Angle = 30.0°

We need to calculate the force

Using resolving force

$F\cos\theta=mg\sin\theta$

$F=mg\tan\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$F=0.19\times9.8\times\tan30$

$F=1.075\ N$

We need to calculate the current flows through the rod

Using formula of magnetic force

$F=iLB$

$i=\dfrac{F}{LB}$

Put the value into the formula

$i=\dfrac{1.075}{1.6\times0.045}$

$i=14.9\ A$

Hence, The current flows through the rod is 14.9 A.

Describe what happens to the moving boat when the oars are out of the water and the forward thrust is zero

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The boat won't be able to move if the oars were out and there was no thruster. If there was a flow of the water then yes there would be a moving boat.
