A Plane crashes into the side of a mountain. If the crash took place over 9

Physics

Julli [10]3 years ago
6 0

Given parameters:

Duration of crash = 9min

Velocity before crash = 2000 yards per second

Unknown:

Acceleration of the plane = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the change of velocity with time.

  Acceleration  = \frac{V - U}{t}

where v is the final velocity

          u is the initial velocity

          t is the time taken

We need to convert the time into seconds from min;

                      60s  = 1 min

                                So, 9min = 60 x 9 = 540s

So input the parameters and solve;

                  Acceleration = \frac{2000 - 0 }{540}  = 3.7yards/s²

The acceleration of the plane is 3.7yards/s²

A stone is dropped into a river from a bridge 41.7 m above the water. Another stone is thrown vertically down 1.80 s after the f
hram777 [196]

Answer:

31.75 m/s

Explanation:

h = 41.7 m

Let the initial velocity of the second stone is u

Let the time taken to reach to the bottom by the first stone is t then the time taken by the second stone to reach the ground is t - 1.8.

For first stone:

Use second equation of motion

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Here, u = 0, g = 9.8 m/s^2 and t be the time and h = 41.7

So, 41.7= 0 + 0.5 x 9.8 x t^2

41.7 = 4.9 t^2

t = 2.92 s ..... (1)

For second stone:

Use second equation of motion

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Here, g = 9.8 m/s^2 and time taken is t - 1.8 = 2.92 - 1.8 = 1.12 s, h = 41.7 m and u be the initial velocity

h=u\left ( t-1.8 \right )+4.9\left ( t-1.8 \right )^2    .... (2)

By equation the equation (1) and (2), we get

41.7=1.12 u +4.9 \times 1.12^{2}

u = 31.75 m/s

A point charge (–5.0 µC) is placed on the x axis at x = 4.0 cm, and a second charge (+5.0 µC) is placed on the x axis at x = –4.
AveGali [126]

Answer:

The magnitude of electric force is  7.2\times10^{-3} N

Explanation:

Coulomb's Law:

The force of attraction or repletion is

  • directly proportional to the products of charges i.e F\propto q_1q_2
  • inversely proportional to the square of distance i.e F\propto \frac{1}{r^2}

\therefore F\propto \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

\Rightarrow F=k \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}    [ k is proportional constant=9×10⁹N m²/C²]

There are two types of force applied on Q=+2.5 μC=2.5×10⁻⁶ C

Let F₁ force be applied on Q =+2.5 μC by q₁= -5.0 μC = - 5.0×10⁻⁶ C

and F₂ force  be applied on Q=+2.5 μC by q₂= 5.0 μC= 5.0×10⁻⁶ C

Since the magnitude of F₁ and F₂ are same. Therefore their y component cancel.

If we draw a line from q₁ to Q .

The it forms a triangle whose base = 4.0 cm and altitude =3.0 cm.

Let hypotenuse = r

Therefore, r=\sqrt{altitude^2+base^2} =\sqrt{3^2+4^2} =5

we know,

cos \theta = \frac{base }{hypotenuse}

\Rightarrow cos \theta = \frac{4 }{r}

Total force F_Q = 2.F_1 cos\theta \hat{i}

                         =2k\frac{Qq_1}{r^2} cos\theta \hat i

                         =2\ \frac{9\times1 0^9\times2.5 \times 5\times 10^{-12}}{r^2} \frac{4}{r} \hat i

                         =8\ \frac{9\times10^9\times2.5 \times 5\times 10^{-12}}{5^3} \hat i     [ r=5]

                         =7.2\times10^{-3}\hat i   N

The magnitude of electric force is  7.2\times10^{-3} N
