Answer:
a) 1.73*10^5 J
b) 3645 N
Explanation:
106 km/h = 106 * 1000/3600 = 29.4 m/s
If KE = PE, then
mgh = 1/2mv²
gh = 1/2v²
h = v²/2g
h = 29.4² / 2 * 9.81
h = 864.36 / 19.62
h = 44.06 m
Loss of energy = mgΔh
E = 780 * 9.81 * (44.06 - 21.5)
E = 7651.8 * 22.56
E = 172624.6 J
Thus, the amount if energy lost is 1.73*10^5 J
Work done = Force * distance
Force = work done / distance
Force = 172624.6 / (21.5/sin27°)
Force = 172624.6 / 47.36
Force = 3645 N
Answer:
35 mph
Explanation:
The key of this problem lies in understanding the way that projectile motion works as we are told to neglect the height of the javelin thrower and wind resistance.
When the javelin is thown, its velocity will have two components: a x component and a y component. The only acceleration that will interact with the javelin after it was thown will be the gravety, which has a -y direction. This means that the x component of the velocity will remain constant, and only the y component will be affected, and can be described with the constant acceleration motion properties.
When an object that moves in constant acceleration motion, the time neccesary for it to desaccelerate from a velocity v to 0, will be the same to accelerate the object from 0 to v. And the distance that the object will travel in both desaceleration and acceleration will be exactly the same.
So, when the javelin its thrown, it willgo up until its velocity in the y component reaches 0. Then it will go down, and it will reach reach the ground in the same amount of time it took to go up and, therefore, with the same velocity.
Answer:
The average speed for the entire run is 12 km/h.
Explanation:
The average speed is given by the following equation:

Where:
: is the total distance
: is the total time
If during the first hour, they ran a total of 13 kilometers and then, they ran 5.0 kilometers during the next half an hour we have:


Hence, the average speed is:

Therefore, the average speed for the entire run is 12 km/h.

Answer:
Suppose two objects of different masses are moving with different velocities in the same direction on a straght-line before collision. After collision, they stick together and move with common (the same) velocity
Answer:
x₂=0.44m
Explanation:
First, we calculate the length the spring is stretch when the first block is hung from it:

Now, since the stretched spring is in equilibrium, we have that the spring restoring force must be equal to the weight of the block:

Solving for the spring constant k, we get:

Next, we use the same relationship, but for the second block, to find the value of the stretched length:

Finally, we sum this to the unstretched length to obtain the length of the spring:

In words, the length of the spring when the second block is hung from it, is 0.44m.
