Answer:

Part a)

$v_f = v_x = 32.77 m/s$

Part b)

T = 4.68 s

Explanation:

Part a)

Shell is fired at speed of 40 m/s at angle of 35 degree

so here we have

$v_x = 40 cos35 = 32.77 m/s$

$v_y = 40 sin35 = 22.94 m/s$

since gravity act opposite to vertical speed of the shell so at the highest point of its trajectory the vertical component of the speed will become zero

so at the highest point the speed is given

$v_f = 32.77 m/s$

Part b)

After completing the motion we know that the displacement of the object will be zero in Y direction

so we have

$\Delta y = 0$

$0 = v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$T = \frac{2v_y}{g}$

$T = \frac{2(22.94)}{9.81} = 4.68 s$

The Gibson family have bought tickets to the Christmas Market. There are 4 mothers, 2 grand-mothers and 4 daughters. What is the

koban [17]

The minimum number of tickets that could admit all of them is six (6).

This thing is impossible to explain in words, so I shall attempt it with a diagram:

Here are the six ladies:

   ( A ) ( B )
      |    |
      |    |
   ( C ) ( D )
      |       |
    |       |
   ( E ) ( F )

-- 'E' and 'F' are the daughters of 'C' and 'D' .

-- 'C' and 'D' are the daughters of 'A' and 'B' .

So look what we have now:

-- 'A' and 'B' are the mothers of 'C' and 'D' .
   There's 2 of the mothers.

-- 'C' and 'D' are the mothers of 'E' and 'F' .
   There's the OTHER 2 mothers.

-- 'A' and 'B' are the grandmothers of 'E' and 'F' .
    There's the 2 grandmothers.

-- 'E' and 'F' are the daughters of 'C' and 'D' .
   There's 2 of the daughters.

-- 'C' and 'D' are the daughters of 'A' and 'B' .
   There's the OTHER 2 daughters.

You want to know what ? !
The group is even bigger than THAT.
There are also 2 GRAND-daughters in the family ... 'E' and 'F' .

So now you have a list of 12 people ! ... 4 mothers, 2 grandmothers,
4 daughters, and 2 grand-daughters ... and they all get in to the
Christmas Market with only six tickets. Legally !

Such a deal !

Don't forget : Christmas this year is also the first day of Chanukah !
   All for the same price !

Ronch [10]

Complete Question

A gas gun uses high pressure gas tp accelerate projectile through the gun barrel.

If the acceleration of the projective is : a = c/s m/s2

Where c is a constant that depends on the initial gas pressure behind the projectile. The initial position of the projectile is s= 1.5m and the projectile is initially at rest. The projectile accelerates until it reaches the end of the barrel at s=3m. What is the value of the constant c such that the projectile leaves the barrel with velocity of 200m/s?

Answer:

The value of the constant is $c = 28853.78 \ m^2 /s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The acceleration is $a = \frac{c}{s}\ m/s^2$

The initial position of the projectile is s= 1.5m

The final position of the projectile is $s_f = 3 \ m$

The velocity is $v = 200 \ m/s$

Generally $time = \frac{ds}{dv}$

and acceleration is $a = \frac{v}{time }$

so

$a = v \frac{dv}{ds}$

=> $vdv = a ds$

$vdv = \frac{c}{s} ds$

integrating both sides

$\int\limits^a_b vdv = \int\limits^c_d \frac{c}{s} ds$

Now for the limit

a = 200 m/s

b = 0 m/s

c = s= 3 m

d = $s_f$ = 1.5 m

So we have

$\int\limits^{200}_{0} vdv = \int\limits^{3}_{1.5} \frac{c}{s} ds$

$[\frac{v^2}{2} ] \left | 200} \atop {0}} \right. = c [ln s]\left | 3} \atop {1.5}} \right.$

$\frac{200^2}{2} = c ln[\frac{3}{1.5} ]$

=> $c = \frac{20000}{0.69315}$

$c = 28853.78 \ m^2 /s^2$
