A block of wood is floating in water; it is depressed slightly and then released to oscillate up and down. Assume that the top a

nd bottom of the block are parallel planes which remain horizontal during the oscillations and that the sides of the block are vertical. Show that the period of the motion (neglecting friction) is 2π ph/g, where h is the vertical height of the part of the block under water when it is floating at rest. Hint: Recall that the buoyant force is equal to the weight of displaced water.

Explanation:

Equilibrium position in y direction:

W = Fb (Weight of the block is equal to buoyant force)

m*g = V*p*g

V under water = A*h

hence,

m = A*h*p

Using Newton 2nd Law

-m*\frac{d^2y}{dt^2} = Fb - W\\\\-m*\frac{d^2y}{dt^2} = p*g*(h+y)*A - A*h*p*g\\\\-A*h*p*\frac{d^2y}{dt^2} = y *p*A*g\\\\\frac{d^2y}{dt^2} + \frac{g}{h} * y =0

Hence, T time period

T = 2*pi*sqrt ( h / g )

Sarah's mother gets a flat tire on her car while driving Sarah to school. They use a jack to change the tire. It exerts a force
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1250 J

Explanation:

Work is said to be done when a force causes an object to move over a distance. The amount of work done (W) is calculated by multiplying the force by the distance traveled.

That is;

W = F × d

Where;

W = work done (J or N/m)

F = force (N)

d = distance (m)

Based on the information provided in this question, F = 5000N, d = 0.25m

Hence;

W = F × d

W = 5000 × 0.25

W = 1250J

Therefore, 1250Joules of work is done by the jack.

A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 2.0 m/s2 toward the north. A second car starts from rest 4.0 s later at the
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

the correct solution is 13 s

Explanation:

This is a kinematic problem, let's use accelerated rectilinear motion relationships.

For the first car it has an accelerometer of 2.0 m/s²

       x = v₀₁ t + ½ a₁ t²

The second car leaves the same point, but 4.0 seconds later

       x = v₀₂ (t-4) + ½ a₂ (t-4)²

With this form we use the same time for both cars.

The initial speeds are zero for both vehicles leave the rest, at the point where they are located has the same position

        x = ½ a₁ t²

        x = ½ a₂ (t-4)²

Let's solve

       a₁  t² = a₂ (t-4)²

      a₁/a₂ t² = t² -2 4 t + 16

      t² (1- 2.0 / 4.0) - 8 t +16

      t² 0.5 - 8 t +16 = 0

      t² -16 t + 32 = 0

Let's solve the second degree equation

     t = [16 ±√( 16² - 4 32)] / 2  

     t = ½ (16 ± 11,3)

Solutions

     t1 = 13.66 s

     t2 = 2.34 s

These are the mathematical solutions for the meeting point, but car 2 leaves after 4 seconds, so the only solution is 13.66 s

the correct solution is 13 s, if you have to select one the nearest 12s

A mortar is like a small cannon that launches shells at steep angles. A mortar crew is positioned near the top of a steep hill.
Elena-2011 [213]

1) Distance down the hill: 1752 ft (534 m)

2) Time of flight of the shell: 12.9 s

3) Final speed: 326.8 ft/s (99.6 m/s)

Explanation:

1)

The motion of the shell is a projectile motion, so we  can analyze separately its vertical motion and its horizontal motion.

The vertical motion of the shell is a uniformly accelerated motion, so the vertical position is given by the following equation:

y=(u sin \theta)t-\frac{1}{2}gt^2 (1)

where:

u sin \theta is the initial vertical velocity of the shell, with u=156 ft/s and \theta=49.0^{\circ}

g=32 ft/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

At the same time, the horizontal motion of the shell is a uniform motion, so the horizontal position of the shell at time t is given by the equation

x=(ucos \theta)t

where u cos \theta is the initial horizontal velocity of the shell.

We can re-write this last equation as

t=\frac{x}{u cos \theta} (1b)

And substituting into (1),

y=xtan\theta -\frac{1}{2}gt^2 (2)

where we have choosen the top of the hill (starting position of the shell) as origin (0,0).

We also know that the hill goes down with a slope of \alpha=-41.0^{\circ} from the horizontal, so we can write the position (x,y) of the hill as

y=x tan \alpha (3)

Therefore, the shell hits the slope of the hill when they have same x and y coordinates, so when (2)=(3):

xtan\alpha = xtan \theta - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

Substituting (1b) into this equation,

xtan \alpha = x tan \theta - \frac{1}{2}g(\frac{x}{ucos \theta})^2\\x (tan \theta - tan \alpha)-\frac{g}{2u^2 cos^2 \theta} x^2=0\\x(tan \theta - tan \alpha-\frac{gx}{2u^2 cos^2 \theta})=0

Which has 2 solutions:

x = 0 (origin)

and

tan \theta - tan \alpha=\frac{gx}{2u^2 cos^2 \theta}=0\\x=(tan \theta - tan \alpha) \frac{2u^2 cos^2\theta}{g}=1322 ft

So, the distance d down the hill at which the shell strikes the hill is

d=\frac{x}{cos \alpha}=\frac{1322}{cos(-41.0^{\circ})}=1752 ft=534 m

2)

In order to find how long the mortar shell remain in the air, we can use the equation:

t=\frac{x}{u cos \theta}

where:

x = 1322 ft is the final position of the shell when it strikes the hill

u=156 ft/s is the initial velocity of the shell

\theta=49.0^{\circ} is the angle of projection of the shell

Substituting these values into the equation, we find the time of flight of the shell:

t=\frac{1322}{(156)(cos 49^{\circ})}=12.9 s

3)

In order to find the final speed of the shell, we have to compute its horizontal and vertical velocity first.

The horizontal component of the velocity is constant and it is

v_x = u cos \theta =(156)(cos 49^{\circ})=102.3 ft/s

Instead, the vertical component of the velocity is given by

v_y=usin \theta -gt

And substituting at t = 12.9 s (time at which the shell strikes the hill),

v_y=(156)(cos 49^{\circ})-(32)(12.9)=-310.4ft/s

Therefore, the  final speed of the shell is:

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{(102.3)^2+(-310.4)^2}=326.8 ft/s=99.6 m/s
