First, you will investigate purely vertical motion. The kinematics equation for vertical motion (ignoring air resistance) is giv

en by y(t)=y0+v0t−(1/2)gt2 , where y0=0 is the initial position, v0 is the initial speed, and g is the acceleration due to gravity. Drag the cannon downwards so it is at ground level, or 0 m (which represents the initial height of the object), then fire the pumpkin straight upward (at an angle of 90∘) with an initial speed of 14 m/s . How long does it take for the pumpkin to hit the ground?

Answer: It takes 2.85 seconds.

Explanation: according to the question, the kinematics equation for vertical motion is

y(t) = y_{0} + v_{0} .t - \frac{1}{2} .gt^{2}

y₀ is the initial postion and equals 0 because it is fired at ground level;

v₀ is the initial speed and eqauls 14m/s;

g is gravity and it is 9.8m/s²;

y(t) is the final position and equals 0 because it is when the pumpkin hits the ground;

Rewriting the equation, we have:

0 + 14t - \frac{1}{2}.9.8.t^{2} = 0

14t - 4.9t² = 0

t(14 - 4.9t) = 0

For this equation to be zero,

t = 0 or

14 - 4.9t = 0

- 4.9t = - 14

t = \frac{14}{4.9}

t = 2.86

It takes 2.86 seconds for the pumpkin to hit the ground.

Kūna veikia jėga kurios momentas 0,4 N × m petys - 5 cm. Koks šios jėgos dydis?​
umka21 [38]

Answer:

F = 8 N

Explanation:

The question says "The body is subjected to a force with a moment of 0.4 N × m shoulder - 5 cm. What is the magnitude of this force?

Given that,

Moment/Torque, \tau=0.4\ N-m

Distance moved, d = 5 cm = 0.05 m

We need to find the magnitude of this force. We know that, the torque acting on an object is given by :

\tau=Fd\\\\F=\dfrac{\tau}{d}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.4\ N-m}{0.05\ m}\\\\F=8\ N

So, the magnitude of force is equal to 8 N.

Sprinters push off from the ball of their foot, then bend their knee to bring their foot up close to the body as they swing thei
Nataliya [291]

There are two interchangeable concepts that can be applied to this theory. The first one is the moment of Inertia and the second the perioricity. When the runners put their leg forward they reduce their moment of inertia allowing their center of mass to maintain the speed they carry and not waste energy. In this way when they swing, the leg begins to act as a kind of pendulum, and remember that the pendulum is directly proportional to the length, that is,

T = 2 \pi \sqrt {l / g}

In this way, by bringing their legs closer they reduce the distance and make the period shorter.
