The speed v of an object falling with a constant acceleration g can be expressed in terms of g and the distance traveled from th

e point of release, h, as v = kgp hq, where k, p, and q, are dimensionless constants. What must be the values of p and q?

Answer:

So the values are  p= \frac{1}{2} , q= \frac{1}{2}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

         The equation is  v =  k [g^p][h^q]

Now dimension of  v (speed ) is

          v  = m/s =  LT^{-1}

Now dimension of  g (acceleration  ) is

        g=  m/s^2 =  LT^{-2}

Now dimension of  h  (vertical distance  ) is        

        h= m  = L

So  

         LT^{-1} =   [ [LT^{-2}]^p][[ L]^q]

       LT^{-1} =   [ [T^{-2p}][[ L]^{p +q}]

Equating powers

       1 =p+q

       -1 = -2p

=>      p= \frac{1}{2}

and

        q= 1 -\frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{2}

A freight train has a mass of [02] kg. The wheels of the locomotive push back on the tracks with a constant net force of 7.50 ×
otez555 [7]

Answer:

t = 300.3 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a freight train, m=1.01\times 10^7\ kg

Force applied on the tracks, F=7.5\times 10^5\ N

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 80 km/h = 22.3 m/s

We need to find the time taken by it to increase the speed of the train from rest.

The force acting on it is given by :

F = ma

or

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{F}\\\\t=\dfrac{1.01\times 10^7\times (22.3-0)}{7.5\times 10^5}\\\\t=300.3\ s

So, the required time is 300.3 seconds.

An airplane is flying in a horizontal circle at a speed of 480 km/h. If its wings are tilted 40° to the horizontal, what is the
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

r = 2161.9 m

Explanation:

Aerodynamic lift(L) is perpendicular to the wing, which is tilted 40 degrees to the horizontal.

Since the plane is moving in a horizontal circle, the vertical component of the lift must cancel the weight W of the airplane, but the horizontal component is the centripetal force that keeps it in a circle.

L is perpendicular to wing at angle θ with respect to horizontal

Thus,

Vertical component of lift is:

L cosθ = W = mg

Thus, m = L cosθ / g - - - - (eq1)

Horizontal component of lift is:

L sinθ = centripetal force = mv² / r - - - - (eq2)

Combining equations 1 and 2,we have;

L sinθ = (L cosθ / g)(v² / r)

L cancels out on both sides to give;

tanθ = v²/ rg

r = v² / (g tanθ)

We are given;

velocity; v = 480 km/hr = 480 x 10/36 = 133.33 m/s

r = 133.33²/[(9.8) tan(40)] = 2161.9 m
