Answer:

485520 m

Explanation:

v_{o} = initial velocity of the projectile = 1360 m/s

v_{f} = final velocity of the projectile = \left ( \frac{2}{5} \right )v_{_{o}} = \left ( \frac{2}{5} \right )(1360) = 544 m/s

a = acceleraton due to gravity on moon = - 1.6 m/s²

h = Altitude of the projectile

Using the kinematics equation

v_{f}^{2} = v_{o}^{2} + 2 a h

Inserting the values

544^{2} = 1360^{2} + 2 (-1.6) h

h = 485520 m

1. An express train, traveling at 36 m/s, is accidentally sidetracked onto a local train track. The express engineer spots a loc
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

(i) 12 seconds

(ii) 216 meters from the initial position

(iii) 132 meters from the initial position

(iv) No

Explanation:

Speed of express train =36 m/s

Speed of local train =11 m/s

The initial distance between the local train and passenger train =100 m.

Due to the application of breaks, the express train slows at the rare of 3.0 m/s^2.

So, the acceleration of the express train, a=-3 m/s^2.

(i) Let t be the time the express train takes to stop.

From the equation of motion,

v=u+at

where, v: final velocity, u: initial velocity, a: constant acceleration, t: time taken to change the speed from u to v.

In this case, v=0, u=36 m/s, a=-3 m/s^2

So, 0=36+(-3)t

\Rightarrow t= 36/3=12 seconds.

(ii) To compute the distance traveled, s, till the express train stops, using

v^2=u^2+2as

\Rightarrow 0^2=36^2+2(-3)s

\Rightarrow s=\frac{36\times36}{6}

\Rightarrow s=216 meters.

(iii) The local train is moving at a speed of 11 m/s

So, in 12 seconds, the distance, d, traveled by the local train

d= 11x12=132 meters [as distance= speed x time]

(iv) Let 0 be the reference position which is the initial position of the express train.

So, at the initial time, the position of the local train is at 100m.

After 12 seconds:

The position of the express train is at 216 m [using part (ii)]

and the position of the local train is at 100+132=232m  [using part (iii)].

So, the local train is still ahead of the express train, hence the trains didn't collide.

Dylan has two cubes of iron. The larger cube has twice the mass of the smaller cube. He measures the smaller cube. Its mass is 2
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The volume of the larger cube is 5.08 g/cm³.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of smaller cube = 20 g

Density of smaller cube \rho= 7.87 g/cm^2

Dylan has two cubes of iron.

The larger cube has twice the mass of the smaller cube.

M_{l}=2m_{s}

Density is same for both cubes because both cubes are same material.

The density is equal to the mass divided by the volume.

\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}

V=\dfrac{m}{\rho}

Where, V = volume

m = mass

\rho=density

We need to calculate the volume of smaller mass

The volume of smaller mass

V_{s}=\dfrac{m_{s}}{\rho_{s}}

V_{s}=\dfrac{20}{7.87}

V_{s}=2.54\ cm^3

Now, We need to calculate the volume of large cube

V_{l}=\dfrac{m_{l}}{\rho_{l}}

V_{l}=\dfrac{2\times20}{7.87}

V_{l}=5.08\ g/cm^3

Hence, The volume of the larger cube is 5.08 g/cm³.
