Juliette [100K]

0.017s

Explanation:

Given parameter

Distance = 5000km = 5 x 10⁶m

Unknown:

time taken = ?

Solution:

We use the normal speed equation to solve this problem as we take the speed of the wave to be 3 x 10⁸m/s.

   Speed = \frac{Distance }{Time taken}

   Inputting the parameters:

             Time taken = \frac{distance }{velocity of the wave}

  Time taken = \frac{ 5 000000}{3 00000000} = 0.017s

baseball is hit into the air at an initial speed of 37.2 m/s and an angle of 49.3 ° above the horizontal. At the same time, the
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The average speed of the fielder is 5.24 m/s

Explanation:

The position vector of the ball after it was hit can be calculated using the following equation:

r = (x0 + v0 · t · cos α, y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²)

Where:

r = position vector at time t.

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

α = launching angle.

y0 = initial vertical position

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

Please, see the attached figure for a graphical description of the problem.

When the ball is caught, its position vector will be (see r1 in the figure):

r1 = (r1x, 0.873 m)

Then, using the equation of the position vector written above:

r1x = x0 + v0 · t · cos α

0.873 m = y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

Since the frame of reference is located at the point where the ball was hit, x0 and y0 = 0. Then:

r1x = v0 · t · cos α

0.873 m = v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

Let´s use the equation of the y-component of r1 to obtain the time of flight of the ball:

0.873 m = 37.2 m/s · t · sin 49.3° - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²

0 = -0.873 m + 37.2 m/s · t · sin 49.3° - 4.9 m/s² · t²

Solving the quadratic equation:

t = 0.03 s and t = 5.72 s.

It would be impossible to catch the ball immediately after it is hit at t = 0.03 s. Besides, the problem says that the ball was caught on its way down. Then, the time of flight of the ball is 5.72 s.

With this time, we can calculate r1x which is the horizontal distance traveled by the ball from home:

r1x = v0 · t · cos α

r1x = 37.2 m/s · 5.72 s · cos 49.3°

r1x = 1.39 × 10² m

The distance traveled by the fielder is (1.39 × 10² m - 1.09 × 10² m) 30.0 m.

The average velocity is calculated as the traveled distance over time, then:

average velocity = treveled distance / elapsed time

average velocity = 30.0 m / 5.72 s = 5.24 m/s

A sled slides down a hill with friction between the sled and hill but negligible alr resistance. Which of the following must be
Andreyy89

Answer:

A) The sum of the kinetic energy and the gravitational potential energy changes by an amount equal to the energy dissipated by friction,

Explanation:

  • The kinetic energy is the energy that the object has and is defied by the work that is needed to accelerate the body.
  • The gravitational potential is a mechanism by which an equal amount of energy is being transferred per unit mass that is needed for the object to move from the specific location.
  • Hence when the sled moves down the hill with the force of gravity it has negligible resistance as an equal amount of energy is dissipated.

1) The period of a simple pendulum depends on B) III. only (the length of the pendulum)

2) The angular acceleration is C) 15.7 rad/s^2

3) The frequency of the oscillation is C) 1.6 Hz

4) The period of vibration is B) 0.6 s

5) The diameter of the nozzle is A) 5.0 mm

6) The force that must be applied is B) 266.7 N

Explanation:

1)

The period of a simple pendulum is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

where

T is the period

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration of gravity

From the equation, we see that the period of the pendulum depends only on its length and on the acceleration of gravity, while there is no dependence on the mass of the pendulum or on the amplitude of oscillation. Therefore, the correct option is

B) III. only (the length of the pendulum)

2)

The angular acceleration of the rotating disc is given by the equation

\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}

where

\omega_f is the final angular velocity

\omega_i is the initial angular velocity

t is the time elapsed

For the compact disc in this problem we have:

\omega_i = 0 (since it starts from rest)

\omega_f = 300 rpm \cdot \frac{2\pi rad/rev}{60 s/min}=31.4 rad/s is the final angular velocity

t = 2 s

Substituting, we find

\alpha = \frac{31.4-0}{2}=15.7 rad/s^2

3)

For a simple harmonic oscillator, the acceleration and the displacement of the system are related by the equation

a=-\omega^2 x

where

a is the acceleration

x is the displacement

\omega is the angular frequency of the system

For the oscillator in this problem, we have the following relationship

a=-100 x

which implies that

\omega^2 = 100

And so

\omega = \sqrt{100}=10 rad/s

Also, the angular frequency is related to the frequency f by

f=\frac{\omega}{2\pi}

Therefore, the frequency of this simple harmonic oscillator is

f=\frac{10}{2\pi}=1.6 Hz

4)

When the mass is hanging on the sping, the weight of the mass is equal to the restoring force on the spring, so we can write

mg=kx

where

m is the mass

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

k is the spring constant

x = 8.0 cm = 0.08 m is the stretching of the spring

We can re-arrange the equation as

\frac{k}{m}=\frac{g}{x}=\frac{9.8}{0.08}=122.5

The angular frequency of the spring is given by

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}=\sqrt{122.5}=11.1 Hz

And therefore, its period is

T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2\pi}{11.1}=0.6 s

5)

According to the equation of continuity, the volume flow rate must remain constant, so we can write

A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2

where

A_1 = \pi r_1^2 is the cross-sectional area of the hose, with r_1 = 5 mm being the radius of the hose

v_1 = 4 m/s is the speed of the petrol in the hose

A_2 = \pi r_2^2 is the cross-sectional area of the nozzle, with r_2 being the radius of the nozzle

v_2 = 16 m/s is the speed in the nozzle

Solving for r_2, we find the radius of the nozzle:

\pi r_1^2 v_1 = \pi r_2^2 v_2\\r_2 = r_1 \sqrt{\frac{v_1}{v_2}}=(5)\sqrt{\frac{4}{16}}=2.5 mm

So, the diameter of the nozzle will be

d_2 = 2r_2 = 2(2.5)=5.0 mm

6)

According to the Pascal principle, the pressure on the two pistons is the same, so we can write

\frac{F_1}{A_1}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}

where

F_1 is the force that must be applied to the small piston

A_1 = \pi r_1^2 is the area of the first piston, with r_1= 2 cm being its radius

F_2 = mg = (1500 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=14700 N is the force applied on the bigger piston (the weight of the car)

A_2 = \pi r_2^2 is the area of the bigger piston, with r_2= 15 cm being its radius

Solving for F_1, we find

F_1 = \frac{F_2A_1}{A_2}=\frac{F_2 \pi r_1^2}{\pi r_2^2}=\frac{(14700)(2)^2}{(15)^2}=261 N

So, the closest answer is B) 266.7 N.
