u = 30ms^{-1}
\\t = 0.75s
\\a = 9.8ms^{-2} (Gravity)
\\s = ?

s = ut +  \frac{1}{2}at^2
\\s = (30)(0.75)+ \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(0.75)^2
\\s = 22.5 + 2.75625
\\s = 25.25625

<u>s = 25.3 m (3 sf)</u>

An aircraft is coming in for a landing at 300 meters height when the propeller falls off. The aircraft is flying at 40.0 m/s hor
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer

given,

height = 300 m

speed of aircraft = 40 m/s

propeller rotation = 20 rev/s

moment of inertia = I = 70 Kg/m²

mass = 200 Kg

since no non conservative force  act on system, the mechanical energy is conserved after propeller fall off.

by conservation of energy

       E_i = E_f

       mgh + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2_i=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2_f

as there is no air resistance ωi = ωf

       mgh + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2

       v_f=\sqrt{v_i^2 + 2gh}

       v_f=\sqrt{40^2+ 2\times 9.8 \times 300}

       v_f=86.48\ m/s

b) the rotation rate of the propeller remains same as there is no air resistance.

How are Earth and Venus similar? How is Venus different from Earth? (Provide two similarities and two differences.)
Alika [10]
Venus shares a similar size, surface composition, and has an atmosphere with a complex weather system. Venus is different from Earth because it spins the opposite direction of Earth and it’s rotation is very slow.

The momentum of an electron is 1.75 times larger than the value computed non-relativistically. What is the speed of the electron
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

<em>Speed of the electron is 2.46 x 10^8 m/s</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

momentum of the electron before relativistic effect = M_{0} V

where M_{0} is the rest mass of the electron

V is the velocity of the electron.

under relativistic effect, the mass increases.

under relativistic effect, the new mass M will be

M = M_{0}/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2}  }

where

\beta = V/c

c  is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

V is the speed with which the electron travels.

The new momentum will therefore be

==> M_{0}V/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2}  }

It is stated that the relativistic momentum is 1.75 times the non-relativistic momentum. Equating, we have

1.75M_{0} V = M_{0}V/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2}  }

the equation reduces to

1.75 = 1/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2}  }

square both sides of the equation, we have

3.0625 = 1/(1 - \beta ^{2} )

3.0625 - 3.0625\beta ^{2} = 1

2.0625 = 3.0625\beta ^{2}

\beta ^{2} = 0.67

β = 0.819

substitute for  \beta = V/c

V/c = 0.819

V = c x 0.819

V = 3 x 10^8 x 0.819 = <em>2.46 x 10^8 m/s</em>

A mass of 790 kg is hanging from a crane (neglect the mass of the cable and the hook). While the mass is being lowered, it is sp
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of object hanging from crane is m=790\ kg

mass is speeding up with a=2.7\ m/s^2

If T is the Tension in the cable then

mg-T=ma

T=mg-ma

T=m(g-a)

T=790\times (9.8-2.7)

T=790\times 7.1

T=5609\ N
