Answer:

A Fan Cart Initially Has An Acceleration Of 1.6m/s/s When It's Fan Is Directed Straight Backwards. If You Rotate The Fan By 45o, By What Percentage Do You Expect The Fan Cart's Thrust To Decrease? (Answer Should Be In Units Of 96)

a. 45%

b. 29%

c. 71%

d. 50%

The correct answer is d.

d. 50%

Explanation:

Fan cart acceleration = 1.6 m/s²

Thrust = 0.25×π×D²×ρ×v×Δv

where Δv = acceleration component and all factors remaining cconstant, when the fan is rotated by 45 ° the diameter changes to D₂ = sin 45 ×D

or 0.707×D. The thrust becomes 0.25×π×(0.707×D)²×ρ×v×Δv

=0.25×π×0.5×D²×ρ×v×Δv or 0.5(0.25×π×D²×ρ×v×Δv)

That is the thrust reduces by 50 %

A block whose weight is 45 N rests on a horizontal table. A horizontal force of 36 N is applied to the block. The coefficient of
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

1.5 m/s²

Explanation:

For the block to move, it must first overcome the static friction.

Fs = N μs

Fs = (45 N) (0.42)

Fs = 18.9 N

This is less than the 36 N applied, so the block will move.  Since the block is moving, kinetic friction takes over.  To find the block's acceleration, use Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

F − N μk = ma

36 N − (45 N) (0.65) = (45 N / 9.8 m/s²) a

6.75 N = 4.59 kg a

a = 1.47 m/s²

Rounded to two significant figures, the block's acceleration is 1.5 m/s².

Usually the coefficient of static friction is greater than the coefficient of kinetic friction.  You might want to double check the problem statement, just to be sure.

Even if there were some friction on the ice, it is still possible to use conservation of momentum to solve this problem, but you
hjlf

The problem referred to in this question is missing and it is;

Two hockey pucks of identical mass are on a flat, horizontal ice hockey rink. The red puck is motionless; the blue puck is moving at 2.5 m/s to the left. It collides with the motionless red puck. The pucks have a mass of 15 g. After the collision, the red puck is moving at 2.5 m/s, to the left. What is the final velocity of the blue puck?

Answer:

The condition is that p_f - p_i which is the change in momentum will not be equal to zero but equal to the impulse (Ft).

Explanation:

In the problem described, by inspection, we can say that since there is no friction, we have a closed system and thus momentum is conserved.

Since momentum is conserved, we can say that;

Initial momentum(p_i) = final momentum(p_f)

Now, in this question we are told that some friction wants to be introduced on the ice and it's possible to still use conservation of momentum.

From impulse - momentum theory, we know that;

Impulse = change in momentum

Impulse is zero when no force is acting on the ice and we have; 0 = p_f - p_i

This will yield initial momentum = final momentum.

Now, since a force is applied, we know that impulse is; J = F × t

Thus;

Ft = p_f - p_i

Where F is the force due to friction.

Thus, the condition is that p_f - p_i will not be equal to zero

vladimir2022 [97]

B) Weather changes day to day, while climate changes region to region.

Climate is the weather in a certain area. It's usually the average weather over a long period of time

Weather is in shorter terms then climate

Hope this helped!
