A boat of mass 250 kg is coasting, with its engine in neutral, through the water at speed 1.00 m/s when it starts to rain with i

ncredible intensity. The rain is falling vertically, and it accumulates in the boat at the rate of 100 kg/hr . What is the speed of the boat after time 0.500 hr has passed7 Assume that the water resistance is negligible. Express your answer in meters per second. Now assume that the boat is subject to a drag force Fd due to water resistance. Is the component of the total momentum of the system parallel to the direction of motion still conserved? The boat is subject to an external force, the drag force due to water resistance, and therefore its momentum is not conserved. The drag is proportional to the square of the speed of the boat, in the form Fd = bv2 where b = 0.5 N. s2/m2. What is the acceleration of the boat just after the rain starts'7 Take the positive x axis along the direction of motion. Express your answer in meters per second per second.

Answer:

Explanation:

1. We use the conservation of momentum for before the raining and after. And also we take into account that in 0.5h the accumulated water is

100kg/h*0.5h = 50kg

p_{b}=p_{a}\\M_{b}v_{b}=(M_{b}+m_{r})v_{a}\\v_{a}=\frac{M_{b}v_{b}}{M_{b}+m_{r}}=\frac{250kg*1\frac{m}{s}}{250kg+50kg}=0.83\frac{m}{s}

2. the momentum does not conserve because the drag force of water makes that the boat loses velocity

3. If we assume that the force of the boat before the raining is

F=ma=m\frac{v-v_{0}}{t-t_{0}}=250kg\frac{1m}{s^{2}}=250N

where we have assumed that the acceleration of the boat is 1m/s{2} just before the rain starts

And if we take the net force as

F_{net}=M_{b}a_{net}=F-F_{d}=250N-bv^{2}\\F_{net}=250N-0.5N\frac{s^{2}}{m^{2}}(1\frac{m}{s})^{2}=249.5N\\a_{net}=\frac{249.5N}{M_{b}}=\frac{249.5N}{250kg}=0.99\frac{m}{s^{2}}

where we take v=1m/s because we are taking into account tha velocity just after the rain stars.

I hope this is useful for you

Derive the formula for the moment of inertia of a uniform, flat, rectangular plate of dimensions l and w, about an axis through
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

A uniform thin rod with an axis through the center

Consider a uniform (density and shape) thin rod of mass M and length L as shown in (Figure). We want a thin rod so that we can assume the cross-sectional area of the rod is small and the rod can be thought of as a string of masses along a one-dimensional straight line. In this example, the axis of rotation is perpendicular to the rod and passes through the midpoint for simplicity. Our task is to calculate the moment of inertia about this axis. We orient the axes so that the z-axis is the axis of rotation and the x-axis passes through the length of the rod, as shown in the figure. This is a convenient choice because we can then integrate along the x-axis.

We define dm to be a small element of mass making up the rod. The moment of inertia integral is an integral over the mass distribution. However, we know how to integrate over space, not over mass. We therefore need to find a way to relate mass to spatial variables. We do this using the linear mass density of the object, which is the mass per unit length. Since the mass density of this object is uniform, we can write

λ = m/l (orm) = λl

If we take the differential of each side of this equation, we find

d m = d ( λ l ) = λ ( d l )

since  

λ

is constant. We chose to orient the rod along the x-axis for convenience—this is where that choice becomes very helpful. Note that a piece of the rod dl lies completely along the x-axis and has a length dx; in fact,  

d l = d x

in this situation. We can therefore write  

d m = λ ( d x )

, giving us an integration variable that we know how to deal with. The distance of each piece of mass dm from the axis is given by the variable x, as shown in the figure. Putting this all together, we obtain

I=∫r2dm=∫x2dm=∫x2λdx.

The last step is to be careful about our limits of integration. The rod extends from x=−L/2x=−L/2 to x=L/2x=L/2, since the axis is in the middle of the rod at x=0x=0. This gives us

I=L/2∫−L/2x2λdx=λx33|L/2−L/2=λ(13)[(L2)3−(−L2)3]=λ(13)L38(2)=ML(13)L38(2)=112ML2.

The wavelength of green light is about the size of an atom. (T/F)
Snowcat [4.5K]

Explanation:

The wavelength of green light is about 500 nanometers, or two thousandths of a millimeter. The typical wavelength of a microwave oven is about 12 centimeters, which is larger than a baseball.

You have two lightweight metal spheres, each hanging from an insulating nylon thread. One of the spheres has a net negative char
kkurt [141]

Answer:attract each other

Explanation:

When two-sphere, one with a negative charge and another neutral is brought close together but do not touch then they try to attract each other.

This because of the polarization of the neutral sphere as it is placed in the vicinity of a negatively charged sphere. The negatively charged sphere will induce the positive charge in the neutral sphere and they will attract each other according to Columb law.
