Greater the collision

Explanation:

The greater the speed of gas particles in the containers, the greater the collision of gases with the container and between themselves.

The speed of gas molecules increases when their kinetic energy increases.
This causes a surge in collision between the particles and the wall of the container.
A gas is composed of large number of molecules moving at different speeds.
When the temperature of gases are increased, they gain more kinetic energy and their speed will increase.
This leads to an increase in effective collision between gas particles.

A cannonball is fired perfectly horizontally from the top of a 210 m tall cliff. It is fired with an initial velocity of 50 m/s.

pochemuha

Answer:

the horizontal distance covered by the cannonball before it hits the ground is 327.5 m

Explanation:

Given;

height of the cliff, h = 210 m

initial horizontal velocity of the cannonball, Ux = 50 m/s

initial vertical velocity of the cannonball, Uy = 0

The time for the cannonball to reach the ground is calculated as;

$h = u_yt - \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = 0 - \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 210}{9.8} }\\\\t = 6.55 \ s$

The horizontal distance covered by the cannonball before it hits the ground is calculated as;

$X = U_x \times \ t\\\\X = 50 \times \ 6.55\\\\X = 327.5 \ m$

Therefore, the horizontal distance covered by the cannonball before it hits the ground is 327.5 m

You are a member of an alpine rescue team and must project a box of supplies, with mass m, up an incline of constant slope angle

AlekseyPX

Answer:

$v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}$

Explanation:

When we push the box from the bottom of the incline towards the top then by work energy theorem we can say that

Work done by all the forces = change in kinetic energy of the system

$- mgh - F_f (s) = 0 - \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

here we know that

$F_f = \mu_k mg cos\theta$

also we know that the length of the incline is given as

$s = \frac{h}{sin\theta}$

now we have

$- mgh - \mu_k mgcos\theta(\frac{h}{sin\theta}) = -\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

so we have

$v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}$

A 500 kg sack of coal falls vertically onto a 2000 kg railroad flatcar which was initially moving horizontally at 3 m/s. no exte

Zinaida [17]

Since there are no external forces, including friction, act on the flatcar. after the sack rests on the flatcar, we would assume that momentum is conserved. This means that

total momentum of car before collision = total momentum of car after collision.

Recall,

momentum = mass x velocity

From the information given,

mass of car before collision = 2000

velocity of car before collision = 3

Thus,

total momentum of car before collision = 2000 x 3 = 6000

Also,

mass of sack = 500

mass of car and sack after collision = 500 + 2000 = 2500

velocity after collision = v

momentum after collision = 2500 x v = 2500v

Since momentum is conserved, then

6000 = 2500v

v = 6000/2500

v = 2.4

the speed of the flatcar is 2.4 m/s

Light travels through a liquid at 2.25e8 m/s. What is the index of refraction of the liquid?

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

The index of refraction of the liquid is n = 1.33 equivalent to that of water

Explanation:

Solution:-

- The index of refraction of light in a medium ( n ) determines the degree of "bending" of light in that medium.

- The index of refraction is material property and proportional to density of the material.

- The denser the material the slower the light will move through associated with considerable diffraction angles.

- The lighter the material the faster the light pass through the material without being diffracted as much.

- So, in the other words index of refraction can be expressed as how fast or slow light passes through a medium.

- The reference of comparison of how fast or slow the light is the value of c = 3.0*10^8 m/s i.e speed of light in vacuum or also assumed to be the case for air.

- so we can mathematically express the index of refraction as a ratio of light speed in the material specified and speed of light.

- The light passes through a liquid with speed v = 2.25*10^8 m/s :

$n = c / v\\\\n = \frac{ 3*10^8 }{2.25*10^8} \\\\n = 1.33$

- The index of refraction of the liquid is n = 1.33 equivalent to that of water.
