An attack helicopter is equipped with a 20- mm cannon that fires 87 g shells in the forward direction with a muzzle speed of 853

m/s. The fully loaded helicopter has a mass of 4410 kg. A burst of 176 shells is fired in a 2.93 s interval. What is the resulting average force on the helicopter?

Answer:

4457.7 N

Explanation:

87g = 0.087kg

v = 853m/s

t = 2.93 s

total mass hitting = m = 0.087*176 = 15.32 kg

net momentum = mv = 15.32*853 = 13061 kg.m/s

as we know the rate of change of momentum is the average force of impact,

F_avg = $\frac{mv}{t}$ = $\frac{13061}{2.93}$ = 4457.7 kg.m/s^2 = 4457.7 N

Answer

given,

mass of the shell = 87 g = 0.087 Kg

speed of the muzzle = 853 m/s

mass of the helicopter = 4410 kg

A burst of 176 shell fired in 2.93 s

resulting average force = ?

momentum of the shell = m v

= 0.087 x 853

= 74.21 kgm/s

momentum of 176 shell is = 176 p

= 176 x 74.21

= 13060.96

momentum of helicopter = - 13060.96 kgm/s

amount of speed reduce a = $\dfrac{13060.96}{M}$

a= $\dfrac{13060.96}{4410}$

a = 2.96 m/s²

velocity = \dfrac{2.96}{2.93}

v = 1.01 m/s

An object has a mass of 120 kg on the moon. What is the force of gravity acting on the object on the moon? A. 12.24 N B. 196 N C

Lady_Fox [76]

Correct answer: B
The force of gravity acting on the object on the moon can be found by multiplying its mass by the acceleration due to gravity on the moon. The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is a constant and is approximately 1.63m/s².
120kg×1.63m/s²=195.6kg.m/s²
kg.m/s²=N
<span>The force of gravity acting on the object on the moon would be of approximately 196N.</span>

Consider two laboratory carts of different masses but identical kinetic energies and the three following statements. I. The one

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

d) I and III only.

Explanation:

Let be $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ the masses of the two laboratory carts and let suppose that $m_{1} > m_{2}$ . The expressions for each kinetic energy are, respectively:

$K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m_{1}\cdot v_{1}^{2}$ and $K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m_{2}\cdot v_{2}^{2}$ .

After some algebraic manipulation, the following relation is constructed:

$\frac{m_{1}}{m_{2}} = \left(\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}\right)^{2}$

Since $\frac{m_{1}}{m_{2}} > 1$ , then $\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} > 1$ . That is to say, $v_{1} < v_{2}$ .

The expressions for each linear momentum are, respectively:

$p_{1} = \frac{2\cdot K}{v_{1}} = m_{1}\cdot v_{1}$ and $p_{2} = \frac{2\cdot K}{v_{2}} = m_{2}\cdot v_{2}$

Since $v_{1} < v_{2}$ , then $p_{1} > p_{2}$ . Which proves that statement I is true.

According to the Impulse Theorem, the impulse needed by cart I is greater than impulse needed by cart II, which proves that statement II is false.

According to the Work-Energy Theorem, both carts need the same amount of work to stop them. Which proves that statement III is true.

A 3 kg mass object is pushed 0.6 m into a spring with spring constant 210 N/m on a frictionless horizontal surface. Upon release

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of spring,m=3 kg

Distance moved by object,d=0.6 m

Spring constant,k=210N/m

Height,h=1.5 m

a.Work done to compress the spring initially= $\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}(210)(0.6)^2=37.8J$

b.

By conservation law of energy

Initial energy of spring=Kinetic energy of object

$37.8=\frac{1}{2}(3)v^2$

$v^2=\frac{37.8\times 2}{3}$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{37.8\times 2}{3}}$

v=5.02 m/s

c.Work done by friction on the incline, $w_{friction}=P.E-spring \;energy$

$W_{friction}=3\times 9.8\times 1.5-37.8=6.3 J$
