A lunch pail is accidentally kicked off a steel beam on a building under construction. Suppose the initial horizontal speed is 1

.50 m/s. How far does the lunch pail fall after it travels 3.50 m horizontally? 8. If the building in problem 7 is 2.50 × 10 2 m tall, and the lunch pail is knocked off the top floor, what will be the horizontal displacement of the lunch pail when it reaches the ground?

1) 26.6 m

Along the horizontal direction, the lunch pail is moving with a uniform motion (constant speed), since there are no forces acting in this direction.

Therefore, the distance travelled horizontally after a time t is given by:

d=v_x t

where we know

v_x = 1.50 m/s is the horizontal velocity

d = 3.50 m is the distance covered horizontally

Solving for t, we find the total time of the motion:

t=\frac{d}{v_x}=\frac{3.50}{1.50}=2.33 s

Now we know that the pail takes 2.33 s to fall to the ground. We can now consider the vertical motion of the pail, which is a free fall motion, so the vertical displacement is given by the equation

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where, taking downward as positive direction:

u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Substutting t = 2.33 s, we find how fat the pail has fallen:

s=\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(2.33)^2=26.6 m

2) 10.7 m

In this case, we know instead the vertical displacement:

s=2.50\cdot 10^2 m = 250 m

Therefore, we can use the same equation again

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

To find the total time of motion:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(250)}{9.8}}=7.14 s

We know that along the horizontal direction, the velocity is constant:

v_x = 1.50 m/s

So, the horizontal distance covered in this time is

d=v_x t = (1.50)(7.14)=10.7 m

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

So the sound intensity level they would experience without the earplugs is 110.32dB.

Explanation:

Given data

Sound intensity by factor =215

Sound intensity level =87 dB

To find

Sound intensity level they would experience without the earplugs

Solution

First we need to find the new sound intensity level

So

I_{n}=215(10^{\frac{87}{10} } )\\I_{n}=1.08*10^{11})

The dB can be calculated as:

dB=10log(I_{n})\\

Substitute the given values

dB=10log(1.08*10^{11})\\dB=110.32dB

So the sound intensity level they would experience without the earplugs is 110.32dB.

Two loudspeakers emit sound waves along the x-axis. The sound has maximum intensity when the speakers are 20 cm apart. The sound
Sophie [7]

Answer:

a. Wavelength = λ = 20 cm

b. Next distance of maximum intensity will be 40 cm

Explanation:

a. The distance between the two speakers is 20cm. SInce the intensity is maximum which refers that we have constructive interference and the phase difference must be an even multiple of π and equivalent path difference is nλ.

Now when distance increases upto 30 cm between the speakers, the sound intensity becomes zero which means that there is destructive interference and equivalent path is now increased from nλ to nλ + λ/2.

This we get the equation:

(nλ + λ/2) - nλ = 30-20

λ/2 = 10

λ = 20 cm

b. at what distance, sound intensity will be maximum again.

For next point calculation for maximum sound intensity, the path difference must be increased (n+1) λ. The distance must increase by λ/2 from the point of zero intensity.

= 30 + λ/2

= 30 + 20/2

=30+10

=40 cm

What's the minimum Out PUT WORK<br> required to raise 14,0m3 of water 26.0m?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

3.57 MJ

Explanation:

ASSUMING it's fresh water with density of 1000 kg/m³

W = ΔPE = mgΔh = 14.0(1000)(9.81)(26.0) = 3,570,840 J

Salt water would require more.

Some machines do not multiply the force that is applied to them
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Machine Efficiency

Explanation:

Efficiency is the percent of work put into a machine by the user (input work) that becomes work done by the machine (output work). The output work is always less than the input work because some of the input work is used to overcome friction. Therefore, efficiency is always less than 100 percent
