What factor causes atmospheric pressure
bagirrra123 [75]
Atmospheric pressure is caused by the weight of the atmosphere pushing down on itself and on the surface below it.
Pressure is defined as the force acting on an object divided by the area upon witch the force is acting.

What is the (magnitude of the) centripetal acceleration (as a multiple of g=9.8~\mathrm{m/s^2}g=9.8 m/s ​2 ​​ ) towards the Eart
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration as a multiple of g=9.8 m/s^{2} is 1.020x10^{-3}m/s^{2}

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is defined as:

a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}  (1)

Where v is the velocity and r is the radius

Since the person is standing in the Earth surfaces, their velocity will be the same of the Earth. That one can be determined by means of the orbital velocity:

v = \frac{2 \pi r}{T}  (2)

Where r is the radius and T is the period.

For this case the person is standing at a latitude 71.9^{\circ}. Remember that the latitude is given from the equator. The configuration of this system is shown in the image below.

It is necessary to use the radius at the latitude given. That radius can be found by means of trigonometric.

\cos \theta = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

\cos \theta = \frac{r_{71.9^{\circ}}}{r_{e}} (3)

Where r_{71.9^{\circ}} is the radius at the latitude of 71.9^{\circ} and r_{e} is the radius at the equator (6.37x10^{6}m).

r_{71.9^{\circ}} can be isolated from equation 3:

r_{71.9^{\circ}} = r_{e} \cos \theta  (4)

r_{71.9^{\circ}} = (6.37x10^{6}m) \cos (71.9^{\circ})

r_{71.9^{\circ}} = 1.97x10^{6} m

Then, equation 2 can be used

v = \frac{2 \pi (1.97x10^{6} m)}{24h}

Notice that the period is the time that the Earth takes to give a complete revolution (24 hours), this period will be expressed in seconds for a better representation of the velocity.

T = 24h . \frac{3600s}{1h} ⇒ 84600s

v = \frac{2 \pi (1.97x10^{6} m)}{84600s}

v = 146.31m/s

Finally, equation 1 can be used:

a = \frac{(146.31m/s)^{2}}{(1.97x10^{6}m)}

a = 0.010m/s^{2}

Hence, the centripetal acceleration is 0.010m/s^{2}

To given the centripetal acceleration as a multiple of g=9.8 m/s^{2}​ it is gotten:

\frac{0.010m/s^{2}}{9.8 m/s^{2}} = 1.020x10^{-3}m/s^{2}

The initial kinetic energy imparted to a 0.020 kg bullet is 1200 J. (a) Assuming it
Lilit [14]

Answer:

(a) Power= 207.97 kW

(b) Range= 5768.6 meter

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of bullet, m=0.02 kg

Kinetic energy imparted, K=1200 J

Length of rifle barrel, d=1 m

(a)

Let the speed of bullet when it leaves the barrel is v.

Kinetic energy, K=\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m} }

=\sqrt{\frac{2\times1200}{0.02} }

=346.4m/s

Initial speed of bullet, u=0

The average speed in the barrel, v_a_v_g=\frac{u+v}{2}

=\frac{0+346.4}{2} \\=173.2 m/s

Time taken by bullet to cross the barrel, t=\frac{d}{v}

=\frac{1}{173.2}\\ =0.00577 second

Power, P_a_v_g=\frac{W}{t}

=\frac{1200}{0.00577} \\=207.97kW

(b)

In projectile motion,

Maximum height, H_m=\frac{v^2\sin^2\theta}{2g} \\

Range, R=\frac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}

given that, H_m=R

then, \frac{v^2\sin^2\theta}{2g}=\frac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\\sin^2\theta=2\sin\theta\cos\theta\\\\\tan\theta=4\\\theta=\tan^-^14\\\theta=75.96^0\\R=\frac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\=\frac{346.4^2\times\sin(2\times75.96)}{9.8}\\5768.6 meter
