A pursuit spacecraft from the planet Tatooine is attempting to catch up with a Trade Federation cruiser. As measured by an obser

ver on Tatooine, the cruiser is traveling away from the planet at 0.600c. The pursuit ship is traveling at 0.800c relative to Tatooine, in the same direction as the cruiser. What is the speed of the cruiser relative to the pursuit ship?

A force gives a 5.0 kg object an acceleration of 2.0 m/s 2. The same force would give a 20 kg object an acceleration of _____. 0
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

m = 5 kg

a = 2 m/s²

to find the force that accelerates the 4 kg object @ 2 m/s²

F = ma = 5 kg x 2 m/s² = 10 N

To find what acceleration 10 N would give a 20 kg object

a = F/m = 10 N/20 kg = 0.5 m/s

Water flows straight down from an open faucet. The cross-sectional area of the faucet is 2.4 × 10-4m2 and the speed of the water
Ksenya-84 [330]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the continuity equations in the fluid and the kinematic equation for the description of the displacement, velocity and acceleration.

By definition the movement of the Fluid under the terms of Speed, acceleration and displacement is,

v_2^2 = v_1^2 + 2gh

Where,

V_i = Velocity in each state

g= Gravity

h = Height

Our values are given as,

A_1 = 2.4*10^{-4} m^2

v_1 = 0.8 m/s

h = 0.11m

Replacing at the kinetic equation to find V_2 we have,

v_2 = \sqrt{v_1^2 + 2gh}

v_2 = \sqrt{(0.8 m/s)^2 + 2(9.80 m/s2)(0.11 m)}

v_2= 1.67 m/s

Applying the concepts of continuity,

A_1v_1 = A_2v_2

We need to find A_2 then,

A_2= \frac{A_1v_1 }{v_2}

So the cross sectional area of the water stream at a point 0.11 m below the faucet is

A_2= \frac{A_1v_1 }{v_2}

A_2= \frac{(2.4*10^{-4})(0.8)}{(1.67)}

A_2= 1.14*10^{-4} m2

Therefore the cross-sectional area of the water stream at a point 0.11 m below the faucet is 1.14*10^{-4} m2

A car traveling at 23m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 7 seconds. What is the acceleration?
Lena [83]

The car has an initial velocity v_0 of 23 m/s and a final velocity v of 0 m/s. Recall that for constant acceleration,

v=v_0+at

The car stops in 7 s, so the acceleration is

0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}=23\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}+a(7\,\mathrm s)

\implies a\approx-3.29\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}
