A cannon is fired from the edge of a cliff, which is 60m above the sea. The cannonball's initial velocity is 88.3m/s and it is f
wel

Answer:

a. 11.29 s b. 94.72 m/s at -39.8° c. 821.57 m​

Explanation:

a. Using y - y₀ = ut - 1/2gt² where u = vertical component of velocity = v₀sinθ where v₀ = 88.3 m/s and θ = 34.5°, y₀ = + 60 m and y = water surface = 0 m, g = 9.8 m/s² and t = time it takes the cannon to reach the water surface.

So y - y₀ = ut - 1/2gt²

y - y₀ = (v₀sinθ)t - 1/2gt²

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

0 - 60 = (88.3 m/s × sin34.5°)t - 1/2 × 9.8 m/s²× t²

- 60 = 50t - 4.9t²

So, 4.9t² - 50t - 60 = 0

Using the quadratic formula to find t,

t = \frac{-(-50) +/- \sqrt{(-50)^{2} - 4 X 4.9 X -60} }{2 X 4.9} \\t = \frac{50 +/- \sqrt{2500 + 1176} }{9.8} \\t = \frac{50 +/- \sqrt{3676} }{9.8} \\t = \frac{50 +/- 60.63 }{9.8} \\t = \frac{50 + 60.63 }{9.8} or t = \frac{50 - 60.63 }{9.8} \\t = \frac{110.63 }{9.8} or t = \frac{-10.63 }{9.8} \\t = 11.29 sor -1.085

Since t cannot be negative, t = 11.29 s

b. We first need to find the impact vertical velocity component. Using

v = u - gt where u = initial vertical velocity component = v₀sinθ  and t = 11.29 s and g = 9.8 m/s². So,

v = v₀sinθ - gt

= 88.3 m/s × sin34.5° - 9.8 m/s² × 11.29 s

= 50.01 m/s - 110.64 m/s

= -60.63 m/s

Since the horizontal velocity is constant u' = v₀cosθ = 88.3 m/s × cos34.5° = 72.77 m/s.

The impact velocity is thus the resultant of the horizontal velocity and final impact velocity. So, V = √(v² + u'²)

= √((-60.63 m/s)² + (72.77 m/s)²)

= √((3676 m²/s² + 5295.48 m²/s²)

= √(8971.48 m²/s²

= 94.72 m/s

The angle θ = tan⁻¹(v/u') = tan⁻¹(-60.63 m/s ÷ 72.77 m/s) = tan⁻¹(-0.8332) = -39.8°

So the impact velocity is 94.72 m/s at -39.8°

c. The horizontal distance out from the base of the cliff that the ball strikes the water is the range, R = u't = 72.77 m/s × 11.29 s = 821.57 m​

Points a and b lie in a region where the y-component of the electric field is Ey=α+β/y2. The constants in this expression have t
Drupady [299]

Answer:

V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

Explanation:

The electric potential is defined by

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E .ds

In this case the electric field is in the direction and the points (ds) are also in the direction and therefore the angle is zero and the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E ds

We substitute

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ (α + β/ y²) dy

We integrate

          V_{b} - V_{a} = - α y + β / y

We evaluate between the lower limit A  2 cm = 0.02 m and the upper limit B 3 cm = 0.03 m

           V_{b} - V_{a} = - α (0.03 - 0.02) + β (1 / 0.03 - 1 / 0.02)

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 600 0.01 + 5 (-16.67) = -6 - 83.33

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 89.3 V

As they ask us the reverse case

             V_{b} - V_{a} = - V_{b} - V_{a}

             V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

A head-on, elastic collision between two particles with equal initial speed v leaves the more massive particle (mass m1) at rest
ZanzabumX [31]
<span>1/3 The key thing to remember about an elastic collision is that it preserves both momentum and kinetic energy. For this problem I will assume the more massive particle has a mass of 1 and that the initial velocities are 1 and -1. The ratio of the masses will be represented by the less massive particle and will have the value "r" The equation for kinetic energy is E = 1/2MV^2. So the energy for the system prior to collision is 0.5r(-1)^2 + 0.5(1)^2 = 0.5r + 0.5 The energy after the collision is 0.5rv^2 Setting the two equations equal to each other 0.5r + 0.5 = 0.5rv^2 r + 1 = rv^2 (r + 1)/r = v^2 sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v The momentum prior to collision is -1r + 1 Momentum after collision is rv Setting the equations equal to each other rv = -1r + 1 rv +1r = 1 r(v+1) = 1 Now we have 2 equations with 2 unknowns. sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v r(v+1) = 1 Substitute the value v in the 2nd equation with sqrt((r+1)/r) and solve for r. r(sqrt((r + 1)/r)+1) = 1 r*sqrt((r + 1)/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) = 1 - r r^2*(1+1/r) = 1 - 2r + r^2 r^2 + r = 1 - 2r + r^2 r = 1 - 2r 3r = 1 r = 1/3 So the less massive particle is 1/3 the mass of the more massive particle.</span>
