A jet of water squirts out horizontally from a

Physics
1 answer:
Triss [41]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

9.54 cm

Explanation:

The water is in free fall after it leaves the tank.  The time it takes to land is:

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

1.23 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 0.501 s

Therefore, the horizontal velocity is:

v = 0.685 m / 0.501 s

v = 1.37 m/s

Using Bernoulli equation, where point 1 is the surface of the water and point 2 is the exit of the tank:

P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρgh₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρgh₂

Since P₁ = P₂, and v₁ = 0:

ρgh₁ = ½ ρ v₂² + ρgh₂

gh₁ = ½ v₂² + gh₂

gh = ½ v₂²

h = v₂²/(2g)

Plugging in:

h = (1.37 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)

h = 0.0954 m

h = 9.54 cm

A roller coaster starts from rest at point A. What is its speed at point C if the track is frictionless.
OleMash [197]
At A, coaster is only associated with potential energy.
At B, coaster is associated with kinetic as well as potential energy.
Since the track is frictionless, no energy will be lost when coaster reaches from point A to point B. Therefore, according to conservation of energy, total energy at A should be equal to total energy at B.
Total energy at A = mgh = mg(12) 
Total energy at B = mgh+ mv²/2 = mg(2) + mv²/2
∴12mg = 2mg + mv²/2
∴(12g-2g)×2 = v²
∴v² = 20g
∴v = 14m/s.

Again conserving energy at points B and C.
Total energy at B = 2mg + m(14)²/2 
Total energy at C = 4mg + mv²/2
∴2mg + m(14²)/2 = 4mg + mv²/2
Solving this you get,
v = 12.52 m/s.
Therefore, speed of roller coaster at point C is 12.52 m/s.

8. An unpowered flywheel is slowed by a constant frictional torque. At time t = 0 it has an angular velocity of 200 rad/s. Ten s
allsm [11]

Answer:

a) \omega = 50\,\frac{rad}{s}, b) \omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}

Explanation:

The magnitude of torque is a form of moment, that is, a product of force and lever arm (distance), and force is the product of mass and acceleration for rotating systems with constant mass. That is:

\tau = F \cdot r

\tau = m\cdot a \cdot r

\tau = m \cdot \alpha \cdot r^{2}

Where \alpha is the angular acceleration, which is constant as torque is constant. Angular deceleration experimented by the unpowered flywheel is:

\alpha = \frac{170\,\frac{rad}{s} - 200\,\frac{rad}{s} }{10\,s}

\alpha = -3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}

Now, angular velocities of the unpowered flywheel at 50 seconds and 100 seconds are, respectively:

a) t = 50 s.

\omega = 200\,\frac{rad}{s} - \left(3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (50\,s)

\omega = 50\,\frac{rad}{s}

b) t = 100 s.

Given that friction is of reactive nature. Frictional torque works on the unpowered flywheel until angular velocity is reduced to zero, whose instant is:

t = \frac{0\,\frac{rad}{s}-200\,\frac{rad}{s} }{\left(-3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right)}

t = 66.667\,s

Since t > 66.667\,s, then the angular velocity is equal to zero. Therefore:

\omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}
