The answer is distressing
Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed²).
A Physicist in the canoe, or on a raft floating downriver next to the canoe, will say that the canoe's kinetic energy is zero.
A Physicist on the riverbank, watching the canoe drift by at 1 m/s, will say that its kinetic energy is 9 Joules.
They're both correct.
Given:
Uniform distributed load with an intensity of W = 50 kN / m on an overhang beam.
We need to determine the maximum shear stress developed in the beam:
τ = F/A
Assuming the area of the beam is 100 m^2 with a length of 10 m.
τ = F/A
τ = W/l
τ = 50kN/m / 10 m
τ = 5kN/m^2
τ = 5000 N/ m^2<span />
Answer:
1. 0.45 s.
2. 4.41 m/s
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Height (h) = 1 m
Time (t) =?
Velocity (v) =?
1. Determination of the time taken for the pencil to hit the floor.
Height (h) = 1 m
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) =?
h = ½gt²
1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²
1 = 4.9 × t²
Divide both side by 4.8
t² = 1/4.9
Take the square root of both side
t = √(1/4.9)
t = 0.45 s.
Thus, it will take 0.45 s for the pencil to hit the floor.
2. Determination of the velocity with which the pencil hit the floor.
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) = 0.45 s.
Final velocity (v) =?
v = u + gt
v = 0 + (9.8 × 0.45)
v = 0 + 4.41
v = 4.41 m/s
Thus, the pencil hit the floor with a velocity of 4.41 m/s
