A large container contains a large amount of water. A hole is drilled on the wall of the container, at a vertical distance h = 0

.54 m below the surface of the water. The water surface drops very slowly and its speed is approximately zero. Keep 2 decimal places in all answers. (a) Find the speed v (in m/s) at which water squirts out of the hole.

Speed can be found through the application of concepts related to potential energy and kinetic energy, for which you have

KE = PE

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh

Where,

m = mass

v = Velocity

g = Gravitational acceleration

h = Height

Re-arrange to find the velocity we have,

v^2 = 2gh

v = \sqrt{2gh}

v = \sqrt{2(9.8)(0.54)}

v = 3.253m/s

Therefore the speed at which water squirts out of the hole is .3253m/s

What is the impulse of a 1700 kg truck traveling at 22.5 m/s?
andrew-mc [135]
Impulse is just the product of mass and speed!

I = 1700 * 22.5  = 38,250 kg m/s

It does not have any special name for its units :(

Is there a frame of reference one can go into that seems to eliminate gravity as Newton described it?
andriy [413]

Answer:

Yes such a frame exists: a free-fall (free-float frame) frame. This frame of reference is subject only to gravity and no forces such as electromagnetic forces or nuclear forces.

The ball is moving at a constant speed of 0.5 m/s for 2.3 seconds how far does it go?
yarga [219]

Distance = (speed) x (time)

Distance = (0.5 m/s) x (2.3 s)

Distance = (0.5 x 2.3) m

Distance = 1.15 meters

A motorcycle is following a car that is traveling at constant speed on a straight highway. Initially, the car and the motorcycle
ra1l [238]

Answer:

a) t = 4.16 s

b) x = 141.51 m

Explanation:

Given

v = 21.5 m/s

x0 = 52.0 m

a = 6.0 m/s²

a) Motorcycle

x = v0*t + (a*t²/2)

x = 21.5t + (6*t²/2)

x = 21.5t + 3t²   <em>(I)</em>

Car

x = x0 + v0*t

x = 52 + 21.5t  <em>(II)</em>

<em />

then we can apply <em>I = II</em>

21.5t + 3t² = 52 + 21.5t

⇒ 3t² = 52

⇒ t = 4.16 s

b) We can use <em>I</em> or <em>II</em>, then

x = 52 + 21.5*(4.16)

⇒ x = 141.51 m
