You throw a stone upward from the top of a building at an angle of 25Â° to the horizontal and with an initial speed of 15 m/s. I

f the stone is in flight for 3.0 s, how tall is the building? How far from the base of the building does the stone.

Answer:

11.025 m

87.75 m

Explanation:

Time of flight(T) of a projectile = 2U(sin∅)/g

Where U = initial Velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity, ∅= angle of projection.

Make ∅ the subject of the the equation,

∅ = sin⁻¹[(T× g)/2U]

Where U = 15m/s, T= 3.0 s, g = 9.8 m/s²

∅ = sin⁻¹[(3 × 9.8)/(2×15)]

∅ = sin⁻¹(29.4/30)

∅= sin⁻¹(0.98) = 78.52°

Using the formula for maximum height of a projectile

H = U²sin²∅/2g

H = 15²(sin²78.52)/2 × 9.8

H = 225(0.98 × 0.98)/19.6

H = 216.09/19.6

H = 11.025 m

Range (R) = U²sin2∅/g

R = 15²sin(2×79.52)/9.8

R = 225(0.39)

R =87.75 m

∵ the building is = 11.025 m tall and the base of the building is 87.75m away from where the stone landed.

Q14) When you break a bar magnet in half, how many poles does each piece have?

andrew-mc [135]

Each piece of magnet has only two poles, one north and one south. So if you break a bar magnet into two halves, the piece initially consisting the north pole at the edge automatically creates the south pole at the break point and the part consisting south pole creates North pole at the edge. So each piece has 2 poles.

A lowly high diver pushes off horizontally with a speed of 2.00 m/s from the platform edge 10.0 m above the surface of the water

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

(a) 1.6m

(b) 6.86m

(c) 2.86s

Explanation:

This is a horizontal shooting problem, so we will use the following equations.

For horizontal distance x we use:

$x(t)=x_{0}+v_{0}t$

Where $x(t)$ is the horizontal distance at a time $t$ , $x_{0}$ is the initial horizontal position which in this case will be zero: $x_{0}=0$ . And $v_{0}$ is the initial speed: $v_{0}=2m/s$

So to solve (a):

(a) At what horizontal distance from the edge is the diver 0.800 s after pushing off?

we have that the time is: $t=0.8s$ so the horizontal distance is:

$x(0.8)=(2m/s)(0.8s)1.6m$

<u>The answer for (a) is 1.6m</u>

Now, to solve (b) we need the equation for vertical distance:

$y(t)=y_{0}-\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Where $y(t)$ is the vertical distance at a time $t$ , $y_{0}$ is the initial vertical distance: $y_{0}=10m$ And $g$ is the gravitational acceleration: $g=9.81m/s^2$ }

(b) At what vertical distance above the surface of the water is the diver just then?

The time is the same as in the last question: $t=0.8s$

$y(0.8)=10m-\frac{1}{2}(9.81m/s^2)(0.8)^2$

$y(0.8)=10m-\frac{1}{2}(9.81m/s^2)(0.64s^2)$

$y(0.8)=10m-\frac{1}{2}(6.2784m)$

$y(0.8)=10m-(3.1392)$

$y(0.8)=6.86m$

<u>the answer to (b) is 6.86m</u>

(c) At what horizontal distance from the edge does the diver strike the water?

To solve (c) we first need to know how long it took to reach the height of the water, that is, for what time y = 0

Using $y(t)=y_{0}-\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

if $y(t)=0$

$0=10-\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\-10=-\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\20=gt^2\\\frac{20}{g}=t^2\\ \sqrt{\frac{20}{g}}=t$

and since $g=9.81m/s^2$

$t=\sqrt{\frac{20}{9.81} } =\sqrt{2.039}=1.43s$

At $t=1.43s$ the car hits the water, so the horizontal distance at that time is:

$x(t)=x_{0}+v_{0}t$

$x(1.43)=(2m/s)(1.43s)=2.86m$

<u>the answer to (c) is 2.86s</u>

If the ultimate shear strength of steel is taken to be 3.00 109 Pa, what force is required to punch through a steel plate 1.60 c

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Ultimate shear strength $\tau =3\times 10^9\ Pa$

thickness of steel Plate $t=1.60\ cm$

Cross-sectional $A=1.20\times 10^2\ cm^2$

suppose d is the diameter of cross-section

$\frac{\pi }{4}d^2=1.20\times 10^2$

$d=12.359\ cm$

Shear area of circular cross-section

$A_s=\pi dt$

$A_s=\pi \times 12.359\times 1.6$

$A_s=62.13\ cm^2$

Shear Force $F_s=A_s\times \tau$

$F_s=62.13\times 10^2\times 3000$

$F_s=18.639\ MN$

IgorC [24]

Answer:

373 K

Explanation:

To convert from °C to kelvin, you add the value to 273

Therefore,

100°C = (100+273)K

= 373K
