Answer:

(a) max. height = 3.641 m

(b) flight time = 1.723 s

(c) horizontal range = 31.235 m

(d) impact velocity = 20 m/s

Above values have been given to third decimal.  Adjust significant figures to suit accuracy required.

Explanation:

This problem requires the use of kinematics equations

v1^2-v0^2=2aS .............(1)

v1.t + at^2/2 = S ............(2)

where

v0=initial velocity

v1=final velocity

a=acceleration

S=distance travelled

SI units and degrees will be used throughout

Let

theta = angle of elevation = 25 degrees above horizontal

v=initial velocity at 25 degrees elevation in m/s

a = g = -9.81 = acceleration due to gravity (downwards)

(a) Maximum height

Consider vertical direction,

v0 = v sin(theta) = 8.452 m/s

To find maximum height, we find the distance travelled when vertical velocity = 0, i.e. v1=0,

solve for S in equation (1)

v1^2 - v0^2 = 2aS

S = (v1^2-v0^2)/2g = (0-8.452^2)/(2*(-9.81)) = 3.641 m/s

(b) total flight time

We solve for the time t when the vertical height of the object is AGAIN = 0.

Using equation (2) for vertical direction,

v0*t + at^2/2 = S    substitute values

8.452*t + (-9.81)t^2 = 3.641

Solve for t in the above quadratic equation to get t=0, or t=1.723 s.

So time for the flight = 1.723 s

(c) Horiontal range

We know the horizontal velocity is constant (neglect air resistance) at

vh = v*cos(theta) = 25*cos(25) = 18.126 m/s

Time of flight = 1.723 s

Horizontal range = 18.126 m/s * 1.723 s = 31.235 m

(d) Magnitude of object on hitting ground, Vfinal

By symmetry of the trajectory, Vfinal = v = 20, or

Vfinal = sqrt(v0^2+vh^2) = sqrt(8.452^2+18.126^2) = 20 m/s

The circumference of a circle is 12π meters. find the​ circle diameter.
Veseljchak [2.6K]
The circumference of a circle is 2*pi*r=C so plugging in numbers we have
12pi= 2*pi*r so solving for r gives 12pi/2pi=r which gives 6=r so the radius of the circle is 6 meters since diameter is just 2*r this gives 2*r =12 meters so
Diameter = 12meters

An object has a position given by r = [2.0 m + (5.00 m/s)t] i^ + [3.0m−(2.00 m/s2)t2] j^, where all quantities are in SI units.
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Acceleration of the object is 4\ m/s^2.

Explanation:

It is given that, the position of the object is given by :

r=[2\ m+(5\ m/s)t]i+[3\ m-(2\ m/s^2)t^2]j

Velocity of the object, v=\dfrac{dr}{dt}

Acceleration of the object is given by :

a=\dfrac{d^2r}{dt^2}

a=\dfrac{d^2}{dt^2}([2\ m+(5\ m/s)t]i+[3\ m-(2\ m/s^2)t^2]j)

Using the property of differentiation, we get :

a=\dfrac{d^2r}{dt^2}=-4\ m/s^2

So, the magnitude of the acceleration of the object at time t = 2.00 s is 4\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

See attached document

Explanation:

Entire process for deriving the asked expression dV across the bridge as function of dP is illustrated in the attachment below.

The document gives a step-by step process for arriving at the expression. However, manipulation of algebraic equations is skipped for the conciseness of the document.

It also gives the expression for the case when all resistors have different nominal values.

The nonreflective coating on a camera lens with an index of refraction of 1.21 is designed to minimize the reflection of 570-nm
lord [1]

Answer: 117.8 nm

Explanation:

Given,

Nonreflective coating refractive index : n = 1.21

Index of refraction: n_0 = 1.52

Wave length of light = λ = 570 nm = 570\times10^{-9}\ m

\text{ Thickness}=\dfrac{\lambda}{4n}

=\dfrac{570\times10^{-9}\ m}{4\times1.21}\\\\\approx\dfrac{117.8\times 10^{-9}\ m}{1}\\\\=117.8\text{ nm}

Hence, the minimum thickness of the coating that will accomplish= 117.8 nm
