During a race the dirt bike was observed to leap up off the small hill at A at an angle of 60^o with the horizontal. If the poin

t of landing is 20 ft away, determine the approximate speed at which the bike was traveling just before it left the ground. Neglect the size of the bike for the calculation.

Answer:

Velocity is equal to 27.3 feet per second  and time is equal to 1.4668 seconds

Explanation:

Given

The horizontal distance traveled by  dirt bike before landing = 20 feet

Angle of flight = 60 degree

As we know that Horizontal distance (H) is equal to

= H_0 + V_0 * t\\

Where H_0 is the initial horizontal distance

V_0 is the velocity with which the bike is travelling in horizontal direction

and t is the time in seconds

Substituting the given values, we get -

H = H_0 + v*t\\20 = 0 + v * cos \theta * t\\20 = v * cos 60 * t\\t = \frac{20}{v * cos 60} \\t = \frac{40}{v}

Now distance traveled in vertical direction is equal to

Y = Y_0 + v_0 * t + \frac{1}{2} a * t^2

here acceleration will be equal to acceleration due to gravity which is equal to - 32.2 \frac{ft}{s^2}. It is negative as its is acting in upward direction

Thus,

Y = 0 + v * sin 60 + \frac{1}{2}  * (-32.2) * (\frac{40}{v} )^2\\0 = 0  + 0.866 v + \frac{-25760}{v^2} \\0.866 v = \frac{-25760}{v^2}\\v^3 = \frac{-25760}{0.866} \\v = 27.3

Velocity is equal to 27.3 feet per second  and time is equal to 1.4668 seconds

"If you double the wavelength of a wave on a particular string", what happens to the wave speed v and the frequency f ? (i) v do
nadezda [96]

Answer:

v doubles and f is unchanged

Explanation:

According to the formula v = f¶

Where v is the velocity of the wave

f is the frequency

¶ is the wavelength

Velocity is directly proportional to wavelength. Direct proportionality shows that increase in velocity will cause an increase in the wavelength and decrease in velocity will also cause a decrease in wavelength with the frequency not changing since the velocity and wavelength are both increasing and decreasing at the same rate.

According to the question, if the wavelength is doubled, the velocity (v) will also double while the frequency (f) remains unchanged.

Explain this quote "ambition beats genius 99% of the time. "
klasskru [66]

Answer:

The idea that hard work is the most important aspect of new inventions existed before Edison gave his quote, however.

The idea behind this quote is that it is easy to have a good idea, or a creative insight. However, to follow through with that idea, and turn it into a reality, takes a level of patience and dedication that few people have.

A coin is placed on a vinyl stereo record that is making 33 1/3 revolutions per minute on a turntable. (a) In what direction is
mamaluj [8]

Answer: a) The acceletarion is directed to the center on the turntable. b) 5 cm; ac= 0.59 m/s^2; 10 cm, ac=1.20 m/s^2; 14 cm, ac=1.66 m/s^2

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to consider teh expression of the centripetal accelartion for a circular movement, which is given by:

ac=ω^2*r where ω and r are the angular speed and teh radios of the circular movement.

w=2*π*f

We know that the turntable is set to 33  1/3 rev/m so

the frequency 33.33/60=0.55 Hz

then w=2*π*0.55=3.45 rad/s

Finally the centripetal acceleration at differents radii results equal:

r= 0.05 m  ac=3.45^2*0.05=0.50 m/s^2

r=0.1  ac=3.45^2*0.1=1.20 m/s^2

r=0.14 ac=3.45^2*0.14=1.66 m/s^2
