Answer:

Perpendicular to the surface of the body.

Explanation:

When a surface is submerged in a fluid the resultant pressure force on the body acts perpendicular to the surface of the body. This is because fluids cannot withstand nor exert sideways forces. One could obtain this analytically considering that the origin of this force comes from the movement of the fluid molecules.

During a 400-m race, a runner crosses the 100 m mark with a velocity of 12 m/s. What would be her final position if she maintain
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

Total race distance is 400m

Her initial velocity was 0m/s²

At the 100m mark, after she has travelled 100m, her final velocity was v=12m/s²

Using equation of motion

Let determine her constant acceleration

v²=u²+2as

12²=0²+2×a×100

144=0+200a

144=200a

a=144/200

a=0.72m/s²

Then we want to know her position after another 10second

So total time is 10+12=22seconds

Then, using equation of motion

Let determine his postion

S=ut+½at²

S=0•t+½×0.72×22²

S=0+174.24

S=174.24 m

Her position will be 174.24m

In a "worst-case" design scenario, a 2000 kg elevator with broken cables is falling at 4.00 m/s when it first contacts a cushion
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

A. V =3.65m/s

B. a = 4m/s^2

Explanation:

Determine force of gravity (f) on the elevator.

f = mg

(m = 2000kg, g = 9.8m/s

2000kg × 9.8m/s^2= 19600N

Given,

Force of opposing friction clampforce of gravity = 17000N

the Net force on the elevator

= force of gravity - Force of opposing friction clamp

=19600 - 17000

= 2600 N

Lets determine the kinetic energy of the elevator at the point of contact with the spring

K.E = 1/2 m v^2

(m = 2000kg, v = 4.00m/s)

= (1/2) × 2000kg × (4m/s)^2

= 16000J

kinetic energy and energy gain will be absorbed by the spring across the next 2m

Therefore,

E = K.E + P.E

K.E = 16000J,

P.E of spring = net force absorbed × distance at compression

net force absorbed = 2600N and distance at compression = 2.0m)

P.E = 5200J

E = 16000J + 5200J

E = 21200 J

Note, spring constant wasn't given

Lets determine it's value

Using,

E = (1/2) × k × (x)^2

Where:

E = energy = 21200J, K = ?, X = 2m

21200J=(1/2) × k × (2m)^2

21200J × 2 =(4m)k

K = 42400J/4m

K = 10600 N/m

Therefore,

acceleration at 1m compression = ?

Using F = K × X

(F is force provided by the spring = 10600N/m, K = 10600 N/m and X = 1m)

= 10600N/m × 1m = 10600 N ( upward)

A. The speed of the elevator after it has moved downward 1.00 {\rm m} from the point where it first contacts a spring?

Using.

original Kinetic energy + net force on the elevator = final kinetic energy + spring energy

16000N + 2600N = (1/2)mv^2 + (1/2)k x^2

18600 = (1/2)(2000)(v^2) + (1/2)(10600N)(1^2)

18600 = 1000(v^2) + 5300

18600 - 5300 = 1000(v^2)

13300 = 1000(v^2)

V^2 = 13.300

V =3.65m/s

The acceleration of the elevator is 1.00 {\rm m} below point where it first contacts a spring

Spring constant = net force on the elevator + resultant force

(Spring constant = 10600N, net force on the elevator = 2600N, resultant force = ?)

10600N = 2600N + resultant force

resultant force = 10600N - 2600N

=8000N

Therefore

F = ma

a = f/m

(a = ?, f =8000N and m =2000kg)

= 8000 / 2000

a = 4m/s^2

(It's accelerating upward, since acceleration is positive

A 1.0 kg football is given an initial velocity at ground level of 20.0 m/s [37° above horizontal]. It gets blocked just after re
brilliants [131]
1) Data:

Vo = 20 m/s
α = 37°
Yo = 0
Y = 3m

2) Questions: V at Y = 3m and X at Y = 3 m

3) Calculate components of the initial velocity

Vox = Vo * cos(37°) = 15.97 m/s

Voy = Vo * sin(37°) = 12.04 m/s

4) Formulas

Vx = constant = 15.97 m/s

X = Vx * t

Vy = Voy - g*t

Y = Yo + Voy * t - g (t^2) / 2

5) Calculate t when Y = 3m (first time)

Use g ≈ 9.8 m/s^2

3 = 12.04 * t - 4.9 t^2

=> 4.9 t^2 - 12.04t + 3 = 0

Use the quadratic equation to solve the equation

=> t = 0.28 s and t = 2.18s

First time => t = 0.28 s.

6) Calculate Vy when t = 0.28 s

Vy = 12.04 m/s  - 9.8 * 0.28s = 9.3 m/s

7) Calculate V:

V = √ [ (Vx)^2 + (Vy)^2 ] = √[ (15.97m/s)^2 + (9.30 m/s)^2 ] = 18.48 m/s

tan(β) = Vy/Vx = 9.30 / 15.97 ≈ 0.582 => β ≈ arctan(0.582) ≈ 30°

Answer: V ≈ 18.5 m/s, with angle ≈ 30°

8) Calculate X at t = 0.28s

X = Vx * t = 15.97 m/s * 0.28s = 4,47m ≈ 4,5m

Answer: X ≈ 4,5 m

A long-distance runner is running at a constant speed of 5 m/s.
vivado [14]

Answer:

3.33 minutes (3 minutes and 20 seconds)

Explanation:

Speed of the runner = s = 5 m/s

We need to calculate how will it take for runner to complete 1 km. We have the speed, the distance and we need to find the time. Before performing any calculations, we must convert the values to same units.

Speed is in m/s and distance is in kilometers. So we have to either convert speed to km/s or distance into meters. In this case, converting distance into meters would be a convenient option.

1 kilo meters = 1000 meters

The distance, speed and time are related by the equation:

Distance = Speed x Time

So,

Time = Distance/Speed

Using the values, we get:

t = 1000/5

t = 200 seconds

This means, the runner can complete 1 kilometers in 200 seconds. Since, there are 60 seconds in a minute, we can convert this time to minutes, by dividing it by 60. i.e.

200 \text{ sec} = \frac{200}{60} \text{ min} = 3.33 \text{ min}

Thus, it will take the runner 3.33 minutes (3 minutes and 20 seconds) to travel 1 km.
