You lay a rectangular board on the horizontal floor and then tilt the board about one edge until it slopes at angle 0 with the h

orizontal. Choose your origin at one of the two comers that touch the floor, the x axis pointing along the bottom edge of the board, the y axis pointing up the slope, and the z axis normal to the board. You now kick a frictionless puck that is resting at O so that it slides across the board with initial velocity (v_ox, v_oy,0). Write down Newton's second law using the given coordinates and then find how long the puck takes to return to the floor level and how far it is from O when it does so.

Answer:

\frac {2v_{ox}v_{oy}}{gsin\theta}

Explanation:

The rectangular board is represented as shown in the attached image

Here, m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and \theta is the angle of inclination

The vertical component of the force on particle is represented as

mgcos(90-\theta)-mgsin\theta

Acceleration along y-axis is given by

a=-gsin\theta

Distance moved by puck in x-direction is

x=v_{oy}t +0.5(at^{2})= v_{oy}t +0.5(-gsin\theta) t^{2}= v_{oy}t -0.5-gsin\theta t^{2}

When the puck returns to the floor level, total distance covered is zero hence

0= v_{oy}t -0.5-gsin\theta t^{2} and making t the subject

v_{oy}t =0.5-gsin\theta t^{2}

t=\frac {2v_{oy}}{gsin\theta}

To find the distance of the puck from origin

x=v_{ox}\frac {2v_{oy}}{gsin\theta}=\frac {2v_{ox}v_{oy}}{gsin\theta}

Distance from origin is \frac {2v_{ox}v_{oy}}{gsin\theta}

How do Swati and Banks adjust their body position during a skydiving jump so they can fall at the same rate?
vlada-n [284]

when skydiving, its not just freely falling under Earth's gravity. Additional force called drag acts against the gravity which slows down the rate of fall. Drag is caused by the air molecules which push against the body as it falls through them. This is actually a significant amount of force which slows down the rate of fall of the body. Drag depends on the contact surface area and weight. More the surface area in contact, more would be the drag. The sitting position of the skydiver would experience less drag than the chest down position because of the less contact surface area of the body with the air molecules while in the former case. No two persons have identical body shape and weight. Hence, the rate of fall can be made nearly equal but not exactly equal. This is would be possible when they are having same body position.

If you increase the frequency of a sound wave four times what will happen to its speed
Anika [276]

Answer: The correct answer is "the speed of the wave becomes four times".

Explanation:

The relation between the speed, frequency and the wavelength is as follows:

v=f\lambda

Here, v is the speed of the wave, f is the frequency and \lambda is the wavelength.

The speed of the sound wave is directly proportional to the frequency.

In the given problem, if the speed of the sound wave is increased four times then the speed of the sound becomes four times.

Therefore, the speed of the sound wave becomes four times.

When the pressure on a gas increases,what does the volume do?
kupik [55]

Answer:

As pressure goes up, volume goes down.

Explanation:

Pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional.  This means that as pressure goes up, volume goes down.  And as volume goes up, pressure goes down.

Cheers.
