The rock is thrown from a height of 2.00 m above the ground with a speed of 30.0 m/s and experiences no appreciable air resistance. If the rock strikes the window on its upward trajectory, from what horizontal distance from the window was it released?A. 29.8 mB. 27.3 mC. 48.7 mD. 71.6 mE. 53.2 m

Answer:

B) 27.3 m

Explanation:

The rock describes a parabolic path.

The parabolic movement results from the composition of a uniform rectilinear motion (horizontal ) and a uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion of upward or downward motion (vertical ).

The equation of uniform rectilinear motion (horizontal ) for the x axis is :

x =  vx*t   Equation (1)

Where:  

x: horizontal position in meters (m)

t : time (s)

vx: horizontal velocity  in m/s  

The equations of uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion of upward (vertical ) for the y axis  are:

(vfy)² = (v₀y)² - 2g(y- y₀)    Equation (2)

vfy = v₀y -gt    Equation (3)

Where:  

y: vertical position in meters (m)  

y₀ : initial vertical position in meters (m)  

t : time in seconds (s)

v₀y: initial  vertical velocity  in m/s  

vfy: final  vertical velocity  in m/s  

g: acceleration due to gravity in m/s²

Data

v₀ = 30 m/s , at an angle  α=40.0° above the horizontal

v₀x = vx = 30*cos40° = 22.98 m/s

v₀y = 30*sin40° = 19.28 m/s

y₀ = 2m

y =  18.0 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

Calculation of the time (t) it takes for the rock to reach at  18 m above the ground

We replace data in the equation (2)

(vfy)² = (v₀y)² - 2g(y- y₀)    

(vfy)² = (19.28)² - 2(9.8)(18- 2)

(vfy)² = 371.86 - 313.6

(vfy)² = 58.26

v_{f} = \sqrt{58.26}

vfy = 7.63 m/s

We replace vfy = 7.63 m/s in the equation (2)

vfy = v₀y - gt

7.63 = 19.28 - (9.8)(t)

(9.8)(t) = 11.65

t = 11.65 / (9.8)

t = 1.19 s

Horizontal distance from where the rock was thrown to the window

We replace t = 1.19 s , in the equation (1)

x =  vx*t  

x = (22.98)* ( 1.19 )

x = 27.3 m

g A ball thrown straight up into the air is found to be moving at 7.94 m/s after falling 2.72 m below its release point. Find th
kati45 [8]

The ball has height <em>y</em> and velocity <em>v</em> at time <em>t</em> according to

<em>y</em> = <em>v</em>₀ <em>t</em> - 1/2 <em>g</em> <em>t</em> ²

and

<em>v</em> = <em>v</em>₀ - <em>g t</em>

where <em>v</em>₀ is its initial speed and <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

The ball is falling with a velocity of 7.94 m/s when it's 2.72 m below the release point, which at time <em>t </em>such that

-2.72 m = <em>v</em>₀ <em>t</em> - 1/2 <em>g</em> <em>t</em> ²

-7.94 m/s = <em>v</em>₀ - <em>g t</em>

Solve for <em>t</em> in the second equation:

<em>t </em>= (<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s)/<em>g</em>

Substitute this into the first equation and solve for <em>v</em>₀ :

-2.72 m = <em>v</em>₀ (<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s) /<em>g</em> - 1/2 <em>g</em> ((<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s)/<em>g</em>)²

-2.72 m = <em>v</em>₀²/<em>g</em> + (7.94 m/s) <em>v</em>₀/<em>g</em> - 1/2 (<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s)²/<em>g</em>

2 (-2.72 m) <em>g</em> = 2<em>v</em>₀² + 2 (7.94 m/s) <em>v</em>₀ - (<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s)²

2 (-2.72 m) (9.80 m/s²) = 2<em>v</em>₀² + (15.9 m/s) <em>v</em>₀ - (<em>v</em>₀² + (15.9 m/s) <em>v</em>₀ + 63.0 m²/s²)

-53.3 m²/s² = <em>v</em>₀² - 63.0 m²/s²

<em>v</em>₀² = 9.73 m²/s²

<em>v</em>₀ = 3.12 m/s

A toroid having a square cross section, 5.49 cm on a side, and an inner radius of 18.1 cm has 450 turns and carries a current of
joja [24]

Answer:

(a) 4.27 x 10^-4 Telsa

(b) 3.28 x 10^-4 Telsa

Explanation:

side of square, a = 5.49 cm

inner radius, r = 18.1 cm = 0.181 m

number of turns,N = 450

current, i = 0.859 A

(a)

The magnetic field due to a solenoid due to inner radius is

B = \frac{\mu_{0}Ni}{2\pi r_{inner}}

B = \frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 450\times 0.859}{2\pi \times 0.181}

B = 4.27 x 10^-4 Telsa

(b)

The outer radius is R = 18.1 + 5.49 = 23.59 cm = 0.236 m

The magnetic field due to the outer radius is

B = \frac{\mu_{0}Ni}{2\pi r_{outer}}

B = \frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 450\times 0.859}{2\pi \times 0.236}

B = 3.28 x 10^-4 Tesla

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

\frac{F}{W} = 9.37 \times 10^{-4}

Explanation:

Radius of the pollen is given as

r = 12.0 \mu m

Volume of the pollen is given as

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi (12\mu m)^3

V = 7.24 \times 10^{-15} m^3

mass of the pollen is given as

m = \rho V

m = 7.24 \times 10^{-12}

so weight of the pollen is given as

W = mg

W = (7.24 \times 10^{-12})(9.81)

W = 7.1 \times 10^{-11}

Now electric force on the pollen is given

F = qE

F = (-0.700\times 10^{-15})(95)

F = 6.65 \times 10^{-14} N

now ratio of electric force and weight is given as

\frac{F}{W} = \frac{6.65 \times 10^{-14}}{7.1 \times 10^{-11}}

\frac{F}{W} = 9.37 \times 10^{-4}
