A cannonball is fired horizontally at the same time a ball being dropped from the same height How do the times it takes them to

hit the ground compare?
Physics
1 answer:
ipn [44]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The cannonball and the ball will both take the same amount of time before they hit the ground.

Explanation:

For a ball fired horizontally from a given height, there is only a vertical acceleration on it towards the ground. This acceleration is equal to the acceleration due to gravity (g = 9.81 m/s^2). A ball dropped from a height will also only experience the same vertical acceleration downwards which is also equal to g = 9.81 m/s^2.

Therefore both the cannonball and the ball will take the same amount of time to hit the ground if they are released/fired from the same height.

You go rock climbing with a pack that weighs 70 N and you reach a height of 30 m. how much work did you do to lift your pack? If
Vikentia [17]
When you climb, earth exerts gravitational force on pack in downward direction(pointing towards the center of earth).
In order to climb, you need to work against work done by gravity on the pack.
Hence work done by you = work done by gravity on pack 
                                        = Force x displacement = 70 x 30 = 2100 J.
 
So you need to do 2100 joules of work to lift your pack.

Power is the rate of work done.
Therefore power = work done by you/time(in seconds)
                            =     2100/600 =3.5 watts

que 2. Why do we keep frequency constant instead of keeping vibrating length constam second law of vibrating string?​
ella [17]

Answer:

The second law of a vibrating string states that for a transverse vibration in a stretched string, the frequency is directly proportional to the square root of the string's tension, when the vibrating string's mass per unit length and the vibrating length are kept constant

The law can be expressed mathematically as follows;

f = \dfrac{1}{2\cdot l} \cdot \sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m} }

The second law of the vibrating string can be verified directly, however, the third law of the vibrating string states that frequency is inversely proportional to the square root of the mass per unit length cannot be directly verified due to the lack of continuous variation in both the frequency, 'f', and the mass, 'm', simultaneously

Therefore, the law is verified indirectly, by rearranging the above equation as follows;

m = \dfrac{1}{ l^2} \cdot \dfrac{T}{4\cdot f^2} }

From which it can be shown that the following relation holds with the limits of error in the experiment

m₁·l₁² = m₂·l₂² = m₃·l₃² = m₄·l₄² = m₅·l₅²

For a science project, you would like to horizontally suspend an 8.5 by 11 inch sheet of black paper in a vertical beam of light
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

I = 3.9 x 10⁷ W/m²

Explanation:

given,

Sheet of black paper dimension = 8.5 x 11 inch

Area of sheet = 8.5 x 11 = 93.5 inch^2

1 inch =0.0254 m

Area = 0.06032 m²

mass of sheet = 0.80 g

Force = m g =  0.8 x 9.8 x 10⁻³ N

                    =  7.84 x 10⁻³ N

speed of light = c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Using equation

F = \dfrac{IA}{c}

where I is the intensity of light

7.84 \times 10^{-3} = \dfrac{I\times 0.06032}{3 \times 10^8}

2.352 \times 10^{6} = I\times 0.06032

I = \dfrac{2.352 \times 10^{6}}{0.06032}

I = 3.9 x 10⁷ W/m²

Intensity of the light is equal to I = 3.9 x 10⁷ W/m²

Four velcro-lined air-hockey disks collide with each other in a perfectly
Reil [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of the final velocity is approximately 0.526 m/s in approximately the direction of 8.746° East of South

Explanation:

The given collision parameters are;

The kind of collision experienced by the four velcro-lined air-hockey disk = Inelastic collision

The mass of the first disk, m₁ = 50.0 g

The velocity of the first disk, v₁ = 0.80 m/s West = -0.8·i

The mass of the second disk, m₂ = 60.0 g

The velocity of the second disk, v₂ = 2.50 m/s North = 2.5·j

The mass of the third disk, m₃ = 100.0 g

The velocity of the third disk, v₃ = 0.20 m/s East = 0.20·i

The mass of the fourth disk, m₄ = 40.0 g

The velocity of the fourth disk, v₄ = 0.50 m/s South = -0.50·j

Therefore, the total initial momentum of the four velcro-lined air-hockey disk, \Sigma P_{initial} is given as follows;

\Sigma P_{initial} = m₁·v₁ + m₂·v₂ + m₃·v₃ + m₄·v₄ = 50.0×(-0.80·i) + 60.0×(2.50·j) + 100 × (0.20·i) + 40.0 × (-0.50·j)

∴ \Sigma P_{initial} = -40·i + 150·j + 20·i - 20·j = -20·i + 130·j

∴ \Sigma P_{initial} = -20·i + 130·j

By the law of conservation of linear momentum, we have;

\Sigma P_{initial} = \Sigma P _{final} = -20·i + 130·j

Therefore, given that the collision is perfectly inelastic, the disks move as one after the collision and the four masses are added to form one mass, "m", m = m₁ + m₂ + m₃ + m₄ = 50.0 + 60.0 + 100.0 + 40.0 = 250.0

∴ m = 250.0 g

Let, "v" represent the final velocity of the four disks moving as one after the collision

We have;

\Sigma P _{final} = m × v = 250.0 × v = -20·i + 130·j

∴ v = -20·i/250 + 130·j/250 = -0.08·i + 0.52·j

The final velocity of the four disks after collision, v = -0.08·i + 0.52·j

The magnitude of the final velocity, \left | v \right | = √((-0.08)² + (0.52)²) ≈ 0.526

\left | v \right | ≈ 0.526 m/s

The direction of the final velocity, θ = arctan(0.52/(-0.08)) ≈ -81.254°

The direction of the final velocity, θ ≈ -81.254° which is 8.746° East of South
