A cart is propelled over an xy plane with acceleration compo- nents ax 4.0 m/s2 and ay 2.0 m/s2. Its initial velocity has com- p

onents v0x 8.0 m/s and v0y 12 m/s. In unit-vector notation, what is the velocity of the cart when it reaches its greatest y coordinate?

Answer:

(-16.0\ \hat i+0\ \hat j)\ \rm m/s.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • x-component of acceleration of the cart, \rm a_x = 4.0\ m/s^2.
  • y-component of acceleration of the cart, \rm a_y = 2.0\ m/s^2.
  • x-component of initial velocity of the cart, \rm v_{0x} = 8.0\ m/s.
  • y-component of initial velocity of the cart, \rm v_{0y} = 12\ m/s.

Let the x and y components of the final velocity of the cart when the cart reaches its greatest y coordinate be \rm v_x\ and \ v_y respectively.

When the cart reaches its greatest y-coordinate then the y component of its final velocity should be zero, \rm v_y =0.\\

Let the cart reaches its greatest y-coordinate at time t, then using the following equation:

\rm v_y = v_{0y}+a_yt\\0=12+2\times t\\\Righttarrow t=\dfrac{-12}{2}=-6\ s.

At this time, the x component of the velocity of the particle is given by

\rm v_x = v_{0x}+a_xt=8.0+4.0\times (-6)=8.0-24.0=-16.0\ m/s.

Thus, the velocity of the cart when it reaches its greatest y coordinate, in unit-vector notation, is given by

\vec v = v_x\hat i+v_y\hat j=(-16.0\ \hat i+0\ \hat j)\ \rm m/s.

A force of 15 newtons is used to push a box along the floor a distance of 3 meters. How much work was done?
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 45 J</h3>

Explanation:

The work done by an object can be found by using the formula

<h3>workdone = force × distance</h3>

From the question

distance = 3 meters

force = 15 newtons

We have

workdone = 15 × 3

We have the final answer as

<h3>45 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

In a compression wave, particles in the medium move
MissTica
<span>The particles through which compressional waves travel move in the same direction as the wave. This may be observed by fixing one end of a large spring and then compressing and extending the other end. The wave travels from one end to the other and the spring's parts move in the same direction.</span>

Bicyclists in the Tour de France do enormous amounts of work during a race. For example, the average power per kilogram generate
tigry1 [53]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Average power per unit mass generated by Lance, \dfrac{P}{m}=6.5\ W/kg

P=6.5\times 75=487.5\ W

(a) Distance to cover race, d = 160\ km =160\times 10^3\ m

Average speed of the person, v = 11 m/s

If t is the time taken to cover the race.

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{160\times 10^3\ m}{11\ m/s}

t = 14545.46 s

Let W is the work done. The relation between the work done and the power is given by :

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

W=P\times t

W=487.5\times 14545.46

W = 7090911.75 J

(b) Since, 1\ J=2.389\times 10^{-4}\ calories

So, in 7090911.75 J, W=7090911.75 \times 2.389\times 10^{-4}

W = 1694.01 J

Hence, this is the required solution.

Strontium 3890Sr has a half-life of 28.5 yr. It is chemically similar to calcium, enters the body through the food chain, and co
patriot [66]

Answer:

Thus the time taken is calculated as 387.69 years

Solution:

As per the question:

Half life of ^{3890}Sr\, t_{\frac{1}{2}} = 28.5 yrs

Now,

To calculate the time, t in which the 99.99% of the release in the reactor:

By using the formula:

\frac{N}{N_{o}} = (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}

where

N = No. of nuclei left after time t

N_{o} = No. of nuclei initially started with

\frac{N}{N_{o}} = 1\times 10^{- 4}

(Since, 100% - 99.99% = 0.01%)

Thus

1\times 10^{- 4} = (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{28.5}}}

Taking log on both the sides:

- 4 = \frac{t}{28.5}log\frac{1}{2}

t = \frac{-4\times 28.5}{log\frac{1}{2}}

t = 387.69 yrs
