Answer:

a) p_i=1.568\hat{i}+0.752 \hat{j}

b) v_{fx}=1.668\ m.s^{-1}

c) v_{fy}=0.7999\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given masses:

m_1=0.49\ kg

m_2=0.47\ kg

Velocity of mass 1, v_1=3.2 \hat{i}\ m.s^{-1}

Velocity of mass 2, v_2=1.6 \hat{j}\ m.s^{-1}

a)

Initial momentum:

p_i=m_1.v_1+m_2.v_2

p_i=0.49\times 3.2 \hat{i}+0.47\times 1.6 \hat{j}

p_i=1.568\hat{i}+0.752 \hat{j}

b)

magnitude of initial momentum:

p_i=\sqrt{1.568^2+0.752 ^2}

p_i=1.739\ kg.m.s^{-1}

From the conservation of momentum:

p_f=p_i

m_f.v_f=1.739

v_f=\frac{1.739}{0.49+0.47}

v_f=1.85\ m.s^{-1} is the magnitude of final velocity.

Direction of final velocity will be in the direction of momentum:

tan\theta=\frac{0.752 }{1.568}

\theta=25.62^{\circ}

\therefore v_{fx}=1.85\ cos25.62^{\circ}

v_{fx}=1.668\ m.s^{-1}

c)

Vertical component of final velocity:

v_{fy}=1.85\ sin 25.62^{\circ}

v_{fy}=0.7999\ m.s^{-1}

Water drips from the nozzle of a shower onto the floor 190 cm below. The drops fall at regular (equal) intervals of time, the fi
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Second drop: 1.04 m

First drop: 1.66 m

Explanation:

Assuming the droplets are not affected by aerodynamic drag.

They are in free fall, affected only by gravity.

I set a frame of reference with the origin at the nozzle and the positive X axis pointing down.

We can use the equation for position under constant acceleration.

X(t) = x0 + v0 * t + 1/2 * a *t^2

x0 = 0

a = 9.81 m/s^2

v0 = 0

Then:

X(t) = 4.9 * t^2

The drop will hit the floor when X(t) = 1.9

1.9 = 4.9 * t^2

t^2 = 1.9 / 4.9

t = \sqrt{0.388} = 0.62 s

That is the moment when the 4th drop begins falling.

Assuming they fall at constant interval,

Δt = 0.62 / 3 = 0.2 s (approximately)

The second drop will be at:

X2(0.62) = 4.9 * (0.62 - 1*0.2)^2 = 0.86 m

And the third at:

X3(0.62) = 4.9 * (0.62 - 2*0.2)^2 = 0.24 m

The positions are:

1.9 - 0.86 = 1.04 m

1.9 - 0.24 = 1.66 m

above the floor

A rocket has landed on Planet X, which has half the radius of Earth. An astronaut onboard the rocket weighs twice as much on Pla
Burka [1]

Explanation:

Let acceleration due to Gravity for a planet is given by:

g_X=GM/R^2

Here,g_X = 2g

Escape velocity is given by:

v =\sqrt{ \frac{2GM} {R}} = \sqrt{2aR}

Here, R=R_earth/2

and g_X = 2g

Therefore,v=\sqrt(2(2g)(R/2))=v_0

A man does 4,475 J of work in the process of pushing his 2.50 103 kg truck from rest to a speed of v, over a distance of 26.0 m.
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

a) 1.89 m/s  b) 172.1 N

Explanation:

a)

  • Applying the work-energy theorem, if we can neglect the friction between truck and road, the total change in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the external forces.
  • This work, is just 4,475 J.
  • So we can write the following equation:

        \Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m*v^{2} = 4,475 J

  • where m= mass of the truck = 2.5*10³ kg.
  • So, we can find the speed v, as follows:

        v =\sqrt{\frac{2*W}{m}} =\sqrt{\frac{2*4,475J}{2.5e3kg} }  = 1.89 m/s

b)

  • The work done by the man, is just the horizontal force applied, times the displacement produced by the force horizontally:

        W = F*d

  • We can solve for F, as follows:

        F = \frac{W}{d} = \frac{4,475 J}{26.0m} =  172.1 N

How do you calculate the power in a circuit or device if given the current and the resistance?
Drupady [299]

Answer:

you use the Ohms law so to find the voltage you would need to multiply the current by the resistance which gives you the power.

V- voltage

I- current

R- resistance

V= I×R
