A 12,500 N alien UFO is hovering about the surface of Earth. At time , its position can be given as () = ((0.24 m/s^3)^3 + 25 m)

i^ ((4.2 m/s))j^+ (−(0.43 m/s^3)^3 + (0.8 m/s^2)^2)k^. What is the net force acting on the UFO at time = 2 s? Express your answer in vector format. What is its magnitude?

a) F=(3675i-4543k)N

b) 5843 N

Explanation:

a)

The position of the UFO at time t is given by the vector:

r(t)=(0.24t^3+25)i+(4.2t)j+(-0.43t^3+0.8t^2)k

Therefore it has 3 components:

r_x=0.24t^3+25\\r_y=4.2t\\r_z=-0.43t^3+0.8t^2

We start by finding the velocity of the UFO, which is given by the derivative of the position:

v_x=r'_x=\frac{d}{dt}(0.24t^3+25)=3\cdot 0.24t^2=0.72t^2\\v_y=r'_y=\frac{d}{dt}(4.2t)=4.2\\v_x=r'_z=\frac{d}{dt}(-0.43t^3+0.8t^2)=-1.29t^2+1.6t

And then, by differentiating again, we find the acceleration:

a_x=v'_x=\frac{d}{dt}(0.72t^2)=1.44t\\a_y=v'_y=\frac{d}{dt}(4.2)=0\\a_z=v'_z=\frac{d}{dt}(-1.29t^2+1.6t)=-2.58t+1.6

The weight of the UFO is W = 12,500 N, so its mass is:

m=\frac{W}{g}=\frac{12500}{9.8}=1276 kg

Therefore, the components of the force on the UFO are given by Newton's second law:

F=ma

So, Substituting t = 2 s, we find:

F_x=ma_x=(1276)(1.44t)=(1276)(1.44)(2)=3675 N\\F_y=ma_y=0\\F_z=ma_z=(1276)(-2.58t+1.6)=(1276)(-2.58(2)+1.6)=-4543 N

So the net force on the UFO at t = 2 s is

F=(3675i-4543k)N

b)

The magnitude of a 3-dimensional vector is given by

|v|=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2+v_z^2}

where

v_x,v_y,v_z are the three components of the vector

In this problem, the three components of the net force are:

F_x=3675 N\\F_y=0\\F_z=-4543 N

Therefore, substituting into the equation, we find the magnitude of the net force:

|F|=\sqrt{3675^2+0^2+(-4543)^2}=5843 N

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Comparison Microscope

Explanation:

The Comparison Microscope allows for comparison between two objects or samples by placing them side by side.

It is primarily used in criminology for ballistics which makes it ideal to find out if bullets, shells, or cartridge cases were fired from a specific weapon.

After you pick up a spare, your bowling ball rolls without slipping back toward the ball rack with a linear speed of 2.85 m/s. T
motikmotik

Answer:

V' = 0.84 m/s

Explanation:

given,

Linear speed of the ball, v = 2.85 m/s

rise of the ball, h = 0.53 m

Linear speed of the ball, v' = ?

rotation kinetic energy of the ball

KE_r = \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2

I of the moment of inertia of the sphere

I = \dfrac{2}{5}MR^2

 v = R ω

using conservation of energy

KE_r = \dfrac{1}{2}( \dfrac{2}{5}MR^2)(\dfrac{V}{R})2

KE_r = \dfrac{1}{5}MV^2

Applying conservation of energy

Initial Linear KE + Initial roational KE = Final Linear KE + Final roational KE + Potential energy

\dfrac{1}{2}MV^2 + \dfrac{1}{5}MV^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}MV'^2 + \dfrac{1}{5}MV'^2 + M g h

0.7 V^2 = 0.7 V'^2 + gh

0.7\times 2.85^2 = 0.7\times V'^2 +9.8\times 0.53

V'² = 0.7025

V' = 0.84 m/s

the linear speed of the ball at the top of ramp is equal to 0.84 m/s
