Answer:

a) 16.86 m/s.

b) 15.40 m/s

c) 3.175 m/s  

Explanation:

let pi be the initial momentum of the system, pf be the final momentum of the system, m1 be the mass of the bullet and V1 be the intial velocity of the bullet, m2 be the mass of the block and V2 be the intial velocity of the block

a)  from the conservation of linear momentum:

                                          pi = pf

              m1×(V1)i + m2×(V2)i = Vf×(m1 + m2)

(0.0220)×(400) + (0.500)×(0) = Vf(0.0220 + 0.500)

                                         8.8 = 0.522×Vf

                                          Vf = 16.86 m/s

Therefore, the bullet-embedded block system will be moving with a speed of 16.86 m/s.

b)  let Vf be the final velocity of the bullet-embedded block system, Wf be the work done by friction on the system, Vi be the initial velocity that the bullet-embedded block system initially moves with.

the total work done on the system is given by:

                                Wtot = Δk = kf - ki

                                    Wf = 1/2×m×(Vi)^2 - 1/2×m×(Vf)^2

                    f×ΔxΔcos(Ф) = 1/2×m×(Vi)^2 - 1/2×m×(Vf)^2

                 m×Δx×g×μ×(-1) =  1/2×m×(Vi)^2 - 1/2×m×(Vf)^2

                        m×g×Δx×μ =  1/2(Vi)^2 - 1/2(Vf)^2

1/2(0.0220 + 0.500)(Vf)^2 = 1/2(0.0220 + 0.500)(16.86)^2 - (0.0220 +           0.500)×(9.8)×(8)×(0.30)

                     (0.261)(Vf)^2 = 86.469

                                (Vf)^2 = 237.2196

                                       Vf = 15.40 m/s

Therefore,   bullet-embedded block system will have a speed of 15.40 m/s after sliding of the friction surface.

c) let Vf be the speed of the bullet-embedded before hitting the block, Vi be the initial velocity of the block and V be the velocity of the bullet-embedded block and block system.

                              M×Vf + m×Vi = (m + M)×V  

 (0.0200 + 0.50)×(15.40) + (2)×(0) = (0.022 + 0.50 + 2)×V

                                             8.008 = 2.522×V

                                                    V = 3.175 m/s  

  Therefore, the bullet-embedded block and block system will be moving at a speed of 3.175 m/s.

(a) what is the acceleration of two falling sky divers (mass 132 kg including parachute) when the upward force of air resistance
Komok [63]

As per the question the mass of two falling sky drivers is 132 kg.

First we have to calculate their acceleration.

Whenever a body falls freely under gravity,its acceleration is acceleration due to gravity i.e g whose value is 9.8 m/s^2.

The earth pulls the object with a force equal to the weight of the body.

Hence the force gravity  F=W= mg   [ here m is mass of the body]

Here m =132 kg.

Hence force of gravity F= mg

                                        =132 kg ×9.8 m/s^2

                                        =1293.6 kg m/s^2

                                         =1293.6 N      [ here N[newton] is the unit of force.]

As per the question the air resistance is one fourth of weight of the bodies.

Hence air resistance F' =1/4 mg

                                       =\frac{1}{4} *1293.6N

                                        =323.4 N

Here F acts in vertically downward direction while F' acts in vertically upward direction.

Hence the net force acting on the particle is F-F'.

                                                 F_{net} =1293.6N -323.4N

                                                         =970.2 N

From Newton's second law of motion we know that net force is the product of mass and acceleration i.e  

                                   F_{net} =ma  [Here a is the acceleration]

                                             a =\frac{F_{net} }{m}

                                                  = \frac{970.2}{132} m/s^2

                                                  =7.35 m/s^2

In the second question it has been told that they descend with uniform speed.hence acceleration of the two bodies will be zero.

 we know that F= ma

                           =m×0

                            =0 N

Hence they will not get any force when they will descend with a uniform speed.

A man starts walking north at 2 ft/s from a point p. five minutes later a woman starts walking south at 4 ft/s from a point 500
icang [17]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

After 5 minutes (300 seconds):
The man travels north by (2 ft/s)*(300 s) = 600 ft
The woman, located at q, 500 east of p, begins walking south at 4 ft/s.
The distance separating them is
d₁ = √(600² + 500²) = 781.025 ft

After 20 minutes:
The man has traveled for 20 minutes (1200 s).
The woman has traveled for 15 minutes (900 s).
The man has moved (2 ft/s)*(1200 s) = 2400 ft north of p.
The woman has moved (4 ft/s)*(900 s) = 3600 ft south of q.
The distance separating them is
d₂ = √(6000² + 500²) = 6020.8 ft

The separation from d₁ to d₂ occurs in 15 minutes (900s).
Therefore the rate of separation is
Rate = (d₂ - d₁ ft)/(900 s) = (6020.8 - 781.025)/900 = 5.822 ft/s
or
Rate = (5.822 ft/s)*(60 s/min) = 349.32 ft/min

Answer: 349.32 ft/min (or 5.82 ft/s)

An object rotates about a fixed axis, and the angular position of a reference line on the object is given by θ = 0.220e3t, where
OLga [1]

Answer:a_{t}=3.96

a_{c}=0.8712

Explanation:

Given

\theta =0.220e^{3t}

r=2cm

Now angular velocity is given by \omega =\frac{\mathrm{d}\theta}{\mathrm{d}t}

\omega =0.66e^{3t}

Now linear velocity(v) is given =\omega r

v=1.32e^{3t}

Now tangential component of acceleration is given by

a_{t}=\frac{\mathrm{d}\vec{v}}{\mathrm{d}t}=3.96e^{3t}

at t=0

a_{t}=3.96cm/s^2

radial component of acceleration is given by

a_{c}=\omega ^{2}r

a_{c}=0.4356e^{6t}\times 2

a_{c}=0.8712e^{6t} cm/s^{2}

at t=0

a_c=0.8712 cm/s^{2}
