CP Bang! A student sits atop a platform a distance h above the ground. He throws a large firecracker horizontally with a speed.

However, a wind blowing parallel to the ground gives the firecracker a constant horizontal acceleration with magnitude a. As a result, the firecracker reaches the ground directly below the student. Determine the height h in terms of v, a, and g. Ignore the effect of air resistance on the vertical motion.

Answer:

 h = v₀ g / a

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using the kinematic equations. As they indicate that the air does not influence the vertical movement, we can find the time it takes for the body to reach the floor

          y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

The vertical start speed is zero

            t² = 2t / g

The horizontal document has an acceleration, with direction opposite to the speed therefore it is negative, the expression is

            x = v₀ₓ t - ½ a t²

Indicates that it reaches the same exit point x = 0

           v₀ₓ t = ½ a t2

           v₀ₓ = ½ a (2h / g)

           v₀ₓ = v₀

           h = v₀ g / a

The Millersburg Ferry (m = 13000.0 kg loaded) is travelling at 11 m/s when the engines are put in reverse. The engineproduces a
Pie

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Millersburg Ferry, m = 13000 kg

Velocity, v = 11 m/s

Applied force, F = 10⁶ N

Time period, t = 20 seconds

(a) Impulse is given by the product of force and time taken i.e.

J=F.\Delta t

J=10^6\ N\times 20\ s

J=2\times 10^7\ N-s

(b) Impulse is also given by the change in momentum i.e.

J=\Delta p=p_f-p_i

J=p_f-p_i

p_f=J+p_i

p_f=2\times 10^7\ N-s+13000\ kg\times 11\ m/s

p_f=20143000\ kg-m/s

(c) For new velocity,

v_f=\dfrac{p_f}{m}

v_f=\dfrac{20143000\ kg-m/s}{13000\ kg}

v_f=1549.46\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

A cylindrical metal can is to have no lid. It is to have a volume of 125π in3. What height minimizes the amount of metal used?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Minimum height of metal = 5 inches

Explanation:

Volume of the cylindrical metal = πR²H = 125π

cancelling out π on both sides

R²H = 125

Hence it can be deduced that R² = 25 and H = 5

Hence minimum height of metal = 5 inches
