The 45-g arrow is launched so that it hits and embeds in a 1.40 kg block. The block hangs from strings. After the arrow joins th

worty [1.4K]

Question: How fast was the arrow moving before it joined the block?

Answer:

The arrow was moving at 15.9 m/s.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy says that the kinetic energy of the arrow must be converted into the potential energy of the block and arrow after it they join:

$\dfrac{1}{2}m_av^2 = (m_b+m_a)\Delta Hg$

where $m_a$ is the mass of the arrow, $m_b$ is the mass of the block, $\Delta H$ of the change in height of the block after the collision, and $v$ is the velocity of the arrow before it hit the block.

Solving for the velocity $v$ , we get:

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2(m_b+m_a)\Delta Hg}{m_a} }$

and we put in the numerical values

$m_a = 0.045kg$ ,

$m_b = 1.40kg,$

$\Delta H = 0.4m,$

$g= 9.8m/s^2$

and simplify to get:

$\boxed{ v= 15.9m/s}$

The arrow was moving at 15.9 m/s

You're driving down the highway late one night at 20 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 38 m in front of you. Your reaction tim

Bingel [31]

Answer:

given,

speed of the car = 20 m/s

final speed of car = 0 m/s

distance between car and the deer = 38 m

reaction time, t = 0.5 s

deceleration of the car = 10 m/s².

a) distance between deer and car

distance travel in the reaction time

d₁ = v x t

d₁ = 20 x 0.5 = 10 m

distance travel after you apply brake

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a s

0 = 20² - 2 x 10 x s

s = 20 m

total distance traveled by the car

D = d₁ + d₂

D = 20 + 10 = 30 m

distance between car and the deer = 38 m - 30 m

= 8 m

b) now, maximum speed car.

distance travel in reaction time

d₁ = s x t

d₁ = 0.5 V

distance left between them

d₂ = 38 - d₁

d₂ = 38 - 0.5 V

distance travel after you apply brake

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a d₂

0 = (V)² - 2 x 10 x (38 - 0.5 V)

V² + 10 V - 760 = 0

now, solving the quadratic equation

$x = \dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$V = \dfrac{-10\pm \sqrt{10^2-4(1)(-760)}}{2(1)}$

V = 23.01 , -33.01

rejecting the negative term.

hence, maximum speed of the car could be V = 23.01 m/s

A stone is dropped from a bridge and hits the pavement below in two seconds. What is the velocity of the stone when it hits the

Helen [10]

We have: a = v/t
Here, t = 2 s [ Given ]
a = 9.8 m/s² [constant value for earth system ]

Substitute their values into the expression:
9.8 = v/2
v = 9.8 × 2
v = 19.6 m/s

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!

slava [35]

Answer:

f=-1380N

Explanation:

A karate master wants to break a board by hitting the board swiftly with his hand. The master's hand has a mass of 0.30 kg, and as it strikes the board, his hand has a velocity of 23.3 m/s. The master contacts the board for 0.0050 seconds

.the concluding part to the question should be

What is the impact force (impulse) on the board?

solution

from the Newton's second law of motion which states that

the rate of change in momentum is directly proportional to the force applied

f=m(v-u)/t

f=0.3(0-23.3)/0.005

f=-1380N

f=force impact

m=mass of the karates master's hand

t=time for the impact

v=0m/s final velocity

u=initial velocity
