Lyrx [107]

Answer:

A) 17.7 m/s

B) 15.98 m

C) Zero

E) 9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

given information

distance, h = - 34 m

time, t = 5 s

A) What is the initial speed of the egg?

h - h₀ = v₀t - \frac{1}{2} gt², h₀ = 0

- 34 = v₀ 5 - \frac{1}{2} 9.8 5²

- 34 = 5 v₀ - 122.5

v₀ = 122.5 - 34/5

    = 17.7 m/s

B) How high does it rise above its starting point?

v² = v₀² - 2gh

v = 0 (highest point)

2gh = v₀²

h = v₀²/2g

  = 17.7²/2 (9.8)

  = 15.98 m

C) What is the magnitude of its velocity at the highest point?

v = 0 (at highest point)

E) What are the magnitude and direction of its acceleration at the highest point?

g= 9.8 m/s², since the egg is moved vertically, the acceleration is the same as the gravitational acceleration.

a 2000 kg elevator with broken cables in a test rig is falling at 4.00 m/s when it contacts a cushioning spring at the bottom of
Ratling [72]

A. The speed of the elevator after it has moved downward 1.00 m from the point where it first contacts a spring is 3.65m/s

B. The acceleration when the elevator is 1.00 {\rm m} below point where it first contacts a spring is 4m/s²

In calculating the speed of the elevator and acceleration, first we have to find the force of gravity F on the elevator, which is the force pulling the elevator in downward direction. Using the equation for force of gravity which is:

F = mg

Where:

Mass of the elevator; m= 2000kg

Acceleration due to gravity; g = 9.8m/s

2000kg × 9.8m/s²= 19600N

F = 19600

Force of opposing friction clamp of gravity = 17000N

Net force on the elevator = force of gravity - Force of opposing friction clamp

Net force on the elevator = 19600 - 17000

Net force on the elevator = 2600 N

We will also find the kinetic energy K.E; of the elevator at the point of contact with the spring using:

K.E = 1/2 mv²

Where

Mass of the elevator; m = 2000kg

Velocity of the elevator = 4.00m/s

K.E = (1/2)*2000kg*(4m/s)²

K.E = 16000J

The kinetic energy and energy gained will be absorbed by the spring across the next 2m

Therefore,

Energy; E = K.E + P.E

Where:

Kinetic energy K.E = 16000J

Potential Energy P.E = ?

P.E of spring = net force absorbed × distance at compression

Where:

Net force absorbed = 2600N

Distance at compression = 2.0m

P.E = 2600*2

P.E = 5200J

E = 16000J + 5200J

E = 21200J

Spring constant = k

To find k

Using:

E = (1/2)*k*(x)²

Where:

E = 21200J

k = ?

x = 2m

21200J = (1/2)*k*(2m)²

21200J*2 = (4m)k

K = 42400J/4m

K = 10600N/m

Therefore,

Acceleration at 1m compression = ?

Using:

F = K*X

Where

F is force provided by the spring = 10600N/m,

K = 10600 N/m

X = 1m

F = 10600N/m * 1m

F = 10600N (upward)

A. The speed of the elevator after it has moved downward 1.00 {\rm m} from the point where it first contacts a spring?

Using:

Original Kinetic energy + net force on the elevator = final kinetic energy + spring energy

16000N + 2600N = (1/2)mv² + (1/2)k x²

18600 = (1/2)(2000)(v²) + (1/2)(10600N)(1²)

18600 = 1000(v²) + 5300

18600 - 5300 = 1000(v²)

13300 = 1000(v²)

V² = 13.300

V =3.65m/s

B. The acceleration of the elevator is 1.00m below point where it first contacts a spring

Spring constant = net force on the elevator + resultant force

Where:

Spring constant = 10600N

Net force on the elevator = 2600N

Resultant force = ?

10600N = 2600N + resultant force

Resultant force = 10600N - 2600N

Resultant force = 8000N

Using the equation for Newton's 2nd law where F = ma,

a = F/m

Where:

Resultant force; F =8000N

Mass of the elevator; m =2000kg)

a = 8000 / 2000

a = 4m/s²

Here's the complete question:

In a "worst-case" design scenario, a 2000kg elevator with broken cables is falling at 4.00m/s when it first contacts a cushioning spring at thebottom of the shaft. The spring is supposed to stop the elevator,compressing 2.00m as it does so. During the motion a safety clampapplies a constant 17000N frictional force to the elevator.

1. What is the speed of the elevator after it has moved downward 1.00m from the point where it first contacts aspring?

2. When the elevator is 1.00m below point where it first contacts a spring, what is its acceleration?

You are writing a short report to a familiar audience and plan to use an informal
miskamm [114]

The thing that the presenter can do to make the presentation to appear informal is to use contractions such as won't, it's, let's, and we're.

<h3>What is a report?</h3>

The term report refers to any formal presentation. It is usually made as part of an academic course or as part of professional development. It could be given while a person is hoping for promotion at a job that he or she is doing.

We have to bear in mind that the audience to whom the report is being presented is a familiar audience hence the presentation can be quite informal and devoid of the formality of presentation of reports as we know it to be.

Now, the focus is to make the presentation to look informal. The thing that the presenter can do to make the presentation to appear informal is to use contractions such as won't, it's, let's, and we're.
