Vx = 2*cos30 = 1.73m's
Other words:
D = Vo*t = 1.4 * 21 = 31.5m. @ 30 Deg.
Dy = 31.5*sin30 = 15.75 m.

<u>Answer:</u> The horizontal velocity of rover is 1.73 m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Horizontal velocity is defined as the velocity of body proceeding in the horizontal direction. This velocity proceeds in the 'x' direction.

Mathematically,

$V_x=V_o\cos \theta$

where,

$V_o$ = constant velocity of rover = 2 m/s

$\cos \theta$ = cosine function of angle 30°

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$V_x=2\times \cos (30^o)\\\\V_x=1.73m/s$

Hence, the horizontal velocity of rover is 1.73 m/s

Like the filters falling through the air, a car on the freeway represents an object with a high Reynolds number traveling throug

Goshia [24]

Answer:

ΔF=125.22 %

Explanation:

We know that drag force on the car given as

$F_D=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho C_DA v^2$

$C_D$ =Drag coefficient

A=Projected area

v=Velocity

ρ=Density

All other quantity are constant so we can say that drag force and velocity can be given as

$\dfrac{F_D_1}{F_D_2}=\dfrac{v_1^2}{v_2^2}$

Now by putting the values

$\dfrac{F_D_1}{F_D_2}=\dfrac{v_1^2}{v_2^2}$

$\dfrac{F_D_1}{F_D_2}=\dfrac{50^2}{75^2}$

$\dfrac{F_D_1}{F_D_2}=0.444$

Percentage Change in the drag force

$\Delta F=\dfrac{F_D_2-F_D_1}{F_D_1}\times 100$

$\Delta F=\dfrac{F_D_2-0.444F_D_2}{0.444F_D_2}\times 100$

$\Delta F=\dfrac{1-0.444}{0.444}\times 100$

ΔF=125.22 %

Therefore force will increase by 125.22 %.

The flywheel of a steam engine runs with a constant angular velocity of 190 rev/min. When steam is shut off, the friction of the

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

(a) $\alpha = - 1.32\ rev/m^{2}$

(b) $\theta = 13674\ rev$

(c) $\alpha_{tan} = 8.75\times 10^{- 4}\ m/s^{2}$

(d) $a = 22.458\ m/s^{2}$

Solution:

As per the question:

Angular velocity, $\omega = 190\ rev/min$

Time taken by the wheel to stop, t = 2.4 h = $2.4\times 60 = 144\ min$

Distance from the axis, R = 38 cm = 0.38 m

Now,

(a) To calculate the constant angular velocity, suing Kinematic eqn for rotational motion:

$\omega' = \omega + \alpha t$

$omega'$ = final angular velocity

$\omega$ = initial angular velocity

$\alpha$ = angular acceleration

Now,

$0 = 190 + \alpha \times 144$

$\alpha = - 1.32\ rev/m^{2}$

Now,

(b) The no. of revolutions is given by:

$\omega'^{2} = \omega^{2} + 2\alpha \theta$

$0 = 190^{2} + 2\times (- 1.32) \theta$

$\theta = 13674\ rev$

(c) Tangential component does not depend on instantaneous angular velocity but depends on radius and angular acceleration:

$\alpha_{tan} = 0.38\times 1.32\times \frac{2\pi}{3600} = 8.75\times 10^{- 4}\ m/s^{2}$

(d) The radial acceleration is given by:

$\alpha_{R} = R\omega^{2} = 0.32(80\times \frac{2\pi}{60})^{2} = 22.45\ rad/s$

Linear acceleration is given by:

$a = \sqrt{\alpha_{R}^{2} + \alpha_{tan}^{2}}$

$a = \sqrt{22.45^{2} + (8.75\times 10^{- 4})^{2}} = 22.458\ m/s^{2}$

sound is a longitudinal wave, and its speed depends on the medium through which it propagates. in air, sound travels at 343 m/s

melomori [17]

The speed of the sound wave in the medium, given the data is 3900 m

<h3>Velocity of a wave </h3>

The velocity of a wave is related to its frequency and wavelength according to the following equation:

Velocity (v) = wavelength (λ) × frequency (f)

v = λf

With the above formula, we can obtain the speed of the sound wave. Details below:

<h3>How to determine speed of the sound wave</h3>

The speed of the wave can be obtained as illustrated below:

Frequency (f) = 600 Hz
Wavelength (λ) = 6.5 m
Velocity (v) =?

v = λf

v = 6.5 × 600

v = 3900 m

Thus, the speed of the sound wave in the medium is 3900 m
