One strategy in a snowball fight is to throw a snowball at a high angle over level ground. While your opponent is watching the f

irst one, a second snowball is thrown at a low angle timed to arrive before or at the same time as the first one. Assume both snowballs are thrown with a speed of 20.0 m/s. The first one is thrown at an angle of 75.0° with respect to the horizontal. (a) at what angle should the second snowball be thrown to arrive at the same point as the first? (b) How many seconds later should the second snowball be thrown after the first to arrive at the same time?

Answer:

Part a)

\theta_2 = 15 degree

Part b)

\Delta t = 2.88 s

Explanation:

Part a)

In order to have same range for same initial speed we can say

R_1 = R_2

\frac{v^2 sin2\theta_1}{g} = \frac{v^2 sin2\theta_2}{g}

so after comparing above we will have

\theta_1 = 90 - \theta

so we have

75 = 90 - \theta_2

\theta_2 = 15 degree

Part b)

Time of flight for the first ball is given as

T_1 = \frac{2vsin\theta}{g}

T_1 = \frac{2(20)sin75}{9.81}

T_1 = 3.94 s

Now for other angle of projection time is given as

T_2 = \frac{2(20)sin15}{9.81}

T_2 = 1.05 s

So here the time lag between two is given as

\Delta t = T_1 - T_2

\Delta t = 3.94 - 1.05

\Delta t = 2.88 s

A car was traveling at a constant speed of 20m/s overcomes a constant frictional resistant of 300newton.. What is the horse powe
nadezda [96]

Answer:

8 hp

Explanation:

Power = work / time

P = W/t

Work = force × distance

W = Fd

Substituting:

P = Fd/t

P = Fv

Given that F = 300 N and v = 20 m/s:

P = (300 N) (20 m/s)

P = 6000 W

P = 6 kW

Converting to horse power:

6 kW × (1 hp / ¾ kW) = 8 hp

A specimen of aluminum having a rectangular cross section 9.5 mm × 13.0 mm (0.3740 in. × 0.5118 in.) is pulled in tension with 3
miskamm [114]

Answer: 〖4.1x10〗^(-3)

Explanation:

From the question, the parameters given are:

  • Force= 35600N(8003lbf)

  • Cross section (area)= 9.5mm x 13mm= 123.5 〖mm〗^2 = 0.0001235m^2 (after converting from 〖mm〗^2 to m^2 which is the standard unit for measuring length)

  • Modulus of elasticity = 69 GPa = 69 x 〖10〗^9 N/m^2

We can solve this using the formula for elastic modulus ( E ) = stress/strain  

making strain the subject of the formula the equation above becomes strain= stress/ elastic modulus

Where strain= change in length/ length

And  

Stress= force/ area

now let’s calculate value for stress

Stress= 35600/0.0001235=288,259,109  N/m^2

substituting the value for stress into the equation strain= stress/ elastic modulus we have

Strain= 288,259,109 / 69 x 〖10〗^9 = 〖4.1x10〗^(-3)
