Answer: 21.91 s

Explanation:

Given that,

Maximum height of the car, h = 48 ft

Acceleration of the elevator, a = 0.6 ft/s²

Deceleration of the elevator, -a = 0.3 ft/s²

Maximum speed of the elevator, v = 8 ft/s

Initial speed of the elevator, u = 0

If when the elevator accelerate from 0 to maximum velocity, v.

Let s be the vertical distance traveled during acceleration.

v² = u² - 2as

s = (v² - u²) / 2a

s = (8² - 0) / 2*0.6

s = 64 / 1.2

s = 53.33 ft

If when the elevator decelerates from maximum velocity, v to zero.

Let S be the vertical distance traveled during deceleration

u² = v² + 2aS

S = (u² - v²) / 2a

S = (0 - 8²) / 2 * 0.3

S = -64 / 0.6

S = 106.67 ft

Since he sum of s and S (i.e s + S) is greater than 48 ft, then the elevator will switch from acceleration to deceleration

without reaching the maximum velocity. Below, the switching point is labeled y.

v² = u² + 2ay

y = v²/2a

Inserting this into the earlier deceleration equation, we have

-v²/2 = d * [48 - (v²/2a)], where

d = deceleration

a = acceleration

Therefore, v = [4.√6. a √-(a.b/a)] / b

Where b = acceleration - deceleration

v = 4.382 ft/s

Using this newly found v, we proceed to find our s

s = (u² + v²)/2a

s = 19.2 / 1.2

s = 16 ft

The transport times for each segment are found from

v = u + a*t, thus upward t1

4.382 = 0 + 0.6 * t

t = 4.382/0.6

t = 7.303 s

Also,

4.382 = 0 + 0.3 * T

T = 4.382/0.3

T = 14.607 s

The total travel time is then t + T =

7.303 + 14.607

Total time of travel is 21.91 s

An ac power generator produces 73.37 a (rms) at 4623 v. the voltage is stepped up to 105,033 v by an ideal transformer, and the

evablogger [386]

Step up transformer is a device which is used to step up the voltage which is input with some value.

This is based upon the principle of mutual inductance and in this the voltage input and voltage output is different because of number of turns.

Here if ideal transformer is given then power input and power output of the transformer must be same as there is no power loss in ideal transformer.

So we can write

$i_pV_p = i_sV_s$

here

$i_p$ = 73.37 A

$V_p$ = 4623 V

$V_s$ = 105033 A

now using above equation we will have

$73.37*4623 = 105033*i_s$

solving above we will have

$i_s = 3.23 A$

A rocket has total mass Mi=360 kg , including Mf=330kg of fuel and oxidizer. In interstellar space, it starts from rest at the p

steposvetlana [31]

let the parameters are:

M=instantaneous mass of the rocket

v=velocity of the rocket

t=time

initial mass=Mi=360 kg

fuel mass=Mf=330 kg

relative speed=Ve=1500 m/s

rate of mass decay=k=2.5 kg/s

writing newton’s second law of motion:

M*du/dt=-Ve*dM/dt

==>du=-Ve*dM/M

Integration of both sides,

u=-Ve*ln(M)

using the limits with at t=0, u=0 and velocity being v(t),

at t=0, mass=Mi, at any time t, mass=Mi-k*t

v(t)-0=-Ve*ln((Mi-k*t)/Mi)

v(t)=-Ve*ln(1-(k*t/Mi))

<h3>What is needed for rocket propulsion?</h3>

Rocket propulsion is the strategy utilized to make the basic thrust to lift a rocket into the air. The force that the rocket employments to lift off from the soil is known as rocket propulsion. The third law of movement by Newton serves as the foundation for rocket propulsion. Here, the fuel is shot out from the exit mightily in arrange to cause an equal and converse reaction. The some sorts of rocket propulsion are fuelled by liquid, strong, cold gas, and particles. The rocket's mass, fuel burn rate, and weaken speed all impact speeding up.

Two identical conducting spheres, fixed in place, attract each other with an electrostatic force of -0.9537 N when separated by

scoray [572]

Answer:

<em>The initial charges on the spheres are </em> $6.796\ 10^{-6}\ c$ and $-3.898\ 10^{-6}\ c$

Explanation:

<u>Electrostatic Force </u>

Two charges q1 and q2 separated a distance d exert a force on each other which magnitude is computed by the known Coulomb's formula

$\displaystyle F=\frac{K\ q_1\ q_2}{d^2}$

We are given the distance between two unknown charges d=50 cm = 0.5 m and the attractive force of -0.9537 N. This means both charges are opposite signs.

With these conditions we set the equation

$\displaystyle F_1=\frac{K\ q_1\ q_2}{0.5^2}=-0.9537$

Rearranging

$\displaystyle q_1\ q_2=\frac{-0.9537(0.5)^2}{k}$

Solving for q1.q2

$\displaystyle q_1\ q_2=-2.6492.10^{-11}\ c^2\ \ ......[1]$

The second part of the problem states the spheres are later connected by a conducting wire which is removed, and then, the spheres repel each other with an electrostatic force of 0.0756 N.

The conducting wire makes the charges on both spheres to balance, i.e. free electrons of the negative charge pass to the positive charge and they finally have the same charge:

$\displaystyle q=\frac{q_1+q_2}{2}$

Using this second condition:

$\displaystyle F_2=\frac{K\ q^2}{0.5^2}=\frac{K(q_1+q_2)^2}{(4)0.5^2}=0.0756$

$\displaystyle q_1+q_2=2.8983\ 10^{-6}\ C$

Solving for q2

$\displaystyle q_2=2.8983\ 10^{-6}\ C-q_1$

Replacing in [1]

$\displaystyle q_1(2.8983\ 10^{-6}-q_1)=-2.64917.10^{-11}$

Rearranging, we have a second-degree equation for q1.

$\displaystyle q_1^2-2.8983.10^{-6}q_1-2.64917.10^{-11}=0$

Solving, we have two possible solutions

$\displaystyle q_1=6,796.10^{-6}\ c$

$\displaystyle q_1=-3.898.10^{-6}\ c$

Which yields to two solutions for q2

$\displaystyle q_2=-3.898.10^{-6}\ c$

$\displaystyle q_2=6.796.10^{-6}\ c$

Regardless of their order, the initial charges on the spheres are $6.796\ 10^{-6}\ c$ and $-3.898\ 10^{-6}\ c$

If a guitar string vibrates at 304hz as its fundamental frequency, what is the frequency of the third harmonic?

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

912 Hz

Explanation:

Third harmonic multiplies the frequency by 3. Harmonics are waves that operate at a frequency that is an integer (whole-number) multiple of the fundamental frequency.
