A uniform brick of length 21 m is placed over

Physics
1 answer:
Paha777 [63]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

15.75 m

Explanation:

First, let's look at the top brick by itself.  In order for it not to tip over the bottom brick, its center of gravity must be right at the edge of the bottom brick.  So the edge of the top brick must be 10.5 m from the edge of the bottom brick.

Now let's look at both bricks as a combined mass.  We know the total length of this combined brick is 10.5 m + 21 m = 31.5 m.  And we know that for it to not tip over the edge of the surface, its center of gravity must be at the edge.  So the edge of the combined brick must be 31.5 m / 2 = 15.75 m from the edge of the surface.

The whole body metabolic rate of a bottlenose dolphin is 8000kcalsday. The dolphin weighs 190kg. What is the mass specific metab
Komok [63]

Answer: 42.1

Explanation:

Mass specific metabolic rate of a dolphin can be defined as the rate at which the dolphin consume energy per unit mass of body weight.

R = E/M

Where R = mass specific metabolic rate

E = Energy consumption = 8000kcalsday

M = mass = 190kg

R = 8000kcalsday/190kg

R = 42.1

At t=0 bullet A is fired vertically with an initial (muzzle) velocity of 450 m/s. When 3s. bullet B is fired upward with a muzzl
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

At time 10.28 s after A is fired bullet B passes A.

Passing of B occurs at 4108.31 height.

Explanation:

Let h be the height at which this occurs and t be the time after second bullet fires.

Distance traveled by first bullet can be calculated using equation of motion

s=ut+0.5at^2 \\

Here s = h,u = 450m/s a = -g and t = t+3

Substituting

h=450(t+3)-0.5\times 9.81\times (t+3)^2=450t+1350-4.9t^2-29.4t-44.1\\\\h=420.6t-4.9t^2+1305.9

Distance traveled by second bullet

Here s = h,u = 600m/s a = -g and t = t

Substituting

h=600t-0.5\times 9.81\times t^2=600t-4.9t^2\\\\h=600t-4.9t^2 \\

Solving both equations

600t-4.9t^2=420.6t-4.9t^2+1305.9\\\\179.4t=1305.9\\\\t=7.28s \\

So at time 10.28 s after A is fired bullet B passes A.

Height at t = 7.28 s

h=600\times 7.28-4.9\times 7.28^2\\\\h=4108.31m \\

Passing of B occurs at 4108.31 height.
