Antiballistic missiles (ABMs) are designed to have very large accelerations so that they may intercept fast-moving incoming miss

iles in the short time available. What is the takeoff acceleration of a 10,000-kg ABM that expels 196 kg of gas per second at an exhaust velocity of 2.50×103 m/s?

3 0

Answer:

a = 39.2 m/s²

Explanation:

The <em>takeoff acceleration </em>of a missile or a rocket can be expressed by the equation

  • a = V₀/m * Δm/Δt - g

Where V₀ is the exhaust velocity, m is the mass of the missile, Δm is the mass of gas expelled during a timelapse Δt, and g is gravitational acceleration.

All required data is given by the problem, so now we <u>solve for a</u>:

a = 2.50x10³m/s ÷ 10,000kg * 196kg ÷ 1s - 9.8m/s²

a = 39.2 m/s²

A motorbike accelerates from 15m/s to 25m/s in 15 seconds.
RSB [31]

distance traveled by a uniformly accelerated bike is given as

d = \frac{v_f + v_i}{2} (t)

here we know that

v_f = 25 m/s

v_i = 15 m/s

t = 15 s

now we will have from above equation

d = \frac{15 + 25}{2} (15)

d = 20 (15) = 300 m

so it will cover the total distance of 300 m

A long straight cylindrical shell has an inner radius R_i and an outer radius R_0. It carries a current i, uniformly distributed
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Correct answer is option D

- Wire is on the cylinder axis and carries current i in the direction opposite to that of the current in the shell

Explanation:

- It cannot be Option E, because the magnetic field outside the wire would not be 0 due to the current carried by the conductor

-Also, the parallel wire cannot carry current in the same direction because, that would amplify the magnetic field created by the outer cylinder (since B is dir. proportional to the current) -and now, that leaves only option C and D. If, it is Option C, then that means one side of the cylinder would be more closer to the parallel wire than the other, so there would be different B fields on the two opposite sides of the cylinder. So, that means the answer is option D.

A 73-kg Norwegian olympian ski champion is going down a hill sloped at 39 ◦ . The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sk
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

net force on the skier = mg sin 39 - μ mg cos39

mg ( sin39 - μ cos39 )

= 73 x 9.8 ( .629 - .116)

= 367 N

impulse = net force x time = change in momentum .

= 367 x 5 = 1835 kg m /s

velocity of the skier after 5 s = 1835 / 73

= 25.13 m /s

b )

net force becomes zero

mg ( sin39 - μ cos39 ) = 0

μ = tan39

= .81

c )

net force becomes zero , so he will continue to go ahead with constant speed of 25.13 m /s

so he will have speed of 25.13 m /s after 5 s .
