An astronaut on a small planet wishes to measure the local value of g by timing pulses traveling down a wire which has a large o

bject suspended from it. Assume a wire of mass 4.00 g is 1.60 m long and has a 3.00-kg object suspended from it. A pulse requires 65.6 ms to traverse the length of the wire. Calculate gplanet from these data. (You may neglect the mass of the wire when calculating the tension in it.)

Answer:

The gplanet is 0.193 m/s^2

Explanation:

The speed of the pulse is:

v=\frac{lengthofthewipe}{traveltime} =\frac{1.6}{0.0656} =15.24m/s

v=\sqrt{\frac{MgL}{m} } \\v^{2} =\frac{MgL}{m} \\g=\frac{mv^{2} }{ML}

where

m=mass of the wire=4 g= 4x10^-3 kg

M=mass of the object= 3 kg

Replacing values:

g=\frac{4x10^{-3}*15.24^{2}  }{3*1.6} =0.193 m/s^{2}

Parker completed 4 laps around a 400 m track. He ran for a total of 30 mins. What is the
Over [174]

Answer:

Distance: 1600 m Displacement: 0

Explanation:

The distance is because He ran 400 meters 4 times getting 1600 m

4*400=1600

The displacement is 0 because displacement is the total distnce away from the starting point and since he ran laps around the track in the end he ended up in the same spot as last time.

A boat, whose speed in still water is 2.50 m/s, must cross a 285-m wide river and arrive at a point 118m upstream from where it
son4ous [18]

The figure shows the arrangement of system

The velocity of boat can be resolved in to two

     Horizontal component  = vcos θ = 2.50 cos 45 = 1.768 m/s

     Vertical component  = vsin θ = 2.50 sin 45 = 1.768 m/s

   Due to horizontal component the boat arrive arrives upstream,

           Total horizontal velocity =  1.768 - Vr, where Vr is the velocity of river.

  Total time taken to cross the river = width of river/ Vertical component of velocity

                         t = 285/1.768 = 161.20 seconds

So 118 meter is traveled at a velocity of 1.768-Vr in 161.20 seconds

That is           118 = (1.768-Vr)*161.20

                     1.768 - Vr =0.732

                         Vr = 1.036 m/s

So velocity of river flow =1.036 m/s
