Assume that an intercontinental ballistic missile goes from rest to a suborbital speed of 6.50 km/s in 60.0 s (the actual speed

and time are classified). What is its average acceleration in m/s2 and in multiples of g (9.80 m/s2)?

Answer:

Average acceleration is $(11.05)g\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial velocity, u = 0

Final velocity, v = 6.5 km/s = 6500 m/s

Time taken, t = 60 s

Acceleration, $a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$a=\dfrac{v}{t}$

$a=\dfrac{6500\ m/s}{60}$

$a=108.33\ m/s^2$

Since, $g=9.8\ m/s^2$

So, $a=(11.05)g\ m/s^2$

So, the angular acceleration of the missile is $(11.05)g\ m/s^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

A box is placed on a conveyor belt that moves with a constant speed of 1.05 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The box stops in 0.139 seconds, after moving 7.29cm (0.0729m) backwards relative to the belt.

Explanation:

As the box is initially at rest relative to the earth, it is moving backwards with a speed of 1.05m/s relative to the belt. Then, the frictional force acts on the box to make it stop relative to the belt. So, we first have to write the equations of motion of the box in each axis:

$x: f_k=ma\implies a=\frac{f_k}{m} \\\\y: N-mg=0\implies N=mg$

Since the frictional force $f_k$ is equal to $f_k=\mu_k N=\mu_k mg$ , then we have that the acceleration is:

$a=\frac{\mu_k mg}{m}=\mu_k g$

Now, from the definition of acceleration we get:

$a=\frac{v-v_0}{t}\implies t=\frac{v-v_0}{a}$

And, as the final velocity is zero because the box gets to a stop, we have:

$t=-\frac{v_0}{a}=-\frac{v_0}{\mu_k g}$

(Don't worry about the negative sign. It will disappear because the initial velocity is also negative, since we take the box initially moving backwards)

Then, plugging in the given values, we calculate the time:

$t=-\frac{(-1.05m/s)}{0.770(9.81m/s^{2})}=0.139s$

In words, the time the box takes to stop sliding relative to the belt is 0.139s.

The displacement of the box in this time, is given by the kinematics formula:

$v^{2}=v_0^{2}+2ax\implies x=-\frac{v_0^{2}}{2\mu_kg}$

Finally, we calculate the displacement:

$x=-\frac{(1.05m/s)^{2} }{2(0.770)(9.81m/s^2)}=-0.0729m=-7.29cm$

This means that the box moves 7.29cm backwards relative to the belt.

The electric field in a region of space increases from 0 to 2150 N/C in 5.00 s. What is the magnitude of the induced magnetic fi

Feliz [49]

To solve this problem we will use the Ampere-Maxwell law, which describes the magnetic fields that result from a transmitter wire or loop in electromagnetic surveys. According to Ampere-Maxwell law:

$\oint \vec{B}\vec{dl} = \mu_0 \epsilon_0 \frac{d\Phi_E}{dt}$

Where,

B= Magnetic Field

l = length

$\mu_0$ = Vacuum permeability

$\epsilon_0$ = Vacuum permittivity

Since the change in length (dl) by which the magnetic field moves is equivalent to the perimeter of the circumference and that the electric flow is the rate of change of the electric field by the area, we have to

$B(2\pi r) = \mu_0 \epsilon_0 \frac{d(EA)}{dt}$

Recall that the speed of light is equivalent to

$c^2 = \frac{1}{\mu_0 \epsilon_0}$

Then replacing,

$B(2\pi r) = \frac{1}{C^2} (\pi r^2) \frac{d(E)}{dt}$

$B = \frac{r}{2C^2} \frac{dE}{dt}$

Our values are given as

$dE = 2150N/C$

$dt = 5s$

$C = 3*10^8m/s$

$D = 0.440m \rightarrow r = 0.220m$

Replacing we have,

$B = \frac{r}{2C^2} \frac{dE}{dt}$

$B = \frac{0.220}{2(3*10^8)^2} \frac{2150}{5}$

$B =5.25*10^{-16}T$

Therefore the magnetic field around this circular area is $B =5.25*10^{-16}T$

A 1250 kg car, driving 7.39 m/s, runs into the back of a stationary 5380 kg truck. After the collision, the truck moves forward

Leno4ka [110]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the car, m₁ = 1250 kg

Initial speed of the car, u₁ = 7.39 m/s

Mass of the truck, m₂ = 5380 kg

It is stationary, u₂ = 0

Final speed of the truck, v₂ = 2.3 m/s

Let v₁ is the final velocity of the car. Using the conservation of momentum as :

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

$1250\times 7.39+5380\times 0=1250\times v_1+5380\times 2.3$

$v_1=-2.5\ m/s$

So, the final velocity of the car is 2.5 m/s but in opposite direction. Hence, this is the required solution.
