Answer: 30 metres

Explanation:

Initial velocity of object = 120m/s

Time taken = 4.0s

Distance covered by object = ?

Recall that distance = (Change in velocity / Time taken)

Distance = (120m/s)/4.0s

= (120m/s) / 4.0s

= 30m

Thus, the object will be 30 metres high

5. How much does a 20 m x 10 m x 8 m swimming pool filled with water weigh? Assume that water has a density of 62 kg/m'.

Nookie1986 [14]

Explanation:

First of all we calculate the volume which is 20m×10m×8m= 1600m^3 and then multiply the density by the volume to get the mass which will equal to 99200kg therefore the weight will be

Weight

mass × acceleration due to gravity

=99200kg × 10m^s^2

=992000N

Point charge μC is located at x =, y = , point charge is located at x = 0m. What are (a)the magnitude and (b)direction of the to

pishuonlain [190]

Answer: The question has some details missing. here is the complete question ; Point charge 1.5 μC is located at x = 0, y = 0.30 m, point charge -1.5 μC is located at x = 0 y = -0.30m. What are (a)the magnitude and (b)direction of the total electric force that these charges exert on a third point charge Q = 5.0 μC at x = 0.40 m, y = 0

Explanation:

a) First of all find the distance between the two charges;

x = 0, y = 0.30 and x = 0.40 m, y = 0

r = √( 0.4² + 0.3²)

= 0.5m

hence, the force F = 2Kq1q2cosθ /r²...............equation 1

but cosθ = y/r = 0.3/0.5

cosθ = 0.6

plugging back to equation 1;

F = 2 x 9 x 10^9 x 1.5 x 10^-6 x 5 x 10^-6 /0.5^2

F = 540 x 10^-3

Magnitude of Force = 0.54N

b) Direction is at angle 90

A 10 kg monkey climbs up a massless rope that runs over a frictionless tree limb and back down to a 15 kg package on the ground.

pshichka [43]

Answer:

A. 4,9 m/s2

B. 2,0 m/s2

C. 120 N

Explanation:

In the image, 1 is going to represent the monkey and 2 is going to be the package. Let a_mín be the minimum acceleration that the monkey should have in the upward direction, so the package is barely lifted. Apply Newton’s second law of motion:

$\sum F_y=m_1*a_m_i_n = T-m_1*g$

If the package is barely lifted, that means that T=m_2*g; then:

$\sum F_y =m_1*a_m_i_n=m_2*g-m_1*g$

Solving the equation for a_mín, we have:

$a_m_i_n=((m_2-m_1)/m_1)*g = ((15kg-10kg)/10kg)*9,8 m/s^2 =4,9 m/s^2$

Once the monkey stops its climb and holds onto the rope, we set the equation of Newton’s second law as it follows:

For the monkey: $\sum F_y = m_1*a \rightarrow T-m_1*g=m_1*a$

For the package: $\sum F_y = m_2*a \rightarrow m_2*g - T = m_2*a$

The acceleration a is the same for both monkey and package, but have opposite directions, this means that when the monkey accelerates upwards, the package does it downwards and vice versa. Therefore, the acceleration a on the equation for the package is negative; however, if we invert the signs on the sum of forces, it has the same effect. To be clearer:

For the package: $\sum F_y = -m_2*a \rightarrow T-m2*g=-m_2*a \rightarrow m_2*g -T=m_2 *a$
