Answer:

Time taken by birdie’s trip = 1.2235 s (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Velocity = 4.25 m/s

Displacement = 5.2 m

Find:

Time taken by birdie’s trip = ?

Computation:

⇒ Time taken = Displacement / Velocity

⇒ Time taken by birdie’s trip = Displacement / Velocity

⇒ Time taken by birdie’s trip = 5.2 m / 4.25 m/s

⇒ Time taken by birdie’s trip = 1.2235 s (Approx)

A rocket is launched at an angle of 53.0° above the horizontal with an initial speed of 103 m/s. The rocket moves for 3.00 s alo

Serggg [28]

Before the engines fail $(0\le t\le3.00\,\rm s)$ , the rocket's horizontal and vertical position in the air are

$x=\left(103\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos53.0^\circ\,t+\dfrac12\left(32.0\,\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\cos53.0^\circ t^2$

$y=\left(103\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin53.0^\circ\,t+\dfrac12\left(32.0\,\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\sin53.0^\circ t^2$

and its velocity vector has components

$v_x=\left(103\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos53.0^\circ+\left(32.0\,\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\cos53.0^\circ t$

$v_y=\left(103\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin53.0^\circ+\left(32.0\,\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\sin53.0^\circ t$

After $t=3.00\,\rm s$ , its position is

$x=273\,\rm m$

$y=362\,\rm m$

and the rocket's velocity vector has horizontal and vertical components

$v_x=120\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

$v_y=159\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

After the engine failure $(t>3.00\,\rm s)$ , the rocket is in freefall and its position is given by

$x=273\,\mathrm m+\left(120\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t$

$y=362\,\mathrm m+\left(159\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2$

and its velocity vector's components are

$v_x=120\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

$v_y=159\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}-gt$

where we take $g=9.80\,\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}$ .

a. The maximum altitude occurs at the point during which $v_y=0$ :

$159\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}-gt=0\implies t=16.2\,\rm s$

At this point, the rocket has an altitude of

$362\,\mathrm m+\left(159\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(16.2\,\rm s)-\dfrac g2(16.2\,\rm s)^2=1650\,\rm m$

b. The rocket will eventually fall to the ground at some point after its engines fail. We solve $y=0$ for $t$ , then add 3 seconds to this time:

$362\,\mathrm m+\left(159\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t=34.6\,\rm s$

So the rocket stays in the air for a total of $37.6\,\rm s$ .

c. After the engine failure, the rocket traveled for about 34.6 seconds, so we evalute $x$ for this time $t$ :

$273\,\mathrm m+\left(120\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(34.6\,\rm s)=4410\,\rm m$

A. In one short sentence, explain why we call the force of gravity an attractive force.

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Explanation:

(a) The force of gravity is called an attractive force because it is the force (although weak) in which a planetary body or matter uses to attract an object towards itself.

(b) Yes, it does and the formula for force of gravity between any two object is

F = G $\frac{m1m2}{r}$

where m1 and m2 are masses of the first and second object respectively

r is the distance between the center of the two masses

G is the gravitational constant

You wish to buy a motor that will be used to lift a30-kg bundle of shingles from the ground to the roof of a house. The shingles

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

the minimum value of torque is 101.7 N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of bundle of shingles, m = 30 kg

Upward acceleration of the shingles,

The radius of the motor of the pulley, r = 0.3 m

Let T is the tension acting on the shingles when it is lifted up. It can be calculated as :

T-mg=ma

T=m(g+a)

$T=10\times (9.8+1.5)\\T = 113 N$

Let $\tau$ is the minimum torque that the motor must be able to provide. It is given by :

$\tau=r\times T\tau=0.3\times 339\tau=101.7\ N-m$

the minimum value of torque is $101.7 N-m.$
