Where c is a constant that depends on the initial gas pressure behind the projectile. The initial position of the projectile is

s=1.5m and the projectile is initially at rest. The projectile accelerates until it reaches the end of the barrel at s=3m. What is the value of the constant c such that the projectile leaves the barrel with a velocity of 200 m/s?

Complete Question

A gas gun uses high pressure gas tp accelerate projectile through the gun barrel.

If the acceleration of the projective is : a = c/s m/s​2

Where c is a constant that depends on the initial gas pressure behind the projectile. The initial position of the projectile is s= 1.5m and the projectile is initially at rest. The projectile accelerates until it reaches the end of the barrel at s=3m. What is the value of the constant c such that the projectile leaves the barrel with velocity of 200m/s?

Answer:

The value of the constant is  c = 28853.78 \ m^2 /s^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

         The acceleration is  a =  \frac{c}{s}\   m/s^2

         The  initial position of the projectile is s= 1.5m

         The final position of the projectile is s_f =  3 \ m

          The velocity is  v = 200 \ m/s

     Generally  time  =  \frac{ds}{dv}

   and  acceleration is a =  \frac{v}{time }

so

            a = v  \frac{dv}{ds}

 =>        vdv  =  a ds

             vdv  = \frac{c}{s}  ds

integrating both sides

           \int\limits^a_b  vdv  = \int\limits^c_d \frac{c}{s}  ds

Now for the limit

          a =  200 m/s

             b = 0 m/s  

         c = s= 3 m

          d =s_f= 1.5 m

So we have  

           \int\limits^{200}_{0}  vdv  = \int\limits^{3}_{1.5} \frac{c}{s}  ds

              [\frac{v^2}{2} ] \left | 200} \atop {0}} \right.  = c [ln s]\left | 3} \atop {1.5}} \right.

            \frac{200^2}{2}  =  c ln[\frac{3}{1.5} ]

=>           c = \frac{20000}{0.69315}

              c = 28853.78 \ m^2 /s^2

Is a measure of how closely packed together the particles of matter are in a specific volume
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Density is an important physical property of matter. It reflects how closely packed the particles of matter are. When particles are packed together more tightly, matter has greater density.

A solid, homogeneous sphere with a mass of m0, a radius of r0 and a density of rho0 is placed in a container of water. Initially
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

a) s,f,r  b) r c) f

Explanation:

To determine what happens with the sphere we use Newton's second law with the Archimedes principle that states that the thrust (B) on a body is equal to the weight of the liquid dislodged

For the sphere to be in equilibrium the sum of forces is zero

    B - W = 0

    B = W = mg

Now let's use the concept of density for the body and water

Solid sphere

   ρ = m / V

  V = 4/3 π r³

   m = ρ₀ (4/3 π r³)

   W = ρ₀ (4/3 π r³) g

Water  (a)

   ρ = mₐ / Vₐ

   mₐ = ρ Vₐ

   B = ρ Vₐ g

Let's replace and simplify

   ρ Vₐ g = ρ₀ (4/3 π r³) g

    ρ Vf = ρ₀ (4/3 π r³)            (1)

For the initial condition with rho, mo and ro the height of the water is H, let's analyze each case

a) We have the same mass, but less radius, as density is mass over volume density increases

   r  <ro        V <V₀   ⇒      ρ₁> ρ₀

When analyzing the equation (1) on the right side, this case is the most complicated because I can make the relationship between the density of the sphere and its volume change even when the mass is constant

Assume the three possibilities

- The product of (ρ₁ V) that does not matter in that case the left side does not change and the mark remains the same (s)

- The product (ρ₁ V) increases the left side must increase so the mark goes up (r)

- The product (ρ₁ V) decreases the left side should go down, so the low mark (f)

b) sphere the same radius, but the density increases.

In this case the right side of the equation (1) increases, therefore the left side must increase so that the volume must increase and consequently increase the height (r)

c) you have the same radius, but the mass decreases

      r = r₀     V = V₀     m <m₀        ρ₁ <ρ₀

The right side of the equation decreases, because the density decreases, the left side must decrease, for this the volume must decrease, lowering the height (f)
