Fredrick did an investigation on mass and acceleration. He applied a force to a toy car and measured the distance it moved. He t

hen taped weights of different masses to the car and applied the same force. He entered his observations in a table.
Fredrick’s Investigation
Mass Distance
car 250 grams 4.2 meters
car + 50 grams 300 grams 3.8 meters
car + 100 grams 350 grams 3.0 meters

Which statement correctly interprets the data?
A. Mass has no effect on acceleration.
B. More mass results in less acceleration.
C. More force results in greater acceleration.

A projectile is fired vertically upwards and reaches a height of 78.4 m. Find the velocity of projection and the time it takes t
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

1.) U = 39.2 m/s

2.) t = 4s

Explanation: Given that the

height H = 78.4m

The projectile is fired vertically upwards under the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

Let's assume that the maximum height = 78.4m. And at maximum height, final velocity V = 0

Velocity of projections can be achieved by using the formula

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

g will be negative as the object is moving against the gravity

0 = U^2 - 2 × 9.8 × 78.4

U^2 = 1536.64

U = sqrt( 1536.64 )

U = 39.2 m/s

The time it takes to reach its highest point can be calculated by using the formula;

V = U - gt

Where V = 0

Substitute U and t into the formula

0 = 39.2 - 9.8 × t

9.8t = 39.2

t = 39.2/9.8

t = 4 seconds.

Water enters a typical garden hose of diameter 0.016 m with a velocity of 3 m/s. Calculate the exit velocity of water from the g
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

v₂ = 306.12 m/s

Explanation:

We know that the volume flow rate of the water or any in-compressible liquid remains constant throughout motion. Therefore, from continuity equation, we know that:

A₁v₁ = A₂v₂

where,

A₁ = Area of entrance pipe = πd₁²/4 = π(0.016 m)²/4 = 0.0002 m²

v₁ = entrance velocity = 3 m/s

A₂ = Area of nozzle = πd₂²/4 = π(0.005 m)²/4 = 0.0000196 m²

v₂ = exit velocity = ?

Therefore,

(0.0002 m²)(3 m/s) = (0.0000196 m²)v₂

v₂ = (0.006 m³/s)/(0.0000196 m²)

<u>v₂ = 306.12 m/s</u>

Andy is waiting at the signal. As soon as the light turns green, he accelerates his car at a uniform rate of 8.00 meters/second2
lbvjy [14]
-- The car starts from rest, and goes 8 m/s faster every second.

-- After 30 seconds, it's going (30 x 8) = 240 m/s.

-- Its average speed during that 30 sec is  (1/2) (0 + 240) = 120 m/s

-- Distance covered in 30 sec at an average speed of 120 m/s 

                                                                           = <span> 3,600 meters .</span>
___________________________________

The formula that has all of this in it is the formula for 
distance covered when accelerating from rest:

       Distance = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time)²

                       = (1/2) ·      (8 m/s²)     · (30 sec)²

                       =      (4 m/s²)          ·      (900 sec²)

                       =            3600 meters.

_________________________________

When you translate these numbers into units for which
we have an intuitive feeling, you find that this problem is 
quite bogus, but entertaining nonetheless.

When the light turns green, Andy mashes the pedal to the metal
and covers almost 2.25 miles in 30 seconds. 

How does he do that ?

By accelerating at 8 m/s².  That's about 0.82 G  !

He does zero to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds, and at the end
of the 30 seconds, he's moving at 534 mph !  

He doesn't need to worry about getting a speeding ticket.
Police cars and helicopters can't go that fast, and his local
police department doesn't have a jet fighter plane to chase
cars with.

A 7.7 kg sphere makes a perfectly inelastic collision with a second sphere initially at rest. The composite system moves with a
klemol [59]

Answer:

15.4 kg.

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

mu+m'u' = V(m+m').................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the first sphere, m' = mass of the second sphere, u = initial velocity of the first sphere, u' = initial velocity of the second sphere, V = common velocity of both sphere.

Given: m = 7.7 kg, u' = 0 m/s (at rest)

Let: u = x m/s, and V = 1/3x m/s

Substitute into equation 1

7.7(x)+m'(0) = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7x = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7 = 1/3(7.7+m')

23.1 = 7.7+m'

m' = 23.1-7.7

m' = 15.4 kg.

Hence the mass of the second sphere = 15.4 kg
