How do you find the volume of an irregular shaped object

1 answer:

8 0

You can find the volume of an irregular shaped object by immersing it in water in a beaker or other container with volume markings, and by seeing how much the level goes up.

A 50 kg pitcher throws a baseball with a mass of 0. 15 kg. If the ball is thrown with a positive velocity of 35 m/s and there is

dsp73

The velocity of the pitcher at the given mass is 0.1 m/s.

The given parameters:

Mass of the pitcher, m₁ = 50 kg
Mass of the baseball, m₂ = 0.15 kg
Velocity of the ball, u₂ = 35 m/s

Let the velocity of the pitcher = u₁

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum to determine the velocity of the pitcher as shown below;

m₁u₁ = m₂u₂

$u_1 = \frac{m_2 u_2}{m_1} \\\\u_1 = \frac{0.15 \times 35}{50} \\\\u_1 = 0.105 \ m/s\\\\u_1 \approx 0.1 \ m/s$

Thus, the velocity of the pitcher at the given mass is 0.1 m/s.

A 52.0-kg sandbag falls off a rooftop that is 22.0 m above the ground. The collision between the sandbag and the ground lasts fo

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

F = 7,916,955.0N

Explanation:

According to newtons second law

Force = mass * acceleration

Given

mass = 52.0kg

distance S = 22.0m

time t = 17.0 ms = 0.017s

We need to get the acceleration first using the formula;

S = ut+ 1/2at²

22 = 0 + 1/2 a(0.017²)

22 = 0.0001445a

a = 22/0.0001445

a = 152,249.13m/s²

The magnitude of the average force exerted will be;

F = ma

F = 52 * 152,249.13

F = 7,916,955.0N

2200 kg semi truck driving down the highway has lost control. The truck rolls across the median and into oncoming traffic. The t

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.

Explanation:

In this exercise we see a case of an entirely inellastic collision between the semi truck and the car, which can be described by the following equation derived from Principle of Linear Momentum Conservation: (We assume that velocity oriented northwards is positive)

$m_{S}\cdot v_{S}+m_{C}\cdot v_{C} = (m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v$ (1)

Where:

$m_{S}$ , $m_{C}$ - Masses of the semi truck and the car, measured in kilograms.

$v_{S}$ , $v_{C}$ - Initial velocities of the semi truck and the car, measured in meters per second.

$v$ - Final speed of the system after collision, measured in meters per second.

If we know that $m_{S} = 2200\,kg$ , $m_{C} = 2000\,kg$ , $v_{C} = 45\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $v = -15\,\frac{m}{s}$ , then the initial velocity of the semi truck is:
