The 243000-lb space-shuttle orbiter touches down at about 236 mi/hr. The drag chute is deployed at 189 mi/hr, the wheel brakes a

re applied at 101 mi/hr until wheelstop, and the drag chute is jettisoned at 35 mi/hr. If the drag chute results in a deceleration of -0.000200v2 (in feet per second squared when the speed v is in feet per second) and the wheel brakes cause a constant deceleration of 3.5 ft/sec2, determine the distance s traveled from 189 mi/hr to wheelstop.

Answer:

5156.37 ft

Explanation:

Given data:

weight ( W ) = 243,000 Ib

Motion of shuttle ; from 189 mi/hr to 101 mi/hr

dv/dt = -0.0002 V^2

I/v * dv/dt = -0.0002 ds

<em>Convert mi/hr to ft/s</em> ( 1 mi/hr = 1.467 ft/s)

189 mi/hr = 277.263 ft/s

101 mi/hr = 148.167 ft/s

After Integrating

In ( 148.167 / 277.263 ) = -0.0002 ( S1 - S2 )

S1 - S2 = -0.627 / -0.0002

S1 - S2 = 3135 ft/s

Now from 101 mi/hr to 35 mi/hr

dv/dt = ( - 0.0002 V^2 + 3.5 )

ds =  V*dv / ( -0.0002 v^2 - 3.5 )

given :  35 mi/hr = 51.345 ft/s

             101 mi/hr = 148.167 ft/s

Integrate

S3 - S2 = - In( 0.0002 v^2 + 3.5 ) / 0.0002 * 2 ]

            = 1644.75 ft/s

S4 - S3 = 376.62 ft/s

attached below is the remaining part of the solution

Total distance travelled = 3135 + 1644.75 + 376.62 = 5156.37 ft

Assume that block A which has a mass of 30 kg is being pushed to the left with a force of 75 N along a frictionless surface. Wha
Veronika [31]

Answer:

The force of friction acting on block B is approximately 26.7N.  Note: this result does not match any value from your multiple choice list. Please see comment at the end of this answer.  

Explanation:

The acting force F=75N pushes block A into acceleration to the left. Through a kinetic friction force, block B also accelerates to the left, however, the maximum of the friction force (which is unknown) makes block B accelerate by 0.5 m/s^2 slower than the block A, hence appearing it to accelerate with 0.5 m/s^2 to the right relative to the block A.

To solve this problem, start with setting up the net force equations for both block A and B:

F_{Anet} = m_A\cdot a_A = F - F_{fr}\\F_{Bnet} = m_B\cdot a_B = F_{fr}

where forces acting to the left are positive and those acting to the right are negative. The friction force F_fr in the first equation  is due to A acting on B and in the second equation due to B acting on A. They are opposite in direction but have the same magnitude (Newton's third law). We also know that B accelerates 0.5 slower than A:

a_B = a_A-0.5 \frac{m}{s^2}

Now we can solve the system of 3 equations for a_A, a_B and finally for F_fr:

30kg\cdot a_A = 75N - F_{fr}\\24kg\cdot a_B = F_{fr}\\a_B= a_A-0.5 \frac{m}{s^2}\\\implies \\a_A=\frac{87}{54}\frac{m}{s^2},\,\,\,a_B=\frac{10}{9}\frac{m}{s^2}\\F_{fr} = 24kg \cdot \frac{10}{9}\frac{m}{s^2}=\frac{80}{3}kg\frac{m}{s^2}\approx 26.7N

The force of friction acting on block B is approximately 26.7N.

This answer has been verified by multiple people and is correct for the provided values in your question. I recommend double-checking the text of your question for any typos and letting us know in the comments section.

Which types of numbers does scientific notation best describe?
Travka [436]
The correct answer is
<span>c) very small and very large

Let's see this with a few examples:
1) if we have a very small number, such as
</span>0.0000000001
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using the scientific notation:
</span>1\cdot 10^{-10}
<span>2) Similarly, if we have a very large number:
</span>10000000000
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using again the scientific notation:
</span>1 \cdot 10^{10}<span>
</span>
