On a sunny day, a family decided to take sail on a nearby lake. During sailing the wind applies a force of 25N north on the sail

s of the sailboat. The
water however exerts a force of 20 N east. If the total mass of both the sailboat and the crew (family on board) is 20kg, what is the magnutude and
direction of the acceleration produced?

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

i) E = 269 [MJ]    ii)v = 116 [m/s]

Explanation:

This is a problem that encompasses the work and principle of energy conservation.

In this way, we establish the equation for the principle of conservation and energy.

i)

E_{k1}+W_{1-2}=E_{k2}\\where:\\E_{k1}= kinetic energy at moment 1\\W_{1-2}= work between moments 1 and 2.\\E_{k2}= kinetic energy at moment 2.

W_{1-2}= (F*d) - (m*g*h)\\W_{1-2}=(500000*2.5*10^3)-(40000*9.81*2.5*10^3)\\W_{1-2}= 269*10^6[J] or 269 [MJ]

At that point the speed 1 is equal to zero, since the maximum height achieved was 2.5 [km]. So this calculated work corresponds to the energy of the rocket.

Er = 269*10^6[J]

ii ) With the energy calculated at the previous point, we can calculate the speed developed.

E_{k2}=0.5*m*v^2\\269*10^6=0.5*40000*v^2\\v=\sqrt{\frac{269*10^6}{0.5*40000} }\\ v=116[m/s]

There is a 50 g sample of Ra-229. It has a half-life of 4 minutes.
Sloan [31]

Via half-life equation we have:


A_{final}=A_{initial}(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{h} }


Where the initial amount is 50 grams, half-life is 4 minutes, and time elapsed is 12 minutes.  By plugging those values in we get:

A_{final}=50(\frac{1}{2})^\frac{12}{4}=50(\frac{1}{2})^{3}=50(\frac{1}{8})=6.25g


There is 6.25 grams left of Ra-229 after 12 minutes.

AIR MASSES!!
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

A : hot and moist, maritime tropical

B: cold and dry, maritime polar

C: hot and moist , maritime tropical

D: cold and dry, continental polar

E: hot and moist , maritime tropical

F: cold and dry , maritime polar

Explanation:

Cold air is denser than warm air. The more water vapor that is in the air, the less dense the air becomes. That is why cold, dry air is much heavier than warm, humid air.

Maritime polar (mP) air masses are cool, moist, and unstable. Some maritime polar air masses originate as continental polar air masses over Asia and move westward over the Pacific, collecting warmth and moisture from the ocean. 

Maritime tropical (mT) air masses are warm, moist, and usually unstable.

In 0.60 seconds, a projectile goes from 0 to 610 m/s. What is the acceleration of the projectile?
IceJOKER [234]

Answer: a=1016.66 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Acceleration a is expressed in the following formula:

a=\frac{V_{f}-V_{o}}{t}

Where:

V_{f}=610 m/s is the final velocity of the projectile

V_{o}=0 m/s  is the initial velocity of the projectile

t=0.6 s is the time

Solving:

a=\frac{610 m/s-0 m/s}{0.6 s}

a=1016.66 m/s^{2} This is the acceleration of the projectile
