The 49-g arrow is launched so that it hits and embeds in a 1.45 kg block. The block hangs from strings. After the arrow joins th

e block, they swing up so that they are 0.44 m higher than the block's starting point.
Required:

How fast was the arrow moving before it joined the block?

Answer:

the initial speed of the arrow before joining the block is 89.85 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the arrow, m₁ = 49 g = 0.049 kg

mass of block, m₂ = 1.45 kg

height reached by the arrow and the block, h = 0.44 m

The gravitational potential energy of the block and arrow system;

P.E = mgh

P.E = (1.45 + 0.049) x 9.8 x 0.44

P.E = 6.464 J

The final velocity of the system after collision is calculated as;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

6.464 = ¹/₂(1.45 + 0.049)v²

6.464 = 0.7495v²

v² = 6.464 / 0.7495

v² = 8.6244

v = √8.6244

v = 2.937 m/s

Apply principle of conservation of linear momentum to determine the initial speed of the arrow;

$P_{initial} = P_{final}\\\\mv_{arrow} + mv_{block} = (m_1 + m_2)V\\\\0.049(v) + 1.45(0) = (0.049 + 1.45)2.937\\\\0.049v = 4.4026\\\\v = \frac{4.4026}{0.049} \\\\v = 89.85 \ m/s$

Therefore, the initial speed of the arrow before joining the block is 89.85 m/s

What location on earth experiences the most change the number of daylight hours?

CaHeK987 [17]

<span>The American Southwest and northeastern Africa are the two sunniest regions of the world, with the U.S. city of Yuma, Arizona, taking the crown as the sunniest place on Earth. Yuma, located where the state borders both California and Mexico, receives more than 4,000 sunlight hours per year and averages 11 sunny hours per day over the course of the year. Following closely behind Yuma is another U.S. city -- Phoenix -- which receives an average of 3,872 sunlight hours a year. The third sunniest spot on Earth is Aswan, Egypt, which has an average of 3,863 sunlight hours every year and averages 10.6 sunny hours per day.</span>

A solenoid has a radius Rs = 14.0 cm, length L = 3.50 m, and Ns = 6500 turns. The current in the solenoid decreases at the rate

babymother [125]

Answer:

E = 58.7 V/m

Explanation:

As we know that flux linked with the coil is given as

$\phi = NBA$

here we have

$A = \pi R_s^2$

$B = \mu_o N i/L$

now we have

$\phi = N(\mu_o N i/L)(\pi R_s^2)$

now the induced EMF is rate of change in magnetic flux

$EMF = \frac{d\phi}{dt} = \mu_o N^2 \pi R_s^2 \frac{di}{dt}/L$

now for induced electric field in the coil is linked with the EMF as

$\int E. dL = EMF$

$E(2\pi r_c) = \mu_o N^2 \pi R_s^2 \frac{di}{dt}/L$

$E = \frac{\mu_o N^2 R_s^2 \frac{di}{dt}}{2 r_c L}$

$E = \frac{(4\pi \times 10^{-7})(6500^2)(0.14^2)(79)}{2(0.20)(3.50)}$

$E = 58.7 V/m$

You are standing at the top of a cliff that has a stairstep configuration. There is a vertical drop of 7 m at your feet, then a

Zolol [24]

Answer:

1. v = 6.67 m/s

2. d = 9.54 m

Explanation:

1. To find the horizontal velocity of the rock we need to use the following equation:

$d = v*t \rightarrow v = \frac{d}{t}$

<u>Where</u>:

d: is the distance traveled by the rock

t: is the time

The time can be calculated as follows:

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2d}{g}}$

<u>Where:</u>

g: is gravity = 9.8 m/s²

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2d}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*7 m}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} = 1.20 s$

Now, the horizontal velocity of the rock is:

$v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{8 m}{1.20 s} = 6.67 m/s$

Hence, the initial velocity required to barely reach the edge of the shell below you is 6.67 m/s.

2. To calculate the distance at which the projectile will land, first, we need to find the time:

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2d}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*(7 m + 3 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} = 1.43 s$

So, the distance is:

$d = v*t = 6.67 m/s*1.43 s = 9.54 m$

Therefore, the projectile will land at 9.54 m of the second cliff.

I hope it helps you!

The value of the surface area of the cylinder is equal to the value of the volume of the cylinder. Find the value of x.

max2010maxim [7]

The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula v=pi r^2h, where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height.

<h3>What Does a Cylinder's Surface Area Look Like?</h3>

The overall area or region that the surface of a cylinder covers is referred to as its surface area. A cylinder's total surface area includes both the area of the curved surface and the area of the two flat surfaces because there are two flat surfaces and one curved surface. A cylinder's surface area is measured in square units like m2, in2, cm2, yd2, etc.

<h3>What is the cylinder's total surface area?</h3>

The sum of the curved surface areas makes up the cylinder's overall surface area.

One mol of a perfect, monatomic gas expands reversibly and isothermally at 300 K from a pressure of 10 atm to a pressure of 2 at

Zolol [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

1 mole of perfect, monoatomic gas

initial Temperature $(T_i)=300 K$

$P_i=10 atm$

$P_f=2 atm$

Work done in iso-thermal process $=P_iV_iln\frac{P_i}{P_f}$

$P_i$ =initial pressure

$P_f$ =Final Pressure

$W=10\times 2.463\times ln\frac{10}{2}=39.64 J$

Since it is a iso-thermal process therefore q=w

Therefore q=39.64 J

(b)if the gas expands by the same amount again isotherm-ally and irreversibly

work done is $=P\Delta V$

$V_1=\frac{RT_1}{P_1}=\frac{1\times 0.0821\times 300}{10}=2.463 L$

$V_2=\frac{RT_2}{P_2}=\frac{1\times 0.0821\times 300}{2}=12.315 L$

$\Delta W=1\times (12.315-2.463)=9.852 J$

$\Delta q=\Delta W=9.852 J$

$\Delta U=0$
