a horizontal 4-cm-diameter water jet with a velocity of 18 m/s. He impinges the jet normally upon a vertical plate of mass 750 k

g. The plate rides on a nearly frictionless track and is initially stationary. When the jet strikes the plate, the plate begins to move in the direction of the jet. The water always splatters in the plane of the retreating plate. Determine (a)the acceleration of the plate when the jet first strikes it (time

Answer:

0.5429 m/s^2

Explanation:

velocity of waterjet = 18 m/s

diameter of water jet ( d ) = 4 cm = 0.04 m

mass of vertical plate(m) = 750 kg

<u>Determine the acceleration of plate when the jet first strikes ( i.e. t = 0 )</u>

first we will determine the impact force

F = β*A*V^2 ----- ( 1 )

where ; β = 1000 kg/m^3  ,  A = π/4 * d^2 , V = 18 m/s

input values into equation 1

F = 407.15 N

<em>finally determine the acceleration at t = 0 </em>

F = m*a

a = F / m =  407.15 / 750 = 0.5429 m/s^2

If a sprinter accelerates from rest to 12 m/s north , what is their change in velocity ?
natima [27]

Answer: It would be 12 m/s.

Explanation: It would be this because If you go from rest to sprint it would be 12 m/s. Also, I did this the other day.

Which spacecraft carried the first Spacelab? -Columbia -Challenger -Discovery -Atlantis
Nat2105 [25]

The Atlantis spacecraft carried the first space lab.

Answer: Option 4

<u>Explanation: </u>

The first space lab is named as ATLAS 1 which is the abbreviation of Atmospheric Laboratory for Applications and Science. It is a short space lab set up in space to observe the atmospheric changes and other scientific experiments in the outer atmosphere of Earth from space.

It contains hi-tech instruments and facilities. It was a part of Phase I of NASA’s mission to planet Earth. This helped in better understanding of Earth’s outer and inner atmosphere. So, the spacecraft used to carry the ATLAS 1 is named as Atlantis.

Answer:

Parabola

Explanation:

The motion of a projectile consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion along the horizontal (x) direction, with constant velocity v_x. In fact, there are no forces acting along this direction (if we neglect air resistance), so the acceleration is zero and the velocity is constant

- An uniformly accelerated motion along the vertical (y) direction, with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 downward (acceleration due to gravity). This acceleration is due to the force of gravity that pulls the projectile downward.

The composition of these two motions gives a parabolic trajectory. In fact, the equations of the motion along the two directions are:

x(t) = v_x t (1)

y(t) = h + v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2 (2)

Solving for t in eq.(1),

t=\frac{x}{v_x}

and substituting into (2)

y(t) = h + \frac{v_y}{v_x}x - \frac{1}{2}g(\frac{x}{v_x})^2

which is the equation of a parabola.
