Answer:

The cliff is 12.632 meter high.

Explanation:

Each stone experiments a free fall motion, that is, an uniformly accelerated motion due to gravity. We construct the respective equations of motion for each stone:

First stone

y_{1} = y_{o,1} +v_{o,1}\cdot t +\frac{1}{2}\cdot g\cdot t^{2} (1)

Second stone

y_{2} = y_{o,2} +v_{o,2}\cdot (t-2) +\frac{1}{2}\cdot g\cdot (t-2)^{2} (2)

Where:

y_{1}, y_{2} - Final height of the first and second stone, in meters.

y_{o,1}, y_{o,2} - Initial height of the first and second stone, in meters.

v_{o,1}, v_{o,2} - Initial speed of the first and second stone, in meters per second.

t - Time, in seconds.

g - Gravitational acceleration, in meters per square second.

If we know that y_{o,1} = y_{o,2}, y_{1} = y_{2} = 0\,m, v_{o,1} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, v_{o,2} = -30\,\frac{m}{s} and g = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, then we find that time when both stones hit the ground simultaneously is:

4.904\cdot t^{2} = -30\cdot (t-2)+4.904\cdot (t-2)^{2}

4.904\cdot t^{2} = -30\cdot t + 60 +4.904\cdot (t^{2}-4\cdot t +4)

-30\cdot t +60 -19.616\cdot t +19.616 = 0

49.616\cdot t = 79.616

t = 1.605\,s

The height of the cliff is:

y_{1} = y_{o,1} +v_{o,1}\cdot t +\frac{1}{2}\cdot g\cdot t^{2}

y_{o,1} = 12.632\,m

The cliff is 12.632 meter high.

A boy in a wheelchair (total mass 54.5 kg) has speed 1.40 m/s at the crest of a slope 2.10 m high and 12.4 m long. At the bottom
babymother [125]

Answer:

630.75 j

Explanation:

from the question we have the following

total mass (m) = 54.5 kg

initial speed (Vi) = 1.4 m/s

final speed (Vf) = 6.6 m/s

frictional force (FF) = 41 N

height of slope (h) = 2.1 m

length of slope (d) = 12.4 m

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^2

work done (wd) = ?

  • we can calculate the work done by the boy in pushing the chair using the law of law of conservation of energy

wd + mgh = (0.5 mVf^2) - (0.5 mVi^2) + (FF x  d)

wd = (0.5 mVf^2) - (0.5 mVi^2) + (FF x  d) - (mgh)

where wd = work done

m = mass

h = height

g = acceleration due to gravity

FF = frictional force

d = distance

Vf and Vi = final and initial velocity

wd =  (0.5 x 54.5 x 6.9^2) - (0.5 x 54.5 x 1.4^2) + (41 x 12.4) - (54.5 X 9.8 X 2.1)            

wd = 630.75 j

Under the assumption that the beam is a rectangular cantilever beam that is free to vibrate, the theoretical first natural frequ
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

a) Δf = 0.7 n , e)   f = (15.1 ± 0.7) 10³ Hz

Explanation:

This is an error about the uncertainty or error in the calculated quantities.

Let's work all the magnitudes is the SI system

The frequency of oscillation is

        f = n / 2π L² √( E /ρ)

where n is an integer

Let's calculate the magnitude of the oscillation

       f = n / 2π (0.2335)² √ (210 10⁹/7800)

       f = n /0.34257 √ (26.923 10⁶)

       f = n /0.34257    5.1887 10³

       f = 15.1464 10³ n

a) We are asked for the uncertainty of the frequency (Df)

       Δf = | df / dL | ΔL + df /dE ΔE + df /dρ Δρ

in this case no  error is indicated in Young's modulus and density, so we will consider them exact

       ΔE = Δρ = 0

       Δf = df /dL  ΔL

       df = n / 2π   √E /ρ   | -2 / L³ | ΔL

       df = n / 2π 5.1887 10³ | 2 / 0.2335³) 0.005 10⁻³

       df = n 0.649

Absolute deviations must be given with a single significant figure

        Δf = 0.7 n

b, c) The uncertainty with the width and thickness of the canteliver is associated with the density

 

In your expression there is no specific dependency so the uncertainty should be zero

The exact equation for the natural nodes is

          f = n / 2π L² √ (E e /ρA)

where A is the area of ​​the cantilever and its thickness,

In this case, they must perform the derivatives, calculate and approximate a significant figure

        Δf = | df / dL | ΔL + df /de  Δe + df /dA  ΔA

        Δf = 0.7 n + n 2π L² √(E/ρ A) | ½  1/√e | Δe

               + n / 2π L² √(Ee /ρ) | 3/2 1√A23  |

the area is

        A = b h

        A = 24.9  3.3  10⁻⁶

        A = 82.17 10⁻⁶ m²

        DA = dA /db ΔB + dA /dh Δh

        dA = h Δb + b Δh

        dA = 3.3 10⁻³ 0.005 10⁻³ + 24.9 10⁻³ 0.005 10⁻³

        dA = (3.3 + 24.9) 0.005 10⁻⁶

        dA = 1.4 10⁻⁷ m²

let's calculate each term

         A ’= n / 2π L² √a (E/ρ A) | ½ 1 /√ e | Δe

         A ’= n/ 2π L² √ (E /ρ)      | ½ 1 / (√e/√ A) |Δe

        A ’= 15.1464 10³ n ½ 1 / [√ (24.9 10⁻³)/ √ (81.17 10⁻⁶)] 0.005 10⁻³

        A '= 0.0266  n

        A ’= 2.66 10⁻² n

       A ’’ = n / 2π L² √ (E e /ρ) | 3/2  1 /√A³ |

       A ’’ = n / 2π L² √(E /ρ) √ e | 3/2  1 /√ A³ | ΔA

       A ’’ = n 15.1464 10³ 3/2 √ (24.9 10⁻³) /√ (82.17 10⁻⁶) 3 1.4 10⁻⁷

       A ’’ = n 15.1464 1.5 1.5779 / 744.85 1.4 10⁴

       A ’’ = 6,738 10²

we write the equation of uncertainty

     Δf = n (0.649 + 2.66 10⁻² + 6.738 10²)

The uncertainty due to thickness is

    Δf = 3 10⁻² n

The uncertainty regarding the area, note that this magnitude should be measured with much greater precision, specifically the height since the errors of the width are very small

     Δf = 7 10² n

 d)    Δf = 7 10² n

e) the natural frequency n = 1

       f = (15.1 ± 0.7) 10³ Hz
