Answer:

Approximately 281.25\; \rm m. (Assuming that the drag on this ball is negligible, and that g = 10\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}.)

Explanation:

Assume that the drag (air friction) on this ball is negligible. Motion of this ball during the descent:

  • Horizontal: no acceleration, velocity is constant (at v(\text{horizontal}) is constant throughout the descent.)
  • Vertical: constant downward acceleration at g = 10\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}, starting at 0\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}.

The horizontal velocity of this ball is constant during the descent. The horizontal distance that the ball has travelled during the descent is also given: x(\text{horizontal}) = 30\; \rm m. Combine these two quantities to find the duration of this descent:

\begin{aligned}t &= \frac{x(\text{horizontal})}{v(\text{horizontal})} \\ &= \frac{30\; \rm m}{4\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}} = 7.5\; \rm s\end{aligned}.

In other words, the ball in this question start at a vertical velocity of u = 0\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}, accelerated downwards at g = 10\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}, and reached the ground after t = 7.5\; \rm s.

Apply the SUVAT equation \displaystyle x(\text{vertical}) = -\frac{1}{2}\, g \cdot t^{2} + v_0\cdot t to find the vertical displacement of this ball.

\begin{aligned}& x(\text{vertical}) \\[0.5em] &= -\frac{1}{2}\, g \cdot t^{2} + v_0\cdot t\\[0.5em] &= - \frac{1}{2} \times 10\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} \times (7.5\; \rm s)^{2} \\ & \quad \quad + 0\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1} \times 7.5\; s \\[0.5em] &= -281.25\; \rm m\end{aligned}.

In other words, the ball is 281.25\; \rm m below where it was before the descent (hence the negative sign in front of the number.) The height of this cliff would be 281.25\; \rm m\!.

A bicyclist of mass 60kg supplies 340W of power while riding into a 5 m/s head wind. The frontal area of the cyclist and bicycle
NikAS [45]

Answer:

87.1 mph

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass,m=60 kg

Power,P=340 W

Speed,v=5 m/s

Area,A=0.344 m^2

Drag coefficient,C_d=0.88

Coefficient of rolling resistance,\mu_r=0.007

Friction force,f=\mu_rmg=0.007\times 60\times 9.8=4.1 N

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Let speed of cyclist=v'

Drag force,F_d=\frac{1}{2}\rho_{air}AC_dv^2

Density of air,\rho_{air}=1.225 kg/m^3

F_d=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.225\times 0.344\times 0.88(5)^2=4.635N

Power,P=(F_d+f)\times v'

340=(4.1+4.635) v'=8.735v'

v'=\frac{340}{8.735}=38.9m/s

v'=87.1 mph

1 m=0.00062137 miles

1 hour=3600 s

What is the magnite of the net displacement of the mouse?
agasfer [191]

Complete Question

A field mouse trying to escape a hawk runs east for 5.0m, darts southeast for 3.0m, then drops 1.0m down a hole into its burrow. What is the magnitude of the net displacement of the mouse?

Answer:

The  values is  s =  7.49 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  distance it travels eastward is  x =  5.0 \ m

   The distance it travel towards the southeast  is l  =  3.0\  m

   The distance it travel towards the south is  z =  1 \  m

 

Let x-axis  be east

      y-axis  south

       z-axis into the ground

The angle made between east and south is  \theta  =  45^o

The displacement toward x-axis is

       x =  5 +  3cos(45)

       x =  7.12

 The  displacement toward the y-axis is  

     y  =  3 *  sin (45)

      y =  2.123

Now the overall displacement of the rat is mathematically evaluated as

        s =  \sqrt{7.12^2 +  2.12^2 +  1^2}

      s =  7.49 \  m

A 1.0-μm-diameter oil droplet (density 900 kg/m3) is negatively charged with the addition of 39 extra electrons. It is released
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

6.75\mu C/m^2

Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter,d=1\mu m=1\time 10^{-6} m

1\mu m=10^{-6} m

Radius,r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\times 10^{-6}=0.5 \times 10^{-6} m

Density,\rho=900kg/m^3

Total number of electrons,n=39

Charge on electron =1.6\times 10^{-19} C

Total charge=q=ne=39\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}=62.4\times 10^{-19} C

Distance,s=2mm=2\times 10^{-3} m

Mass =density\times volume=900\times \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3=900\times \frac{4}{3}\pi(0.5\times 10^{-6})^3=4.7\times 10^{-16} kg

Initial velocity,u=0

Final speed,v=4.5 m/s

v^2-u^2=2as

(4.5)^2-0=2a(2\times 10^{-3})

20.25=4a\times 10^{-3}

a=\frac{20.25}{4\times 10^{-3}}=5062.5m/s^2

Force,F=ma

qE=ma

q(\frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0})=ma

\sigma=\frac{2\epsilon_0ma}{q}=\frac{2\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 4.7\times 10^{-16}\times 5062.5}{62.4\times 10^{-19}}

\epsilon_0=8.85\times 10^{-12}

\sigma=6.75\times 10^{-6}C/m^2=6.75\mu C/m^2
