Answer:

The true velocity of wind will be 43.1 km/h.

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of motor \vec{v_{m}}= 50\hat{j}\ km/h

The resultant velocity of wind

\ver{v_{r}}=60\hat{i}\times\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}+60\hat{j}}\times\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}

Suppose, the true velocity of wind is \vec{v_{w}}.

We need to calculate the true velocity of wind

Using formula of resultant velocity

\vec{v_{m}}+\vec{v_{w}}=\vec{v_{r}}

\vec{v_{w}}=\vec{v_{r}}-\vec{v_{m}}

Where, \vec{v_{m}} = velocity of motor

\vec{v_{w}} = velocity of wind

\vec{v_{r}} = resultant velocity

Put the value into the formula

\vec{v_{w}}=\dfrac{60}{\sqrt{2}}\hat{i}+(\dfrac{60}{\sqrt{2}}-50)\hat{j}

\vec{v_{w}}=42.43\hat{i}-7.57\hat{j}

The magnitude of true velocity is,

v_{m}=\sqrt{(42.43)^2+(-7.57)^2}

v_{m}=43.0.9\approx 43.1\ km/h

Hence,  The true velocity of wind will be 43.1 km/h.

How much elastic potential energy is stored in a bungee cord with a spring constant of 10.0 N/m when the cord is stretched 2.00
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

<em> The elastic potential energy stored in the bungee cord = 20 J</em>

Explanation:

potential energy: This is the energy possessed by a body due to its position. The S.I unit of energy is Joules. The mathematical expression for elastic potential energy is given below

E = 1/2ke²................ Equation 1

Where E = elastic potential energy of the spring, k = force constant of the spring, e = extension

<em>Given: K = 10 N/m, e = 2.00 m</em>

<em>Substituting these values into Equation 1</em>

<em>E = 1/2(10)(2)²</em>

<em>E = 5×4</em>

<em>E = 20 Joules.</em>

<em>Therefore the elastic potential energy stored in the bungee cord = 20 J</em>

<em></em>

An automobile having a mass of 1,000 kg is driven into a brick wall in a safety test. The bumper behaves like a spring with cons
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

v=2.02\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Assuming no energy lost, according to the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the automobile becomes potential energy after the crash:

K=U\\\frac{mv^2}{2}=\frac{kx^2}{2}

Here m is the automobile's mass, v is the speed of the car before impact, k is the "bumper" constant and x is the compression of the bumper due to the collision. Solving for v:

v=x\sqrt\frac{k}{m}\\v=2.63*10^{-2}m\sqrt{\frac{5.9*10^6\frac{N}{m}}{10^3kg}}\\v=2.02\frac{m}{s}
