Answer:

30 m/s

Explanation:

Vf = ?

Vi = 0 m/s

a = 20 m/s^2

t = 1.5 s

Plug those values into the equation: Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 0 + (20)(1.5)

Vf = 30 m/s

When a mass M hangs from a vertical wire of length L, waves travel on this wire with a speed V. What will be the speed of these
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

a)  v = 0.7071 v₀, b) v= v₀, c)  v = 0.577 v₀, d)   v = 1.41 v₀, e)  v = 0.447 v₀

Explanation:

The speed of a wave along an eta string given by the expression

          v = \sqrt{ \frac{T}{ \mu } }

where T is the tension of the string and μ is linear density

a) the mass of the cable is double

          m = 2m₀

let's find the new linear density

          μ = m / l

iinitial density

          μ₀ = m₀ / l

final density

          μ = 2m₀ / lo

          μ = 2 μ₀

we substitute in the equation for the velocity

initial            v₀ = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ \mu_o} }

with the new dough

                    v = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ 2 \mu_o} }

                    v = 1 /√2  \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ \mu_o} }

                    v = 1 /√2 v₀

                    v = 0.7071 v₀

b) we double the length of the cable

If the cable also increases its mass, the relationship is maintained

              μ = μ₀

   in this case the speed does not change

c) the cable l = l₀ and m = 3m₀

we look for the density

           μ = 3m₀ / l₀

           μ = 3 m₀/l₀

           μ = 3 μ₀

            v = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ 3 \mu_o} }

            v = 1 /√3  v₀

            v = 0.577 v₀

d) l = 2l₀

            μ = m₀ / 2l₀

            μ = μ₀/ 2

           v = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ \frac{ \mu_o}{2} } }

           v = √2 v₀

            v = 1.41 v₀

e) m = 10m₀ and l = 2l₀

we look for the density

             μ = 10 m₀/2l₀

             μ = 5 μ₀

we look for speed

             v = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{5 \mu_o} }

             v = 1 /√5  v₀

             v = 0.447 v₀

At a certain elevation, the pilot of a balloon has a mass of 120 lb and a weight of 119 lbf. What is the local acceleration of g
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

31.905 ft/s²

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the pilot, m = 120 lb

Weight of the pilot, w = 119 lbf

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 32.05 ft/s²

Local acceleration of gravity of found by using the relation

Weight in lbf = Mass in lb * (local acceleration/32.174 lbft/s²)

119 = 120 * a/32. 174

119 * 32.174 = 120a

a = 3828.706 / 120

a = 31.905 ft/s²

Therefore, the local acceleration due to gravity at that elevation is 31.905 ft/s²

A 5kg bag falls a verticle height of 10m before hitting the ground.
g100num [7]

Answer:

u = 7m {s}^{ - 1}

Explanation:

We know that when we don't have air friction on a free fall the mechanical energy (I will symbololize it with ME) is equal everywhere. So we have:

me(1) = me(2)

where me(1) is mechanical energy while on h=10m

and me(2) is mechanical energy while on the ground

Ek(1) + DynamicE(1) = Ek(2) + DynamicE(2)

Ek(1) is equal to zero since an object that has reached its max height has a speed equal to zero.

DynamicE(2) is equal to zero since it's touching the ground

Using that info we have

m \times g \times h   =   \frac{1}{2}  \times m \times u {}^{2} \\

we divide both sides of the equation with mass to make the math easier.

9.8 \times 10 =  \frac{1}{2}  \times u {}^{2}  \\  \frac{98}{2}  = u {}^{2}  \\ u { }^{2} = 49 \\ u = 7

This question has several parts that must be completed sequentially. If you skip a part of the question, you will not receive an
nalin [4]

Answer:

The maximum volume is 1417.87 inch^3

Explanation:

<u>Optimization Using Derivatives</u>

We have a 24x30 inch piece of metal and we need to make a rectangular box by cutting a square from each corner of the piece and bending up the sides. The width of the piece is 24 inches and its length is 30 inches

When we cut a square of each corner of side x, the base of the box (after bending up the sides) will be (24-2x) and (30-2x), width and length respectively. The volume of the box is

V=(24-2x)(30-2x)x

Operating

V=4x^3-108x^2+720x

To find the maximum value of V, we compute the first derivative and equate it to zero

V'=12x^2-216x+720=0

Simplifying by 12

x^2-18x+60=0

Completing squares

x^2-18x+81-81+60=0

(x-9)^2=21

We have two values for x

x=9+\sqrt{21}=13.58\ inch

x=9-\sqrt{21}=4.42\ inch

The first value is not feasible because it will produce a negative width (24-2(13.58))=-6.16

We'll keep only the solution

x=4.42\ inch

The width is

w=(24-2(4.42))=15.16\ inch

The length is

l=(30-2(4.42))=21.16\ inch

And the height

x=4.42\ inch

The maximum volume is

V=(15.16)(21.16)(4.42)=1417.87\ inch^3
