How long does it take the lava bomb to reach its maximum height? Answer with three significant digits and the correct unit. A sm

all volcano's steam pressure belches vertically upward a lava bomb from an initial height of 64.4 m and with an initial upward velocity of 31.4 m/s. Remember gravity's acceleration near earth is g = 9.8 m/s2 down.

Answer:

The time taken to reach the maximum height is 3.20 seconds

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The initial height from which the volcano erupts the lava bomb = 64.4 m

The initial upward velocity of the lava bomb = 31.4 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The time it takes the lava bomb to reach its maximum height, t, is given by the following kinematic equation as follows;

v = u - g·t

Where;

v = The final velocity = 0 m/s at maximum height

u = The initial velocity = 31.4 m/s

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

t = The time taken to reach the maximum height

Substituting the values gives;

0 = 31.4 - 9.8 × t

∴ 31.4 = 9.8 × t

t = 31.4/9.8 ≈ 3.204

The time taken to reach the maximum height rounded to three significant figures = t ≈ 3.20 seconds

A 1120 kg car traveling initially with a speed of 27.40 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the back of a 9 490 kg truck m

asambeis [7]

Answer:

41.5 m/s

Explanation:

Since there are no external forces, momentum must be conserved.

Momentum P = mv.

Total momentum before the collision:

$P = m_{car}v_{car} + m_{tru}_{ck}v_{tru}_{ck} = 1120 * 27.4 + 490 * 20 = 40.488$

Total momentum after the collision:

$P = 1120 * 18 + 490 * v_{tru}_{ck} = 40.488$

solving for v:

$v_{truck} = 41.5$

Marvin uses a long copper wire with resistivity 1.68 x 10^-8 Ω⋅m and diameter 1.00 x 10^−3 m to create a solenoid that has a 3

Mazyrski [523]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Resistivity of copper wire= $\rh0=1.68\times 10^{-8}\Omega m$

Diameter=d= $1.00\times 10^{-3} m$

Radius of copper wire= $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\times 10^{-3} m$

Radius of solenoid=r' $=3 cm=3\times 10^{-2} m$

1 m=100 cm

a.Length of wire=l=11.3 m

Area of wire=A= $\pi r^2$

Where $\pi=3.14$

A= $3.14\times (\frac{1}{2}\times 10^{-3})^2$

Resistance, R= $\rho \frac{l}{A}$

Using the formula

$R=1.68\times 10^{-8}\times\frac{11.3}{3.14\times (\frac{1}{2}\times 10^{-3})^2}$

$R=0.24\Omega$

B.Length of solenoid= $2\pi r'=2\times 3.14\times 3\times 10^{-2}=0.188$ m

Number of turns= $n_0=\frac{l}{2\pi r'}=\frac{11.3}{0.188}$

$n_0$ =60

C.Potential difference,V=3 V

Current,I= $\frac{V}{R}$

I= $\frac{3}{0.24}=12.5 A$

D.Total length =0.1 m

Number of turns per unit length,n= $\frac{60}{0.1}=600$

Magnetic field along central axis inside of the solenoid,B= $\mu_0 nI$

$B=4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 12.5\times 600=9.42\times 10^{-3} T$
