Answer:

Final velocity v = 4 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity u = 0 m/s

Acceleration a = 0.16 m/s²

Distance s = 50 m

Find:

Final velocity v

Computation:

Using; v² = u² + 2as

v² = (0)² + 2(0.16)(50)

v² = 16 m/s

v = 4 m/s

Final velocity v = 4 m/s

P5. A bullet with an initial velocity of 280 m/s in the x-direction penetrates an initially stationary block of mass 11 kg and e
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

the mass of the bullet is 10.5 g

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity, u₁ = 280 m/s

final velocity of the bullet, v₁ = 70 m/s

final velocity of the block, v₂ = 0.2 m/s

mass of the block, m₂ = 11 kg

initial velocity of the block, u₂ = 0

let the mass of the bullet = m₁

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for elastic collision to calculate the mass of the bullet.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁  + m₂v₂

280m₁  +  11(0)  = 70m₁  +  11 x 0.2

280m₁ = 70m₁  + 2.2

280m₁ - 70m₁  = 2.2

210m₁ = 2.2

m₁ = 2.2/210

m₁ = 0.0105 kg

m₁ = 10.5 g

Therefore, the mass of the bullet is 10.5 g

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Consider another special case in which the inclined plane is vertical (θ=π/2). In this case, for what value of m1 would the acceleration of the two blocks be equal to zero

F - Force

T = Tension

m = mass

a = acceleration

g = gravitational force

Let the  given Normal on block 2 = N

and N = m_2 g \cos \theta

and the tension in the given string is said to be T = m_2 g \sin \theta

When the acceleration a=\frac{F}{m_1}

for the said block 1.

It will definite be zero only when Force is zero , F=0.

Here by Force, F

I refer net force on block 1.

Now we know

F = m_1g-T.

It is known that if the said

\theta=\frac{\pi}{2} ,

then Tension T= m_2g [since \sin(\pi/2) = 1],

Now making "F = m_1g - m_2g"

So If we are to make Force equal to zero

F=0 => m_1g = m_2g \ or \ m_1 = m_2

Lana71 [14]

complete question:

An observer at the top of a 462-ft cliff measures the angle of depression from the top of the cliff to a point on the ground to be 5°. What is the distance from the base of the cliff to the point on the ground? Round to the nearest foot

Answer:

a ≈  5281 ft

Explanation:

The observer at the top of a 462 ft cliff  measures the angle of depression from the top of the cliff to a point on the ground to be 5°.

The angle of depression form the top of the cliff = 5°

The 5° is outside the triangle formed . To find the angle in the triangle we have to subtract 5° from 90°.  90° - 5° = 85° Note sum of an angle on a right angle is 90°.  

using SOHCAHTOA  principle we can solve for the distance from the base of the cliff to the point on the ground(a)

tan  85° = opposite / adjacent

tan 85°  = a / 462

cross multiply

462 × tan 85° = a

a = 11.4300523 × 462

a =  5280.66  ft

a ≈  5281 ft
