Answer:

The mass of the object is 5.045 lbm.

Explanation:

Given;

kinetic energy of the object, K.E = 1558.71 ft.lbf

velocity of the object, V = 141 ft/s

The kinetic energy of the object is calculated as;

K.E = \frac{1}{2} mV^2\\\\mV^2 = 2K.E\\\\m = \frac{2K.E}{V^2} \\\\1 \ lbf = 32.174 \ lbm.ft/s^2\\\\m  = \frac{2 \ \times \ 1558.71 \ ft.lbf \ \times \ 32.174 \ lbm.ft/s^2 }{(141 \ ft/s)2 \ \  \times \ \ \ \ 1   \ lbf\ }

m  = \frac{(2 \ \times \ 1558.71  \ \times \ 32.174) \ lbm.ft^2/s^2 }{(141 )^2\ ft^2/s^2 }\\\\m = \frac{(2 \ \times \ 1558.71  \ \times \ 32.174) \ lbm }{(141 )^2 }\\\\m = 5.045 \ lbm

Therefore, the mass of the object is 5.045 lbm.

Point charges of 21.0 μC and 47.0 μC are placed 0.500 m apart. (a) At what point (in m) along the line connecting them is the el
rewona [7]

Answer:

a) x = 0.200 m

b)E = 3.84*10^{-4} N/C

Explanation:

q_1 = 21.0\mu C

q_1 = 47.0\mu C

DISTANCE BETWEEN BOTH POINT CHARGE = 0.5 m

by relation for electric field we have following relation

E = \frac{kq}{x}^2

according to question E = 0

FROM FIGURE

x is the distance from left point charge where electric field is zero

\frac{k21}{x}^2 = \frac{k47}{0.5-x}^2

solving for x we get

\frac{0.5}{x} = 1+ \sqrt{\frac{47}{21}}

x = 0.200 m

b)electric field at half way mean x =0.25

E =\frac{k*21*10^{-6}}{0.25^2} -\frac{k*47*10^{-6}}{0.25^2}

E = 3.84*10^{-4} N/C

During a braking test, a car is brought to rest beginning from an initial speed of 60 mi/hr in a distance of 120 ft. With the sa
maw [93]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial speed u=60\ mi/hr\approx 88\ ft/s

distance traveled before coming to rest d_1=120\ ft

using equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

0-(88)^2=2\times a\times 120---1

for u_2=80\ mi/hr\approx 117.33\ ft/s

using same relation we get

0-(117.33)^2=2\times a\times (d_2)----2

divide 1 and 2 we get

(\frac{88}{117.33})^2=\frac{120}{d_2}

d_2=213.32\ ft

So a distance if 213.32 ft is required to stop the vehicle with 80 mph speed
