Answer:

The force will have to increase

Explanation:

Since Juan has upgraded from a sports car to a large truck, based on Newton's second law of motion, the force needed to keep the truck going at the same speed will have to increase.

According to Newton's second law "the force on an object is equal to the product of its mass and acceleration".

Force = mass x acceleration

A truck has a larger mass compared to a sports car.

By virtue of this, to make sure both automobiles attain the same speed, the force powering them to accelerate must be the same.

Therefore, the force from the engine must increase.

1.An elevator is ascending with constant speed of 10 m/s. A boy in the elevator throws a ball upward at 20 m/ a from a height of

laiz [17]

(a) The maximum height reached by the ball from the ground level is 75.87m

(b) The time taken for the ball to return to the elevator floor is 2.21 s

<u>The given parameters include:</u>

constant velocity of the elevator, u₁ = 10 m/s

initial velocity of the ball, u₂ = 20 m/s

height of the boy above the elevator floor, h₁ = 2 m

height of the elevator above the ground, h₂ = 28 m

To calculate:

(a) the maximum height of the projectile

total initial velocity of the projectile = 10 m/s + 20 m/s = 30 m/s (since the elevator is ascending at a constant speed)

at maximum height the final velocity of the projectile (ball), v = 0

Apply the following kinematic equation to determine the maximum height of the projectile.

$v^2 = u^2 + 2(-g)h_3\\\\where;\\\\g \ is \ the \ acceleration \ due \ to\ gravity = 9.81 \ m/s^2\\\\h_3 \ is \ maximum \ height \ reached \ by \ the \ ball \ from \ the \ point \ of \ projection\\\\0 = u^2 -2gh_3\\\\2gh_3 = u^2 \\\\h_3 = \frac{u^2}{2g} \\\\h_3 = \frac{(30)^2}{2\times 9.81} \\\\h_3 = 45.87 \ m$

The maximum height reached by the ball from the ground level (h) = height of the elevator from the ground level + height of he boy above the elevator + maximum height reached by elevator from the point of projection

h = h₁ + h₂ + h₃

h = 28 m + 2 m + 45.87 m

h = 75.87 m

(b) The time taken for the ball to return to the elevator floor

Final height of the ball above the elevator floor = 2 m + 45.87 m = 47.87 m

Apply the following kinematic equation to determine the time to return to the elevator floor.

$h = vt + \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\where;\\\\v \ is \ the \ initial \ velocity \ of \ the \ ball \ at \ the \ maximum \ height = 0\\\\h = \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\gt^2 = 2h\\\\t^2 = \frac{2h}{g} \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 47.87}{9.81}} \\\\t = 2.21 \ s$

If a steel containing 1.88 wt%C is cooled relatively slowly to room temperature, what is the expected weight fraction of pearlit

Oxana [17]

Answer:

The answer is %pearlite = 0.06%

Explanation:

according to the exercise we have that the percentage is 1.88% C, therefore, the percentage of perlite is equal to:

%pearlite = (B*C)/(A*C) = (2-1.88)/(2-0) = 0.06%

The percentage of cementite is equal to:

%cementite = (1.88-0)/(2-0) = 0.94%

A 58 g firecracker is at rest at the origin when it explodes into three pieces. The first, with mass 12 g , moves along the x ax

alexdok [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply conservation of momentum law in vector form to solve the problem .

Initial momentum = 0

momentum of 12 g piece

= .012 x 37 i since it moves along x axis .

= .444 i

momentum of 22 g

= .022 x 34 j

= .748 j

Let momentum of third piece = p

total momentum

= p + .444 i + .748 j

applying conservation law of momentum

p + .444 i + .748 j = 0

p = - .444 i - .748 j

magnitude of p

= √ ( .444² + .748² )

= .87 kg m /s

mass of third piece = 58 - ( 12 + 22 )

= 24 g = .024 kg

if v be its velocity

.024 v = .87

v = 36.25 m / s .

A complete series circuit consists of a 12.0 V battery, a 4.70 O resistor, and a switch. The internal resistance of the battery

RoseWind [281]

With the switch open, there's no current in the circuit, and therefore
no voltage drop across any of the dissipative elements (the resistor
or the battery's internal impedance). So the entire battery voltage
appears across the switch, and the voltmeter reads 12.0V .
