A uniform soda can of mass 0.140 kg is 12.0 cm tall and filled with 0.354 kg of soda (Fig. 9-41). Then small holes are drilled i

n the top and bottom (with negligi- ble loss of metal) to drain the soda. What is the height h of the com of the can and contents
a. initially
b. after the can loses all the soda?
c. What happens to h as the soda drains out?
d. If x is the height of the remaining soda at any given instant, find x when the com reaches its lowest point .

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) The centre of mass of a can filled completely with any liquid of any mass lies at the center of the can or at height h /2 where h is height of the can . So centre of mass of can of mass .140 kg of height 12 cm will lie at height 6 cm . Similarly center of mass of its content will also lie at height 6 cm that is center  point of the content .

Hence overall center of mass of can along with its content will lie at height 6 cm initially  .

b )

After the can loses all the soda , can becomes empty . Hence its center of mass will lie at its center again  .

c ) Its center of mass remains unchanged as the soda drains out completely .

d ) When soda starts draining out of the can , its lower part becomes heavier than the upper part . Hence its center of mass moves downwards . Its height is lowered . As height of soda is lowered in the can , center of mass also is lowered . It reaches its lowest point when soda in the can reaches half the height or when the can is half filled .

After that center of mass again starts rising upwards until the can is completely empty .

lara31 [8.8K]

According to the net force, the acceleration of the book is 16.47 m/s².

We need to know about force to solve this problem. According to second Newton's Law, the force applied to an object will be proportional to mass and acceleration. Hence, it can be written as

∑F = m . a

where F is force, m is mass and a is acceleration

From the question above, we know that

m = 3 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

F1 = 20 N

Find the net force

∑F = F1 + W

∑F = 20 + m . g

∑F = 20 + 3 . 9.8

∑F = 20 + 29.4

∑F = 49.4 N

Find the acceleration

∑F = m . a

49.4 = 3 . a

a = 16.47 m/s²

Chinook salmon are able to move upstream faster by jumping out of the water periodically; this behavior is called porpoising. Su
deff fn [24]

Answer:he formula for average speed is (total distance/total time)

the y-component does not matter in this problem. so do 6.26(cos45)=4.43m/s to find the x-component velocity which is constant throughout the duration of the flight. the total distance is 2L because he travels distance L twice.

the total time is ((time in water)+(time out of water)) since you dont have time you must eliminate it. to do this you need (distance)/(time)=velocity

solve for time and you get T=D/V

time in water is L/3.52 and time out of water is L/4.43

add them together and you get (4.43L+3.52L)/(15.59) = 7.95L/15.59

that value is your total time

divide you total distance (2L) by total time (7.95L/15.59) and the Ls cancel out and you get

(31.18)/(7.95) = 3.92 m/s = Average Speed

During a particular time interval, the displacement of an object is equal to zero. Must the distance traveled by this object als
Gnom [1K]

Answer: No, we can have a displacement equal to 0 while the distance traveled is different than zero.

Explanation:

Ok, let's write the definitions:

Displacement: The displacement is equal to the difference between the final position and the initial position.

Distance traveled: Total distance that you moved.

So, for example, if at t = 0s, you are in your house, then you go to the store, and then you return to your house, we have:

The displacement is equal to zero, because the initial position is your house and the final position is also your house, so the displacement is zero.

But the distance traveled is not zero, because you went from you traveled the distance from your house to the store two times.

So no, we can have a displacement equal to zero, but a distance traveled different than zero.

Formulating a Hypothesis: Part I Since the investigative question has two variables, you need to focus on each one separately. T
Taya2010 [7]

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is said to be possessed due to the motion of the object. An object at rest will have zero kinetic energy and if it is in motion it will have some kinetic energy. The mathematical expression for kinetic energy is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times m\times v^2...........(1)

Where

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of object

It is clear form expression (1) that the kinetic energy of the object is directly proportional to the mass and velocity of an object.

So, the hypothesis for the mass and kinetic energy can be written as " when the mass of the object increases, its kinetic energy also increases because there exists a direct relationship between the mass and the kinetic energy of the object".
