Answer:

The bow bends when the archer pulls back on the string. The bow can bend because it is made of an elastic material. ... Releasing the string thrusts the arrow forward with the elastic force of the bow. The elastic potential energy of the bow is converted to the kinetic energy of the arrow.2 Jan 2014

A jet plane flying 600 m/s experiences an acceleration of 4g when pulling out of the dive. What is the radius of curvature of th

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

91.84 m/s²

Explanation:

velocity, v = 600 m/s

acceleration, a = 4 g = 4 x 9.8 = 39.2 m/s^2

Let the radius of the loop is r.

he experiences a centripetal force.

centripetal acceleration,

a = v² / r

39.2 x r = 600 x 600

r = 3600 / 39.2

r = 91.84 m/s²

Thus, the radius of the loop is 91.84 m/s².

A bowling ball with a momentum of 18kg-m/s strikes a stationary bowling pin. After the collision, the ball has a momentum of 13k

Veronika [31]

Answer:

$14.98\ \text{kg m/s}$

$45.26^{\circ}$

Explanation:

$P_1$ = Initial momentum of the pin = 13 kg m/s

$P_i$ = Initial momentum of the ball = 18 kg m/s

$P_2$ = Momentum of the ball after hit

$55^{\circ}$ = Angle ball makes with the horizontal after hitting the pin

$\theta$ = Angle the pin makes with the horizotal after getting hit by the ball

Momentum in the x direction

$P_i=P_1\cos55^{\circ}+P_2\cos\theta\\\Rightarrow P_2\cos\theta=P_i-P_1\cos55^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow P_2\cos\theta=18-13\cos55^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow P_2\cos\theta=10.54\ \text{kg m/s}$

Momentum in the y direction

$P_1\sin55=P_2\sin\theta\\\Rightarrow P_2\sin\theta=13\sin55^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow P_2\sin\theta=10.64\ \text{kg m/s}$

$(P_2\cos\theta)^2+(P_2\sin\theta)^2=P_2^2\\\Rightarrow P_2=\sqrt{10.54^2+10.64^2}\\\Rightarrow P_2=14.98\ \text{kg m/s}$

The pin's resultant velocity is $14.98\ \text{kg m/s}$

$P_2\sin\theta=10.64\\\Rightarrow \theta=sin^{-1}\dfrac{10.64}{14.98}\\\Rightarrow \theta=45.26^{\circ}$

The pin's resultant direction is $45.26^{\circ}$ below the horizontal or to the right.
