Answer:

500ms times 2 would be when the ball reaches the max horizontal distance.

Then to find the angle, use the formula of time to reach max height t = u sin theta / g . With t being the max height time 500ms, u being 10m/s

For initial vertical velocity just use u sin theta.

Consider a system of a cliff diver and the earth. the gravitational potential energy of the system decreases by 28,000 j as the

olga2289 [7]

The decrease in gravitational potential energy of the system is given by

$\Delta U = (mg) \Delta h$

where

m is the mass, g is the gravitational acceleration, and $\Delta h$ is the variation of height of the system.

$(mg)$ also corresponds to the weight of the diver, therefore if we rearrange the equation and we use $\Delta U=28000 J$ and $\Delta h=32.0 m$ , we can find her weight:

$mg=\frac{\Delta U}{\Delta h}=\frac{28000 J}{32 m}=875 N$

A solid object has a density of 2.85 g/cm3. According to Archimedes, what can be done to make this object float in water?

Juli2301 [7.4K]

2: It's not just the capillary action, but the pull from transpiration (the evaporation of water from the tree) that is used to pull water up from the roots.

<span>The second question needs context. Strong bonds alone won't cause tension. I don't see how adhesion is different. High vapour pressure could do it, but it's the difference in pressures that'd cause tension (and the resistance of that pressure by the surface). So, a low and high pressure would be needed. Poorly worded question :( </span>

<span>1: "Adhesion is the tendency of certain dissimilar molecules to cling together due to attractive forces." [1] </span>

<span>3: The other three answere would not work. Think of a boat. </span>

<span>3: If you push gas, it will be compressed(get smaller). If you push liquid it will push something else. Thus, liquids are good for transferring force. This is a hydraulic system.</span>

A 15 m uniform ladder weighing 500 N rests against a frictionless wall. The ladder makes a 60° angle with horizontal. (a) Find t

scoray [572]

Answer:

a) F₁ = 267.3 N, N₁ = 1300 N, b) μ = 0.324

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the rotational equilibrium condition, we have a reference system is the floor and the anticlockwise rotations as positive, in the adjoint we can see a diagram of the forces

let's use subscript 1 for the ladder and 2 for the firefighter

∑ τ = 0

-W₁ x₁ - W₂ x₂ + N₁ y = 0

N₁ = $\frac{W_1 x_1 + W_2 x_2}{y}$ (1)

the center of mass of the ladder is at its geometric center,

d = L / 2 = 15/2 = 7.5 m

cos 60 = x₁ / d₁

x₁ = d₁ cos 60

x₁ = 7.5 cos 60

x₁ = 3.75 m

for the firefighter d₂ = 4 m

cos 60 = x₂ / d₂

x₂ = d₂ cos 60

x₂ = 4 cos 60 = 2 m

for the fulcrum d₃ = 15 m

sin 60 = y / d₃

y = d₃ sin 60

y = 15 sin 60

y = 13 m

we look for the Normal by substituting in equation 1

N₂ = $\frac{500 \ 3.75 \ + 800 \ 2}{13}$

N₂ = 267.3 N

now let's use the translational equilibrium relations

X axis

F₁ - N₂ = 0

F₁ = N₂

F₁ = 267.3 N

Axis y

N₁ - W₁ -W₂ = 0

N₁ = W₁ + W₂

N₁ = 500 + 800

N₁ = 1300 N

b) for this case change the firefighter's distance d₂ = 9 m

x₂ = 9 cos 60

x₂ = 4.5 m

we substitute in 1

N₂ = \frac{500 \ 3.75 \ + 800 \ 4.5}{13}

N₂ = 421.15 N

of the translational equilibrium equation on the x-axis

fr = F₁ = N₂

fr = 421.15 N

friction force has the expression

fr = μ N

in this case the reaction of the Earth to the support of the ladder is N1 = 1300N

μ = fr / N₁

μ = 421.15 / 1300

μ = 0.324

A rock with a mass of 540 g in air is found to have an apparent mass of 342 g when submerged in water. (a) What mass of water is

AleksandrR [38]

(a) 198 g

When the rock is submerged into the water, there are two forces acting on the rock:

- its weight, equal to $W=mg$ (m=mass, g=acceleration of gravity), downward

- the buoyant force, equal to $B=m_w g$ ( $m_w$ =mass of water displaced), upward

So the resultant force, which is the apparent weight of the rock (W'), is

$W'=W-B$

which can be rewritten as

$m'g = mg-m_w g$

where m' is the apparent mass of the rock. Using:

m = 540 g

m' = 342 g

we find the mass of water displaced

$m_w = m-m'=540 g-342 g=198 g$

(b) $1.98\cdot 10^{-4} m^3$

If the rock is completely submerged, the volume of the rock corresponds to the volume of water displaced.

The volume of water displaced is given by

$V_w = \frac{m_w}{\rho_w}$

where

$m_w = 198 g = 0.198 kg$ is the mass of the water displaced

$\rho_w = 1000 kg/m^3$ is the density of the water

Substituting,

$V_w = \frac{0.198}{1000}=1.98\cdot 10^{-4} m^3$

And so this is also the volume of the rock.

(c) $2727 kg/m^3$

The average density of the rock is given by

$\rho = \frac{m}{V}$

where

m = 540 g = 0.540 kg is the mass of the rock

$V=1.98\cdot 10^{-4} m^3$ is its volume

Substituting into the equation, we find

$\rho = \frac{0.540 kg}{1.98\cdot 10^{-4}}=2727 kg/m^3$
