You are part of a searchand- rescue mission that has been called out to look for a lost explorer. You’ve found the missing explo

rer, but you're separated from him by a 200- m -high cliff and a 30- m -wide raging river. To save his life, you need to get a 5.6 kg package of emergency supplies across the river. Unfortunately, you can't throw the package hard enough to make it across. Fortunately, you happen to have a 0.70 kg rocket intended for launching flares. Improvising quickly, you attach a sharpened stick to the front of the rocket, so that it will impale itself into the package of supplies, then fire the rocket at ground level toward the supplies. What minimum speed must the rocket have just before impact in order to save the explorer’s life?

Answer:

v_r = 42.3 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the width of the river is given as

w = 30 m

now the height is given as

h = 200 m

now by kinematics we have

h = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

200 = \frac{1}[2}(9.81)t^2

t = 6.38 s

now the speed required to cross the river is given as

v = \frac{w}{t}

v = \frac{30}{6.38}

v = 4.7 m/s

now we can use momentum conservation to find the speed of rocket just before collision

m_r v_r = (m_r + m) v

0.70(v_r) = (5.6 + 0.70)(4.7)

v_r = 42.3 m/s

You drop a 0.375 kg ball from a height of 1.37 m. It hits the ground and bounces up again to a height of 0.67 m. How much energy
Radda [10]

2.57 joule energy lose in the bounce .

<u>Explanation</u>:

when ball is the height of 1.37 m from the ground  it has some gravitational potential energy with respect to hits the ground  

Formula for gravitational potential energy given by  

Potential Energy = mgh

Where ,

m = mass  

g = acceleration due to gravity  

h = height

Potential energy when ball hits the ground

m= 0.375 kg

h = 1.37 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

Potential Energy = 0.375\times9.8\times1.37

Potential Energy = 5.03 joule

Potential energy when ball bounces up again

h= 0.67 m

Potential Energy = 0.375\times0.67\times9.8

Potential Energy = 2.46 joule

Energy loss = 5.03 - 2.46 = 2.57 joule

2.57 joule energy lose in the bounce

a current of 180 mini amphere passes through a conductor for 5minute calculate the quantity of electricity transported​
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

You can calculate the total electric charge that passes through the conductor as q=It=(180\times 10^{-3})(5\times 60)= 54 C. It means that the number of electron that passes through the conductor is:

n=\frac{q}{e}=\frac{54}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}=33.75\times 10^{19}

Which evidence supports the big band theory select 3 options
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are different theories and evidence about the big bang, in this case, we're going to see three evidence.

The galaxies are moving from us, this means space is expanded, this in consequence Big Bang's explosion.

The cosmic microwave background radiation is related to the early warmth of the universe.

The observed abundance of hydrogen, helium, deuterium, lithium, these are checked from the spectra of the oldest stars.

A ship's propeller of diameter 3 m makes 10.6 revolutions in 30s. What is the angular velocity of the propeller?
ycow [4]

Answer:

The angular velocity of the propeller is 2.22 rad/s.

Explanation:

The angular velocity (ω) of the propeller is:  

\omega = \frac{\Delta \theta}{\Delta t}                              

Where:

θ: is the angular displacement = 10.6 revolutions

t: is the time = 30 s

\omega = \frac{\Delta \theta}{\Delta t} = \frac{10.6 rev*\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev}}{30 s} = 2.22 rad/s

Therefore, the angular velocity of the propeller is 2.22 rad/s.

I hope it helps you!
