A hot–air balloon is moving at a speed of 10.0 meters/second in the +x–direction. The balloonist throws a brass ball in the +x–d

irection at a velocity of +4 meters/second with respect to himself. If the ball lands after 30 seconds, about how far does it land horizontally from the point at which it was released?
A. 120 meters
B. 125 meters
C. 300 meters
D. 420 meters

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

The balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

Velocity of air balloon along +X axis =10 m/s

velocity of ball=4 m/s along + X axis

the velocity of balloon gets added to the velocity of ball. So the resultant velocity of the balloon=10+4 = 14 m/s

time taken= 30 s

The distance traveled is given by d= v t

d= 14 (30)

d= 420 m

Thus the balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

A yo‑yo with a mass of 0.0800 kg and a rolling radius of =2.70 cm rolls down a string with a linear acceleration of 5.70 m/s2.
N76 [4]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 0.08 kg

Radius of the path, r = 2.7 cm = 0.027 m

The linear acceleration of a yo-yo, a = 5.7 m/s²

We need to find the tension magnitude in the string and the angular acceleration magnitude of the yo‑yo.

(a) Tension :

The net force acting on the string is :

ma=mg-T

T=m(g-a)

Putting all the values,

T = 0.08(9.8-5.7)

= 0.328 N

(b) Angular acceleration,

The relation between the angular and linear acceleration is given by :

\alpha =\dfrac{a}{r}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{5.7}{0.027}\\\\=211.12\ m/s^2

(c) Moment of inertia :

The net torque acting on it is, \tau=I\alpha, I is the moment of inertia

Also, \tau=Fr

So,

I\alpha =Fr\\\\I=\dfrac{Fr}{\alpha }\\\\I=\dfrac{0.328\times 0.027}{211.12}\\\\=4.19\times 10^{-5}\ kg-m^2

Hence, this is the required solution.

The alternative to nuclear fission reactors in a nuclear fusion reactor. Explain why it is much more difficult to get a fusion r
Sliva [168]

Answer: The major challenges are as

1) understanding of the plasma: Plasma is a soup like mixture of subatomic particles of different atoms nuclei and electrons that are shattered apart by the temperature at which plasma is formed. further research is needed to understand the behavior of plasma so that it can be put to a proper use.

2) Confinement of plasma: Once we get the plasma we need to hold it so that we can obtain heat from it to drive a steam turbine but the sheer temperature of plasma is in millions of Celsius thus currently making it impossible to confine conventionally. Scientists use a loop of electric and magnetic fields to keep it in circulatory like manner so that it can be studied.

3) finally to obtain electricity from the plasma it should be stable to produce electricity. But currently to obtain pressure, temperature so that we have a sustained supply is highly difficult in technical and economical aspects.

Inertial confinement: In order to get the nuclei of atoms close enough for fusion this type of method used compression of the nuclei into highly small volumes.This is accomplished by use of lasers which are directed towards the fuel pellets that implode and travel towards other nuclei making fusion possible. It's main advantage is that it requires lesser time to initiate fusion but the disadvantage being that a large power is used to fire the lasers and the lasers should all hit the small target.

Magnetic Confinement: In this method we use a magnetic and electric fields in a properly designed space to keep the plasma in motion. In motion the nuclei of the atoms come close enough to initiate fusion.It's advantage being less power is required to start the process as compared to inertial confinement and the disadvantage being that plasma confinement is currently not properly understood.
