An object travels 20 m in 10s What is its speed?

Jack and Jill have made up since the previous HW assignment, and are now playing on a 10 meter seesaw. Jill is sitting on one en

Airida [17]

Answer: 3 m.

Explanation:

Neglecting the mass of the seesaw, in order the seesaw to be balanced, the sum of the torques created by gravity acting on both children must be 0.

As we are asked to locate Jack at some distance from the fulcrum, we can take torques regarding the fulcrum, which is located at just in the middle of the length of the seesaw.

If we choose the counterclockwise direction as positive, we can write the torque equation as follows (assuming that Jill sits at the left end of the seesaw):

mJill* 5m -mJack* d = 0

60 kg*5 m -100 kg* d =0

Solving for d:

d = 3 m.

Water from a vertical pipe emerges as a 10-cm-diameter cylinder and falls straight down 7.5 m into a bucket. The water exits the

cupoosta [38]

The diameter of the column of the water as it hits the bucket is 4.04 cm

The equation of continuity occurs in the fluid system and it asserts that the inflow and the outflow of the volume rate at the inlet and at the outlet of the system are equal.

By using the kinematics equation to determine the speed of the water in the bucket and applying the equation of continuity to estimate the diameter of the column, we have the following;

Using the kinematics equation:

$\mathbf{v_f ^2 = v_i^2 + 2gh}$

$\mathbf{v_f ^2 =(2.0)^2 + 2\times 9.8 \times 7.5}$

$\mathbf{v_f ^2 =151 m/s}$

$\mathbf{v_f =\sqrt{151 m/s}}$

$\mathbf{v_f =12.29 \ m/s}$

From the equation of continuity:

$\mathbf{A_iV_i = A_fV_f}$

$\mathbf{\pi r^2_iV_i = \pi r^2_fV_f}$

$\mathbf{ r^2_iV_i = r^2_fV_f}$

$\mathbf{ (\dfrac{10}{2})^2\times 2.0 = r_f^2 \times 12.29}$

$\mathbf{ 50 = 12.29 \times r_f^2}$

$\mathbf{ r_f= \sqrt{\dfrac{50}{12.29} }}$

$\mathbf{ V_f= 2.02 \ cm }$

Since diameter = 2r;

∴

The diameter of the column of the water is:

= 2(2.02) cm

= 4.04 cm

What is the definition of speed and the formula for calculation?

pashok25 [27]

For a body moving at a uniform velocity you can calculate the speed by dividing the distance traveled by the amount of time it took, for example one mile in 1/2 hour would give you 2 miles per hour. If the velocity is non-uniform all you can say is what the average speed is.

A baseball has a mass of 0.145 kg. A professional pitcher throws a baseball 67 mi/h, which is 30.0 m/s. What is the magnitude of

Kamila [148]

The concept of momentum tells us that it is equivalent to the product between the mass and the velocity of the object, that is to say that in general it can be written as
