A parachute on a racing dragster opens and changes the speed of the car from 93 m/s to 45 m/s in a period of 5.3 seconds. What i

Answer:

-9.06\:\mathrm{m/s^2}

Explanation:

We can use the following kinematics equation to solve for acceleration:

v_f=v_f+at.

Solving for a:

45=93+5.3a,\\-48=5.3a,\\a\approx \boxed{-9.06\mathrm{m/s^2}}

*Note: Since acceleration is a vector quantity, it has both magnitude and direction. The negative sign implies that the acceleration is in the opposite direction of the racing dragster's movement.

Jill can use a force of 12.0 N to lift a single box up 5.00 m. How many of these boxes must she lift it in a minute to use 60.0
Mama L [17]

Answer:

60 boxes

Explanation:

The work done by lifting a single box is equal to the force applied (the weight of the box) times the displacement of the box:

W_1 = Fd=(12.0 N)(5.00 m)=60 J

Power is related to the work done by the equation:

P=\frac{W}{t}

where W is the work done and t is the time. In this problem, we are told that the power used is P=60.0 W, while the time taken is t = 1 min = 60 s, so the total work done must be

W=Pt=(60.0 W)(60 s)=3600 J

Therefore, the number of boxes that she has to lift in order to use this power is the total work divided by the work done in lifting each box:

N=\frac{W}{W_1}=\frac{3,600 J}{60 J}=60

A block is released from rest, at a height h, and allowed to slide down an inclined plane. There is friction on the plane. At th
GREYUIT [131]

Here the block has two work done on it

1. Work done by gravity

2. Work done by friction force

So here it start from height "h" and then again raise to height hA after compressing the spring

So work done by the gravity is given as

W_g = m_A g(h - h_A)

Now work done by the friction force is to be calculated by finding total path length because friction force is a non conservative force and its work depends on total path

W_f = -(\mu m_A g cos\theta)(\frac{h}{sin\theta} + \frac{h_A}{sin\theta})

W_f = -\mu m_A g cot\theta(h + h_A)

Total work done on it

W = m_A g(h - h_A) - \mu m_A g cot\theta(h + h_A)

So answer will be

None of these

A rock is projected from the edge of the top of a building with an initial velocity of 21.6 m/s at an angle of 37◦ above the hor
dusya [7]
<h2>Horizontal component of the rock’s velocity when it strikes the ground is 17.25 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

In horizontal direction there is no acceleration or deceleration for a rock projected at an initial angle of 37° off the ground.

So the horizontal component of velocity always remains the same.

Horizontal component of velocity is the cosine component of velocity.

Initial velocity, u = 21.6 m/s

Angle, θ = 37°

Horizontal component of velocity = u cosθ

Horizontal component of velocity = 21.6 cos37

Horizontal component of velocity = 17.25 m/s

Since the horizontal velocity is unaffected, we have

    Horizontal component of the rock’s velocity when it strikes the ground = 17.25 m/s
