6 0

Answer:

5m

Explanation:

Using Pythagoras theorem,

a^2+ b^2=c^2

3^2+4^2=c^2

25=c^2

√(25)=c

5m=c

A projectile of mass 2.0 kg is fired in the air at an angle of 40.0 ° to the horizon at a speed of 50.0 m/s. At the highest poin
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

a) The fragment speeds of 0.3 kg is 33.3 m / s on the y axis

                                         0.7 kg is 109.4 ms on the x axis

b)  Y = 109.3 m

Explanation:

This is a moment and projectile launch exercise.

a) Let's start by finding the initial velocity of the projectile

       sin 40 = voy / v₀

       v_{oy} = v₀ sin 40

       v_{oy} = 50.0 sin40

       v_{oy} = 32.14 m / s

       cos 40 = v₀ₓ / V₀

       v₀ₓ = v₀ cos 40

       v₀ₓ = 50.0 cos 40

       v₀ₓ = 38.3 m / s

Let us define the system as the projectile formed t all fragments, for this system the moment is conserved in each axis

Let's write the amounts

Initial mass of the projectile M = 2.0 kg

Fragment mass 1 m₁ = 1.0 kg and its velocity is vₓ = 0 and v_{y} = -10.0 m / s

Fragment mass 2 m₂ = 0.7 kg moves in the x direction

Fragment mass 3 m₃ = 0.3 kg moves up (y axis)

Moment before the break

X axis

     p₀ₓ = m v₀ₓ

Y Axis y

    p_{oy} = 0

After the break

X axis

   p_{fx} = m₂ v₂

Axis y

     p_{fy} = m₁ v₁ + m₃ v₃

Let's write the conservation of the moment and calculate

Y Axis  

     0 = m₁ v₁ + m₃ v₃

Let's clear the speed of fragment 3

     v₃ = - m₁ v₁ / m₃

     v₃ = - (-10) 1 / 0.3

     v₃ = 33.3 m / s

X axis

     M v₀ₓ = m₂ v₂

     v₂ = v₀ₓ M / m₂

     v₂ = 38.3  2 / 0.7

     v₂ = 109.4 m / s

The fragment speeds of 0.3 kg is 33.3 m / s on the y axis

                                         0.7 kg is 109.4 ms on the x axis

b) The speed of the fragment is 33.3 m / s and has a starting height of where the fragmentation occurred, let's calculate with kinematics

       v_{fy}² = v_{oy}² - 2 gy

       0 =  v_{oy}²-2gy

       y =  v_{oy}² / 2g

       y = 32.14² / 2 9.8

       y = 52.7 m

This is the height where the break occurs, which is the initial height for body movement of 0.3 kg

      v_{f}² =  v_{y}² - 2 g y₂

      0 =  v_{y}² - 2 g y₂

     y₂ =  v_{y}² / 2g

     y₂ = 33.3²/2 9.8

     y₂ = 56.58 m

Total body height is

      Y = y + y₂

      Y = 52.7 + 56.58

     Y = 109.3 m

The two forces acting on a skydiver are __________ and air _____________.
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Gravity and

Air resistance

Explanation:

The two forces acting on a skydiver are gravitational force and air resistance.

Gravitational force is a force that tends to pull all massive bodies towards the center of the earth. It works on all bodies that has mass. The larger or bigger the mass, the more the pull of gravity on the body.

Air resistance is the drag of air on a body as it passes to it. It is resisting force.

  • When a sky diver jumps out of a plane, he/she encounters both gravity and air resistance.
  • It soon balances both force and attain terminal velocity.
  • Air resistance is a frictional force that opposes motion.
  • This frictional force pushes in the opposite direction of motion
  • Motion direction is downward due to the celerity caused by gravity.

What requirement must a force acting on a object satisfy in order for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Simple harmonic motion is the movement of a body or an object to and from an equilibrium position. In a simple harmonic motion, the maximum displacement (also called the amplitude) on one side of the equilibrium position is equal to the maximum displacement.

The force acting on an object must satisfy Hooke's law for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion. The law states that the force must be directed always towards the equilibrium position and also directly proportional to the distance from this position.
