resultant force = thrust – weight

acceleration = resultant force (newtons, N) divided by mass (kilograms, kg).

Acceleration = resultant force divided by mass

53N/0.56

=94.64 approximately 95

= 95m/s^2

This means that, every second, the speed of the rocket increases by 95m/s2

the S.I unit of Acceleration is meter per second square.

Can you use a machine to gain both force and speed at the same time? explain.

Well, It rather depends on your definition of "machine." The normal physics set of simple machines - levers, pulleys, ramps all give you increased the force at the expense of reduced speed or increased the rate at the cost of reduced force. So, no - by definition a machine is an arrangement for multiplying one while paying the cost by reducing the other. You are looking at an example of the Conservation of Energy. One of the giant rules we are pretty sure cannot be violated.<span>

A 0.500-kg object connected to a light spring with a spring constant of 20.0 N/m oscillates on a frictionless horizontal surface

givi [52]

Answer:

a = 0.009 J

b = 0.19 m/s

c = 0.005 J and 0.004 J

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the object, m = 0.5 kg

Spring constant of the spring, k = 20 N/m

Amplitude of the motion, A = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Displacement of the system, x = 2 cm = 0.02 m

a

Total energy of the system, E =

E = 1/2 * k * A²

E = 1/2 * 20 * 0.03²

E = 10 * 0.0009

E = 0.009 J

b

E = 1/2 * k * A² = 1/2 * m * v(max)²

1/2 * m * v(max)² = 0.009

1/2 * 0.5 * v(max)² = 0.009

v(max)² = 0.009 * 2/0.5

v(max)² = 0.018 / 0.5

v(max)² = 0.036

v(max) = √0.036

v(max) = 0.19 m/s

c

V = ±√[(k/m) * (A² - x²)]

V = ±√[(20/0.5) * (0.03² - 0.02²)]

V = ±√(40 * 0.0005)

V = ±√0.02

V = ±0.141 m/s

Kinetic Energy, K = 1/2 * m * v²

K = 1/2 * 0.5 * 0.141²

K = 1/4 * 0.02

K = 0.005 J

Potential Energy, P = 1/2 * k * x²

P = 1/2 * 20 * 0.02²

P = 10 * 0.0004

P = 0.004 J

A 44-cm-diameter water tank is filled with 35 cm of water. A 3.0-mm-diameter spigot at the very bottom of the tank is opened and

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The frequency $f$ = 521.59 Hz

The rate at which the frequency is changing = 186.9 Hz/s

Explanation:

Given that :

Diameter of the tank = 44 cm

Radius of the tank = $\frac{d}{2}$ = $\frac{44}{2}$ = 22 cm

Diameter of the spigot = 3.0 mm

Radius of the spigot = $\frac{d}{2}$ = $\frac{3.0}{2}$ = 1.5 mm

Diameter of the cylinder = 2.0 cm

Radius of the cylinder = $\frac{d}{2}$ = $\frac{2.0}{2}$ = 1.0 cm

Height of the cylinder = 40 cm = 0.40 m

The height of the water in the tank from the spigot = 35 cm = 0.35 m

Velocity at the top of the tank = 0 m/s

From the question given, we need to consider that the question talks about movement of fluid through an open-closed pipe; as such it obeys Bernoulli's Equation and the constant discharge condition.

The expression for Bernoulli's Equation is as follows:

$P_1+\frac{1}{2}pv_1^2+pgy_1=P_2+\frac{1}{2}pv^2_2+pgy_2$

$pgy_1=\frac{1}{2}pv^2_2 +pgy_2$

$v_2=\sqrt{2g(y_1-y_2)}$

where;

P₁ and P₂ = initial and final pressure.

v₁ and v₂ = initial and final fluid velocity

y₁ and y₂ = initial and final height

p = density

g = acceleration due to gravity

So, from our given parameters; let's replace

v₁ = 0 m/s ; y₁ = 0.35 m ; y₂ = 0 m ; g = 9.8 m/s²

∴ we have:

v₂ = $\sqrt{2*9.8*(0.35-0)}$

v₂ = $\sqrt {6.86}$

v₂ = 2.61916

v₂ ≅ 2.62 m/s

Similarly, using the expression of the continuity for water flowing through the spigot into the cylinder; we have:

v₂A₂ = v₃A₃

v₂r₂² = v₃r₃²

where;

v₂r₂ = velocity of the fluid and radius at the spigot

v₃r₃ = velocity of the fluid and radius at the cylinder

$v_3 = \frac{v_2r_2^2}{v_3^2}$

where;

v₂ = 2.62 m/s

r₂ = 1.5 mm

r₃ = 1.0 cm

we have;

v₃ = $(2.62 m/s)*$ $(\frac{1.5mm^2}{1.0mm^2} )$

v₃ = 0.0589 m/s

∴ velocity of the fluid in the cylinder = 0.0589 m/s

So, in an open-closed system we are dealing with; the frequency can be calculated by using the expression;

$f=\frac{v_s}{4(h-v_3t)}$

where;

$v_s$ = velocity of sound

h = height of the fluid

v₃ = velocity of the fluid in the cylinder

$f=\frac{343}{4(0.40-(0.0589)(0.4)}$

$f= \frac{343}{0.6576}$

$f$ = 521.59 Hz

∴ The frequency $f$ = 521.59 Hz

b)

What are the rate at which the frequency is changing (Hz/s) when the cylinder has been filling for 4.0 s?

The rate at which the frequency is changing is related to the function of time (t) and as such:

$\frac{df}{dt}= \frac{d}{dt}(\frac{v_s}{4}(h-v_3t)^{-1})$

$\frac{df}{dt}= -\frac{v_s}{4}(h-v_3t)^2(-v_3)$

$\frac{df}{dt}= \frac{v_sv_3}{4(h-v_3t)^2}$

where;

$v_s$ (velocity of sound) = 343 m/s

v₃ (velocity of the fluid in the cylinder) = 0.0589 m/s

h (height of the cylinder) = 0.40 m

t (time) = 4.0 s

Substituting our values; we have ;

$\frac{df}{dt}= \frac{343*0.0589}{4(0.4-(0.0589*4.0))^2}$

= 186.873

≅ 186.9 Hz/s

∴ The rate at which the frequency is changing = 186.9 Hz/s when the cylinder has been filling for 4.0 s.
