A 50.0-kg projectile is fired at an angle of 30 degrees above thehorizontal with an initial speed of 1.20 x 102 m/s fromthe top

of a cliff 142m above level ground, where the ground istaken to be y=0. a.) What is the initial total mechanicalenergy of the projectile? b.) Suppose the projectile istraveling 85.0 m/s at its maximum height of y=427m. How muchwork has been done on the projectile by air friction? c.)What is the speed of the projectile immediately before it hits theground if air friction does one and a half times as much work onthe projectile when it is going down as it did when it was goingup?

Answer:

a)  Em₀ = 42.96 104 J , b)   W_{fr} = -2.49 105 J , c)  vf = 3.75 m / s

Explanation:

The mechanical energy of a body is the sum of its kinetic energy plus the potential energies it has

        Em = K + U

a) Let's look for the initial mechanical energy

      Em₀ = K + U

      Em₀ = ½ m v2 + mg and

      Em₀ = ½ 50.0 (1.20 102) 2 + 50 9.8 142

      Em₀ = 36 104 + 6.96 104

      Em₀ = 42.96 104 J

b) The work of the friction force is equal to the change in the mechanical energy of the body

    W_{fr} = Em₂ -Em₀

     Em₂ = K + U

     Em₂ = ½ m v₂² + m g y₂

     Em₂ = ½ 50 85 2 + 50 9.8 427

     Em₂ = 180.625 + 2.09 105

     Em₂ = 1,806 105 J

     W_{fr} = Em₂ -Em₀

     W_{fr} = 1,806 105 - 4,296 105

     W_{fr} = -2.49 105 J

The negative sign indicates that the work that force and displacement have opposite directions

c) In this case the work of the friction going up is already calculated in part b and the work of the friction going down would be 1.5 that job

We have that the work of friction is equal to the change of mechanical energy

       W_{fr} = ΔEm

       W_{fr} = Emf - Emo

       -1.5 2.49 10⁵ = ½ m vf² - 42.96 10⁴

       ½ m vf² = -1.5 2.49 10⁵ + 4.296 10⁵

       ½ 50.0 vf² = 0.561

       vf = √ 0.561 25

      vf = 3.75 m / s

The driver of a car slams on the brakes, causing the car to slow down at a rate of 17ft/s2 as the car skids 285ft to a stop.
ozzi

1) 5.79 s

2) 98.4 ft/s

Explanation:

1)

The motion of the car is a uniformly accelerated motion (it means it travels with constant acceleration), so we can find the time it takes for the car to stop by using the following suvat equation:

s=vt-\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the distance travelled

v is the final velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration of the car

In this problem we have:

s = 285 ft is the distance travelled

a=-17 ft/s^2 is the acceleration of the car (negative since the car is slowing down)

v = 0 ft/s is the final velocity of the car, since it comes to a stop

Solving for t, we find:

t=\sqrt{\frac{-2s}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{-2(285)}{-17}}=5.79 s

2)

The initial speed of the car can be found by using another suvat equation, namely:

v=u+at

where

v is the final speed

u is the initial speed

a is the acceleration

t is the time

In this problem, we have:

v = 0 is the final speed of the car

a=-17 ft/s^2 is the acceleration of the car (negative since the car is slowing down)

t = 5.79 s is the total time of motion (found in part 1)

Therefore, the initial speed of the car is:

u=v-at=0-(-17)(5.79)=98.4 ft/s

Masses m and 2m approach each other at the same speed v and collide head-on. Find the final speed of mass 2m, if mass rebounds a
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

<em>The rebound speed of the mass 2m is v/2</em>

Explanation:

I will designate the two masses as body A and body B.

mass of body A = m

mass of body B = 2m

velocity of body A = v

velocity of body B = -v    since they both move in opposite direction

final speed of mass A = 2v

final speed of body B = ?

The equation of conservation of momentum for this system is

mv - 2mv = -2mv + x

where x is the final momentum of the mass B

x = mv - 2mv + 2mv

x = mv

to get the speed, we divide the momentum by the mass of mass B

x/2m = v = mv/2m

speed of mass B = <em>v/2</em>
