Answer:

Explanation:

Given

final speed v = 3015ft/s

initial speed = 0m/s

Distance S = 4146m/s

Required

Time

Using the equation of motion to get the time;

S = (v+u)/2 * t

since 1m = 3.28084ft'

4146m = 3.28084 * 4146 = 13,602.36264feet

13,602.36264 = 3015+0/2 * t

13,602.36264 = 1,507.5t

t = 13,602.36264/ 1,507.5

t = 9.023 secs

Hence it will take 9.023 seconds the rescuer die the biller to strike a target

In the Olympic shot-put event, an athlete throws the shot with an initial speed of 12.0m/s at a 40.0? angle from the horizontal.
HACTEHA [7]

A) Horizontal range: 16.34 m

B) Horizontal range: 16.38 m

C) Horizontal range: 16.34 m

D) Horizontal range: 16.07 m

E) The angle that gives the maximum range is 41.9^{\circ}

Explanation:

A)

The motion of the shot is a projectile motion, so we can analyze separately its vertical motion and its horizontal motion.

The vertical motion is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can use the following suvat equation to find the time of flight:

s=u_y t + \frac{1}{2}at^2 (1)

where

s = -1.80 m is the vertical displacement of the shot to reach the ground (negative = downward)

u_y = u sin \theta is the initial vertical velocity, where

u = 12.0 m/s is the initial speed

\theta=40.0^{\circ} is the angle of projection

So

u_y=(12.0)(sin 40.0^{\circ})=7.7 m/s

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity (downward)

Substituting the numbers, we get

-1.80 = 7.7t -4.9t^2\\4.9t^2-7.7t-1.80=0

which has two solutions:

t = -0.21 s (negative, we ignore it)

t = 1.778 s (this is the time of flight)

The horizontal motion is instead uniform, so the horizontal range is given by

d=u_x t

where

u_x = u cos \theta=(12.0)(cos 40^{\circ})=9.19 m/s is the horizontal velocity

t = 1.778 s is the time of flight

Solving, we find

d=(9.19)(1.778)=16.34 m

B)

In this second case,

\theta=42.5^{\circ}

So the vertical velocity is

u_y = u sin \theta = (12.0)(sin 42.5^{\circ})=8.1 m/s

So the equation for the vertical motion becomes

4.9t^2-8.1t-1.80=0

Solving for t, we find that the time of flight is

t = 1.851 s

The horizontal velocity is

u_x = u cos \theta = (12.0)(cos 42.5^{\circ})=8.85 m/s

So, the range of the shot is

d=u_x t = (8.85)(1.851)=16.38 m

C)

In this third case,

\theta=45^{\circ}

So the vertical velocity is

u_y = u sin \theta = (12.0)(sin 45^{\circ})=8.5 m/s

So the equation for the vertical motion becomes

4.9t^2-8.5t-1.80=0

Solving for t, we find that the time of flight is

t = 1.925 s

The horizontal velocity is

u_x = u cos \theta = (12.0)(cos 45^{\circ})=8.49 m/s

So, the range of the shot is

d=u_x t = (8.49)(1.925)=16.34 m

D)

In this 4th case,

\theta=47.5^{\circ}

So the vertical velocity is

u_y = u sin \theta = (12.0)(sin 47.5^{\circ})=8.8 m/s

So the equation for the vertical motion becomes

4.9t^2-8.8t-1.80=0

Solving for t, we find that the time of flight is

t = 1.981 s

The horizontal velocity is

u_x = u cos \theta = (12.0)(cos 47.5^{\circ})=8.11 m/s

So, the range of the shot is

d=u_x t = (8.11)(1.981)=16.07 m

E)

From the previous parts, we see that the maximum range is obtained when the angle of releases is \theta=42.5^{\circ}.

The actual angle of release which corresponds to the maximum range can be obtained as follows:

The equation for the vertical motion can be rewritten as

s-u sin \theta t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2=0

The solutions of this quadratic equation are

t=\frac{u sin \theta \pm \sqrt{u^2 sin^2 \theta+2gs}}{-g}

This is the time of flight: so, the horizontal range is

d=u_x t = u cos \theta (\frac{u sin \theta \pm \sqrt{u^2 sin^2 \theta+2gs}}{-g})=\\=\frac{u^2}{-2g}(1+\sqrt{1+\frac{2gs}{u^2 sin^2 \theta}})sin 2\theta

It can be found that the maximum of this function is obtained when the angle is

\theta=cos^{-1}(\sqrt{\frac{2gs+u^2}{2gs+2u^2}})

Therefore in this problem, the angle which leads to the maximum range is

\theta=cos^{-1}(\sqrt{\frac{2(-9.8)(-1.80)+(12.0)^2}{2(-9.8)(-1.80)+2(12.0)^2}})=41.9^{\circ}

(a) when rebuilding her car's engine, a physics major must exert 300 n of force to insert a dry steel piston into a steel cylind
Vilka [71]
There are some missing data in the text of the problem. I've found them online:
a) coefficient of friction dry steel piston - steel cilinder: 0.3
b) coefficient of friction with oil in between the surfaces: 0.03

Solution:
a) The force F applied by the person (300 N) must be at least equal to the frictional force, given by:
F_f = \mu N
where \mu is the coefficient of friction, while N is the normal force. So we have:
F=\mu N
since we know that F=300 N and \mu=0.3, we can find N, the magnitude of the normal force:
N= \frac{F}{\mu}= \frac{300 N}{0.3}=1000 N

b) The problem is identical to that of the first part; however, this time the coefficienct of friction is \mu=0.03 due to the presence of the oil. Therefore, we have:
N= \frac{F}{\mu}= \frac{300 N}{0.03}=10000 N

Write the formula of Lever, Pulleys, wheel and axle and inclined plane.<br>​
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Lever => d_{e} = d_{r}

Pulley => G = M x n (gravitational acceleration)

Wheel and axle => M.A = Radius of the wheel/radius of the axle = R/r

Inclined plane => It can be divided into two components: Fi = Fg * sinθ - parallel to inclined plane. Fn = Fg * cosθ - perpendicular one.

The relationship between linear velocity and angular velocity
bonufazy [111]

In linear motion , when a body moves with uniform velocity , in time t , its linear displacement will be ;

S = r∅     S = vt

r∅ =  vt

r.∅ / t = v

As

v = rw

where ∅ = 90° is the angle between between radius vector r  and angular velocity w (omega )

In case ∅ ≠ 90° , we can write v = r w sin∅

It gives us v = w× r
