A ball rolls off a level table with a speed of 2.2 m/s. The table is 1.2 meters high. How far away from the base of the table do

r-ruslan [8.4K]

The base of table is "1.08856 m" far away from the ball land.

Given:

Distance travelled by ball,

S = 1.2 m

Initial velocity,

u = 0 m/s

Acceleration,

a = 9.8 m/s²

Constant speed,

2.2 m/s

As we know the formula,

→ $S = ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

By substituting the values, we get

→ $1.2=\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8t^2$

→ $1.2 = 4.9 t^2$

→ $t = \sqrt{\frac{1.2}{4.9} }$

→ $= 0.4948 \ seconds$

Let,

Horizontal distance will be "x".
Time = t

→ $x = 2.2\times t$

$= 2.2\times 0.4948$

$= 1.08856 \ m$

Thus the solution above is right.

A bullet of .05 kg is fired into a block of wood. Knowing that the bullet left the gun with a muzzle velocity of 350. m/s, and t

Lunna [17]

We know, Impulse of a body is change in momentum.

Also, the final velocity of wood block is 0 m/s.

So, Impulse = Final Momentum - Initial Momentum

Impulse = 0 - ( 0.05 kg × 350 m/s )

Impulse = - 17.5 kg m/s

Therefore, the impulse exerted by the wood on the bullet is -17.5 kg m/s .

A 20 liter cylinder of helium at a pressure of 150 atm and a temperature of 27ÁC is used to fill a balloon at 1.00 atm and 37ÁC.

djyliett [7]

<u>Answer</u>

D) 3100 Liters

<u>Explanation</u>

To get the volume if the balloon you need to use the combined equation of the low of gases.

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

(20×150)/(27+273) = (1×V₂)/(37+273)

3000/300 = V₂/310

10 = V₂/310

V₂ = 10 × 310

= 3100 Liters

Suppose the first coil of wire illustrated in the simulation is wound around the iron core 7 times. Suppose the second coil is w

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Emf induced in the coli will be equal to 26 volt

Explanation:

We have given number of turns N = 13

It is given that magnetic flux changes from 2.1 Weber to 2.7 Weber in 0.3 sec

Change in flux $d\Phi =2.7-2.1=0.6Weber$

Change in time dt = 0.3 sec

We have to find the induced emf

Induced emf is equal to $e=N\frac{d\Phi }{dt}=13\times \frac{0.6}{0.3}=26volt$

So emf induced in the coil will be equal to 6 volt

The Otto-cycle engine in a Mercedes-Benz SLK230 has a compression ratio of 8.8. What is the ideal efficiency of the engine? Use

vodomira [7]

Answer:

e=58%

Explanation:

Given data

The Otto-cycle engine in a Mercedes-Benz SLK230 has a compression ratio of 8.8.

Solution

We want to calculate the ideal efficiency of the engine when ratio of heat capacity for gas used γ=1.40. Ideal efficiency (e) of the Otto cycle given by:

$e=1-(\frac{1}{r^{Y-1} } )\\$

Substitute the given values to find efficiency e

$e=1-\frac{1}{8.8^{1.4-1} } \\e=0.58\\$

e=58%
