Henrietta is going off to her physics class, jogging down the sidewalk at a speed of 3.05 m/sm/s . Her husband Bruce suddenly re

alizes that she left in such a hurry that she forgot her lunch of bagels, so he runs to the window of their apartment, which is a height 40.8 mm above the street level and directly above the sidewalk, to throw them to her. Bruce throws them horizontally at a time 7.00 ss after Henrietta has passed below the window, and she catches them on the run. You can ignore air resistance.
Required:
a. With what initial speed must Bruce throw the bagels so Henrietta can catch them just before they hit the ground?
b. Where is Henrietta when she catches the bagels?

Answer:

v = 10.46 m/s

x =  30.134 m from house

Explanation:

given data

speed = 3.05 m/s

time = 7 s

height = 40.8 mm

solution

we get here first time required to fall that is t

t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 40.8}{9.8}}       ..................1

t = 2.88 s

now we take here initial speed that is v

so v × t = 3.05 × ( t+ 7)

v = \frac{3.05\times (2.88 + 7)}{2.88}

v = 10.46 m/s

and

when she catch the bagel henrietta was at

x = 3.05 × ( 2.88 + 7)

x =  30.134 m from house

A rock has a specific gravity of 2.32 and a volume of 8.64 in3 how much does it weigh
lianna [129]

Answer: 3.21 N

Specific\hspace{1mm} gravity = \frac {Density\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1mm}substance}{Density\hspace{1mm} of \hspace{1mm}water}

\Rightarrow Density \hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1mm}substance= 2.32\times 1000\hspace{1mm} kg/m^3 = 2320\hspace{1mm}kg/m^3\\ Mass =Density\times volume\\ \Rightarrow 2320 \hspace{1mm} kg/m^3\times 8.64 \hspace{1mm}in^3\times \frac {1.64\times10^{-5} m^3}{1\hspace{1mm}in^3}=0.328 kg

For weight, we will multiply by g=9.8 m/s^{-2}

weight= 0.328\times9.8=3.21\hspace{1mm}N

Hence, the rock would weigh 3.21 N.

What is the pressure drop due to the Bernoulli Effect as water goes into a 3.00-cm-diameter nozzle from a 9.00-cm-diameter fire
Marianna [84]

Answer:

The pressure and maximum height are 1.58\times10^{6}\ N/m^2 and 161.22 m respectively.

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter = 3.00 cm

Exit diameter = 9.00 cm

Flow = 40.0 L/s²

We need to calculate the pressure

Using Bernoulli effect

P_{1}+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{1}^2+\rho g h_{1}=P_{2}+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{2}^2+\rho g h_{2}

When two point are at same height so ,

P_{1}+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{1}^2=P_{2}+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{2}^2....(I)

Firstly we need to calculate the velocity

Using continuity equation

For input velocity,

Q=A_{1}v_{1}

v_{1}=\dfrac{Q}{A_{1}}

v_{1}=\dfrac{40.0\times10^{-3}}{\pi\times(1.5\times10^{-2})^2}

v_{1}=56.58\ m/s

For output velocity,

v_{2}=\dfrac{40.0\times10^{-3}}{\pi\times(4.5\times10^{-2})^2}

v_{2}=6.28\ m/s

Put the value into the formula

P_{1}-P_{2}=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho(v_{1}^2-v_{2}^2)

\Delta P=\dfrac{1}{2}\times1000\times(56.58^2-6.28^2)

\Delta P=1.58\times10^{6}\ N/m^2

(b). We need to calculate the maximum height

Using formula of height

\Delta P=\rho g h

Put the value into the formula

1.58\times10^{6}=1000\times9.8\times h

h=\dfrac{1.58\times10^{6}}{1000\times9.8}

h=161.22\ m

Hence, The pressure and maximum height are 1.58\times10^{6}\ N/m^2 and 161.22 m respectively.

A crime suspect fled the scene when police officers entered the building. How far could he run in 10 minutes if he can run 5 mil
emmainna [20.7K]
(5 mi/hr) x (1hr/60min) x (10min) = 5 x 10 / 60 = <em>5/6 mile</em>

(5/6 mile) x (1,760 yd/mile) = <em>1,466 and 2/3 yards</em>
