An airplane touches down on the runway with a speed of 70 m/s2. Determine the airplane after each second of its deceleration.
ivann1987 [24]
<span>vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a*d
---
vf = velocity final
vi = velocity initial
a = acceleration
d = distance
---
since the airplane is decelerating to zero, vf = 0
---
0 = 55*55 + 2*(-2.5)*d
d = (-55*55)/(2*(-2.5))
d = 605 meters

A stone is thrown vertically upwards with a speed of 30.0 m/s.
matrenka [14]

a)

Y₀ = initial position of the stone at the time of launch = 0 m

Y = final position of stone = 20.0 meters

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

v₀ = initial speed of stone at the time of launch = 30.0 m/s

v = final speed = ?

Using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a (Y - Y₀)

inserting the values

v² = 30² + 2 (- 9.8) (20 - 0)

v = 22.5 m/s


b)

Y₀ = initial position of the stone at the time of launch = 0 m

Y = maximum height gained

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

v₀ = initial speed of stone at the time of launch = 30.0 m/s

v = final speed = 0 m/s

Using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a (Y - Y₀)

inserting the values

0² = 30² + 2 (- 9.8) (Y - 0)

Y = 46 m

A 4.0-m-diameter playground merry-go-round, with a moment of inertia of
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

7.1 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

d = diameter of merry-go-round = 4 m

r = radius of merry-go-round = \frac{d}{2} =  \frac{4}{2} = 2 m

I = moment of inertia = 500 kgm²

w_{i} = angular velocity of merry-go-round before ryan jumps = 2.0 rad/s

w_{f} = angular velocity of merry-go-round after ryan jumps = 0 rad/s

v = velocity of ryan before jumping onto the merry-go-round

m = mass of ryan = 70 kg

Using conservation of angular momentum

Iw_{i} - m v r = (I + mr^{2})w_{f}

(500)(2.0) - (70) v (2) = (I + mr^{2})(0)

1000 = 140 v

v = 7.1 ms⁻¹

Your Lead Teaching Assistant is initially seated on the top of a hemispherical ice mound of radius R = 30 m. Approximate the ice
saw5 [17]

Answer:

<em>Height = 5.65 km</em>

Explanation:

3\pi r^2 is the circumference or we can say measures the boundary of hemisphere of friction-less ice that he is sitting on.

So, the height will be = 2 x 3.14 x (30)^2 = 5654.7 m = 5.65 km

a 5.0 kg ball is dropped from a 2.5 m high window. what is the velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground?
julsineya [31]

Answer:

Approximately 7.0\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}.

Assumption: the ball dropped with no initial velocity, and that the air resistance on this ball is negligible.

Explanation:

Assume the air resistance on the ball is negligible. Because of gravity, the ball should accelerate downwards at a constant g = 9.81 \; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} near the surface of the earth.

For an object that is accelerating constantly,

v^2 - u^2 = 2\, a \, x,

where

  • u is the initial velocity of the object,
  • v is the final velocity of the object.
  • a is its acceleration, and
  • x is its displacement.

In this case, x is the same as the change in the ball's height: x = 2.5\; \rm m. By assumption, this ball was dropped with no initial velocity. As a result, u = 0. Since the ball is accelerating due to gravity, a = 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}.

v^2 - u^2 = 2\, g \cdot h.

In this case, v would be the velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground. Solve for

v^2 = 2\, a\, x + u^2.

\begin{aligned}v &= \sqrt{2\, a\, x + u^2} \\ &= \sqrt{2\times 9.81 \times 2.5 + 0} \\ &\approx 7.0\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}\end{aligned}.
