Answer:
6.79 m/s
Explanation:
By applying the principle of conservation of momentum.
The total momentum = MV - mv = 0 (since the squid is beginning at rest)
the mass of the squid (M) in absence of water in its cavity = (6.5 - 1.75) kg
= 4.75 kg
speed of the squid (V) = 2.5 m/s
mass of the water expelled (m) = 1.75 kg
speed of the water (v) = ???
∴
4.75 × 2.5 = 1.75 × v
v = 6.79 m/s
The work done by Joe is 0 J.
<u>Explanation</u>:
When a force is applied to an object, there will be a movement because of the applied force to a certain distance. This transfer of energy when a force is applied to an object that tends to move the object is known as work done.
The energy is transferred from one state to another and the stored energy is equal to the work done.
W = F . D
where F represents the force in newton,
D represents the distance or displacement of an object.
Force = 0 N, D = 20 cm = 0.20 m
W = 0 0.20 = 0 J.
Hence the work done by Joe is 0 J.
Answer:
a) 52.915 m
b) The vertical velocity is approximately 21.092 m/s
The resultant velocity is approximately 26.5 m/s
Explanation:
a) The height of the window in the house from which the water was thrown = 15 m
The speed of the stream of water thrown = 20 m/s
The angle at which the water was thrown = 37° over the horizontal
The acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/s²
a) The distance from the base of the house at which the water will fall is given as follows;
y = y₀ + u·t·sin(θ) + 1/2·g·t²
Where;
y = The vertical height reached
u = The initial velocity
t = Time of flight
From the point the steam of water is thrown, we get;
y₀ = 15 m
Therefore;
y = 15 + 20 × t × sin(37°) - 1/2 × 10 × t²
y = 15 + 20 × t × sin(37°) - 5 × t²
When y = 0, Ground level, we get
0 = 15 + 20 × t × sin(37°) - 5 × t²
5·t² - 20×sin(37°)×t -15 = 0
∴ t = (20 ×sin(37°) ± √((-20 × ·sin(37°))² - 4 × (5) × (-15)))/(2 × 5)
t ≈ 3.3128302, or t ≈ 0.906
Therefore, the time of flight of the water, t ≈ 3.3128302 seconds
The distance from the base of the house at which the water will fall = The horizontal distance travelled by the water, x
x = u·cos(θ)×t
∴ x = 20 × cos(37°) × 3.3128302 ≈ 52.915
The distance from the base of the house at which the water will fall = x ≈ 52.915 m
b) The velocity at which the water will reach the ground, 'v', is given as follows;
The vertical velocity, = u·sin(θ)·t - g·t
At the ground, t ≈ 3.3128302 seconds
∴ = 20 × sin(37) - 10 × 3.3128302 ≈ -21.092
The vertical velocity at which the water will reach the ground, ≈ 21.092 m/s (downwards)
The resultant velocity, v = √(² + vₓ²)
∴ v = √(21.092² + (0 × cos(37°))²) ≈ 26.5
The resultant velocity at which the water will reach the ground, v ≈ 26.5 m/s.
