Q9 A physics book slides off a horizontal tabletop with a speed of 1.10 m/s. It strikes the floor in 0.350s. ignore air resistan
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

(a) 0.613 m

(b) 0.385 m

(c) vₓ = 1.10 m/s, vᵧ = 3.50 m/s

v = 3.68 m/s², θ = 72.6° below the horizontal

Explanation:

(a)  Take down to be positive.

Given in the y direction:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

t = 0.350 s

Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (0.350 s) + ½ (10 m/s²) (0.350 s)²

Δy = 0.613 m

(b) Given in the x direction:

v₀ = 1.10 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 0.350 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (1.10 m/s) (0.350 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (0.350 s)²

Δx = 0.385 m

(c) Find: vₓ and vᵧ

vₓ = aₓt + v₀ₓ

vₓ = (0 m/s²) (0.350 s) + 1.10 m/s

vₓ = 1.10 m/s

vᵧ = aᵧt + v₀ᵧ

vᵧ = (10 m/s²) (0.350 s) + 0 m/s

vᵧ = 3.50 m/s

The magnitude is:

v² = vₓ² + vᵧ²

v = 3.68 m/s²

The direction is:

θ = atan(vᵧ / vₓ)

θ = 72.6° below the horizontal

Starting from your campsite you walk 3.0 km east, 6.0 km north, 1.0 km east, and then 4.0 km west. How far are you from your cam
Hatshy [7]
Think of it like a graph. You start at the origin which is (0,0).  go three to the east which now you are (3,0). Then, six to the north. Now, you are at (3,6).  1 to the east, ((4,6).  Then you go 4 to the west which is back tracking. So, you end at (0,6) which is saying you are now 6 km north from your campsite. 

Hope this helps!

An automobile tire having a temperature of
EastWind [94]

Answer:

Psm = 30.66 [Psig]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will use the ideal gas equation, recall that the ideal gas state equation is always worked with absolute values.

P * v = R * T

where:

P = pressure [Pa]

v = specific volume [m^3/kg]

R = gas constant for air = 0.287 [kJ/kg*K]

T = temperature [K]

<u>For the initial state</u>

<u />

P1 = 24 [Psi] + 14.7 = 165.47[kPa] + 101.325 = 266.8 [kPa] (absolute pressure)

T1 = -2.6 [°C] = - 2.6 + 273 = 270.4 [K] (absolute Temperature)

Therefore we can calculate the specific volume:

v1 = R*T1 / P1

v1 = (0.287 * 270.4) / 266.8

v1 = 0.29 [m^3/kg]

As there are no leaks, the mass and volume are conserved, so the volume in the initial state is equal to the volume in the final state.

V2 = 0.29 [m^3/kg], with this volume and the new temperature, we can calculate the new pressure.

T2 = 43 + 273 = 316 [K]

P2 = R*T2 / V2

P2 = (0.287 * 316) / 0.29

P2 = 312.73 [kPa]

Now calculating the manometric pressure

Psm = 312.73 -101.325 = 211.4 [kPa]

And converting this value to Psig

Psm = 30.66 [Psig]
