Couldn’t you technically make infinite speed by putting a car in a vacuum chamber? Since top speed it made by the amount of forc

e it takes until power and wind balance couldn’t you just get rid of that factor entirely?

Answer:

No

Explanation:

For infinite speed to be achevied, one must have no sink of energy to spend. The source of entropy in this example, is the tires hitting the surface, producing heat and friction. Not to mention that you'd still need fuel to start the car, and an infinite tunnel or track, which would be impossible and speed up to process of energy loss through entropy quicker.

A 3-m-high, 7-m-wide rectangular gate is hinged at the top edge and is restrained by a fixed ridge. Determine the hydrostatic fo

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The Hydrostatic force is $F = 137.2 kN$

The location of pressure center is $Z = 1.333 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height of the gate is $h = 3 \ m$

The weight of the gate is $w = 7 \ m$

The height of the water is $h_w = 2 \ m$

The density of water is $\rho_w = 1000 \ kg/m^3$

Note used $h_w$ for height of water and height of gate immersed by water since both have the same value

The area of the gate immersed in water is mathematically represented as

$A = h_w * w$

substituting values

$A = 2* 7$

$A = 14 \ m^2$

The hydrostatic force is mathematically represented as

$F = \rho_w * g * h_f * A$

Where

$h_f =h- h_w$

$h_f =3 -2$

$h_f = 1\ m$

So

$F = 1000 * 9.8 * 1 * 14$

$F = 137.2 kN$

The center of pressure is mathematically represented as

$Z = h_f + \frac{I_g}{h_f * A}$

Where $I_g$ is the moment of inertia of the gate which mathematically represented as

$I_g = \frac{w * h_w^2}{12}$

The $h_w$ is the height of gate immersed in water

$I_g = \frac{7 * 2^2 }{12}$

$I_g = 4.667\ kg m^2$

Thus

$Z = 1 + \frac{4.66}{1 * 14}$

$Z = 1.333 \ m$

A boy throws a stone straight upward with an initial speed of 15m/s. What maximum height will the stone reach before falling bac

Vitek1552 [10]

$height=\frac{velocity^2}{2gravity}\\\\
velocity=15\frac{m}{s}\\\\
g=9,8\frac{m}{s^2}\\\\height=\frac{15^2}{2*9,8}=\frac{225}{19,6}\\\\
\boxed{height=11,48\ meters}$

3. How does Earth’s rotation affect our view of stars

Elis [28]

Since we ride along with the Earth while it's doing whatever it does,
the Earth's rotation causes our eyes to constantly point in a different
direction.

If we try to keep watching one star, we have to keep changing the
direction of our eyes to keep looking at the same star.

We can't feel the Earth rotating, so our brains say that the star ... and
the sun and the moon too ... is actually moving across the sky.
