Machines makes work easier by increasing the amount of force that is applied, and changing the direction in which the force is applied !! Hope it helped (p.s. I had this same question)
v = initial velocity of launch of the stone = 12 m/s
θ = angle of the velocity from the horizontal = 30
Consider the motion of the stone along the vertical direction taking upward direction as positive and down direction as negative.
v₀ = initial velocity along vertical direction = v Sinθ = 12 Sin30 = 6 m/s
a = acceleration of the stone = - 9.8 m/s²
t = time of travel = 4.8 s
Y = vertical displacement of stone = vertical height of the cliff = ?
using the kinematics equation
Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²
inserting the values
Y = 6 (4.8) + (0.5) (- 9.8) (4.8)²
Y = - 84.1 m
hence the height of the cliff comes out to be 84.1 m
Linear momentum has to be conserved. It was zero before the thread eas burned ... when nothing was moving ... so the momentum of the masses moving in opposite directions has to add up to zero. ... Momentum = mass times speed. ... In one direction, you have 5 kg times 1/5 m/s= 1 kg-m/s. ... We need 1 kg-m/s in the other direction. ... 7 kg times speed = 1 kg-m/s. ... Can you finish it from here ?
Answer:
Ф = 28.9°
Explanation:
given:
radius (r) = 117m
velocity (v) = 25.1 m/s
required: angle Ф
Ф = inv tan (v² / (r * g)) we know that g = 9.8
Ф = inv tan (25.1² / (117 * 9.8))
Ф = 28.9°
