A helicopter is ascending vertically with a speed of 5.10m/s. At a height of 105m above the Earth, a package is dropped from a w

Luden [163]

Here it is given that initial speed of the package will be same as speed of the helicopter

$v_i = 5.10 m/s$

displacement of the package as it is dropped on ground

$d = -105 m$

acceleration is due to gravity

$a = -9.8 m/s^2$

now by kinematics

$y = v* t + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

$-105 = 5.1 * t - \frac{1}{2}*9.8*t^2$

$4.9 t^2 - 5.1 t - 105 = 0$

by solving above equation we have

$t = 5.2 s$

so it will take 5.2 s to reach the ground

Westkost [7]

Answer:

A) B = 24 ft

B) H = 24.08 ft

C) M.A = 12.04

D) P = 13.7 lb

Explanation:

Minimum allowable length of base of ramp can be found as follows:

Slope = H/B

where,

Slope = 1/12

H = Height of Ramp = 2 ft

B = Length of Base of Ramp = ?

Therefore,

1/12 = 2 ft/B

B = 2 ft * 12

B = 24 ft

The length of the slope of ramp can be found by using pythagora's theorem:

L = √H² + B²

where,

H = Perpendicular = height = 2 ft

B = Base = Length of Base of Ramp = 24 ft

L = Hypotenuse = Length of Slope of Ramp = ?

Therefore,

H = √[(2 ft)² + (24 ft)²]

H = 24.08 ft

The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is given by the following formula:

M.A = L/H

M.A = 24.08 ft/2 ft

M.A = 12.04

Another general formula for Mechanical Advantage is:

M.A = W/P

where,

W = Ideal Load = 165 lb

P = Ideal Effort Force = ?

Therefore,

12.04 = 165 lb/P

P = 165 lb/12.04

P = 13.7 lb

The voltage ???? in a simple electrical circuit is slowly decreasing as the battery wears out. The resistance ???? is slowly inc

zimovet [89]

Answer:

The change in current at $R =456 \Omega$ is $\frac{dI}{dt} = 7.032 * 10^{-5} A/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The resistance is $R = 465 \Omega$

The current is $I = 0.09A$

The change in voltage with respect to time is $\frac{dV}{dt} = - 0.03 V/s$

The change in resistance with time is $\frac{dR}{dt} = 0.03 \Omega /s$

According to ohm's law

$V = IR$

differentiating with respect to time using chain rule

$\frac{dV}{dt} = I \frac{dR}{dt} + R * \frac{dI}{dt}$

substituting value at R = 456

$-0.0327 = 0.09 * 0.03 + 456* \frac{dI}{dt}$

$\frac{dI}{dt} = 7.032 * 10^{-5} A/s$
