An arrow is launched with an initial velocity of 7.6 m/s at an angle of 42 degrees above the horizontal. What is the horizontal

component of the velocity at the highest point of the trajectory?

Explanation:

At any point on the arrow's trajectory, the horizontal component of the velocity is the same. Therefore, the horizontal component of the velocity at the top of its trajectory is

$v_x = v_{0x} = v_0\cos{42°} = (7.6\:\text{m/s})\cos{42°}$

$\:\:\:\:\:=5.6\:\text{m/s}$

John ( body mass= 65 kg) is taking off for a long jump . Horizontal accerleration ax is 5m/s^2 and vertical acceleration ay is 0

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

(a) The horizontal ground reaction force $F_{g,x}=325\, N$

(b) The vertical ground reaction force $F_{g,y}=696\, N$

(c) The resultant ground reaction force $F_g=768\, N$

Explanation:

Given

John mass , m = 65 kg

Horizontal acceleration , $a_x= 5.0 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Vertical acceleration , $a_y=0.9 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

(a) Using Newton's 2nd law in horizontal direction

$F_{g,x}=ma_x$

=> $F_{g,x}=65\times 5\, N=325\, N$

Thus the horizontal ground reaction force $F_{g,x}=325\, N$

(b) Using Newton's 2nd law in vertical direction

$F_{g,y}-mg=ma_y$

=> $F_{g,y}=mg+ma_y$

=> $F_{g,y}=65\times (9.81+0.9)\, N=696\, N$

Thus the vertical ground reaction force $F_{g,y}=696\, N$

(c) Resultant ground reaction force is

$F_g=(F_{g,x}^{2}+F_{g,y}^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}$

=> $F_g=(325^{2}+696^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}\, N=768\, N$

=> $F_g=768\, N$

Thus the resultant ground reaction force $F_g=768\, N$

Spacetime interval: What is the interval between two events if in some given inertial reference frame the events are separated b

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

a. $\Delta s ^2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2$

b. $\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2$

c. $\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2$

Explanation:

The spacetime interval $\Delta s^2$ is given by

$\Delta s ^2 = \Delta (c t) ^ 2 - \Delta \vec{x}^2$

please, be aware this is the definition for the signature ( + - - - ), for the signature (- + + + ) the spacetime interval is given by:

$\Delta s ^2 = - \Delta (c t) ^ 2 + \Delta \vec{x}^2$ .

Lets work with the signature ( + - - - ), and, if needed in the other signature, we can multiply our interval by -1.

<h3>a.</h3>

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = (7.5 \ 10 \ m)^2$

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = 5,625 m^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (299,792,458 \frac{m}{s} \ 3 \ s)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (899,377,374 \ m)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2$

so

$\Delta s ^2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2 - 5,625 m^2$

$\Delta s ^2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2$

<h3>b.</h3>

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = (5 \ 10 \ m)^2$

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = 2,500 m^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (299,792,458 \frac{m}{s} \ 0.58 \ s)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (173,879,625.6 \ m)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2$

so

$\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2 - 2,500 m^2$

$\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2$

<h3>c.</h3>

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = (5 \ 10 \ m)^2$

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = 2,500 m^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (299,792,458 \frac{m}{s} \ 58 \ s)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (1.73879 \ 10^{10} \ m)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2$

so

$\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2 - 2,500 m^2$

$\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2$

The added weight of the sand puts more downward pressure on the wheels contacting the rails, which would cause the trains speed to decrease.
