A ski gondola is connected to the top of a hill by a steel cable of length 620 m and diameter 1.5 cm. As the gondola comes to th

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

(a) 89 m/s

(b) 11000 N

Explanation:

Note that answers are given to 2 significant figures which is what we have in the values in the question.

(a) Speed is given by the ratio of distance to time. In the question, the time given was the time it took the pulse to travel the length of the cable twice. Thus, the distance travelled is twice the length of the cable.

$v=\dfrac{2\times 620 \text{ m}}{14\text{ s}} = \dfrac{1240\text{ m}}{14\text{ s}}=88.571428\ldots \text{ m/s}= 89\text{ m/s}$

(b) The tension, $T$ , is given by

$v =\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}$

where $v$ is the speed, $T$ is the tension and $\mu$ is the mass per unit length.

Hence,

$T = \mu\cdot v^{2}$

To determine $\mu$ , we need to know the mass of the cable. We use the density formula:

$\rho = \dfrac{m}{V}$

where $m$ is the mass and $V$ is the volume.

$m=\rho\cdot V$

If the length is denoted by $l$ , then

$\mu = \dfrac{m}{l} = \dfrac{\rho\cdot V}{l}$

$T = \dfrac{\rho\cdot V}{l} v^{2}$

The density of steel = 8050 kg/m3

The cable is approximately a cylinder with diameter 1.5 cm and length or height of 620 m. Its volume is

$V = \pi \dfrac{d^{2}}{4} l$

$T = \dfrac{\rho\cdot\pi d^2 l}{4l}v^2 = \dfrac{\rho\cdot\pi d^2}{4}v^2$

$T = \dfrac{8050\times\pi\times0.015^2}{4} \times 88.57^2$

$T = 11159.4186\ldots \text{ N} = 11000 \text{ N}$

0.10-kilogram model rocket’s engine is designed to deliver an impulse of 6.0 newton-seconds. If the rocket engine burns for 0.75

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

8.0 N

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the mass of a body and its acceleration. The S.I unit of Force is Newton (N).

Mathematically, Fore is expressed as

F = ma ........................... equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass, a = acceleration.

and

I = mΔv

Δv = I/m ............................ Equation 2

Where I = impulse, m = mass, Δv = change in velocity

Given: I = 6.0 Newton-seconds, m = 0.1 kilogram.

Substituting into equation 2

Δv = 6.0/0.1

Δv = 60 m/s.

But

a = Δv/t

where t = time = 0.75 seconds.

a = 60/0.75

a = 80 m/s²

Substitute the values of a and m into equation 1.

F = 0.1(80)

F = 8.0 N.

Thus the average force produced = 8.0 N

The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.81 m/s² [down]. A hockey puck was launched from the ice with a velocity of 50.0 m/

Gwar [14]

Answer:

0 m/s.

Explanation:

When an object is shot up into the air the only force acting on it is gravity while neglecting wind. As the gravity is acting on the object it keeps decelerating till its velocity becomes 0 after which it can go no further. The maximum height of the object is at this point.

So, at its maximum height the velocity of the puck will be zero.
