An airplane traveling 919 m above the ocean at 505 m/s is to drop a case of twinkies to the victims below. How much time before being directly overhead should the box be dropped? What is the horizontal distance between the plane and the victims when the box is dropped?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 13.7 s b. 6913.5 m

Explanation:

a. How much time before being directly overhead should the box be dropped?

Since the box falls under gravity we use the equation

y = ut - 1/2gt² where y = height of plane above ocean = 919 m, u = initial vertical velocity of airplane = 0 m/s, g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s² and t = time it takes the airplane to be directly overhead.

So,

y = ut - 1/2gt²

y = 0 × t - 1/2gt²

y = 0 - 1/2gt²

y = - 1/2gt²

t² = -2y/g

t = √(-2y/g)

So, t = √(-2 × 919 m/-9.8 m/s²)

t = √(-1838 m/-9.8 m/s²)

t = √(187.551 m²/s²)

t = 13.69 s

t ≅ 13.7 s

So, the box should be dropped 13.69 s before being directly overhead.

b. What is the horizontal distance between the plane and the victims when the box is dropped?

The horizontal distance x between plane and victims, x = speed of plane × time it takes for box to drop = 505 m/s × 13.69 s = 6913.45 m ≅ 6913.5 m

Explanation:

A small cork with an excess charge of +6.0 μC (1 μC = 10 -6 C) is placed 0.12 m from another cork, which carries a charge of -4.3 μC. a. What is the magnitude of the electric force between the corks? b. Is this force attractive or repulsive? c. How many excess electrons are on the negative cork? d. How many electrons has the positive cork lost?

Answers

Answer:

a.16.125 N b. The force is an attractive force. c. 2.68 × 10¹³ electrons d. 3.75 × 10¹³ electrons

Explanation:

a. What is the magnitude of the electric force between the corks?

The electrostatic force of attraction between the two corks is given by

F = kq₁q₂/r² where k = 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C², q₁ = +6.0 μC = +6.0 × 10⁻⁶ C, q₂ = -4.3 μC = -4.3 × 10⁻⁶ C and r = distance between the corks = 0.12 m

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

F = kq₁q₂/r²

F = 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C² × +6.0 × 10⁻⁶ C × -4.3 × 10⁻⁶ C/(0.12 m)²

= -232.2 × 10⁻³ Nm²/(0.0144 m)²

= -16125 × 10⁻³ N

= -16.125 N

So, the magnitude of the force is 16.125 N

b. Is this force attractive or repulsive?

Since the direction of the force is negative, it is directed towards the positively charged cork, so the force is an attractive force.

c. How many excess electrons are on the negative cork?

Since Q = ne where Q = charge on negative cork = -4.3 μC = -4.3 × 10⁻⁶ C and n = number of excess electrons and e = electron charge = -1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

So n = Q/e = -4.3 × 10⁻⁶ C/-1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C = 2.68 × 10¹³ electrons

d. How many electrons has the positive cork lost?

We need to first find the number of excess positive charge n'

Q' = n'q where Q = charge on positive cork = + 6.0 μC = + 6.0 × 10⁻⁶ C and n = number of excess protons and q = proton charge = +1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

So n' = Q'/q = +6.0 × 10⁻⁶ C/+1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C = 3.75 × 10¹³ protons

To maintain a positive charge, the number of excess protons equals the number of electrons lost = 3.75 × 10¹³ electrons

an airplane has a maximum velocity of 160km/h in still air. calculate its maximum velocity when it travels in air with a crosswind of 30km/h

Answers

Answer:

Velocity can be directly added or subtracted.

For example, if a boat has a velocity V in still water.

And now you put the boat in a river with a current that has a velocity V'

The total velocity of the boat in that river is just the addition of these two velocities.

Velocity in the river  = V + V'

Where the only tricky part is that the velocity is a vector, so you need to take in account the directions of each vector.

In this case, we have a plane with a maximum velocity of 160km, let's assume a direction for this velocity, let's say that is in the positive x-direction.

Then we can write the velocity in the vector form:

velocity  = (vel in x-axis, vel in y-axis)

The velocity of the plane can be written as:

v = (160km/h, 0)

Now we add a crosswind of 30km/h

crosswind means that it is perpendicular, then it acts on the y-axis.

Then the total velocity of the plane will be:

velocity = (160km/h, 0) + (0, 30km/h)

velocity = (160km/h, 30km/h)

Now you can compute the total velocity of the airplane as the module of that vector.

Remember that for a vector (x, y) the module is:

mod = √(x^2 + y^2)

Then the module of the velocity is:

v = √( (160km/h)^2 + (30km/h)^2) = 162.8 km/h

A police car is driving north with a siren making a frequency of 1038 hz. Moops is driving north behind the police car at 12 m/s and hard a frequency of 959hz. How fast is the police car going?

Answers

Answer:

The police car is moving at 41.24 m/s.

Explanation:

To find the speed of the police car we need to use the Doppler equation:

[tex] f = f_{0}(\frac{v + v_{r}}{v + v_{s}}) [/tex]      

Where:

v: is the speed of the sound = 343 m/s

[tex]v_{r}[/tex]: is the speed of the receiver = 12 m/s

[tex]v_{s}[/tex]: is the speed of the source =?

f: is the observed frequency = 959 Hz

f₀: is the emitted frequency = 1038 Hz          

Both terms are positive in the fraction because the velocity of the sound is in the opposite direction to both velocities of the police car and the other car.  

By solving the above equation for [tex]v_{s}[/tex] we have:        

[tex] v_{s} = \frac{f_{0}(v + v_{r})}{f} - v = \frac{1038(343 + 12)}{959} - 343 = 41.24 m/s [/tex]  

Therefore, the police car is moving at 41.24 m/s.

I hope it helps you!

An electron and a proton are both released from rest, midway between the plates of a charged parallel-plate capacitor. The only force on each of the two particles is the force from the uniform electric field due to the capacitor. Each particle accelerates until striking one of the plates of the capacitor. (There is no gravity in this problem and we ignore the small force between the electron and the proton.) How do the final kinetic energies and final speeds (just before striking a plate) compare

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the potential difference between the middle point and one of the plate be ΔV .

electric potential energy will be lost and it will be converted into kinetic energy .

Electrical potential energy lost = Vq , where q is charge on charge particle .

For proton

ΔV× q = 1/2 M V² ( kinetic energy of proton )

where M is mass and V be final velocity of proton .

For electron

ΔV× q = 1/2 m v² ( kinetic energy of electron  )

where m is mass and v be final velocity of electron . Charges on proton and electron are same in magnitude .

As LHS of both the equation are same , RHS will also be same . That means the kinetic energy of both proton and electron will be same

1/2 M V² =  1/2 m v²

(V / v )² = ( m / M )

(V / v ) = √ ( m / M )

In other words , their velocities  are  inversely proportional to square root of their masses .

Eee A student conducts an investigation to determine how the force of gravity affects different objects dropped from different heights. The student tests each object one time and announces that all objects experienced gravity the same way. What is wrong with the student's reasoning?

Answers

Answer:

For which the reasoning of the boy is correct for small heights, but as height increases his analysis is not correct.

Explanation:

The force of gravity comes from Newton's second law with the force the universal attraction

         F = ma

         F = [tex]G \frac{m_1 M}{(R_e +h)^2}[/tex]

we substitute

          [tex]G \frac{m_1 M}{ (R_e+ h)^2}[/tex] = m₁ a

where Re is the radius of the Earth 6.37 106 m

          a = [tex]G\frac{M}{R_e^2} \ ( 1 + \frac{h}{R_e})^{-2}[/tex]

In general, the height is much less than the radius of the earth, therefore the term ha / Re is very small and we can use a series expansion leaving only the first fears.

             (1 + x)⁻² = 1 -2x + [tex]\frac{2 \ 1}{2!}[/tex]  x²

we substitute

          a = g₀ ([tex]1 - 2 \frac{h}{R_e}[/tex] )

with

         g₀ = [tex]G \frac{M}{R_e^2}[/tex]

let's launch the expression.

* For small height compared to the radius of the earth we can neglect the last term

          g = g₀

* For height comparable to the radius of the Earth

          g = g₀  [tex](1 - \frac{2h}{Re} )[/tex]

We see that the acceleration of gravity is decreasing.

For which the reasoning of the boy is correct for small heights, but as height increases his analysis is not correct.

The student's reasoning gone wrong when the analysis is undertaken for the increasing heights, to drop the object.

The given problem is based on the concept of gravity and gravitational force. The force of gravity comes from Newton's second law with the force the universal attraction as,

F = ma

[tex]F=G\dfrac{mM}{(R+h)^{2}}\\\\\\ma = G\dfrac{mM}{(R+h)^{2}}[/tex]

Here, a is the linear acceleration, m is the mass of object, M is the mass of Earth, R is the radius of Earth and h is the height from where the objects will be dropped. Then,

[tex]a = \dfrac{GM}{R^{2}} \times(1+h/R)^{-2}[/tex]

In general, the height is much less than the radius of the earth, therefore the term h/ R is very small, hence can be neglected.

[tex]a = \dfrac{GM}{R^{2}}\\\\a=g = \dfrac{GM}{R^{2}}[/tex]

g is the gravitational acceleration.

For small height compared to the radius of the earth we can neglect the last term as,

a = g

And for the height comparable to radius of Earth,

[tex]a = \dfrac{GM}{R^{2}} \times(1+h/R)^{-2}\\\\a=g \times(1+h/R)^{-2}[/tex]

Clearly, the acceleration of gravity is decreasing, for which the reasoning of the boy is correct for small heights, but as height increases his analysis is not correct.

Thus, we can conclude that the student's reasoning gone wrong when the analysis is undertaken for the increasing heights, to drop the object.

If an object possesses 500 J of potential energy, how much work is needed to lift this object?


a) 500 J

b) 250 J

c) 150 J

d) 1000 J

Answers

Answer:

a) 500 J

Explanation:

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

[tex] P.E = mgh[/tex]

Where,

P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

In Science, the potential energy possessed by an object or body is the same as the work done by the object or body.

Since we know that the object possessed 500 Joules of potential energy; it would ultimately require to do a work of 500 Joules to lift the object.

Mathematically, work done = force * distance

But force = mass * acceleration due to gravity

F = mg; d = h

Substituting into the work done formula, we have;

Hence, Workdone = Fd = mgh

A motion sensor emits sound, and detects an echo 0.0115 s after. A short time later, it again emits a sound, and hears an echo after 0.0183 s. How far has the reflecting object moved? (Speed of sound = 343 m/s) (Unit = m)​

Answers

Answer:

1.17 m

Explanation:

From the question,

s₁ = vt₁/2................ Equation 1

Where s₁ = distance of the reflecting object for the first echo, v = speed of the sound in air, t₁ = time to dectect the first echo.

Given: v = 343 m/s, t = 0.0115 s

Substitute into equation 1

s₁ = (343×0.0115)/2

s₁ = 1.97 m.

Similarly,

s₂ = vt₂/2.................. Equation 2

Where s₂ = distance of the reflecting object for the second echo, t₂ = Time taken to detect the second echo

Given: v = 343 m/s, t₂ = 0.0183 s

Substitute into equation 2

s₂ = (343×0.0183)/2

s₂ = 3.14 m

The distance moved by the reflecting object from s₁ to s₂ = s₂-s₁

s₂-s₁ =  (3.14-1.97) m = 1.17 m
