During a storm, a car traveling on a level horizontal road comes upon a bridge that has washed out. The driver must get to the other side, so he decides to try leaping the river with his car. The side of the road the car is on is18.0 m above the river, while the opposite side is only1.8 m above the river. The river itself is a raging torrent69.0 m wide.Part AHow fast should the car be traveling at the time it leaves the road in order just to clear the river and land safely on the opposite side?Part BWhat is the speed of the car just before it lands on the other side?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Part A: The speed the car should be travelling when leaping the river is approximately 37.948 m/s

Part B: The speed of the car just before it lands is approximately 41.92345 m/s

Explanation:

The parameters of the car attempting leaping the river are;

The height of the car over the river = 18 m

The height of the opposite side of the bridge above the river = 1.8 m

The width of the river, x = 69.0 m

Part A

The time, 't' it would take the car to fall from 18 m above the river to 1.8 m above the river is given as follows;

t = √(2·h/g)

Where;

h = The height of the fall = 18 m - 1.8 m = 16.2 m

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

∴ t = √(2×16.2 m/(9.8 m/s²)) = (9/7)·√2 s

The horizontal speed, 'vₓ', with which the car should be travelling at the time it leaves the road in order just to clear the river and land safely on the opposite side is given as follows;

vₓ = x/t = 69.0 m/((9/7)·√2 s) = (161/6)·√2 m/s ≈ 37.948 m/s

The horizontal speed the car should be travelling when leaping the river, vₓ ≈ 37.948 m/s

Part B;

The vertical velocity of the car is given as follows;

[tex]v_y[/tex]² = [tex]u_y[/tex]² + 2·g·h

∴ [tex]v_y[/tex]² =2·g·h = 2 × 9.8 m/s² × 16.200 m = 317.52m²/s²

[tex]v_y[/tex] = √(317.52 m²/s²) = (63/5)·√2 ≈ 17.819 m/s

The magnitude of the speed of the car, 'v', just before it lands is given using Pythagoras' theorem for resultant vectors as follows;

v = √([tex]v_y[/tex]² + vₓ²) = √(317.52 m²/s² +((161/6)·√2 m/s)²) ≈ 41.92345 m/s

The speed of the car just before it lands, v ≈ 41.92345 m/s.

the velocity of carriage B is greater than the speed of carriage a

             v_B> v_A

at t = 2 s

the speed of the two cars is nipple

              v_B = v_A

For this to be true, the speed of car B must be decreasing

Explanation:

Given that :

Distance, r = 50 ft

θ = 200°

The arc length of area covered :

Arc length = θ/360° * πr²

Arc length = (200/360) * 50 ft ^2 * π

Arc length = 0.5555555 * 2500 * π

Arc length = 4363.3231 feets²

A student stretches a spring, attaches a 1.20 kg mass to it, and releases the mass from rest on a frictionless surface. The resulting oscillation has a period of 0.750 s and an amplitude of 15.0 cm. Determine the oscillation frequency, the spring constant, and the speed of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position.

Answers

Answer:

the speed of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position is 1.26 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

mass of the object m = 1.20 kg

period of oscillation = 0.750 s

Amplitude ( A/x) = 15.0 cm = 0.15 m

now;

a) Determine the oscillation frequency;

oscillation frequency f = 1/T

we substitute

f = 1 / 0.750 s

f = 1.33 Hz

Therefore, the oscillation frequency is 1.33 Hz

b) Determine the spring constant;

we solve for spring constant from the following expression;

T = 2π√(m/k)

k = 4π²m / T²

so we substitute

k = (4π² × 1.20) / (0.750)²

k = 47.3741 / 0.5625

k =  84.22 N/m

Therefore, the spring constant is 84.22 N/m

c) determine the speed of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position

So, at equilibrium, the energy is equal to K.E

such that;

1/2mv² = 1/2kx²

mv² = kx²

v² = kx² / m

v = √( kx²/m)

we substitute

v = √( 84.22×(0.15 m)²/ 1.2 )

v = √( 1.89495 / 1.2 )

v = √ 1.579125

v = 1.26 m/s  

Therefore, the speed of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position is 1.26 m/s

(a) Use this model and the data provided to estimate the density of the nucleus of an atom.
(b) Compare your result with the density of a material such as iron. What do your result and comparison suggest about the structure of matter?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Let n be number of total number of nucleons ( protons + neutrons )

Total mass inside nucleus =  n x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg

volume of nucleus = 4/3 π r³

= 1.33 x 3.14 x (10⁻¹⁵)³ m

= 4.17 x 10⁻⁴⁵ m³

Density = mass / volume

=  n x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ / 4.17 x 10⁻⁴⁵

= .4 n x 10¹⁸ kg / m³

or of the order of 10¹⁸ kg/m³

b )

Density of iron = 7900 kg / m³

or of the order of 10⁴ kg / m³

So nucleus of a matter  is about 10¹⁴ times denser than iron .

A 6.00 nC is 2.00 m from a 3.00 nC charge. Find the magnitude of the electric field at a point midway between
the two charges? Which way does the electric field point, towards the positive or the negative charge?

Answers

Answer:

E_total = 26.97 N/C

Electric field points towards the positive charge

Explanation:

We are given;

Charge 1; q1 = 6 nC = 6 × 10^(-9) C

Charge 2; q2 = 3 nC = 3 × 10^(-9) C

Distance between both charges; R_o = 2 m

Since we want to find electric field midway, the distance midway is r = 2/2 = 1 m

Using coulumbs law;

E = kq/r²

Where k is a constant with a value of 8.99 × 10^(9) N.m/C²

Thus;

E1 = kq1/r²

E1 = (8.99 × 10^(9) × 6 × 10^(-9))/1²

E1 = 53.94 N/C

Similarly;

E2 = kq2/r²

E2 = (8.99 × 10^(9) × 3 × 10^(-9))/1²

E2 = 26.97 N/C

Since both electric fields are positive, it means that they are both moving towards the midpoint of the distance between both charges.

This implies they will have opposite directions.

Thus, total electric field at the midway point is;

E_total = E1 - E2

E_total = 53.94 - 26.97

E_total = 26.97 N/C

A single, monochromatic indigo light source is shined through an etched, flat prism with a slit separation of .0250mm. The resulting interference pattern is viewed on a screen 1.25m away. The third maximum is found to be 6.6cm from the central maximum. What is the wavelength of the indigo light

Answers

Answer:

  λ = 440 nm

Explanation:

The phenomenon of constructive interference is described by the expressions

          d sin θ= m λ                    (1)

where d is the separation of the slits d = 0.0250 mm = 2.50 10⁻⁵ m, lam is the wavelength of the incident radiation and m is an integer indicating the order of interference

let's use trigonometry to find the angle

          tan θ = y / L

where L is the distance to the screen L = 1.25 m

in general interference experiments angles are very small

         tan θ = [tex]\frac{sin \ \theta }{cos \ \theta}[/tex]

         ten θ = sin θ

substituting

           

         sin θ = y / L

we substitute 1

          d y / L = m λ

          λ = [tex]\frac{ d \ y }{m \ L}[/tex]

in the exercise indicate

        m = 3

         y = 6.6 cm = 6.6 10-2 m

we calculate

          λ = 2.50 10⁻⁵ 6.6 10⁻² /( 3   1.25)

          λ = 4.4 10⁻⁷ m

let's reduce to nm

          λ = 4.4 10⁻⁷ m (10⁹ nm / 1 m)

          λ = 440 nm

Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant (and quite modest) acceleration. A train travels through a congested part of town at 4.0 m/s . Once free of this area, it speeds up to 11 m/s in 8.0 s. At the edge of town, the driver again accelerates, with the same acceleration, for another 16 s to reach a higher cruising speed. Part A What is the final speed

Answers

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

Initial speed, u = 4 m/s

Final velocity, V = 11 m/s

Time, t = 8 seconds

t2, = 16 seconds

Acceleration, a= (change in velocity) / time interval

a = (11 - 4) / 8

a = 7 / 8 = 0.875m/s²

Final velocity, v2 ;

Acceleration * t2

0.875 * 16 = 14

V2 = 14 m/s

Final speed : v + v2 = (11 + 14)m/s = 25m/s

Use formula:

Vf = Vo + a * t

Replace:

Vf = 15 m/s + 2.0 m/s² * 3s

Multiply the acceleration with time:

Vf = 15 m/s + 6 m/s

Solve the sum:

Vf = 21 m/s

The velocity of the car at the end of the 3 second interval is 21 meters per second.

What is the impulse exerted on Peter during this 0.50 s

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Impulse = change in momentum

Initial momentum = mass x initial velocity = 100 x 5 = 500 kg m/s

final momentum = mass x final velocity = 100 x - 4 = -400 ( - ve sign due to reversal of direction )

change in momentum = final momentum - initial momentum

= - 400 - 500 = - 900 kg m/s .

As it is - ve , it acts upwards .

So magnitude of  impulse on Perter = 900 kg m/s

A wheelbarrow is pushed 10 meters with a force of 75 N for 30 seconds. What is the work done?
How much power is needed?

Answers

I’ll figure this out just give me 5 minutes
Work done= force(N) x distance moved in the direction of force. (m)
Power= work done/ time taken.
Work done = 75N x 10m
= 750Nm/ 750J( Joules)* joules is the SI unit of work.

Power is the rate at which work is done. Suppose two men were carrying a heavy box, man A has a force of 10N , man B has a force of 10N and both carries the box of a distance 3m. Both have done the same work. But if suppose man A takes 2 seconds to carry the box while man B takes 3 seconds, their power needed are different.
Man A , power= 30J/ 2s which is 15 joules per second ( SI unit of power is “watts”)
Man B, power= 30J/ 3s which is 10 joules per second. MAN A HAS MORE POWER.

so, the work done for the wheelbarrow is 750J, divide it by the time taken( 30 seconds) 750J/30s= 25 J/s. <— this is the power needed.

Desperado, a roller coaster built in Nevada, has a mass of 800 kg. It also has a vertical drop of 225 feet down the first hill. The roller coaster is designed so that the speed of the cars at the end of this drop is 80 mi/h. Assume the cars are at rest at the start of the drop. How much work is done by friction on the car as it drops down the hill

Answers

Answer:

the work done by friction on the car is 524,582 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the roller coaster, m = 800 kg

distance moved by the coaster, d = 225 ft = 68.58 m

final velocity of the coaster, v = 80 mi/h = 35.76 m/s

The time taken for the coaster to drop down the hill is calculated as;

[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\ \times \ 68.58}{9.8} } \\\\t = 3.74 \ s[/tex]

The work done by friction on the car is calculated as;

[tex]W =F\ \times \ d = \frac{mv}{t} \times \ d\\\\W = \frac{800 \ \times \ 35.76 }{3.74} \times \ 68.58\\\\W = 524,582 \ J[/tex]

Therefore, the work done by friction on the car is 524,582 J.

Answers

Answer:

 F = 120.25 10⁻⁹  N

Explanation:

In this exercise, the force between the closest neighbors is indicated by f = 481 10⁻⁹ N, in general between the one-dimensional solid the distances remain the same, if the distance between the first neighbor is d, the distance between the second neighbors is 2d.

For most solids the attractive forces are electrical, therefore force is proportional to the electrical charges and the inverse of the distance squared,

             F = [tex]k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}[/tex]

if we call fo the force for the first neighbors

              F₀ = k \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}

the force for the second neighbors r= 2d  

              F = k \frac{q_1 q_2}{(2d)^2}

              F = F₀ / 4

let's calculate

              F = 481 10⁻⁹ / 4

              F = 120.25 10⁻⁹  N
