A rocket is launched from atop a 101 foot cliff with an initial velocity of 116 ft/s.

\a. Substitute the values into the vertical motion formula h(t) = -16t2 + vt + h0 . Let h(t) = 0

b. How long will the rocket take to hit the ground after it is launched? Round to the nearest tenth of a second.

Answers

Answer:

A. 16t2 -116t -101=0 B. 8.0s

Explanation:

Known parameters from the question:

Height of Cliff,h0 = 101ft

Velocity of rocket ,v= 116ft/s.

1.Substituting the above to the above formula we have;

h(t) = -16t2 + vt + h0

Since h(t) =0, it means the rocket is falling towards the ground, when it gets to the ground when it's at rest the height h(t) = 0m

{Note the rocket is launched from the height of the Cliff so that would be the initial height of the rocket,h0}

2.Substituting into h(t) = -16t2 + vt + h0

We have;

0 = -16t2 + 116t + 101=> 16t2 -116t -101=0

Using formula method for solving quadratic equation we have;

t = -(-116)+_√[(-116)^2 -( 4× 16 ×-101]/ (2× 16)

t = [116 +_(141.1382)]/32

t = (116 -141.1382)/32 or (116 +141.1382)/32

-0.786s or 8.036s

-0.8s or 8.0s to the nearest tenth.

Now time cannot be negative in real life situation hence the time is 8.0s

Note : the general equation of a quadratic equation with variable t is given below;

at2 + bt + c=0

Formula method for quadratic equation is :

t =( -b+_√[(b^2 -( 4× a×c)] ) / (2× a)

Explain the following behaviour of molecules water rises up in a harrow tubes but mercury which is also a liquid falls in a narrow tubes to level below the outside surface

Answers

Answer: find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

The capillarity of water molecules is different from the mercury molecules.

What is capillarity ?

This is the tendency of a liquid substance to rise in a capillary tube.

Molecules water rises up in a harrow tubes because of the force of adhesion between the water molecules and the tube molecules is greater than the force of cohesion between the water molecules. This helps water to wet the tube and rise. While mercury which is also a liquid falls in a narrow tubes to level below the outside surface because the force of cohesion between the mercury molecules is greater than the force of adhesion between the mercury molecules and the tube molecules. Mercury does not wet.

What is the magnitude of impulse of a 2.7 gram ping pong ball initially moving at 15 m/s, if hit by a ping pong paddle and then moves the opposite direction at 14/ms

Answers

Answer:

impulse = 0.0783 kg.m/s

Explanation:

The impulse is the product of the force and an interval of time. This can be represented in terms of the mass of the body and the change in the velocity of the body in such a time:

[tex]F\Delta t=m\Delta v[/tex] [tex]=|m(v_f-v_i)|[/tex]

m: mass of the body = 2.7gm = 0.0027 kg

vf: final velocity = -14m/s

vi: initial velocity = 15m/s

vf is negative because the direction of the ball is opposite to the initial direction:

[tex]|m(v_f-v_i)|=|(0.0027kg)(-14m/s-15m/s)|=0.0783\frac{kg.m}{s}[/tex]

hence, the impulse of the ping pong ball is 0.0783 kg.m/s

‏A 50 - N x m torque acts on a wheel with a moment of inertia 150 kg x m² . If the wheel starts from rest , how long will it take the wheel to make one revolution ?

Answers

Answer:

t = 6.17 s

Explanation:

For a 1 revolution movement, [tex]\triangle \theta = 2\pi[/tex]

Torque, [tex]\tau = 50 Nm[/tex]

Moment of Inertia, [tex]I = 150 kg m^2[/tex]

If the wheel starts from rest, [tex]w_{0} = 0 rad/s[/tex]

The angular displacement of the wheel can be given by the formula:

[tex]\triangle \theta = \omega_0 t + 0.5 \alpha t^2[/tex]................(1)

Where [tex]\alpha[/tex] is the angular acceleration

[tex]\tau = I \alpha\\\alpha = \frac{\tau}{I} \\\alpha = 50/150\\\alpha = 0.33 rad/s^2[/tex]

To get t, put all necessary parameters into equation (1)

[tex]2\pi = 0(t) + 0.5(0.33)t^2\\2\pi =0.5(0.33)t^2\\t^2 = \frac{4 \pi}{0.33} \\t^2 = 38.08\\t = 6.17 s[/tex]

Combustion is used to power rockets

ii) Decomposition of sugar is a chemical change and new substances are formed.

2)corrosion of pipes

Corrosion of bridges

Corrosion of knives and blades at home

I) iron rusts due to the action of air and moisture bon the metal setting up an electrochemical process in which the iron is the anode. This leads to the corrosion of the iron metal.

ii) Rusting is a problem because it reduces the economic value of iron. Rust weakens iron and threatens the integrity of materials made from iron.

Iron rusting may lead to the collapse of a bridge

Iron rusting makes a blade blunt

Iron rusting weakens pipes made of iron

iii) Rusting of iron can be prevented by galvanizing the iron or by painting the iron.

ii)condensation of water vapour is a physical change

iii)

Electrolysis of water;

Two moles of water---> two moles of hydrogen gas + one mole of oxygen gas

Synthesis of water;

two moles of hydrogen gas + one mole of oxygen gas---->Two moles of water

Decomposition of sugar;

One mole of Sucrose---> twelve moles of carbon + eleven moles of water + heat

Six moles of carbon dioxide + six moles of water +energy------> one mole of sugar + six moles of oxygen

Explanation:

Combustion is useful as a source of energy because it is used in power generation. Currently, combustion is being used to power rockets. It is also used as a way of providing heat at home.

One of the characteristics of a chemical change is that it leads to the formation of new substances. Since the decomposition of sugar leads to the formation of carbon and water, it is an irreversible chemical change.

When water is heated, it is converted into vapour which can settle on a surface and convert back to liquid water. This is a physical change.

How fast is she moving 3.45 s later?

Answers

Answer:

34.55m/s

Explanation:

Now from Newton's law of motion;

V= U+ a×t

V- final velocity

U- initial velocity = 0m/s

a- acceleration

t- time

Note that a = g/cos53.2°

Now g is acceleration of free fall due to gravity

This is a vertical acceleration since the course of motion is along a plane inclined at 53.2° to the height of the pool.

Also from trigonometry identity

cos 53.2°= vertical component a/ acceleration ( cos a = adjacent/hypothenus)

If we assume g = 9.8m/S2 { a generally given value}

Substituting t = 3.45s as the time of consideration, we have;

V = 0 + (9.8/cos53.2°)×3.45

= -34.55m/s

Note the -ve sign is just telling us this velocity is causing the object to move down.

Hence V = 34.55m/s

In a hydroelectric power station, how much potential energy is lost by 100tonnes of water flowing down through the pipes, falling a vertical distance of 200metres? [1tonne=1000kg.]

Answers

Answer:

196000000 J

Explanation:

Potential Energy: This can be defined as the energy of a body due to its position in the gravitational field.

From the question,

P.E = mgh.................. Equation 1

Where P.E = potential Energy, m = mass of the water, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 100 tonnes = (100×1000) = 100000 kg, h = 200 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 1

P.E = 100000(200)(9.8)

P.E = 196000000 J.

Note: When a object falls through a height he losses its potential energy.

Hence the potential energy lost = 196000000 J = 196 MJ.

1a. Assuming 100% efficient energy conversion, how much water stored behind a 50cm high hydroelectric dam would be required to charge a 50 ampere-minute 12 volt battery with 600j of energy stored in it

Answers

Answer:

7.22 m³ of water should be stored behind the hydroelectric dam.

Explanation:

First we find the total energy that can be stored in the battery. For that purpose we use the formula:

P = VI

where,

P = Power delivered by battery

V = Voltage of Battery = 12 volts

I = Current in Battery

Multiplying both sides by time interval (t), we get:

Pt = VIt

where,

Pt = (Power)(Time) = Total Energy Stored in Battery = E = ?

It = Current Rating of Battery = (50 A.min)(60 s/min) = 3000 A.s

Therefore,

E = (12 volt)(3000 A.s)

E = 36000 J

Now, we have to find the energy required to fully charge the battery:

Energy Required = ΔE = Total Energy Capacity(E) - Already Stored Energy

ΔE = 36000 J - 600 J

ΔE =  35400 J

Now, this energy must be equal to the potential energy of water stored behind hydroelectric dam to fully charge the battery, provided that the conversion efficiency is 100 %.

Therefore,

ΔE = mgh

where,

m = mass of water behind hydroelectric dam

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = height of dam = 50 cm = 0.5 m

Therefore,

35400 J = m(9.8 m/s²)(0.5 m)

m = (35400 J)/(4.9 m²/s²)

m = 7224.5 kg

Now, to find the volume of stored water, we use:

ρ = m/V

V = m/ρ

where,

ρ = density of water = 1000 kg/m³

V = Volume of water behind dam = ?

V = (7224.5 kg)/(1000 kg/m³)

V = 7.22 m³
