A 1000-kg car is driving toward the north along a straight horizontal road at a speed of 20.0 m/s. The driver applies the brakes and the car comes to a rest uniformly in a distance of 240 m. What are the magnitude and direction of the net force applied to the car to bring it to rest?

Answers

Answer:

The value of F= - 830 N

Since the force is negative, it implies direction of the force applied was due south.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass = 1000-kg

Distance, d = 240 m

Initial velocity, v1 = 20.0 m/s

Final velocity, v2 = 0 (since the car came to rest after brake was applied)

v2²= v1² + 2ad (using one of the equation of motion)

0=  20² + (2 x a x  240)

0= 400 + 480 a

a = - 400/480

a = - 0.83 m/s²

Then, imputing the value of a into

F = ma

F = 1000 kg x ( - 0.83 m/s²)

F= - 830 N

The car was driving toward the north, and since the force is negative, it implies direction of the force applied was due south.

Space-faring astronauts cannot use standard weight scales (since they are constantly in free fall) so instead they determine their mass by measuring the period of oscillation when sitting in a chair connected to a spring. Suppose a chair is connected to a spring with a spring constant of 600 N/m. If the empty chair oscillates with a period of 0.9s, what is the mass of an astronaut who oscillates with a period of 2.0 s while sitting in the chair

Answers

Answer:

ma = 48.48kg

Explanation:

To find the mass of the astronaut, you first calculate the mass of the chair by using the information about the period of oscillation of the empty chair and the spring constant. You use the following formula:

[tex]T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m_c}{k}}[/tex]     (1)

mc: mass of the chair

k: spring constant = 600N/m

T: period of oscillation of the chair = 0.9s

You solve the equation (1) for mc, and then you replace the values of the other parameters:

[tex]m_c=\frac{T^2k}{4\pi^2}=\frac{(0.9s)^2(600N/m)}{4\pi^2}=12.31kg[/tex]    (2)

Next, you calculate the mass of the chair and astronaut by using the information about the period of the chair when the astronaut is sitting on the chair:

T': period of chair when the astronaut is sitting = 2.0s

M: mass of the astronaut plus mass of the chair = ?

[tex]T'=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{M}{k}}\\\\M=\frac{T'^2k}{4\pi^2}=\frac{(2.0s)^2(600N/m)}{4\pi^2}\\\\M=60.79kg[/tex] (3)

Finally, the mass of the astronaut is the difference between M and mc (results from (2) and (3)) :

[tex]m_a=M-m_c=60.79kg-12.31kg=48.48kg[/tex]

The mass of the astronaut is 48.48 kg

[tex]y=4.55 m[/tex]

The answer is letter A.

I hope it helps you!

Answer:

Explanation:

Find the displacement of a simple harmonic wave of amplitude 6.44 m at t = 0.71 s. Assume that the wave number is 2.34 m-1, the angular frequency is 2.88 rad/s, and that the wave is propagating in the +x direction at x = 1.21 m.

Amplitude (A) of the simple harmonic wave = 6.44 m

wave number (k) of the given wave = 2.34 m-1

Angular frequency (ω) of the given wave = 2.88 rad/s

Displacement x = 1.21 m and time t = 0.71 s

Then the general equation for the displacement of the given simple harmonic wave at given x and time t is given by

y = Asin(kx - ωt)

= (6.44 m)sin[(2.34 m-1)(1.21 m) - (2.88 rad/s)(0.71 s)]

Y=6.44sin(0.7866 rad)

0.7866rad*(180 degrees/pi rad) =45.1

Y=6.44sin(45.1)

Y=4.55m

Answers

Answer:

19.872 degrees

Explanation:

Mathematically;

Using Snell’s law

n1 sin A = n2 sinB

Where ;

n1 = refractive index in air = 1

n2 is refractive index in water = 1.33

A = ?

B = 45

Substituting the values in the equation;

1 sin A = 1.33 sin45

Sin A = 1.33 sin 45

A = arc sin (1.33 sin 45)

A = 70.12

Thus, the actual direction of the Sun with respect to the horizon = 90-A = 19.872 degrees

A merry-go-round on a playground consists of a horizontal solid disk with a weight of 810 N and a radius of 1.56 m. A child applies a force 49.0 N tangentially to the edge of the disk to start it from rest. What is the kinetic energy of the merry-go-round disk (in J) after 2.95 s

Answers

Answer:

Kinetic Energy of the disk = 252 J

Explanation:

weight of disk = 810 N

radius = 1.56 m

applied force = 49 N

time = 2.95 s

kinetic energy of disk = ?

first, we find the mass of the disk

mass of disk = weight/acceleration due to gravity(9.81 m/s^2) = 810/9.81 m/s^2

mass of disk = 82.57 kg

torque on the disk = force x radius = 49 x 1.56 = 76.44 N-m

moment of inertia I = m[tex]r^{2}[/tex] = 82.57 x [tex]1.56^{2}[/tex] = 200.9 kg-[tex]m^{2}[/tex]

recall that

Torque T = Iα

where α = angular acceleration

76.44 = 200.9α

α = 76.44/200.9 = 0.38 m/s^2

from the equation of angular motion,

ω = ω' + αt

where ω =  final angular speed

ω' = initial angular speed = 0 rad/s since disk starts from rest

t = time = 2.95 s

imputing values into the equation, we have

ω = 0 + (0.38 x 2.95)

ω = 1.12 rad/s

kinetic energy of the disk = I[tex]w^{2}[/tex]

KE = 200.9 x [tex]1.12^{2}[/tex]

Kinetic Energy of the disk = 252 J

A high diver of mass 60.0 kg steps off a board 10.0 m above the water and falls vertical to the water, starting from rest. If her downward motion is stopped 2.10 s after her feet first touch the water, what average upward force did the water exert on her

Answers

Answer:

The average upward force exerted by the water is 988.2 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the diver, m = 60 kg

height of the board above the water, h = 10 m

time when her feet touched the water, t = 2.10 s

The final velocity of the diver, when she is under the influence of acceleration of free  fall.

V² = U² + 2gh

where;

V is the final velocity

U is the initial velocity = 0

g is acceleration due gravity

h is the height of fall

V² = U² + 2gh

V² = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 10

V² = 196

V = √196

V = 14 m/s

Acceleration of the diver during 2.10 s before her feet touched the water.

14 m/s is her initial velocity at this sage,

her final velocity at this stage is zero (0)

V = U + at

0 = 14 + 2.1(a)

2.1a = -14

a = -14 / 2.1

a = -6.67 m/s²

The average upward force exerted by the water;

[tex]F_{on\ diver} = mg - F_{ \ water}\\\\ma = mg - F_{ \ water}\\\\F_{ \ water} = mg - ma\\\\F_{ \ water} = m(g-a)\\\\F_{ \ water} = 60[9.8-(-6.67)]\\\\F_{ \ water} = 60 (9.8+6.67)\\\\F_{ \ water} = 60(16.47)\\\\F_{ \ water} = 988.2 \ N[/tex]

Therefore, the average upward force exerted by the water is 988.2 N

Answers

Answer:

N₂ / N₁ = 13.3

Explanation:

A transformer is a system that induces a voltage in the secondary due to the variation of voltage in the primary, the ratio of voltages is determined by the expression

           ΔV₂ = N₂ /N₁  ΔV₁

where ΔV₂ and ΔV₁ are the voltage in the secondary and primary respectively and N is the number of windings on each side.

In this case, they indicate that the primary voltage is 9.0 V and the secondary voltage is 120 V

therefore we calculate the winding ratio

         ΔV₂ /ΔV₁ = N₂ / N₁

         N₂ / N₁ = 120/9

         N₂ / N₁ = 13.3

s good clarify that in transformers the voltage must be alternating (AC)

A rifle fires a 2.05 x 10-2-kg pellet straight upward, because the pellet rests on a compressed spring that is released when the trigger is pulled. The spring has a negligible mass and is compressed by 8.01 x 10-2 m from its unstrained length. The pellet rises to a maximum height of 4.46 m above its position on the compressed spring. Ignoring air resistance, determine the spring constant.

Answers

Answer:

Spring Constant = 279.58 N/m

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass; m = 2.05 x 10^(-2) kg = 0.0205 kg

Distance of compression; x = 8.01 × 10^(-2) m = 0.0801 m

Maximum height; h = 4.46 m

The formula for the energy in the spring is given by;

E = ½kx²

where:

k is the spring constant

x is the distance the spring is compressed.

Now, this energy of the spring will be equal to the energy of the pellet at its highest point. Energy of pallet = mgh So;

½kx² = mgh

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

½ * k * 0.0801² = 0.0205 * 9.81 * 4.46

0.003208005k = 0.8969

k = 0.8969/0.003208005

k = 279.58 N/m

b.The potential is lowest, but not zero, at the center of the sphere.
c. The potential at the center of the sphere is the same as the potential at the surface.
d. The potential at the center is the same as the potential at infinity.
e. The potential at the surface is higher than the potential at the center.

Answers

Answer:

a. FALSE

b. FALSE

c. TRUTH

d. FALSE

e. FALSE

Explanation:

To determine which statements are truth or false you focus in the following formula, for the electric potential generated by a conducting sphere:

[tex]V=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_o R}[/tex]      inside the sphere

[tex]V'=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_o r}[/tex]      for r > R (outside the sphere)

R: radius of the sphere

ε0: dielectric permittivity of vacuum

Q: charge of the sphere

As you can notice, inside the sphere the potential is constant. Inside the sphere, the potential is the same. Outside the surface the potential decreases as 1/r, being r the distance to the center of the sphere.

Hence, you can conclude:

a. The potential at the center of the sphere is zero. FALSE

b.The potential is lowest, but not zero, at the center of the sphere. FALSE

c. The potential at the center of the sphere is the same as the potential at the surface. TRUTH

d. The potential at the center is the same as the potential at infinity. FALSE

e. The potential at the surface is higher than the potential at the center. FALSE

A 54.0 kg ice skater is gliding along the ice, heading due north at 4.10 m/s . The ice has a small coefficient of static friction, to prevent the skater from slipping sideways, but Uk = 0. Suddenly, a wind from the northeast exerts a force of 3.70 N on the skater.a) Use work and energy to find the skater's speed after gliding 100 m in this wind.b) What is the minimum value of Ug that allows her to continue moving straight north?

Answers

Answer:

a. 2.668 m/s

b. 0.00494

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. As we know that

[tex]W = F\times d[/tex]

[tex]KE = 0.5\times m\times v^2[/tex]

As the wind does not move the skater to the east little work is performed in this direction. All the work goes in the direction of the N-S. And located in that direction the component of the Force.

F = 3.70 cos 45 = 2.62 N

[tex]W = F \times d = 2.62 N \times 100 m[/tex]

[tex]W = 261.6 N\times m[/tex]

We know that

KE1 = Initial kinetic energy

KE2 = kinetic energy following 100 m

The energy following 100 meters equivalent to the initial kinetic energy less the energy lost to the work performed by the wind on the skater.

So, the equation is

KE2 = KE1 - W

[tex]0.5 m\times v2^2 = 0.5 m\ v1^2 - W[/tex]

Now solve for v2

[tex]v2 = \sqrt{v1^2 - {\frac{2W}{M}}}[/tex]

[tex]= \sqrt{4.1 m/s)^2 - \frac{2 \times 261.6 N\times m}{54.0 kg}}[/tex]

= 2.668 m/s

b. Now the minimum value of Ug is

As we know that

Ff = force of friction

Us = coefficient of static friction

N = Normal force = weight of skater

So,

[tex]Ff = Us\times N[/tex]

Now solve for Us

[tex]= \frac{Ff}{N}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{3.70 N \times cos 45 }{54.0 kg \times 9.81 m/s^2}[/tex]

= 0.00494

[tex]mgh = mv^2/2 + I\omega^2/2[/tex]

Substituting v = ωr and I = 2 m r^2/5, we get,

=> [tex]mgh=m(\omega r)^2/2 + (2\omega r^2/5)\omega^2/2[/tex]

=> [tex]mgh = m\omega^2r^2/2 + m\omega^2r^2/5[/tex]

A hornet circles around a pop can at increasing speed while flying in a path with a 12-cm diameter. We can conclude that the hornet's wings must push on the air with force components that are Group of answer choices down and backwards. down, backwards, and outwards. down and inwards. down and outwards. straight down.

Answers

Answer:

down, backwards, and outwards.

Explanation:

For a hornet that is accelerating in flight, this means that there is a net forward motion at a relatively constant vertical height above the ground.

For this flight, the wings beat downwards to counter the weight of the hornet due to gravity, keeping it at that height above the floor.

For the hornet to accelerate forward, there has to be a net backwards force by the wing on the air. This backwards force accelerates tr forward due to the absence of an equal opposing force in the opposite direction save for a little drag.

The wings also beat with forces directed outwards to provide centripetal force to keep the hornet stable. The absence of this would cause it to spiral out of control.

The centroid of a quarter circle is at x = y = 4r/(3π).

The centroid of a right triangle is at x = b/3 and y = h/3.

Build a table listing each shape, the coordinates of its centroid (x and y), and its area (A).  Use negative areas for the shapes that are being subtracted.

Next, multiply each coordinate by the area (Ax and Ay), sum the results (∑Ax and ∑Ay), then divide by the total area (∑Ax / ∑A and ∑Ay / ∑A).  The result will be the x and y coordinates of the center of mass.

A flock of ducks is trying to migrate south for the winter, but they keep being blown off course by a wind blowing from the west at 5.0 m/s . A wise elder duck finally realizes that the solution is to fly at an angle to the wind.If the ducks can fly at 7.0 m/s relative to the air, what direction should they head in order to move directly south?

Answers

The ducks' flight path as observed by someone standing on the ground is the sum of the wind velocity and the ducks' velocity relative to the wind:

ducks (relative to wind) + wind (relative to Earth) = ducks (relative to Earth)

or equivalently,

[tex]\vec v_{D/W}+\vec v_{W/E}=\vec v_{D/E}[/tex]

(see the attached graphic)

We have

ducks (relative to wind) = 7.0 m/s in some direction θ relative to the positive horizontal direction, or

[tex]\vec v_{D/W}=\left(7.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(\cos\theta\,\vec\imath+\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath)[/tex]

wind (relative to Earth) = 5.0 m/s due East, or

[tex]\vec v_{W/E}=\left(5.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(\cos0^\circ\,\vec\imath+\sin0^\circ\,\vec\jmath)[/tex]

ducks (relative to earth) = some speed v due South, or

[tex]\vec v_{D/E}=v(\cos270^\circ\,\vec\imath+\sin270^\circ\,\vec\jmath)[/tex]

Then by setting components equal, we have

[tex]\left(7.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos\theta+5.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}=0[/tex]

[tex]\left(7.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin\theta=-v[/tex]

We only care about the direction for this question, which we get from the first equation:

[tex]\left(7.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos\theta=-5.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}[/tex]

[tex]\cos\theta=-\dfrac57[/tex]

[tex]\theta=\cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac57\right)\text{ OR }\theta=360^\circ-\cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac57\right)[/tex]

or approximately 136º or 224º.

Only one of these directions must be correct. Choosing between them is a matter of picking the one that satisfies both equations. We want

[tex]\left(7.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin\theta=-v[/tex]

which means θ must be between 180º and 360º (since angles in this range have negative sine).

So the ducks must fly (relative to the air) in a direction 224º relative to the positive horizontal direction, or about 44º South of West.

A low C (f = 65Hz) is sounded on a piano. If the length of the piano wire is 2.0 m and its mass density is 5.0 g/m2, determine the tension of the wire.

Answers

Answer:

Tension of the wire(T) = 169 N

Explanation:

Given:

f = 65Hz

Length of the piano wire (L) = 2 m

Mass density = 5.0 g/m² = 0.005 kg/m²

Find:

Tension of the wire(T)

Computation:

f = v / λ

65 = v / 2L

65 = v /(2)(2)

v = 260 m/s

T = v² (m/l)

T = (260)²(0.005/2)

T = 169 N

Tension of the wire(T) = 169 N
