Answer:
p = 727.273 kg/m3, y = 7134.545 N/m^3, SG = 0.7273
Explanation:
Density is simply the amount of mass of a substance per unit of volume. It can be found by dividing the mass in kg by the volume im m^3:
[tex]p = \frac{m}{v} = \frac{40kg}{55lt*\frac{1 m^3}{1000 lt}} = 727.273 kg/m^3[/tex]
Specific weight is the weight of the substance per unit of volume. The weight is the mass of the material times the gravity, and it represents the force that the earth exerts on an object. Another way of calculate this value, its multiplying the density of the fuel times the gravity. Then:
[tex]y = p*g = 727.273 kg/m^3 * 9.81 m/s^2 = 7134.545 N/m^3[/tex]
Specific Gravity is the ratio of the density of the substance to the density of a reference substance. For liquids, the reference substance is water at 4°C, which has a density of about 1000 kg/m^3.
[tex]SG =\frac{ p_{fuel}}{p_{water}} = \frac{727.273 kg/m^3}{1000 kg/m^3} = 0.7273[/tex]
Jack and Jill ran up the hill at 2.8 m/s . The horizontal component of Jill's velocity vector was 2.1 m/s . What was the angle of the hill?What was the vertical component of Jill's velocity?
Answer:[tex]\theta =41.409 ^{\circ}[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
Jack and Jill ran up the hill at 2.8 m/s
Horizontal component of Jill's velocity vector was 2.1 m/s
Let [tex]\theta [/tex]is the angle made by Jill's velocity with it's horizontal component
Therefore
[tex]2.8cos\theta =2.1[/tex]
[tex]cos\theta =\frac{2.1}{2.8}[/tex]
[tex]cos\theta =0.75[/tex]
[tex]\theta =41.409 ^{\circ}[/tex]
Vertical velocity is given by
[tex]V_y=2.8sin41.11=1.85 m/s[/tex]
The question can be solved using the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the vertical velocity component and apply trigonometry to find the angle of the hill. Remember the conversion from radians to degrees.
Explanation:The question asks about the angle of the hill that Jack and Jill climbed, as well as the vertical component of Jill’s velocity. We know that Jill ran up the hill at a velocity of 2.8 m/s and the horizontal component of her velocity was 2.1 m/s. These two components form a right angle triangle where the hypotenuse is the total velocity (2.8 m/s), one side is the horizontal velocity (2.1 m/s), and the other side, which we're finding, is the vertical component of the velocity.
We can find the angle of the hill, θ, using the tangent function of trigonometry. Tan θ = opposite side / adjacent side. In this case, the 'opposite side' is the vertical velocity component we're after, and the 'adjacent side' is the horizontal component (2.1 m/s). To find the vertical velocity component, you can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that: (Hypotenuse)² = (Adjacent Side)² + (Opposite Side)² or (2.8 m/s)² = (2.1 m/s)² + (vertical velocity)².
Once you solve for the vertical velocity through the Pythagorean theorem, you then insert it into the tangent equation to solve for the angle θ. Remember that when you use the arctangent function on a calculator to find the angle, the answer will likely be in radians, so you might need to convert them into degrees.

Draw, as best you can, what a velocity graph would look like as a function of time if the acceleration of the object is negative.
Answer:
Depends on the specific relation of acceleration as function of time, but it would always look like decresing or increasing negatively.
Explanation:
Acceleration is the derivative of velocity with respect to time. That means that it is the change. The fact that is negative means that it is decreasing, or increasing in the negative direction (i.e. going backwards faster).
Attached is the graph with constant negative acceleration, using kinematics relations, it would be a linear equation with negative slope.
Answer:a straight line with negative slope

Hydroelectric dams use ------- to produce electricity. gravitational potential energy of falling water
nuclear energy
geothermal energy
fossil fuel energy
solar energy
Answer:
Gravitational potential energy
Explanation:
Hydroelectric dams are the power plants which generates electricity by using the energy of falling water from a great height.
A the water is stored in big reservoirs and at a great height, it contain lot of potential energy due to the height. As it falls downwards, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy of the water. this kinetic energy of the falling water is used to run the turbine, and then the electric energy is generated.
So, in hydroelectric power stations, the potential energy of water is converted into the electric energy.
I have a device that can generate sounds with frequencies between 800 Hz and 1600 Hz. I also have an unlabeled tuning fork that I need to work out the fundamental frequency of. I find that it resonates at 920 Hz and 1380 Hz, but no other frequencies in that range. What's the lowest frequency that it will resonate at?
Answer:
460 Hz
Explanation:
the given resonating frequency of the device
f₁ = 920 Hz and f₂ = 1380 Hz
fundamental frequency of the device is
f₀ = n₂ - n₁
= 1380 - 920
= 460 Hz
expression of frequency of organic pipe open at both ends
[tex]f_0=n\dfrac{\nu}{2l}[/tex]
at n = 1
[tex]f_0=\dfrac{\nu}{2l} = 460 Hz[/tex]
the frequency ratios of the closed pipe
[tex]f_0:f_1:f_2: ...... =[1:2:3:.........]f_0[/tex]
=[1:2:3:.........]460 Hz
= 460 Hz : 920 Hz : 1380 Hz
so, the lowest frequency for the pipe open at both end is 460 Hz
A Neglecting air resistance, a ball projected straight upward so it remains in the air for 10 seconds needs an initial speed of O 100 m/s. 60 m/s. 50 m/s 80 m/s. 110 m/s.
Answer:
The initial velocity of the ball should be 50 m/s.
Explanation:
Since the trip of the ball shall consist of upward ascend and the downward descend and since the ascend and the descend of the ball is symmetrical we infer that the upward ascend of the ball shall last for a time of 5 seconds.
Now since the motion of ball is uniformly accelerated we can find the initial speed of the ball using first equation of kinematics as
[tex]v=u+gt[/tex]
where,
'v' is final velocity of the ball
'u' is initial velocity of the ball
'g' is acceleration due to gravity
't' is the time of motion
Now we know that the ball will continue to ascend until it's velocity becomes zero hence to using the above equation we can write
[tex]0=u-9.81\times 5\\\\\therefore u=9.81\times 5=49.05m/s\approx 50m/s[/tex]
You are designing a ski jump ramp for the next Winter Olympics. You need to calculate the vertical height (h) from the starting gate to the bottom of the ramp. The skiers push off hard with their ski poles at the start, just above the starting gate, so they typically have a speed of 2.0 m/s as they reach the gate. For safety, the skiers should have a speed of no more than 30.0 m/s when they reach the bottom of the ramp. You determine that for a 85.0 kg skier with good form, friction and air resistance will do total work of magnitude 4000 J on him during his run down the slope.What is the maximum height (h) for which the maximum safe speed will not be exceeded?
Answer:
h = 50.49 m
Explanation:
Data provided:
Speed of skier, u = 2.0 m/s
Maximum safe speed of the skier, v = 30.0 m/s
Mass of the skier, m = 85.0
Total work = 4000 J
Height from the starting gate = h
Now, from the law of conservation of energy
Total energy at the gate = total energy at the time maximum speed is reached
[tex]\frac{1}{2}mu^2+mgh=4000J+\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]
where, g is the acceleration due to the gravity
on substituting the values, we get
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\times85\times2.0^2+85\times9.81\times h=4000J+\frac{1}{2}\times85\times30^2[/tex]
or
170 + 833.85 × h = 4000 + 38250
or
h = 50.49 m
If you are playing soccer and you always hit the left goal post instead of scoring, are you: a. accurate? b. precise? c. both? or d. neither?
Answer:
b. precise
Explanation:
Accuracy means how close a measurement is to the true value (in our example the true value is score a goal )
Precision refers how close two or more measurements to each other.
So if the playing soccer hit always the left goal post, he is not accurate (e doesn't score any goals ) but he is very precise
Newton's second law: Rudolph the red nosed reindeer is pulling a 25 kg sled across the snow in a field. The coefficient of kinetic friction is .12 The rope that is pulling the sled is coming off at a 29 degree angle above the horizontal. Find the force in the rope when the acceleration is .12 m/s^2.
Answer:
[tex]F=39,68N[/tex]
Explanation:
Data:
Mass [tex]m=25 Kg[/tex]
Coefficient of kinetic friction [tex]\mu=0.12[/tex]
Angle = [tex]29^{0}[/tex]
Acceleration = [tex]0.12 \frac{m}{s^{2} }[/tex]
Solution:
By Newton's first law we know that for the x-axis:
[tex]F_{rope_x}-F_f=F_R[/tex] Where [tex]F_R[/tex] is the resulting force, and [tex]F_f[/tex] is the friction force.
And for the y-axis:
[tex]F_{rope_y}+N=W[/tex], where N is the normal force, and W is the weight of the sled.
We know that the resulting force's acceleration is [tex]0.12 \frac{m}{s^{2} }[/tex], and by using Newton's second law, we obtain:
[tex]F=m.a[/tex]
[tex]F_R=25Kg. 0.12\frac{m}{s^2} \\ F_R=3N[/tex] .
Now, the horizontal component of the force in the rope will be given by
[tex]F_{rope_x}=F_{rope}.cos(29^0)=F_R+F_f[/tex], since the resulting force is completely on the x-axis, and the friction opposes to the speed of the sled.
To obtain the friction force, we must know the normal force:
[tex]F_f=\mu. N[/tex]
Clearing N in the y-axis equation:
[tex]N=W-F_{rope_y}=W-F_{rope}.sin(29^0)[/tex]
So we can express the x-axis equation as follows:
[tex]F.cos(29^0)=F_R+\mu.(W-F_{rope}.sin(29^0))[/tex]
Finally, solving for F we get
[tex]F = (F_R + \mu. m.g) / (cos (29^0) + \mu.sin (29^0))[/tex]
[tex]F=39,68N[/tex]

Answer:
longest length is 13304.05 m
Explanation:
given data
diameter = 25 mm
so radius r = 12.5 × [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] m
density = 5000 kg/m³
tension = 320000 N
to find out
longest length of of this rope
solution
we know that here tension is express as
T = m × g
and m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity
here mass = density × volume
and volume = π×r²×l

so T = density c volume × g
put here value
320000 = 5000 × π×12.5² × [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] × l × 9.8
solve it we get length l
l = 13304.05
so longest length is 13304.05 m

Explanation:
Given:
Diameter of the balloon, d = 29.6 cm = 0.296 m
Temperature, T = 19.0° C = 19 + 273 = 292 K
Pressure, P = 1.00 atm = 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa
Volume of the balloon = [tex]\frac{4}{3}\pi(\frac{d}{2})^3[/tex]
or
Volume of the balloon = [tex]\frac{4}{3}\pi(\frac{0.296}{2})^3[/tex]
or
Volume of the balloon, V = 0.0135 m³
Now,
From the relation,
PV = nRT
where,
n is the number of moles
R is the ideal gas constant = 8.314 kg⋅m²/s²⋅K⋅mol
on substituting the respective values, we get
1.013 × 10⁵ × 0.0135 = n × 8.314 × 292
or
n = 0.563
1 mol = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms
Thus,
0.563 moles will have = 0.563 × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms = 3.39 × 10²³ atoms
b) Average kinetic energy = [tex]\frac{3}{2}\times K_BT[/tex]
where,
Boltzmann constant, [tex]K_B=1.3807\times10^{-23}J/K[/tex]
Average kinetic energy = [tex]\frac{3}{2}\times1.3807\times10^{-23}\times292[/tex]
or
Average kinetic energy = 6.04 × 10⁻²¹ J
c) rms speed = [tex]\frac{3RT}{m}[/tex]
where, m is the molar mass of the Helium = 0.004 Kg
or
rms speed = [tex]\frac{3\times8.314\times292}{0.004}[/tex]
or
rms speed = 1349.35 m/s
A box moving on a horizontal surface with an initial velocity of 20 m/s slows to a stop over a time period of 5.0 seconds due solely to the effects of friction. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ground?
Answer:
μ= 0.408 : coefficient of kinetic friction
Explanation:
Kinematic equation for the box:
[tex]a=\frac{v_{f} -v_{i} }{t}[/tex] Formula( 1)
a= acceleration
v_i= initial speed =0
v_f= final speed= 20 m/s
t= time= 5 s
We replace data in the formula (1):
[tex]a=\frac{0-20}{5}[/tex]
[tex]a= -\frac{20}{5}[/tex]
a= - 4m/s²
Box kinetics: We apply Newton's laws in x-y:
∑Fx=ma : second law of Newton
-Ff= ma Equation (1)
Ff is the friction force
Ff=μ*N Equation (2)
μ is the coefficient of kinetic friction
N is the normal force
Normal force calculation
∑Fy=0 : Newton's first law
N-W=0 W is the weight of the box
N=W= m*g : m is the mass of the box and g is the acceleration due to gravity
N=9.8*m
We replace N=9.8m in the equation (2)
Ff=μ*9.8*m
Coefficient of kinetic friction ( μ) calculation
We replace Ff=μ*9.8*m and a= -4m/s² in the equation (1):
-μ*9.8*m: -m*4 : We divide by -m on both sides of the equation
9.8*μ=4
μ=4 ÷ 9.8
μ= 0.408
A student standing on the ground throws a ball straight up. The ball leaves the student's hand with a speed of 13.0 m/s when the hand is 2.30 m above the ground. How long is the ball in the air before it hits the ground?
Answer:
2.82 s
Explanation:
The ball will be subject to the acceleration of gravity which can be considered constant. Therefore we can use the equation for uniformly accelerated movement:
Y(t) = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2
Y0 is the starting position, 2.3 m in this case.
Vy0 is the starting speed, 13 m/s.
a will be the acceleration of gravity, -9.81 m/s^2, negative because it points down.
Y(t) = 2.3 + 13 * t - 1/2 * 9.81 * t^2
It will reach the ground when Y(t) = 0
0 = 2.3 + 13 * t - 1/2 * 9.81 * t^2
-4.9 * t^2 + 13 * t + 2.3 = 0
Solving this equation electronically gives two results:
t1 = 2.82 s
t2 = -0.17 s
We disregard the negative solution. The ball spends 2.82 seconds in the air.

the driver of a car slams on her brakes to avoid collidingwith
a deer crossing the highway. what happens to the car's
kineticenergy as it comes to rest?
Answer:
Its dissipated by the brake.
Explanation:
Traditional brakes use friction to stop the wheels (or axis). This friction its dissipated in the form of heat. There are others mechanism to brake that don't dissipated the energy, they stored it. In electric cars (or hybrids), there are regenerative brakes, that store the kinetic energy as electrical energy.
As the driver slams the brakes, the kinetic energy of the car gets converted into other forms of energy until the car comes to a stop, at which point it becomes zero.
Explanation:When the driver of a car slams on her brakes to avoid a collision with a deer crossing the highway, the kinetic energy of the car decreases until the car comes to rest. This is due to the principle of energy conservation. Initially, when the car is moving, it has kinetic energy. However, when the brakes are applied, the kinetic energy gets converted into other forms of energy such as heat energy (due to friction between the brakes and the wheels) and potential energy (if the car is moving uphill). The kinetic energy keeps decreasing until the car comes to a complete stop. At that point, the kinetic energy of the car is zero because kinetic energy is associated with motion and the car is no longer moving.

An aircraft is at a standstill. It accelerates to 140kts in 28 seconds. The aircraft weighs 28,000 lbs. How many feet of runway was used?
Answer:
runway use is 3307.8 feet
Explanation:
given data
velocity = 140 kts = 140 × 0.5144 m/s = 72.016 m/s
time = 28 seconds
weight = 28000 lbs
to find out
How many feet of runway was used
solution
we will use here first equation of motion for find acceleration
v = u + at ..............1
here v is velocity given and u is initial velocity that is 0 and a is acceleration and t is time
put here value in equation 1
72.016 = 0 + a(28)
a = 2.572 m/s²
and
now apply third equation of motion
s = ut + 0.5×a×t² .......................2
here s is distance and u is initial speed and t is time and a is acceleration
put here all value in equation 2
s = 0 + 0.5×2.572×28²
s = 1008.24 m = 3307.8 ft
so runway use is 3307.8 feet
To find the runway distance used by an aircraft accelerating to 140 knots in 28 seconds, we convert knots to feet per second, find the acceleration, and then apply the kinematic formula for distance to obtain approximately 3308 feet.
Explanation:To calculate how many feet of runway an aircraft used to accelerate to 140 knots in 28 seconds, we need to convert the speed to consistent units and use the kinematic equations for uniformly accelerated motion. Knots need to be converted to feet per second (since the answer is required in feet). Since 1 knot = 1.68781 feet per second, 140 knots is equivalent to 236.293 feet per second. Now, we can use the formula for distance d when given initial velocity vi, final velocity vf, and acceleration a:
d = (vi + vf) / 2 * t
Here, as the plane is starting from a standstill, vi is 0, vf is 236.293 feet/second, and t is 28 seconds. We first need to find the acceleration:
a = (vf - vi) / t = 236.293 / 28 = 8.439 feet/second2
Now we can calculate the distance:
d = (0 + 236.293) / 2 * 28 = 3308.1 feet
The aircraft used approximately 3308 feet of runway.
You are on a train traveling east at speed of 28 m/s with respect to the ground. 1) If you walk east toward the front of the train, with a speed of 1.5 m/s with respect to the train, what is your velocity with respect to the ground? (m/s east)
2) If you walk west toward the back of the train, with a speed of 2.1 m/s with respect to the train, what is your velocity with respect to the ground? (m/s, east)
3) Your friend is sitting on another train traveling west at 22 m/s. As you walk toward the back of your train at 2.1 m/s, what is your velocity with respect to your friend? (m/s, east)
Answer:
A) 29.5m/s
B) 25.9m/s
C) 47.9 m/s
Explanation:
This is a relative velocity problem, which means that the velocity perception will vary from each observer at a different reference point.
We can say that the velocity of the train respect the ground is 28m/s on east direction If I walk 1.5m/s respect the train, the velocity of the person respect to the ground is the sum of both velocities:
Vgp=Vgt+Vtp
where:
Vgp=velocity of the person respect the ground
Vgt=Velocity of the train respect the ground
Vtp=Velocity of the person respect the train
1) Vgp=28m/s+1.5m/s=29.5m/s
2) here the velocity of the person respect the train is negative because it is going backward
Vgp=28m/s-2.1m/s=25.9m/s
3) the velocity of the train respect with your friend will be the sum of both velocities(Vft).
Vfp=Vft+Vtp
Vfp=velocity of the person respect the friend
Vft=Velocity of the train respect the friend
Vtp=Velocity of the person respect the friend
Vfp=(22m/s+28m/s)+(-2.1m/s)=47.9 m/s

After choosing the equation, show your steps in solving for the unknown, checking units, and discuss whether the answer is reasonable. (c) How long a time is the dolphin in the air? Neglect any effects resulting from his size or orientation.
(a) Initial velocity (v₀) = 0 m/s, Final velocity (v) = 15.0 m/s.
(b) The dolphin rises approximately 11.5 meters above the water.
(c) The dolphin is in the air for approximately 1.5 seconds.
(a)
Initial velocity (v₀) = 0 m/s (since the dolphin jumps straight up from the water, its initial velocity is zero)
Final velocity (v) = 15.0 m/s (given)
(b)
To solve for the height, we can use the kinematic equation that relates the final velocity (v), initial velocity (v₀), acceleration (a), and displacement (Δy):
v² = v₀² + 2aΔy
v² = v₀² + 2gh
v² = 2gh
Solving for h:
h = (v²) / (2g)
h = (15.0)² / (2 × 9.8)
h ≈ 11.5 m
Therefore, the dolphin rises approximately 11.5 meters above the water.
(c) To determine the time the dolphin is in the air, we can use the equation for time (t) derived from the kinematic equation:
Δy = v₀t + (1/2)at²
Δy = (1/2)at²
t = √((2Δy) / a)
t = √((2 × 11.5) / -9.8)

Explanation:(a) The knowns in this problem are:
Initial velocity of the dolphin: 13.0 m/sAcceleration due to gravity: -9.8 m/s²(b) To find the height above the water, we need to find the time taken by the dolphin to reach that height and use the equation:
Final velocity = Initial velocity + Acceleration × Time
Solving for time, we have:
Time = (Final velocity - Initial velocity) / Acceleration
Substituting the known values into the equation, we get:
Time = (0 m/s - 13.0 m/s) / -9.8 m/s² = 1.33 s
Next, we can use the formula for height:
Height = Initial velocity × Time + 0.5 × Acceleration × Time²
Substituting the known values, we have:
Height = 13.0 m/s × 1.33 s + 0.5 × -9.8 m/s² × (1.33 s)² = 8.64 m
(c) The time the dolphin is in the air is equal to the time calculated above, which is 1.33 seconds.
Tarzan, in one tree, sights Jane in another tree. He grabs
theend of a vine with length 20 m that makes an angle of 45
degreeswith the vertical, steps off his tree limb, and swings down
andthen up to Jane's open arms. When he arrives, his vine makesan
angle of 30 degrees with the vertical. determine whetherhe gives
her a tender embrace or knocks her off her limb bycalculating
Tarzan's speed just before he reaches Jane. Youcan ignore air
resistace and the mass of the vine.
Answer:
He knocks her. V = 7.97m/s
Explanation:
Let A be Tarzan's starting position and B Jane's position (Tarzan's final position).
Since there is no air resistance, energy at position A must be equal to energy at B.
At position A, Tarzan's speed is zero and since the 45° of the vine is greater than the final 30°, Tarzan will have potential energy at point A.
[tex]E_{A}=m_{T}*g*L*(cos(30)-cos(45))[/tex]
At point B, it is the lowest point (between A and B), so it has no potential energy. It will only have kinetic energy (ideally zero, for Jane's sake, but we don't know).
[tex]E_{B}=\frac{m_{T}*V^{2}}{2}[/tex]
Because of energy conservation, we know that Ea=Eb, so:
[tex]m_{T}*g*L*(cos(30)-cos(45))=\frac{m_{T}*V^{2}}{2}[/tex] Solving for V:
[tex]V=\sqrt{2*g*L*(cos(30)-cos(45))}=7.97m/s[/tex]
A hot-air balloon is descending at a rate of 2.3 m/s when a pas- senger drops a camera. If the camera is 41 m above the ground when it is dropped, (a) how much time does it take for the cam- era to reach the ground, and (b) what is its velocity just before it lands? Let upward be the positive direction for this problem.
Answer:
a) time taken = 2.66 s
b) v = 28.34
Explanation:
given,
rate of descending = 2.3 m/s
height of camera above ground = 41 m
using equation of motion
[tex]h = u t + \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]
[tex]41 =2.3t + \dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2[/tex]
4.9 t² + 2.3 t - 41 =0
t = 2.66 ,-3.13
time taken = 2.66 s
b) v² = u² + 2 g h
v² = 0 + 2× 9.8 × 41
v = 28.34

c. The phase difference between the current and the emf of the generator
Please show all steps and units. Thank you.
Answer:
(a) 4.04 ohm
(b) 6.93 A
(c) 8.53°
Explanation:
f = 12 kHz = 12000 Hz
Vo = 28 V
R = 4 ohm
L = 30 micro Henry = 30 x 10^-6 H
C = 8 micro Farad = 8 x 10^-6 F
(a) Let Z be the impedance
[tex]X_{L} = 2\pi fL=2\times3.14\times12000\times30\times10^{-6}= 2.26 ohm[/tex]
[tex]X_{c} = \frac{1}{2\pi fC}=\frac{1}{2\times3.14\times12000\times8\times10^{-6}}= 1.66 ohm[/tex]
[tex]Z = \sqrt{R^{2}+(X_{L}-X_{C})^{2}}=\sqrt{4^{2}+\left ( 2.26-1.66 \right )^{2}}[/tex]
Z = 4.04 Ohm
(b) Let Io be the amplitude of current
[tex]I_{o}=\frac{V_{o}}{Z}[/tex]
[tex]I_{o}=\frac{28}{4.04}[/tex]
Io = 6.93 A
(c) Let the phase difference is Ф
[tex]tan\phi = \frac{X_{L}-X_{C}}{R}[/tex]
[tex]tan\phi = \frac{2.26-1.66}{4}[/tex]
tan Ф =0.15
Ф = 8.53°
A barge is carrying a load of gravel along a river.
Itapproaches a low bridge, and the captain realizes that the top
ofthe pile of gravel is not going to make it under the bridge.
Thecaptain orders the crew to quickly shovel gravel from the pile
intothe water. Is this a good decision? Explain.
Answer:
Explanation:
Shoveling gravel into the water will increase the buoyancy of the barge, which will make it float higher. Without data it is hard to tell if it will raise the barge enough to be counterproductive, but in any case throwing away the payload is not a good idea. Adding some weights would make the barge float lower, and then maybe the plie can make it under the bridge.

Vesna Vulovic survived the longest fall on record without a parachute when her plane exploded and she fell 5 miles, 733 yards. What is this distance in meters?
Answer:
8717 meters.
Explanation:
We need to know the conversion factors. We know that:
1 mile = 1609.34 meters
1 yard = 0.9144 meters
This means that:
[tex]\frac{1609.34 meters}{1 mile}=1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{0.9144 meters}{1 yard}=1[/tex]
It is convenient to leave the units we want at the end in the numerator so the ones in the denominator cancel out with the ones we want to remove, as will be seen in the next step.
We will convert first the miles, then the yards, and add them up.
[tex]5miles=5miles\frac{1609.34 meters}{1 mile}=8046.7meters[/tex]
[tex]733yards=733yards\frac{0.9144 meters}{1 yard}=670.2552meters[/tex]
So total distance is the sum of these, 8717 meters.
A charge of 7.0 μC is to be split into two parts that are then separated by 9.0 mm. What is the maximum possible magnitude of the electrostatic force between those two parts?
Answer:
[tex]F = 1361.1 N[/tex]
Explanation:
As we know that a charge is split into two parts
so we have
[tex]q_1 + q_2 = 7\mu C[/tex]
now we have
[tex]F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}[/tex]
here we know
[tex]F = \frac{kq_1(7\mu C - q_1)}{r^2}[/tex]
here we have
r = 9 mm
now to obtain the maximum value of the force between two charges
[tex]\frac{dF}{dq_1} = 0[/tex]
so we have
[tex]7 \mu C - q_1 - q_1 = 0[/tex]
so we have
[tex]q_1 = q_2 = 3.5 \mu C[/tex]
so the maximum force is given as
[tex]F = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(3.5 \mu C)(3.5 \mu C)}{0.009^2}[/tex]
[tex]F = 1361.1 N[/tex]
If a beam passes from a material with a refractive index of 1.3 into a material with a refractive index of 1.7 at an angle of 25 degrees (from normal), what is the angle of refraction of the beam? Is the beam bent towards normal or away from it? Sketch a diagram of this problem with rays, angles, and the interface labeled.
Answer:
18.86° , it will bend towards normal.
Explanation:
For refraction,
Using Snell's law as:
[tex]n_i\times {sin\theta_i}={n_r}\times{sin\theta_r}[/tex]
Where,
[tex]{\theta_i}[/tex] is the angle of incidence ( 25.0° )
[tex]{\theta_r}[/tex] is the angle of refraction ( ? )
[tex]{n_r}[/tex] is the refractive index of the refraction medium (n=1.7)
[tex]{n_i}[/tex] is the refractive index of the incidence medium ( n=1.3)
Hence,
[tex]1.3\times {sin\ 25.0^0}={1.7}\times{sin\theta_r}[/tex]
Angle of refraction = [tex]sin^{-1}0.3232[/tex] = 18.86°
Since, the light ray is travelling from a material with a refractive index of 1.3 into a material with a refractive index of 1.7 or lighter to denser medium, it will bend towards normal.
The diagram is shown below:
What is the magnitude of the sum of the two vectors A = 36 units at 53 degrees, and B =47 units at 157 degrees.
Answer:
51.82
Explanation:
First of all, let's convert both vectors to cartesian coordinates:
Va = 36 < 53° = (36*cos(53), 36*sin(53))
Va = (21.67, 28.75)
Vb = 47 < 157° = (47*cos(157), 47*sin(157))
Vb = (-43.26, 18.36)
The sum of both vectors will be:
Va+Vb = (-21.59, 47.11) Now we will calculate the module of this vector:
[tex]|Va+Vb| = \sqrt{(-21.59)^2+(47.11)^2}=51.82[/tex]
Calculate the The wavelength of the first Balmer series of hydrogen is 6562 following: a) The ionization potential, and b) The first excitation potential of the hydrogen atom.
Answer:
(a) 13.6 eV
(b) 10.2 V
Explanation:
a) Ionization potential energy is defined as the minimum energy required to excite a neutral atom to its ionized state i.e basically the minimum energy required to excite an electron from n=1 to infinity.
Energy of a level, n, in Hydrogen atom is, [tex]E_{n}=-\frac{13.6}{n^{2} }[/tex]
Now ionization potential can be calculated as
[tex]E_{\infty}- E_{0}[/tex]
Substitute all the value of energy and n in above equation.
[tex]=-\frac{13.6}{\infty^{2}}-(-\frac{13.6}{1^{2}})\\=13.6eV[/tex]
Therefore, the ionization potential is 13.6 eV.
b) This is the energy required to excite a atom from ground state to its excited state. When electrons jumps from ground state level(n=1) to 1st excited state(n=2) the corresponding energy is called 1st excitation potential energy and corresponding potential is called 1st excitation potential.
So, 1st excitation energy = E(n 2)- E(n = 1)
[tex]=-\frac{13.6}{2^{2}}-(-\frac{13.6}{1^{2}})\\=-3.4eV - (-13.6eV) \\=10.2eV[/tex]
Now we can find that 1st excitation energy is 10.2 eV which gives,
[tex]eV'=10.2eV\\V'=10.2V[/tex]
Therefore, the 1st excitation potential is 10.2V.
A hot air ballo0n is ascending straight up at a constant
speedof 7.0 m/s. When the balloon is 12.0 m above the ground, agun
fires a pellet straight up from ground level with an initialspped
of 30.0 m/s. Along the paths of the ballon and thepellet, there are
two places where each of them has the altitude atthe same time. How
far above ground level are theseplaces?
Answer: The two places altitudes are: 16.17 m and 40.67 m
Explanation:
Hi!
Lets call z to the vertical direction (z= is ground) . Then the positions of the balloon and the pellet, using the values of the velocities we are given, are:
[tex]z_b =\text{balloon position}\\z_p=\text{pellet position}\\z_b=(7\frac{m}{s})t\\z_p=30\frac{m}{s}(t-t_0)-\frac{g}{2}(t-t_0)^2\\g=9.8\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]
How do we know the value of t₀? This is the time when the pellet is fired. At this time the pellet position is zero: its initial position. To calculate it we know that the pellet is fired when the ballon is in z = 12m. Then:
[tex]t_0=\frac{12}{7}s[/tex]
We need to know the when the z values of balloon and pellet is the same:
[tex]z_b=z_p\\(7\frac{m}{s})t =30\frac{m}{s}(t-\frac{12}{7}s)-\frac{g}{2}(t-\frac{12}{7}s)^2[/tex]
We need to find the roots of the quadratic equation. They are:
[tex]t_1=2.31s\\t_2=5.81[/tex]
To know the altitude where the to objects meet, we replace the time values:
[tex]z_1=16,17m\\z_2=40,67m[/tex]
A Horizontal rifel is fired at a bull's-eye. The muzzle
speedof the bullet is 670 m/s. The barrel is pointed directly at
thecenter of the bull's-eye, but the bullet strikes the
target0.025m below the center. What is the horizontal distance
betweenthe end of the rifel and the bull's eye?
Answer:
The horizontal distance is 478.38 m
Solution:
As per the question:
Initial Speed of the bullet in horizontal direction, [tex]v_{x} = 670 m/s[/tex]
Initial vertical velocity of the bullet, [tex]v_{y} = 0 m/s[/tex]
Vertical distance, y = 0.025 m
Now, for the horizontal distance, 'x':
We first calculate time, t:
[tex]y = v_{y}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}[/tex]
(since, motion is vertically downwards under the action of 'g')
[tex]0.025 = 0 - \frac{1}{2}\times 9.8t^{2}[/tex]
[tex]t = \sqrt{0.05}{9.8} = 0.0714 s[/tex]
Now, the horizontal distance, x:
[tex]x = v_{x}t + \frac{1}{2}a_{x}t^{2}[/tex]
[tex]x = v_{x}t + \frac{1}{2}0.t^{2}[/tex]
(since, the horizontal acceleration will always be 0)
[tex]x = 670\times 0.714 = 478.38 m[/tex]
