1517.4 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the projectile broke up at the peak of its flight, it already traveled half its initial range so we can find its initial launch velocity [tex]v_0[/tex] from the equation
[tex]\frac{1}{2}R= \dfrac{1}{2} \left(\dfrac{v_0^2}{g}\sin 2\theta_0 \right)[/tex]
where [tex]\theta_0 = 45°[/tex] and [tex]\frac{1}{2}R = 50\:\text{m}[/tex] so we will get [tex]v_0=31.3\:\text{m/s}[/tex]. Next, we can use the equation
[tex]v_y = v_0y - gt = v_0 \sin 45 - gt[/tex]
and since [tex]v_y=0[/tex] at its peak, we get t = 22.1 s. Let's set this aside for a moment and we'll use it later.
At the top of its peak, we can use the conservation law of linear momentum. Let M be the mass if of the original projectile, [tex]m_1[/tex] be the mass of the larger fragment (2 kg) and [tex]m_2[/tex] be the mass of the smaller fragment (1 kg). We can write the conservation law as
[tex]Mv_0x = m_1V_1 + m_2V_2[/tex]
where [tex]V_1\:\text{and}\:V_2[/tex] are the velocities of the fragments immediately after the break up. But we also know that [tex]V_1=0[/tex] so the velocity of [tex]m_2[/tex] can be calculated from the conservation law as
[tex]Mv_0 \cos 45° = m_2V_2[/tex]
or
[tex]V_2 = \dfrac{M}{m_2}v_0 \cos 45° = 66.4\:\text{m/s}[/tex]
Now we can calculate the horizontal distance the smaller fragment traveled after the break up. Recall that the amount of time for it to go up is also the amount of time to get down so the horizontal distance x is
[tex]x = V_2 t = (66.4\:\text{m/s})(22.1\:\text{s})= 1467.4\:\text{m}[/tex]
Therefore, the total distance traveled from the launch point is
[tex]D = 50\:\text{m} + 1467.4\:\text{m}=1517.4\:\text{m}[/tex]
a particle of mass m=375 g is launched with velocity of A =4 moves with a length AB=2.5m under the action of tractive force F=3.46 N making an angle 30. during its motion between A and B which is subjected to a frictional force f=1.5 N
calculate V of B by applying the kinetic energy theorem
Answer:
The final speed is 5.78 m/s.
Explanation:
mass, m = 375 g = 0.375 kg
initial velocity, u = 4 m/s
Distance, s = 2.5 m
Angle, A = 30 degree
Force, F = 1.5 N
let the final velocity is v.
Use the work energy theorem
Work done = change in kinetic energy
[tex]W= 0.5 m(v^2 - u^2)\\\\F s cos A= 0.5 m (v^2 - u^2)\\\\1.5\times 2.5\times cos30= 0.5\times 0.375\times (v^2 - 16)\\\\v = 5.78 m/s[/tex]
Henry, whose mass is 95 kg, stands on a bathroom scale in an elevator. The scale reads 830 N for the first 3.6 s after the elevator starts moving, then 930 N for the next 3.6 s.
What is the elevator's velocity 4.0 s after starting?
Answer: [tex]3.816\ m/s[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
Mass of Henry is 95 kg
Normal weight of Henry is [tex]mg=95\times 9.8=931\ N[/tex]
The scale reads the weight as 830 N for first 3.6 s i.e. less than the normal weight i.e. Elevator is moving downwards
Apparent weight is given by
[tex]\Rightarrow 830=m(g-a)\quad [a=\text{acceleration of elevator}]\\\Rightarrow 830=95(9.8-a)\\\Rightarrow 8.736=9.8-a\\\Rightarrow a=1.06\ m/s^2[/tex]
After 3.6 s weight becomes 930 N which is approximately equal to normal weight. It implies elevator starts moving with constant velocity i.e. no acceleration.
If elevator starts from rest, it velocity after 3.6 s is
[tex]v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+1.06(3.6)\\\Rightarrow v=3.816\ m/s[/tex]
This velocity will remain continues as after 3.6 s, elevator starts moving with constant velocity.
A box with mass 25.14 kg is sliding at rest from the top of the slope with height 13.30 m
and slope angle 30 degree, suppose the coefficient of friction of the slope surface is
0.25, find (neglect air resistance,take g=10 m/s^2)
The friction force experienced by the box.
00) The acceleration of the box along the slope.
(1) The time T required for the object to reach the bottom of the slope from the slope top.
Answer:
Explanation:
The first thing we are asked to find is the Force experienced by the box. That is found in the formula:
F - f = ma where F is the force exerted by the box, f is the friction opposing the box, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration (NOT the same as the pull of gravity). But F can be rewritten in terms of the angle of inclination also:
[tex]wsin\theta-f=ma[/tex] where w is the weight of the box. We will use this version of the formula because it will help us answer the second question, which is to solve for a. Filling in:
First we need the weight of the box. Having the mass, we find the weight:
w = mg so
w = 25.14(10) so
w = 251.4 N (I am not paying any attention at all to the sig fig's here, since I noticed no one on this site does!) Now we have the weight. Filling that in:
251.4sin(30) - f = ma Before we go on to fill in for f, let's answer the first question. F = 251.4sin(30) so
F = 125.7 And in order to answer what a is equal to, we find f:
f = μ[tex]F_n[/tex] where Fn is the weight of the object.
f = .25(251.4) so
f = 62.85. Filling everything in now altogether to solve for a, the only missing value:
125.7 - 62.85 = 25.14a and
62.85 = 25.14a so
a = 2.5 m/s/s
Now we have to move on to another set of equations to answer the last part. The last part involves the y-dimension. In this dimension, what we know is that
a = -10 m/s/s
v₀ = 0 (it starts from rest)
Δx = -13.30 m (negative because the box falls this fr below the point fro which it started). Putting all that together in the equation for displacement:
Δx = v₀t + [tex]\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex] and we are solving for time:
[tex]-13.30=0t+\frac{1}{2}(-10)t^2[/tex] and
[tex]t=\sqrt{\frac{2(-13.30)}{-10} }[/tex] so
t = 1.6 seconds to reach the bottom of the slope from 13.30 m high.
A particle moves along a straight line. Its position at any instant is given by x = 32t− 38t^3/3 where x is in metre and t in second. Find the acceleration of the particle at the instant when particle is at rest.
Answer:
The acceleration of the object is -69.78 m/s²
Explanation:
Given;
postion of the particle:
[tex]x = 32t - 38\frac{t^3}{3} \\\\[/tex]
The velocity of the particle is calculated as the change in the position of the particle with time;
[tex]v = \frac{dx}{dt} = 32 - 38t^2\\\\when \ the \ particle \ is \ at \ rest, \ v = 0\\\\32-38t^2 = 0\\\\38t^2 = 32\\\\t^2 = \frac{32}{38} \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{32}{38} } \\\\t = 0.918 \ s[/tex]
Acceleration is the change in velocity with time;
[tex]a = \frac{dv}{dt} = -76t\\\\recall , \ t = 0.918 \ s\\\\a = -76(0.918)\\\\a = -69.78 \ m/s^2[/tex]
An object starts to rotate about an axis from rest wih a, uniform angular acceleration of 2pi rads-2 what is the no.of rotations it can complete in 5s
Answer:
θ = 12.5 rotations
Explanation:
The number of rotations can be found by using the second equation of motion:
[tex]\theta = \omega_i t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2\\\\[/tex]
where,
[tex]\theta[/tex] = angular displacement = ?
ωi = initial angular speed = 0 rad/s
t = time = 5 s
α = angular acceleration = 2π rad/s²
Therefore,
[tex]\theta = (0\ rad/s)(5\ s)+\frac{1}{2}(2\pi\ rad/s^2)(5\ s)^2\\\\\theta = 78.54\ rad[/tex]
converting it to no. or rotations:
[tex]\theta = (78.54\ rad)(\frac{1\ rotation}{2\pi\ rad})[/tex]
θ = 12.5 rotations
A student on a new planet wants to determine the value of gravity on that planet. Luckily for them they brought equipment that they can use to set up an oscillating spring or an oscillating pendulum. Which procedure would allow the student to determine the value of gravity on the new planet
Answer:
By measure the effective length and the time period of the pendulum.
Explanation:
Let the student take the oscillating pendulum at the planet.
He measure the time period of the pendulum by using the stop watch or the ordinary watch.
Then measure the effective length of the pendulum which is the distance between the center of gravity of the bob and the point of suspension of the pendulum.
Now, use the formula of the time period of the pendulum,
[tex]T =2\pi\sqrt\frac{L}{g}[/tex]
Here, L is the effective length of the pendulum, g is the acceleration due to gravity at the planet and T is time period of the pendulum.
By rearranging the terms, we get
[tex]T =2\pi\sqrt\frac{L}{g}\\\\T^{2}=4\pi^2\times\frac{L}{g}\\\\g =\frac{4\pi^2L}{T^2}[/tex]
Here, by substituting the values of L and T, the student get the value of acceleration due to gravity at that planet.

Answer:

Explanation:
To understand the nature of electric current and the conditions under which it exists.Electric current is defined as the motion of electric charge through a conductor. Conductors are materials that contain movable charged particles. In metals, the most commonly used conductors, such charged particles are electrons. The more electrons that pass through a cross section of a conductor per second, the greater the current. The conventional definition of current isI=Qtotal/Δtwhere I is the current in a conductor and Qtotalis the total charge passing through a cross section of the conductor during the time interval Δt.The motion of free electrons in metals not subjected to an electric field is random: Even though the electrons move fairly rapidly, the net result of such motion is that Qtotal=0 (i.e., equal numbers of electrons pass through the cross section in opposite directions). However, when an electric field is imposed, the electrons continue in their random motion, but in addition, they tend to move in the direction of the force applied by the electric field.In summary, the two conditions for electric current in a material are the presence of movable charged particles in the material and the presence of an electric field.Quantitatively, the motion of electrons under the influence of an electric field is described by the drift speed, which tends to be much smaller than the speed of the random motion of the electrons. The number of electrons passing through a cross section of a conductor depends on the drift speed (which, in turn, is determined by both the microscopic structure of the material and the electric field) and the cross-sectional area of the conductor.In this problem, you will be offered several conceptual questions that will help you gain an understanding of electric current in metals.You are presented with several long cylinders made of different materials. Which of them are likely to be good conductors of electric current?
Answer:
The metallic conductors
Explanation:
The metallic conductors has more free electrons that are movable, thus they conduct electricity better.

explain how a lever can act as a force multiplier
Answer:
Example:Opening of a bottle cap by tool
when we hold a tool and open the bottle cap this is because , force x tool force .
The load arm is usually shorter than the effort arm in second order levers. Moving a large weight hence requires less effort. A force multiplier lever or effort multiplier lever is the name for this kind of lever. A boat's oars, for instance, can increase the force.
What is second order levers?Second-order levers are devices with the input force farthest from the fulcrum and the output force on the same side of the fulcrum. A wheelbarrow is an excellent illustration of a second-order lever.
A second-order lever will have an output force greater than an input force, similar to first-order levers. The output journey, however, will be shorter than the input length. Both the input and output forces in this situation will move in the same direction.

An object acted on by a constant force F moves from point 1 to point 2 and back again. The work done by the force F in this round trip is 60 J. Can you determine from this information if F is a conservative or nonconservative force?
Answer:
F is non-conservative.
If F were conservative no work would be done in moving back to the original point. F dot S = W if the net distance is zero the work done is zero for a conservative force
An object acted on by a constant force F moves from point 1 to point 2 and back again. The work done by the force F in this round trip is 60 J. Force, F is non-conservative.
What is force?A force is an effect that can alter an object's motion according to physics. An object with mass can change its velocity, or accelerate, as a result of a force. An obvious way to describe force is as a push or a pull. A force is a vector quantity since it has both magnitude and direction.
Moving back to the initial point wouldn't need any labor if F were a conservative function. Given that F.S = W, a conservative force does not exert any effort if the net distance is zero.
An object acted on by a constant force F moves from point 1 to point 2 and back again. The work done by the force F in this round trip is 60 J. Force, F is non-conservative.

Three forces are pulling on the same object such that the system is in equilibrium. Their magnitudes are F1 = 2.83 N.F= 3.35 N. and F3 = 3.64 N, and they make angles of 0, = 45.0°, 02 = -63.43 and 03 =164.05° with respect to the x-axis, respectively.
Required:
a. What is the x-component of the force vector F1?
b. What is the y-component of the force vector F1?
(a) 2.001N
(b) 2.001N
Explanation:A sketch of the scenario has been attached to this response.
Since only the force vector F₁ is required, the only force shown in the sketch is F₁.
As shown in the sketch;
The x-component of the force vector F₁ = [tex]F_{x}[/tex]
The y-component of the force vector F₁ = [tex]F_{y}[/tex]
The magnitude of F₁ as given in the question = 2.83N
The angle that the force makes with respect to the x-axis = 45.0°
Using the trigonometric ratio, we see that;
(a) cos 45.0° = [tex]\frac{F_x}{F_1}[/tex]
=> [tex]F_{x}[/tex] = F₁ cos 45.0°
=> [tex]F_{x}[/tex] = 2.83 cos 45.0°
=> [tex]F_{x}[/tex] = 2.83 x 0.7071
=> [tex]F_{x}[/tex] = 2.001N
(b) Also;
sin 45.0° = [tex]\frac{F_y}{F_1}[/tex]
=> [tex]F_{y}[/tex] = F₁ sin 45.0°
=> [tex]F_{y}[/tex] = 2.83 sin 45.0°
=> [tex]F_{y}[/tex] = 2.83 x 0.7071
=> [tex]F_{y}[/tex] = 2.001N
Therefore, the x-component and y-component of the force vector F₁ is 2.001N
The x and y component of vector F1 is mathematically given as
F_x = 2.001N
F_y= 2.001N
What is the x and y component of vector F1?Question Parameters:
Generally, the equation for the x-component is mathematically given as
x=Fsin\theta
Therefore
F_x = F₁ cos 45.0°
F_x = 2.83 x 0.7071
F_x = 2.001N
For y component
x=Fcos\theta
F_y = F₁ sin 45.0
F_y = 2.83 x 0.7071
F_y= 2.001N

A 3-kg ball is thrown with a speed of 10 m/s at an unknown angle above the horizontal. The ball attains a maximum height of 1.7 m before striking the ground. If air resistance is negligible, what is the value of the kinetic energy of the ball at its highest point?
Answer:
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is at an absolute max when the potential energy is 0. At the ball's highest point, at its most absolute highest point, the velocity of the ball is 0, making KE = 0 and PE the only energy the ball has. So if this isn't a trick question, the wording is off.
Honeybees acquire a charge while flying due to friction with the air. A 100 mg bee with a charge of 33 pC experiences an electric force in the earth's electric field, which is typically 100 N/C, directed downward.
1. What is the ratio of the electric force on the bee to the bee's weight?
2. What electric field strength would allow the bee to hang suspended in the air?
3. What electric field direction would allow the bee to hang suspended in the air?
Answer:
A) 3.367 × 10^(-6)
B) 2.97 × 10^(7) N/C
C) Upwards
Explanation:
We are given;
Mass of bee; m = 100 mg = 100 × 10^(-6) kg
Charge on bee;q=33 pC = 33 × 10^(-12)C
Electric field strength; E = 100 N/C
A) Formula for weight of bee; W = mg = 100 × 10^(-6) × 9.8 = 9.8 × 10^(-4) N
Electric force on Bee; F = qE = 33 × 10^(-12) × 100 = 33 × 10^(-10) N
ratio of the electric force on the bee to the bee's weight; F/W = (33 × 10^(-10))/(9.8 × 10^(-4)) = 3.367 × 10^(-6)
B) For the bee to be suspended in the air, it means the weight of the bee must be equal to the electric force. Thus;
mg = qE
100 × 10^(-6) × 9.8 = 33 × 10^(-12) × E
E = (100 × 10^(-6) × 9.8)/(33 × 10^(-12))
E = 2.97 × 10^(7) N/C
C) From Newton's law, sum of forces = 0.
Thus;
F_n + F + W = 0
Where F is the normal force.
Thus;
F_n = -(F + W)
F_n = - ((33 × 10^(-10)) + (9.8 × 10^(-4)))
F_n = -9.8 × 10^(-4) N
Thus, applied electric field is;
E_a = F_n/q = (-9.8 × 10^(-4))/(33 × 10^(-12)) = -2.97 × 10^(7) N/C
This is negative and so it means the direction will be opposite the Earth's electric filed which is upwards.

The parallel axis theorem relates Icm, the moment of inertia of an object about an axis passing through its center of mass, to Ip, the moment of inertia of the same object about a parallel axis passing through point p. The mathematical statement of the theorem is Ip=Icm+Md2, where d is the perpendicular distance from the center of mass to the axis that passes through point p, and M is the mass of the object. Part A Suppose a uniform slender rod has length L and mass m. The moment of inertia of the rod about about an axis that is perpendicular to the rod and that passes through its center of mass is given by Icm=112mL2.
Required:
Find Iend, the moment of inertia of the rod with respect to a parallel axis through one end of the rod.
Answer:
I = ⅓ m L²
Explanation:
They tell us to use the parallel axes theorem
I = [tex]I_{cm}[/tex] + M d²
The moment of inertia of a rod with respect to the center of mass is
I_{cm} = [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] m L²
the distance from the center of mass that coincides with its geometric center to the ends of the rod is
d = L / 2
we substitute
I =[tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] m L² + m (L/2)²
I = m L² ( [tex]\frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{4}[/tex] )
I = m L² ( [tex]\frac{1+3}{12}[/tex] )
I = ⅓ m L²
Bonnie and Clyde are sliding a 289 kg bank safe across the floor to their getaway car. The safe slides with a constant speed if Clyde pushes from behind with 387 N of force while Bonnie pulls forward on a rope with 341 N of force.
Required:
What is the safe's coefficient of kinetic friction on the bank floor?
Answer:

Explanation:
Applied force on the safe by Bonnie and Clyde is F= 387 N + 341 N
= 728 N
Given safe slides with constant speed .So, force of friction =applied force
= 728 N
μ*normal force = 728 N
from this the safes coefficient of kinetic friction on the bank floor is
μ = 728 N / normal force
= 728 N / Mg
= 728 N / ( 289 * 9.8 )
= 0.257

2.652 x 10⁻²⁵ J to 4.973 x 10⁻²⁵ J
Explanation:
The energy of a photon is calculated using the following equation;
E = hf
where;
h is Planck's constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ Js
f is frequency of the photon
[tex]E = h \frac{c}{\lambda} \\\\where;\\\\\lambda \ is \ the \ wavelength\\\\c \ is \ the \ speed \ of \ light \ = 3\times 10^8 \ m/s\\\\When \ \lambda = 400 \ mm = 400 \ \times 10^{-3} \ m\\\\E = \frac{(6.63 \times 10^{-34})(3\times 10^8)}{400 \times 10^{-3}} \\\\E = 4.973 \times 10^{-25} \ J[/tex]
[tex]When \ \lambda = 750 \ mm = 750 \ \times 10^{-3} \ m\\\\E = \frac{(6.63 \times 10^{-34})(3\times 10^8)}{750 \times 10^{-3}} \\\\E = 2.652 \times 10^{-25} \ J[/tex]
The range of the photon energies is between:
2.652 x 10⁻²⁵ J to 4.973 x 10⁻²⁵ J
A woman stands on a bathroom scale in a motionless elevator. When the elevator begins to move, the scale briefly reads only 0.64 of her regular weight. Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration of the elevator.
Answer:
The downwards acceleration is 3.53 m/s2.
Explanation:
Let the true weight is m g.
The reading of the balance, R = 0.64 mg
Let the acceleration is a.
As the apparent weight is less than the true weight so the elevator goes down wards with some acceleration.
Use Newton's second law
m g - R = m a
m g - 0.64 m g = m a
0.36 g = a
a = 3.53 m/s2
