A person walks first at a constant speed of 5.40 m/s along a straight line from point to point and then back along the line from to at a constant speed of 3.10 m/s. (a) What is her average speed over the entire trip

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The average speed over the entire trip is 3.94 m/s

Explanation:

As we know : [tex]speed=\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

Let the distance of straight line from point to point be = d

Total distance covered = 2d

Time taken to cover the forward journey = [tex]\frac{d}{5.40}[/tex]

Time taken to cover the backward journey = [tex]\frac{d}{3.10}[/tex]

Total time for the journey = Time taken to cover the forward journey  + Time taken to cover the backward journey  = [tex]\frac{d}{5.40}+\frac{d}{3.10}[/tex]

Average speed = [tex]\frac{\text {total distance}}{\text {total time}}=\frac{2d}{\frac{d}{5.40}+\frac{d}{3.10}}=3.94m/s[/tex]

Thus  average speed over the entire trip is 3.94 m/s

A 146N force is needed to pull a 350 N block across a horizontal surface at a constant speed by a rope making an angle of 50 degrees with the floor. Find the coefficient of friction.

Answers

Answer:

F = force

f = friction

u = coefficient of friction

R = normal reaction force

a = Acceleration

m = mass of block

g = gravity

f = uR

F = Ma

Say the block is moving to the right.

The 146N force thus acts to the right, and the friction force to the left, since it resists movement.  

The 146N force acts to the right, but the horizontal component of it is 146 cos 50  = 93.84: So this is the force to the right.

Since F = uR and we're trying to find u, we need both F and R. R is easy to get since it is just m x g. This is in fact already given as the weight 350N. So R = 350.

The block is moving at a constant speed, so the force to the right must = the force to the left.

F = ma, so 93.84 - f = (350/g) x 0

This means f must be 93.84 also.  

so  we have f = uR,  

      93.84 = u x 350

so u = 0.268 or  

0.27 to 2dp.  

Hope you understand this.

Explanation:

The coefficient of friction is 0.26 if the 46N force is needed to pull a 350 N block across a horizontal surface at a constant speed by a rope making an angle of 50 degrees with the floor.

What is the friction force?

It is a type of opposition force acting on the surface of the body that tries to oppose the motion of the body. its unit is Newton (N). Mathematically it is defined as the product of the coefficient of friction and normal reaction.

We know:

f = uR

Where f is the friction force and u is the coefficient of friction, R is the normal reaction force.

The horizontal component of 146N is:

F' = 146cos50°

F' = 93.84 N

Since F  = mass×acceleration

Because the block is traveling at a constant speed, the right-hand force must equal the left-hand force.

F' = f = 93.84 N

93.84 = u x 350   (R = 350N)

u = 0.26

Thus, the coefficient of friction is 0.26 if the 46N force is needed to pull a 350 N block across a horizontal surface at a constant speed by a rope making an angle of 50 degrees with the floor.

A person is standing on and facing the front of a stationary skateboard while holding a construction brick. The mass of the person is 67.0 kg, the mass of the skateboard is 4.10 kg, and the mass of the brick is 2.50 kg. If the person throws the brick forward (in the direction they are facing) with a speed of 23.0 m/s relative to the skateboard and we ignore friction, determine the recoil speed of the person and the skateboard, relative to the ground.

Answers

Answer:

    v₁ = -0.8087 m / s

Explanation:

To solve this problem we can use the conservation of momentum, for this we define a system formed by the man, the skateboard and the brick, therefore the force during the separation is internal and the momentum is conserved

Initial instant. When they are united

        p₀ = 0

Final moment. After throwing the brick

        [tex]p_{f}[/tex] = (m_man + m_skate) v1 + m_brick v2

the moment is preserved

        p₀ = p_{f}

        0 = (m_man + m_skate) v₁ + m_brick v₂

        v₁ = -  [tex]\frac{ m_{brick} }{m_{man} + m_{skate} } v_{2}[/tex]

the negative sign indicates that the two speeds are in the opposite direction

let's calculate

        v₁ = - [tex]\frac{2.5}{67 + 4.10} 23.0[/tex]

        v₁ = -0.8087 m / s

A 9.0 kg test rocket is fired vertically from Cape Canaveral. Its fuel gives it a kinetic energy of 1905 J by the time the rocket engine burns all of the fuel. What additional height will the rocket rise

Answers

Answer:

21.6m

Explanation:

Since the rocket engine burns all the fuel hence the kinetic energy will be converted to potential energy

Potential Energy = mass × acceleration due to gravity × height

Given

PE = 1905J

Mass = 9.0kg

Acceleration due to gravity =9.8m/s²

Required

Height h

Substitute into the formula

1905 = 9(9.8)h

1905 = 88.2h

h =1905/88.3

h = 21.6m

Hence the required height is 21.6m

A 200 kg motorcycle speeds at 90 mph (40 m/s) off of a highway overpass and lands on top of a 18,000 kg semi truck, which is traveling in the same direction at 65 mph (30 m/s). Assume both vehicles stick together are coasting without friction after the collision. What will be the final speed of the semi truck after the collision

Answers

Answer:

The final speed of the semi truck is 30.11 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the motorcycle, m₁ = 200 kg

initial speed of the motorcycle, u₁ = 40 m/s

mass of the semi truck , m₂ = 18,000 kg

initial speed of the semi truck, u₂ = 30 m/s (same direction as u₁)

If the two vehicles stick together after collision, the final speed of the motorcycle will be equal to final speed of the semi truck = v

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

(200 x 40) + (18,000 x 30) = v(200 + 18,000)

8000 + 540,000 = v(18,200)

548,000 = v(18,200)

[tex]v = \frac{548,000}{18,200} \\\\v = 30.11 \ m/s[/tex]

Therefore, the final speed of the semi truck is 30.11 m/s.

Consider the standing wave on a guitar string and the sound wave generated by the string as a result of this vibration. What do these two waves have in common

Answers

Answer:

As the string vibrates, it "moves" the particles in the air, generating what we know as a soundwave.

Because this soundwave is generated by the wave-like motion of the string, makes sense that the soundwave will have some characteristics in common with the standing wave on the guitar string. This means that both waves will have the same normal modes. (So if the principal mode of the vibrating string has a frequency of 440hz, to soundwave also will have that main frequency, and we will hear an A). You can hear almost all the normal modes when you pluck a guitar string, particularly in music, these are called "overtones" or "harmonics"

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{dI}{dt} =-3.04*10^-^4amps/sec[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Voltage change [tex]\frac{dv}{dt}=-0.03volts/sec[/tex]

Resistance change [tex]\frac{dR}{dt}=0.02ohms/sec[/tex]

Resistance [tex]R=100[/tex]

Current [tex]I=0.02[/tex]

Generally the equation for ohms law is mathematically represented as

[tex]V=IR[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]\frac{dv}{dt} =R\frac{dI}{dt} +I\frac{dR}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dv}{dt} =R\frac{dI}{dt} +I\frac{dR}{dt}[/tex]

Resolving the Rate of current changing [tex]\frac{dI}{dt}[/tex] as subject of formula

[tex]\frac{dv}{dt} =R\frac{dI}{dt} +I\frac{dR}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]R\frac{dI}{dt} =\frac{dv}{dt} -I\frac{dR}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dI}{dt} =\frac{1}{R} (\frac{dv}{dt} -I\frac{dR}{dt})[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]\frac{dI}{dt} =\frac{(-0.03) -(0.02)(0.02)}{100}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dI}{dt} =-3.04*10^-^4amps/sec[/tex]

Therefore the current decreases at a rate

[tex]\frac{dI}{dt} =3.04*10^-^4amps/sec[/tex]

One wave of 1 m amplitude meets another wave of 2 m amplitude. If they are exactly out of phase, what is the magnitude of the new amplitude

Answers

Answer:

1 m

Explanation:

Assuming both waves have the same frequency, and speed, this means that they have the same wavelength.If they are exacty out of phase, one will be at its maximum positive amplitude (crest), while the other will be at its maximum negative amplitude (trough), which means that the magnitude of the new amplitude will be the difference between both amplitudes, i.e., 1 m.If both waves had the same amplitude, the new amplitude would be just zero.

A block weighing 9.3 N requires a force of 3.7 N to push it along at constant velocity. What is the coefficient of friction for the surface

Answers

Answer:

0.398

Explanation:

According to friction, the frictional force is directly proportional to the normal reaction

Ff = nR

Ff is the frictional force

n is the coefficient of friction

R is the reaction

Reaction is equal to the weight

R= W = 9.3N

Fm = Ff = 3.7N

Fm is the moving force

Get the coefficient of friction

n = Ff/R

n = 3.7/9.3

n = 0.398

Hence the coefficient of friction for the surface is 0.398
