A rescue pilot wishes to drop a package of emergency supplies so that it lands as close as possible to a target. If the plane travels with a velocity of 18 m/s and is flying 225 m above the target, how far away (horizontally) from the target must the rescue pilot drop the package?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 121.86 m

Explanation:

It is given that,

The vertical velocity of a plane, [tex]v_x=18\ m/s[/tex]

It is flying above the target, h = 225 m

First we will find the time taken by the plane to reach the ground. It can be calculated using the second equation of motion as follow :

[tex]h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]

Here, u = 0 and a = g

[tex]h=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{g}} \\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 225}{9.81}} \\\\t=6.77\ s[/tex]

Let x is the horizontal distance from the target. It can be calculated as follows :

[tex]x=v_xt\\\\x=18\times 6.77\\\\x=121.86\ m[/tex]

So, the rescue pilot drop the package at a distance of 121.86 m from the target.

Сл A dense nucleus with protons and neutrons in the center of the atom. The electrons are found in "electron clouds" which surround the nucleus. Electron cloud show where electrons are likely to be, but not exactly where they are.

Explanation:

1 Solid ball, no subatomic particles. This model was proposed by some Greek Philosophers and John Dalton in 1803. That matter was made up of small indivisible substances called atoms.

4 Solid ball of positive materials with electrons scattered throughout. (Plum Pudding Model). This model was proposed by JJ Thomson in 1904. That the atom contained a large positively charged ball with negative charges scattered about.

3 # The atom is mostly empty space. A dense nucleus with protons and neutrons is in the center and electrons travel around it randomly. This model was proposed by Ernest Rutherford in 1911. The center of the atom was dense and positively charged with protons and neutrons surrounded by electrons orbiting it and most of the space between the nucleus and the electron orbit empty.

2 A dense nucleus with protons and neutrons is in the center of the atom. The electrons travel around the nucleus in distinct energy levels. This model was proposed by Niels Bohr in 1913. This was due to the fact that atoms only emit light at certain wavelengths which would imply that they have discrete energy levels which the electrons are contained in.

Сл A dense nucleus with protons and neutrons in the center of the atom. The electrons are found in "electron clouds" which surround the nucleus. Electron cloud show where electrons are likely to be, but not exactly where they are. This model was proposed by Erwin Schrodinger in 1926 through the solution of the Schrodinger wave equation. The position of the electron is assumed to to be a probability in an electron cloud.

If Thor throws his axe horizontally at a velocity of 50 m/s at and a height of 20 m, how long does it take before it hits the ground? (gravity is 9.8 m/s^2)

Answers

Answer:

The time taken before the axe hits the ground is 0.385 s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity, u = 50 m/s

height above ground, h = 20 m

To determine the time taken before the axe hits the ground, apply the following kinematic equation;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

20 = 50t + ¹/₂(9.8)t²

20 = 50t + 4.9t²

4.9t² + 50t - 20 = 0

Solve this quadratic equation;

a = 4.9, b = 50, c = -20

t = 0.385 s

Therefore, the time taken before the axe hits the ground is 0.385 s.

According to Rahul any two bricks tied together would fall faster than a single
one under the action of gravity by neglecting air resistance. Do you agree with
Rahul? Give a reason to support your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Rahul is wrong.

Explanation:

From Newton's universal law of gravitation, we know that the force of attraction between two falling body masses is directly proportional to product of masses of two bodies and has an inverse proportional relation with the square of the distance between the masses.

If the 2 masses are M1 & M2, while distance between them is d, this can be written as;

F ∝ M1•M2

And F ∝ 1/d²

We also know that the acceleration due to gravity is given as;

g = GM/r²

Where;

M is the mass of earth

r is the radius of earth

From the above 3 formulas, we can deduce that the value of the acceleration due to gravity(g) is independent of the 2 masses of the falling body as it depends on only the mass of the earth and radius of the earth.

This means that the acceleration due to gravity will be the same whether the bricks are doubled or whether it remains single.

Thus, they will fall with same velocity in each case. So Rahul is wrong.

d) The trampoline pushes back up on the gymnast.

Answers

Answer:

d) The trampoline pushes back up on the gymnast.

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion; for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force. The action force and reaction force are reciprocal to one another i.e. they act oppositely to one another. The reaction force acts in an opposite direction to the action force and vice versa.

In this question, a gymnast pushed down on a trampoline during a routine. This is called the ACTION FORCE. In conformity to Newton's third law, the trampoline pushes back up on the gymnast. This opposite force is called the REACTION FORCE.

D) the trampoline pushes back up they gymnast

A physics student is adjusting the settings of their projectile launcher. If the VX =28 m/s and the Vy = 15 m/s, what is the magnitude of its velocity?32 m/s
13 m/s
43 m/s
1009 m/s

Answers

Answer:

The first choice (32m/s) is the closest to the answer

Explanation:

The magnitude of a vector is the distance between the initial and the end point of the vector.

Being Vx and Vy the horizontal and vertical components of the vector V respectively, the magnitude of V is calculated as:

[tex]\mid \vec{V} \mid =\sqrt{V_x^2+V_y^2}[/tex]

The components of the velocity of the physics student's projectile launcher are Vx=28 m/s and Vy=15 m/s.

Calculate the magnitude of the velocity:

[tex]\mid \vec{V} \mid =\sqrt{28^2+15^2}[/tex]

[tex]\mid \vec{V} \mid =\sqrt{784+225}[/tex]

[tex]\mid \vec{V} \mid =\sqrt{1009}[/tex]

[tex]\mid \vec{V} \mid =31.8 \ m/s[/tex]

a = 59N/68kg

If a ball is rolled down a frictionless inclined plane from a height of 3 feet, to what height would it roll up to on the other side?

Answers

Answer:

It will roll up to its initial height from which it rolled from on the first hill

Explanation:

The given information are;

The height from which the ball is rolled = 3 feet[

The equation of the potential energy of the ball as it rolled down the frictionless inclined plane is given by the following equation;

m × g × h₁ = 1/2 × m × v² + 1/2×[2/5× m × r²) × [v/r]

Where;

m = The mass of the ball

h = The from which the ball is rolled down

v = The velocity of the ball

r = The radius of the ball

Therefore, all the potential energy, m × g × h, is converted into kinetic energy when the ball reached the ground

Similarly, as the ball rolls up on the other side, by the principle of energy conservation, all the kinetic energy is transformed into potential energy as follows

1/2 × m × v² + 1/2×[2/5× m × r²) × [v/r] = m × g × h₂, therefore, we have;

1/2 × m × v² + 1/2×[2/5× m × r²) × [v/r] = m × g × h₁ =  m × g × h₂

Therefore since m × g × h₁ =  m × g × h₂, then h₁ = h₂, the ball rises to the same height it started rolling from on the first hill.

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance covered by the boat = 15m

Time taken = 8s

Unknown:

Distance covered by the boat in 40s  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we need to find the speed of the boat first;

    Speed = [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

Insert the parameters and solve;

    Speed  =[tex]\frac{15}{8}[/tex] m/s

Now;

The boat will travel;    

    Distance  = speed x time

    Distance =   [tex]\frac{15}{8}[/tex]  x 40  = 75m

sliding friction (1) between the car and the ground is?

Answers

Answer:

0.07

Explanation:

Huge Brain

Coefficient of friction between the car and the ground will be 0.07.    

    Given in the question,

Mass of the car 'm' = 3000 kgForce 'F' by which the car is pulled = 11000 NAcceleration 'a' by which the car gets accelerated = 3 meters per second²

Force applied on the car by which the car is accelerated,

F = ma

  = 3000 × 3

  = 9000 N

Force [tex]F_k[/tex] to overcome the friction = 11000 - 9000

                                                         = 2000 N

Gravitational force F' on the car = mg

                                                       = 3000(9.8)

                                                       = 29400 N

Since, [tex]\mu_k=\frac{F_k}{F'}[/tex]

                [tex]=\frac{2000}{29400}[/tex]

                [tex]=0.068[/tex]

                ≈ 0.07

   Therefore, coefficient of friction between the car and the ground will be 0.07.
