Answer:
Option "D" is the correct answer to the following question.
Explanation:
The gravitational potential energy of an item is determined by its mass, elevation, and gravitational acceleration. As a result, angular momentum and energy are preserved. The gravitational potential energy, on the other hand, varies with distance. When a consequence, kinetic energy varies during each orbit, resulting in a faster speed as a planet approaches the Sun.

A car is moving at a speed of 60 mi/hr (88 ft/sec) on a straight road when the driver steps on the brake pedal and begins decelerating at a constant rate of 10ft/s2 for 3 seconds. How far did the car go during this 3 second interval?
Answer:
219 ft
Explanation:
Here we can define the value t = 0s as the moment when the car starts decelerating.
At this point, the acceleration of the car is given by the equation:
A(t) = -10 ft/s^2
Where the negative sign is because the car is decelerating.
To get the velocity equation of the car, we integrate over time, to get:
V(t) = (-10 ft/s^2)*t + V0
Where V0 is the initial velocity of the car, we know that this is 88 ft/s
Then the velocity equation is:
V(t) = (-10 ft/s^2)*t + 88ft/s
To get the position equation we need to integrate again, this time we get:
P(t) = (1/2)*(-10 ft/s^2)*t^2 + (88ft/s)*t + P0
Where P0 is the initial position of the car, we do not know this, but it does not matter for now.
We want to find the total distance that the car traveled in a 3 seconds interval.
This will be equal to the difference in the position at t = 3s and the position at t = 0s
distance = P(3s) - P(0s)
= ( (1/2)*(-10 ft/s^2)*(3s)^2+ (88ft/s)*3s + P0) - ( (1/2)*(-10 ft/s^2)*(0s)^2 + (88ft/s)*0s + P0)
= ( (1/2)*(-10 ft/s^2)*9s^2+ (88ft/s)*3s + P0) - ( P0)
= (1/2)*(-10 ft/s^2)*9s^2+ (88ft/s)*3s = 219ft
The car advanced a distance of 219 ft in the 3 seconds interval.
What is the effect on range and maximum height of a projectile as the launch height, launch speed, and launch angle are increased?
Answer:
The highest point in the trajectory occurs at the midpoint of the path. This highest point increases as the angle increases. At a 75° launch angle, the maximum height is approximately 76 meters. However, a further increase in launch angle beyond this 75° angle will increase the peak height even more.

The cannon on a battleship can fire a shell a maximum distance of 33.0 km.
(a) Calculate the initial velocity of the shell.
Answer:
v = 804.23 m/s
Explanation:
Given that,
The maximum distance covered by a cannon, d = 33 km = 33000 m
We need to find the initial velocity of the shell. Let it is v. It can be calculated using the conservation of energy such that,
[tex]v=\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 33000} \\\\v=804.23\ m/s[/tex]
So, the initial velocity of the shell is 804.23 m/s.
A grade 12 Physics student shoots a basketball

a. Determine the vertical velocity of the ball
when it is at the level of the net. You
should get two answers.
Please show ALL steps
Answer:
7.84 m/s
Explanation:
Height, h = 2 m
Initial velocity, u = 10 m/s
Angle, A = 80°
(a) Let the time taken to go to the net is t.
Use second equation of motion
[tex]h = u t + 0.5 at^2\\\\- 2 = - 10 sin 80 t - 4.9 t^2\\\\4.9 t^2 + 9.8 t - 2 = 0 \\\\t= \frac{- 9.8\pm\sqrt{9.8^2 + 4\times 4.9\times 2}}{9.8}\\\\t = \frac{- 9.8 \pm 11.6}{9.8}\\\\t = - 2.2 s , 0.2 s[/tex]
Time cannot be negative.
So, t = 0.2 s
The vertical velocity at t = 0.2 s is
v = u + at
v = 10 sin 80 - 9.8 x0.2
v = 9.8 - 1.96 = 7.84 m/s

When air expands adiabatically (without gaining or losing heat), its pressure P and volume V are related by the equation PV1.4=C where C is a constant. Suppose that at a certain instant the volume is 420 cubic centimeters and the pressure is 99 kPa and is decreasing at a rate of 7 kPa/minute. At what rate in cubic centimeters per minute is the volume increasing at this instant?
Answer:
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=21.21cm^3/min[/tex]
Explanation:
We are given that
[tex]PV^{1.4}=C[/tex]
Where C=Constant
[tex]\frac{dP}{dt}=-7KPa/minute[/tex]
V=420 cubic cm and P=99KPa
We have to find the rate at which the volume increasing at this instant.
Differentiate w.r.t t
[tex]V^{1.4}\frac{dP}{dt}+1.4V^{0.4}P\frac{dV}{dt}=0[/tex]
Substitute the values
[tex](420)^{1.4}\times (-7)+1.4(420)^{0.4}(99)\frac{dV}{dt}=0[/tex]
[tex]1.4(420)^{0.4}(99)\frac{dV}{dt}=(420)^{1.4}\times (7)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{(420)^{1.4}\times (7)}{1.4(420)^{0.4}(99)}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=21.21cm^3/min[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]\dot V=2786.52~cm^3/min[/tex]
Explanation:
Given:
initial pressure during adiabatic expansion of air, [tex]P_1=99~kPa[/tex]
initial volume during the process, [tex]V_1=420~cm^3[/tex]
The adiabatic process is governed by the relation [tex]PV^{1.4}=C[/tex] ; where C is a constant.
Rate of decrease in pressure, [tex]\dot P=7~kPa/min[/tex]
Then the rate of change in volume, [tex]\dot V[/tex] can be determined as:
[tex]P_1.V_1^{1.4}=\dot P.\dot V^{1.4}[/tex]
[tex]99\times 420^{1.4}=7\times V^{1.4}[/tex]
[tex]\dot V=2786.52~cm^3/min[/tex]
[tex]\because P\propto\frac{1}{V}[/tex]

A 3.10 mol sample of an ideal diatomic gas expands adiabatically from a volume of 0.1550 m3 to 0.742 m3 . Initially the pressure was 1.00 atm.(a) Determine the initial and final temperatures.initial Kfinal K(b) Determine the change in internal energy. J(c) Determine the heat lost by the gas. J(d) Determine the work done on the gas. J
Answer:
a) Initial Temperature = 609.4 K and Final Temperature = 325.7 K
b) the change in internal energy is -18279.78 J
c) heat lost by the gas is zero or 0
d) the work done on the gas is -18279.78 J
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
P[tex]_i[/tex] = 1 atm = 101325 pascal
P[tex]_f[/tex] = ?
V[tex]_i[/tex] = 0.1550 m³
V[tex]_f[/tex] = 0.742 m³
we know that for an adiabatic process γ = 1.4
P[tex]_i[/tex]V[tex]_i^Y[/tex] = P[tex]_f[/tex]V[tex]_f^Y[/tex]
P[tex]_f[/tex] = P[tex]_i[/tex][tex]([/tex] V[tex]_i[/tex] / V[tex]_f[/tex] [tex])^Y[/tex]
we substitute
P[tex]_f[/tex] = 1 × [tex]([/tex] 0.1550 / 0.742 [tex])^{1.4[/tex]
= [tex]([/tex] 0.2088948787 [tex])^{1.4[/tex]
= 0.11166 atm
a) the initial and final temperatures
Initial temperature
T[tex]_i[/tex] = P[tex]_i[/tex]V[tex]_i[/tex] / nR
given that n = 3.10 mol
= ( 101325 × 0.1550 ) / ( 3.10 × 8.314 )
= 15705.375 / 25.7734
T[tex]_i[/tex] = 609.4 K
Final temperature
T[tex]_f[/tex] = P[tex]_f[/tex]V[tex]_f[/tex] / nR
= ( 0.11166 × 101325 × 0.742 ) / ( 3.10 × 8.314 )
= 8394.95 / 25.7734
= 325.7 K
Therefore, Initial Temperature = 609.4 K and Final Temperature = 325.7 K
b) the change in internal energy
ΔE[tex]_{int[/tex] = nC[tex]_v[/tex]ΔT
here, C[tex]_v[/tex] = ( 5/2 )R
ΔE[tex]_{int[/tex] = 3.10 × ( 5/2 )8.314 × ( 325.7 - 609.4 )
= -18279.78 J
Therefore, the change in internal energy is -18279.78 J
c) the heat lost by the gas
Since its an adiabatic process,
Q = 0
Therefore, heat lost by the gas is zero or 0
d) the work done on the gas
W = ΔE[tex]_{int[/tex] - Q
= -18279.78 J - 0
W = -18279.78 J
Therefore, the work done on the gas is -18279.78 J
a) The Initial Temperature and Final Temperature of gas are 601.68 K and 321.61 K respectively.
b) The change in internal energy is -18279.78 J.
c) The heat lost by the gas is zero.
d) The work done on the gas is -18279.78 J.
Given data:
The moles of sample is, n = 3.10 mol.
The initial volume of sample is, [tex]V_{1}=0.1550 \;\rm m^{3}[/tex].
The final volume of sample is, [tex]V_{2}=0.742 \;\rm m^{3}[/tex].
The initial pressure of the sample is, [tex]P_{1}=1.00 \;\rm atm[/tex].
(a)
We know that the relation between the pressure and volume for an adiabatic process is as follows,
[tex]P_{1}V_{1}^{\gamma} = P_{2}V_{2}^{\gamma}[/tex]
Here, [tex]\gamma[/tex] is a adiabatic index. And for air, its value is 1.41.
Solving as,
[tex]P_{2}=P_{1} \times\dfrac{V_{1}^{\gamma}}{V_{2}^{\gamma}}\\\\\\P_{2}=1.00 \times\dfrac{0.1550^{1.41}}{0.742^{1.41}}\\\\\\P_{2} = 0.11166 \;\rm atm[/tex]
Now, calculate the final temperature using the ideal gas equation as,
[tex]P_{2}V_{2}=nRT_{2}\\\\T_{2}= \dfrac{P_{2} \times V_{2}}{nR}\\\\T_{2}= \dfrac{0.11166 \times 10^{5}\times 0.742}{3.10 \times 8.31}\\\\T_{2}=321.61 \;\rm K[/tex]
Similarly, calculate the initial temperature as,
[tex]P_{1}V_{1}=nRT_{1}\\\\T_{1}= \dfrac{P_{1} \times V_{1}}{nR}\\\\T_{1}= \dfrac{1 \times 10^{5}\times 0.1550}{3.10 \times 8.31}\\\\T_{1}=601.68 \;\rm K[/tex]
Thus, we can conclude that the initial and final temperature of the gas is 601.68 K and 321.61 K respectively.
(b)
The change in internal energy is given as,
ΔE = nCΔT
here, C = ( 5/2 )R
ΔE = 3.10 × ( 5/2 )8.314 × ( 325.7 - 609.4 )
= -18279.78 J
Therefore, the change in internal energy is -18279.78 J.
c)
The heat lost by the gas . Since its an adiabatic process, so there will be no heat interaction.
Q = 0
Therefore, heat lost by the gas is zero or 0
d)
The work done on the gas
W = ΔE - Q
W = -18279.78 J - 0
W = -18279.78 J
Therefore, the work done on the gas is -18279.78 J.

Answer:
Plastic
Explanation:
Shear Modulus can be defined as the ratio of shear stress to shear strain with respect to a physical object.
This ultimately implies that, Shear Modulus arises as a result of the application of a shear force on an object or body which eventually leads to its deformation. Thus, this phenomenon is simply used by scientists to measure or determine the rigidity of an object or body.
Fluids in which the shear stress must reach certain minimum value (yield stress) before flow commences are called plastic. Thus, a plastic would only begin to flow when its shear stress attain a certain minimum value (yield stress). The unit of measurement of yield stress is usually mega pascal (MPa).

A student has to work the following problem: A block is being pulled along at constant speed on a horizontal surface a distance d by a rope supplying a force F at an angle of elevation q. The surface has a frictional force acting during this motion. How much work was done by friction during this motion? The student calculates the value to be –Fd sinq. How does this value compare to the correct value?
a. It is the correct value.
b. It is too high.
c. It is too low.
d. The answer cannot be found until it is known whether q is greater than, less than, or equal to 45°.
Answer:
D
The answer cannot be found until it is known whether q is greater than, less than, or equal to 45°.
Explanation:
Since block moves with constant speed
So, frictional force
f = FCosq
Work done by friction
W = - fd
W = - fd Cos q
The answer may be greater or less than - fdSinq. It depends on the value of q which is less than, or equal to 45°.
Find the force on a negative charge that is placed midway between two equal positive charges. All charges have the same magnitude.
Answer: The force on a negative charge that is placed midway between two equal positive charges is zero when all charges have the same magnitude.
Explanation:
Let us assume that
[tex]q_{1} = q_{2} = +q[/tex]
[tex]q_{3} = -q[/tex]
As [tex]q_{3}[/tex] is the negative charge and placed midway between two equal positive charges ([tex]q_{1}[/tex] and [tex]q_{2}[/tex]).
Total distance between [tex]q_{1}[/tex] and [tex]q_{2}[/tex] is 2r. This means that the distance between [tex]q_{1}[/tex] and [tex]q_{3}[/tex], [tex]q_{2}[/tex] and [tex]q_{3}[/tex] = d = r
Now, force action on charge [tex]q_{3}[/tex] due to [tex]q_{1}[/tex] is as follows.
[tex]F_{31} = k(\frac{q_{1} \times q_{3}}{d^{2}})[/tex]
where,
k = electrostatic constant = [tex]9 \times 10^{9} Nm^{2}/C^{2}[/tex]
Substitute the values into above formula as follows.
[tex]F_{31} = k(\frac{q_{1} \times q_{3}}{d^{2}})\\= 9 \times 10^{9} (\frac{q \times (-q)}{r^{2}})\\= - 9 \times 10^{9} (\frac{q^{2}}{r^{2}})[/tex] ... (1)
Similarly, force acting on [tex]q_{3}[/tex] due to [tex]q_{1}[/tex] is as follows.
[tex]F_{32} = k \frac{q_{2}q_{3}}{d^{2}}\\= -9 \times 10^{9} \frac{q^{2}}{r^{2}}\\[/tex] ... (2)
As both the forces represented in equation (1) and (2) are same and equal in magnitude. This means that the net force acting on charge [tex]q_{3}[/tex] is zero.
Thus, we can conclude that the force on a negative charge that is placed midway between two equal positive charges is zero when all charges have the same magnitude.
