Your spaceship lands on an unknown planet. To determine the characteristics of this planet, you drop a wrench from 3.50 m above the ground and measure that it hits the ground 0.809 s later.
Assuming that the planet has the same density as that of earth (5500 kg/m3), what is the radius of the planet?

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

By the formula,

[tex]s=ut+\frac12at^2[/tex]

[tex]-3.5=0+\frac12a(0.809)^2[/tex]

[tex]a=-10.659 ms^{-2}[/tex]

where a is the acceleration of objects by gravity.

We also know that by the Law of Gravitation,

[tex]F=-\frac{GMm}{r^2}=ma[/tex]

[tex]a=-\frac{GM}{r^2}[/tex]

The mass of the planet is given by

[tex]M=\rho V=\rho(\frac 43\pi r^3)[/tex]

So

[tex]a=-\frac{G(\rho\frac 43\pi R^3)}{r^2}= - \frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(5500)(\frac43)\pi R^3}{(R+3.5)^2} = -10.659[/tex]

Since R>>3.5, so we approximate

[tex](R+3.5)^2\approx R^2[/tex]

Solving the last equation,

[tex]R=6936.483 km[/tex]

Driving home from school one day, you spot a ball rolling out into the street . (See the figure below) You brake for 1.50 s , slowing your 950-kg car from 16.0 m/s to 9.50 m/s.

a)What was the magnitude of the average force exerted on your car during braking?

b)What was the direction of the average force exerted on your car during braking?

c)How far did you travel while braking?

Answers

Answer:

a) 4116.67 N

b) negative (assuming car is traveling in positive direction)

c) 19.125 m

Explanation:

Part A)

We can find the average force exerted on the car by using Newton's 2nd Law: F = ma.

We have the mass (950 kg) but we do not have the acceleration. Let's solve for this using kinematics.

We have the time during braking, the initial and final velocity, and we need to find the acceleration. To do this, we can use the following equation: v = v₀ + at.

v (final velocity) = 9.50 m/sv₀ (initial velocity) = 16.0 m/st (time) = 1.50 s a = ?

Substitute these values into the equation.

v = v₀ + at9.50 m/s = 16.0 m/s + a (1.50 s) 9.50 = 16.0 + 1.50a -6.50 = 1.50a a = -4.333333... m/s²

The car's acceleration during the braking period is -4.33 m/s², assuming the car is traveling in the positive direction.

Now, we can use this to plug into Newton's 2nd Law to find the force exerted on the car.

F = maF = (950 kg) (-4.33...) F = -4116.666667 N

The magnitude of the average force exerted on the car while braking is the absolute value, so it is 4116.67 N.

Part B)

The direction of the average force is denoted in the negative sign. It is opposite the direction of the car's motion. Assuming that the car is traveling in the positive direction, the direction of the average force exerted on the car is in the negative direction since this force is slowing the car down while braking.

Part C)

We can find the distance traveled during the braking period by using another kinematic equation.

We have the initial and final velocity, and the time traveled, so we can use this equation: Δx = v_avg · t.

Note that v_avg is the same thing as (v + v₀) / 2.

Substitute the known values into the equation.

Δx = [(9.50 + 16.0)/2] · 1.50 Δx = 12.75 · 1.50Δx = 19.125 m

The car traveled 19.125 m while braking.

A positively charged glass rod is bought close to a suspended metal needle. What
can we say about the charge on the needle given that the needle is
a) attracted ?
b) repelled ?

Answers

Answer:

attracted

Explanation:

opposite charges attract each other when the rub against each other

Answer:

This depends because the electrostatic force obeys the principle that states that force between both of the particles does not get affected by the charges of the other thus if the needle is getting attracted it possess negative charges( the opposite charge) .And if they repel it means they have the same charges ( positive charges).

A lad, waiting for his friend walks in the sidewalk, in front of her house, from the front door, first, he moves towards the Positive x-axis, 5 m, then goes back, 6 m. What is his total displacement from his original position? Displacement is a vector quantity whilst, distance is a scalar quantity.

Answers

His total displacement from his original position is -1 m

We know that total displacement of an object from a position x to a position x', d = final position - initial position.

d = x' - x

If we assume the lad's initial position in front of her house is x = 0 m. The lad then moves towards the positive x-axis, 5 m. He then ends up at x' = 5 m. He then finally goes back 6 m.

Since displacement = final position - initial position, and his displacement is d' = -6 m (since he moves in the negative x - direction or moves back) from his initial position of x' = 5 m.

His final position, x" after moving back 6 m is gotten from

x" - x' = -6 m

x" = -6 + x'

x" = -6 + 5

x" = -1 m

Thus, his total displacement from his original position is

d = final position - initial position

d = x" - x

d = -1 m - 0 m

d = -1 m

So, his total displacement from his original position is -1 m

(c) Now consider the man and his friend with identical mass of 67 kg are rowing the boat on a hot summer afternoon when they decide to go for a swim. The man jumps off the front of the boat at speed 3 m/s and his friend jumps off the back at speed 4 m/s. If the boat was moving forward at 1.5 m/s when they jumped, what is the speed of the boat after their jump?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

ai. com=(67*0+179*1.25)/(179+67)=0.91m

ii. com=(67*2.5+179*1.25)/(179+67)=1.59m

b. 0.91=(67(2.5-d)+179(1.25-d))/(179+67)

   d=0.68m

c. 1.5=(67*-3+67*-4+179*v)/(67+67+179)

    v=5.24m/s

The answers to your question are ;

A) Location of the center of the mass of system when origin of coordinate system is

i) On the original location of man = 0.91 m

ii) On back end of boat = 1.59 m

B) The boat is displaced by = 0.68 m

C) speed of boat after their jump ( V ) = 5.24 m/s

Given data :

mass of man = 67 kg

mass of boat = 179 kg

length of boat = 2.5 m

assumptions : No friction/drag force

Solutions

A) determine location of center of mass

i) On the man's original location = 0

= ( mass of man * 0 + mass * 1.25 ) / ( mass of boat + mass of man)

=  ( 0 + 179 * 1.25 ) /  ( 179 + 67 )

= ( 0 + 223.75 ) / ( 246 ) = 0.9096  ≈ 0.91 m

ii) On the back end of the boat

= ( mass of man * length of boat + mass of boat * 1.25 ) / ( mass of boat + mass of man )

= (  67 * 2.5 + 179 * 1.25 ) / ( 179 + 67 )

= ( 167.5 + 223.75 ) / ( 246 ) = 1.590 m

B) By How much is the boat displaced ( d )

0.91 ( location of center of mass from man's original location )

0.91  = (  67 *  (2.5 - d) +  179 (  1.25 - d ) ) / ( 179 + 67 )

        = ( 67 * ( 2.5 - d ) + 223.75 - 179d )) / ( 246 )

∴ d ≈ 0.68 m

C) Determine speed of boat after the jump

Initial speed of boat = 1.5 m/s

hence speed after the jump ( v )

speed of first man = 3 m/s

speed of second man = 4 m/s

1.5 m/s = ( 67 * -3 + 67 * -4 + 179 * v ) / ( 67 + 67 + 179 )

           = ( - 201 + -268 + 179v ) / ( 313 )

∴ v ≈ 5.24 m/s

Question 3 A woman sitting in a stationary car notices a man cycling past her at 40 km/hr. Five seconds after he passes her car, she starts following after him. What is the shortest possible distance in which she will catch up to the cyclist if he maintains hrs speep and she obeys the speed limit of 70 km/hr? The car has a maximum acceleration

Answers

The shortest possible distance in which she catches up with the man is 129.7 m.

The given parameters:

speed of the man, v₁ = 40 km/hr

speed of the woman, v₂ = 70 km/hr

time when the woman started moving, t₁ = 5 seconds

To find:

the shortest distance when she catches up with the man

Convert the given speed in km/h to m/s

3.6 km/h = 1 m/s40 km/h = 40/3.6 = 11.11 m/s70 km/h = 70/3.6 = 19.44 m/s

Calculate the distance moved by the man before she started following him.

Distance moved by the man = speed x time

                                                = 11.11 m/s  x  5 s

                                                = 55.55 m

Let the time the woman catches up with the man = t

Apply the following simple principle to calculate the time.

The man is moving forward and the woman is moving forward to close the gap between them, thus both speeds are working against each other.

[tex](v_2-v_1)t = 55.55 \ m[/tex]

the difference in the speed is because they are working against each other.

[tex](19.44 - 11.11)t = 55.55\\\\8.33t = 55.55\\\\t = \frac{55.55}{8.33} \\\\t = 6.67 \ s[/tex]

The time when the woman catches up with the man = 6.67 s

The shortest distance at which the woman catches up with the man is calculated as;

Shortest distance = woman's speed x time when she catches up

                               = 19.44 m/s    x  6.67 s

                               = 129.7 m

Thus, the shortest possible distance in which she catches up with the man is 129.7 m.

60.96 mi (5280ft/mi)(12 in/ft)(2.54 cm/in)(1 m/ 100cm)(1 km/1000 m) = 98.10561024 km

however, reporting this precision to the nearest hundred millionth of a kilometer is silly as we only know the mile dimension to the nearest hundredth of a mile.

A hundredth of a mile is 5280/100 = 52.8 ft or just over 16 m

This also fits neatly into the significant digits rule. Both the original dimension and the converted dimension have four significant digits.

Which of the following is NOT an important phenomenon that commonly erodes and weathers exposed rock outcrops to form sedimentary material?
a) Lightning
b) Wind
c) Rain
d) Freezing/Thawing

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

While each of these can cause erosion and weathering, lightning is probably the least important as it occurs less frequently and affects a much smaller surface area when it strikes.

Wind is not very effective by itself, but it can carry abrasives which work to degrade rock surfaces. It covers a very large area at once so the net effect can be moderate to large especially desert areas where plants are not readily available to disrupt the flow.

Rain covers huge areas and is quite common.

Freezing/Thawing cycles cover large areas and are quite common in the temperate and arctic latitudes and even in tropical altitudes.

Attached is a photo taken atop Half Dome in Yosemite National Park showing two of thousands of divots in the rock there caused by lightning strikes. The current in the lightning heats the stone causing water trapped in it to flash to steam. The increased pressure inside the stone can overwhelm the material strength and blow rock chunks over a fairly good sized area. This is a fairly rapid weathering and erosion when it occurs, but that is typically limited to a few dozen days per year and occurs mostly on high ground where lightning is more likely to strike earth.

You push yourself on a skateboard with a force of 30 N east and accelerate at 0.5 m/s² east. Find the mass of theskateboard if your mass is 58 kg.​

Answers

Answer:

2Kg

first you find the total mass of both the person und skateboard

f = m*a

30 = m* 0.5

m= 30/ 0.5

m= 60 kg

then you subtract the mass of the person from the total mass

m1 - m2

60 - 58

= 2 kg

Taking into account the Newton's second law, the mass of the skateboard is 2 kg.

Newton's Second Law establishes the relationship between the forces acting on an object and the acceleration it experiences. This law says that the acceleration that an object experiences when subjected to a net force (force applied to the body) is proportional to that force.

Mathematically, Newton's second law is expressed as:

F= m×a

where:

F = Force [N] m = Mass [kg] a = Acceleration [m/s²]

In this case, you know:

F= 30 N m= ? a= 0.5 m/s²

Replacing:

30 N= m× 0.5 m/s²

Solving:

m= 30 N÷0.5 m/s²

m= 60 kg

The mass of the sistem is the sum of the mass of the skateboard and the mass of the mass of your body:

Mass= mass of the skateboard + mass of your body

In this case:

60 kg= mass of the skateboard + 58 kg

Solving:

mass of the skateboard= 60 kg - 58 kg

mass of the skateboard= 2 kg

Finally, the mass of the skateboard is 2 kg.
