A heavy object and a light object are dropped from the same height. If we neglect air resistance, which will hit the ground first?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

None, both objects will hit ground at the same time.

Explanation:

Assuming no air resistance present, and that both objects start from rest, we can apply the following kinematic equation for the vertical displacement:

        [tex]\Delta h = \frac{1}{2}*g*t^{2} (1)[/tex]

As the left side in (1) is the same for both objects, the right side will be the same also.Since g is constant close to the surface of the Earth, it's also the same for both objects.So, the time t must be the same for both objects also.

Explanation:

An expression for the displacement as a function of time is x(t) = a sin wt.

What is Displacement?

Displacement is defined as the change in position of an object. It is a vector quantity and has a direction and magnitude. The spacing between two specified points is represented by displacement, a one-dimensional measure commonly known as length or distance.

Given in the question we have to find the displacement of the as function of time

The equation used of express displacement is.

d = V i t + 1 2 a t 2  

Displacement = Final position – initial position = change in position.

so, x = A sin wt is equation where A is amplitude and t is time period.

An expression for the displacement as a function of time is x(t) = a sin wt.

Thus, an expression for the displacement as a function of time is x(t) = a sin wt.

A wooden block contains some nails so that its density is exactly equal to that of water. If it is placed in a tank of water and released from rest when it is completely submerged, it will:_____.a. remain where it is released. b. rise to the surface. c. sink to the bottom.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is:

a) remain where it is released

Explanation:

The concept of density seeks to measure the weight of an object in relation to its size. It is the measure of how packed together the particles of that object are. An object placed in a liquid displaces a certain volume of the liquid, based on the relative density of the object and the liquid.

If an object is less dense than a liquid in which it is placed, it displaces a smaller volume of the liquid than its volume, hence only some part of the object will be seen to be under the liquid, the other part will float.

If an object is denser than the liquid in which it is placed, it displaces a larger volume of the liquid than its own volume, making the object to sink and is submerged, sometimes to the bottom of the liquid, but mostly below the point at which it was released.

Finally, if the density of an object and the liquid into which it is submerged is the same. the object's mass per unit volume is the same as the liquid's mass per unit volume, hence the weight and force created due to density will balance and cancel each other out hence making the object to remain where it was submerged.

To overcome an object's inertia, it must be acted upon by __________. A. gravity B. energy C. force D. acceleration

Answers

In order to overcome an object’s inertia (resistance to change), it must be acted upon by an unbalanced force, so the answer to the problem is letter C.
According to Newton's first law, the law of inertia, an object's velocity will not change unless it is acted upon by an outside force. This means that objects at rest tend to stay at rest, and objects in motion tend to stay in motion.

(a) Find the angular speed ω at which it is spinning.
[3 marks]
(b) Find the centripetal acceleration, ac with which it is spinning. [3 marks]
(c) What is the minimum coefficient of static friction µs between your shoes and
the floor that will keep you from slipping off?
[4 marks]

Answers

Answer:

(a) ω = 1.57 rad/s

(b) ac = 4.92 m/s²

(c) μs = 0.5

Explanation:

(a)

The angular speed of the merry go-round can be found as follows:

ω = 2πf

where,

ω = angular speed = ?

f = frequency = 0.25 rev/s

Therefore,

ω = (2π)(0.25 rev/s)

ω = 1.57 rad/s

(b)

The centripetal acceleration can be found as:

ac = v²/R

but,

v = Rω

Therefore,

ac = (Rω)²/R

ac = Rω²

therefore,

ac = (2 m)(1.57 rad/s)²

ac = 4.92 m/s²

(c)

In order to avoid slipping the centripetal force must not exceed the frictional force between shoes and floor:

Centripetal Force = Frictional Force

m*ac = μs*R = μs*W

m*ac = μs*mg

ac = μs*g

μs = ac/g

μs = (4.92 m/s²)/(9.8 m/s²)

μs = 0.5

If total mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy, TME = KE + PE, and a roller coaster has 500 J of total mechanical energy. At the very beginning of the track the roller coaster has 500 J of potential energy, how much kinetic energy is there at the beginning of the track?

Answers

Answer:

As already mentioned, the mechanical energy of an object can be the result of its motion (i.e., kinetic energy) and/or the result of its stored energy of position (i.e., potential energy). The total amount of mechanical energy is merely the sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy.

Explanation:

the change in resistance of a metallic conductor at temperature below 0°C is

A. Linear
B. Non linear
C. Curve
D. Curvilinear​

Answers

Answer:

A: Linear

Explanation:

Formula for Resistance of a metallic conductor is given as;

R = R_o(1 + αΔT)

Where;

R_o is the original resistance

R is the final resistance after change in temperature

ΔT is change in temperature

α is coefficient of linear expansion

Now, from the formula given, we can see that the change in resistance is directly proportional to the change in temperature.

Thus, the higher the final temperature, the more the change in resistance and the lower the final temperature, the lesser the change in resistance.

Thus, for temperature less than zero, since the change is resistance is directly proportional to the temperature, it means it follows a linear relationship.

The pupil of a cat's eye narrows to a slit width of 0.5 mm in daylight. What is the angular resolution of the cat's eye in daylight (wavelength = 500 nm)?
A. 0.01 rads
B. 10-5 rads
C. 10-3 rads
D. 10-4 rads

Answers

Answer:

C. 10⁻³ rads

Explanation:

Here, we shall use Rayleigh's Criterion to find out the angular resolution of Cat's eye during day light. Rayleigh's Criterion is written as follows:

θ = λ/a

where,

θ = angular resolution of Cat's eye = ?

λ = wavelength = 500 nm = 5 x 10⁻⁷ m

a = slit width of eye = 0.5 mm = 5 x 10⁻⁴ m

Therefore,

θ = (5 x 10⁻⁷ m/5 x 10⁻⁴ m)

Therefore,

θ = 0.001

θ = Sin⁻¹(0.001)

θ = 0.001 rad = 1 x 10⁻³ rad

Hence, the correct answer is:

C. 10⁻³ rads

A projectile is launched straight upward at 50 m/s. Neglecting air resistance its speed upon returning to its starting point is:________.

Answers

Answer:

The speed of the projectile upon returning to its starting point is 50 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the projectile, u = 50 m/s

The velocity of the projectile is maximum before hitting the ground. As the object moves upward, the velocity reduces as it approaches the maximum height, at the maximum height the velocity becomes zero. Also, as the object moves downward, the velocity starts to increase and becomes maximum before hitting the ground.

Therefore, the speed of the projectile upon returning to its starting point is 50 m/s.

The weight of a bucket is 186 N. The bucket is being raised by two ropes. The free-body diagram shows the forces acting on the bucket.


A free body diagram with 3 force vectors. The first vector is pointing downward, labeled F Subscript g Baseline = 186 N. The second vector is pointing up, labeled F Subscript 1 Baseline 105 N. The third vector is pointing upward from the tip of the second using the tail to tip method, labeled F Subscript 2 Baseline = 115 N. The combined two vectors pointing upward are shorter than the one pointing downward.


The acceleration of the bucket, to the nearest tenth, is

m/s2.

Answers

Answer:

1.8m/s^2

Explanation:

Since the two ropes are going up, their combined force is 105+115=220N. With a gravitational force of 186N, the force of the two ropes pulling up the will be 220-186=34N.

Now we need the mass of the bucket itself in order to find the acceleration of the bucket (remember that F=ma and m is needed to find a). Since gravitational acceleration is 9.8m/s^2 and F=186N, 186/9.8=18.97959184 kg for the mass of the bucket.

Now that we have the mass of the bucket, we can find the acceleration of the bucket. Since F=34N from earlier, 34N/18.97959184kg=1.791397849m/s^2=1.8m/s^2 is the acceleration of the bucket.

Therefore, 1.8m/s^2 is the correct answer.

An object of mass 3.4 kg is moving in a straight line with kinetic energy 59.177 J. A force is applied in the direction of its motion for 2.7 seconds, and as a result, its kinetic energy is multiplied by a factor of 1.57. By what factor is its momentum multiplied?

Answers

Answer:

Its momentum is multiplied by a factor of 1.25

Explanation:

First, we calculate the initial velocity of the object:

K = 0.5 * m * v₁²59.177 J = 0.5 * 3.4 kg * v₁²v₁ = 5.9 m/s

With that velocity we can calculate the initial momentum of the object:

p₁ = v₁ * mp₁ = 20.06 kg·m/s

Then we calculate the velocity of the object once its kinetic energy has increased:

(59.177 J) * 1.57 = 0.5 * 3.4 kg * v₂²v₂ = 7.4 m/s

And calculate the second momentum of the object:

p₂ = v₂ * mp₂ = 25.16 kg·m/s

Finally we calculate the factor:

p₂/p₁ = 1.25

A block of mass 500g is pulled from rest on ahorizontal frictionless bench by a steady force F and travels 8m in 2s find the acceleration?

Answers

We are Given:

Mass of the block (m) = 500 grams or 0.5 Kg

Initial velocity of the block (u) = 0 m/s

Distance travelled by the block (s) = 8 m

Time taken to cover 8 m (t)= 2 seconds

Acceleration of the block (a) = a m/s²

Solving for the acceleration:

From the seconds equation of motion:

s = ut + 1/2* (at²)

replacing the variables

8 = (0)(2) + 1/2(a)(2)²

8 = 2a

a = 4 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the block is 4 m/s²

Sully is riding a snowmobile on a flat, snow-covered surface with a constant velocity of 10 meters/second. The total mass of the snowmobile, including Sully, is 280 kilograms. If Sully accelerates to a velocity of 16 meters/second over 10 seconds, what’s the force exerted by the snowmobile to accelerate? Use F = ma, where . A. 160 N B. 168 N C. 248 N D. 280 N E. 324 N

Answers

Answer:

280.6N

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law;

Force = mass * acceleration

Given

Mass = 280kg

velocity = 10m/s

Time = 10 secs

Acceleration = velocity?/Time

Force = mass * velocity/time

Force = 280 + (16-10/10)

Force = 280 + 0.6

Force = 280.6N

Hence the force exerted by the snowmobile to accelerate is 280.6N

An 11-kilogram cart is pulled with a horizontal force at a constant velocity of 8.0 meters per second, as shown in the diagram. The force of friction between the cart and the floor is 12 newtons. What is the magnitude of the horizontal force?

Answers

The cart is pulled at a constant velocity, so it is in equilibrium. In particular, the net horizontal force is zero, and consists of only the pulling force and friction such that

p - f = 0

where p and f denote the magnitudes of the pulling force and friction.

So we have

p - 12 N = 0

p = 12 N
