Two ropes are tied to a 50 kg boat. One pulls with a force of 120 N due West and the other rope pulls with a force of 140 N due South. Find the net force of the boat (magnitude and direction) and the acceleration.

Answers

Answer 1

The net force on the boat is the vector

F = (-120 N) i + (-140 N) j

where we take West and South to be the negative directions going left-and-right and up-and-down, respectively.

The magnitude of the net force is

F = √((-120 N)² + (-140 N)²) = 20 √(85) N ≈ 180 N

and its direction is

tan(θ) = (-140 N) / (-120 N)   →   θ ≈ -130°

relative to due East, or approximately 50° South of West.

If the stars at the turnoff point in a star cluster have masses of about four solar masses, how old is the cluster

Answers

Answer:

age of the cluster is 3.125 × 10⁸ years

Explanation:

Given that;

stars at the turnoff point in a star cluster have masses of about 4 solar masses

Age of the cluster?

we know that the main sequence lifetime of a star in solar lifetime(t) is related to the mass of the star in solar masses(M). expressed as

ζ = M^(-5/2)

our M is 4, so we substitute

ζ = 4^(-5/2)

ζ =  0.03125 solar lifetime

now convert the lifetime of star cluster into years

ζ = 0.03125 solar lifetime × (10¹⁰ years / 1 solar lifetime)

ζ = 312,500,000 ≈3.124 × 10⁸ years

therefore age of the cluster is 3.125 × 10⁸ years

In the Daytona 500 auto race, a Ford Thunderbird and a Mercedes Benz are moving side by side down a straightaway at

67.0 m/s. The driver of the Thunderbird realizes that she must make a pit stop, and she smoothly slows to a stop over a

distance of 250 m. She spends 5.00 s in the pit and then accelerates out, reaching her previous speed of 67.0 m/s after a

distance of 360 m. At this point how far has the Thunderbird fallen behind the Mercedes Benz, which has continued at a

constant speed?

Answers

Answer:

945 m

Explanation:

First of all let's find the first acceleration before the first stop. We will use Newton's 3rd equation of motion;

v² = u² + 2as

a = (v² - u²)/2s

In this first motion, the initial velocity is given as u = 67 m/s, while the final velocity which is the stop is v = 0 m/s and the distance is s = 250 m

Thus;

a = (0² - 67²)/(2 × 250)

a = -4489/500

a = -8.978 m/s²

Now, to get the time spent for this 250 m distance, we will use Newton's 2nd law of motion;

s = ut + ½at²

Plugging in the relevant values;

250 = 67t + ½(-8.978)t²

250 = 67t - 4.489t²

4.489t² - 67t + 250 = 0

Using quadratic formula, we will arrive at;

t = 7.463 s

Now, we are told that she accelerates out, reaching her previous speed of 67.0 m/s after a distance of 360 m. Thus, let's calculate the time it took to accelerate after a distance of 360 m.

Since she stayed from rest in this phase, then initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s.

Like in the first phase, we can find the acceleration from;

a = (v² - u²)/2s

a = (67² - 0²)/(2 × 360)

a = 4489/720

a = 6.235 m/s²

Thus, we can find the time for this 360 m phase by using; s = ut + ½at², we have;

360 = 0 + ½(6.235)t²

Multiply through by 2 to get;

6.235t² = 720

t² = 720/6.235

t² = 115.477145

t = √115.477145

t = 10.746 s

We are told that she spends 5 s in the pit. Thus;

Total time is;

t_total = 7.463 + 5 + 10.746

t_total = 23.209 s

Distance covered by the Mercedes Benz = 67 × 23.209 = 1555 m

Total distance covered by Thunderbird = 250 + 360 = 610 m

Thus, distance of Thunderbird behind Mercedes Benz is = 1555 - 610 = 945 m

A car accelerates in the +x direction from rest with a constant acceleration of a1 = 1.89 m/s^2 for t1 = 20 s. At that point the driver notices a tree limb that has fallen on the road and brakes hard for t2 s until it comes to a stop. Required:a. Write an expression for the car's speed just before the driver begins braking, v1.b. If the limb is on the road at a distance of 550 meters from where the car began its initial acceleration, will the car hit the limb?c. How far, in meters, from the original location of the limb will the car be when it stops?

Answers

Answer:

A.) 37.8 m/s

B.) No

C.) 172 m

Explanation:

Given that  car accelerates in the +x direction from rest with a constant acceleration of a1 = 1.89 m/s^2 for t1 = 20 s. At that point the driver notices a tree limb that has fallen on the road and brakes hard for t2 s until it comes to a stop. Required:

a.) Write an expression for the car's speed just before the driver begins braking, v1.

Since the car accelerate from rest, initial velocity U = 0

Using first equation of motion

V1 = U + at

V1 = 1.89 × 20

V1 = 37.8 m/s

b.) If the limb is on the road at a distance of 550 meters from where the car began its initial acceleration, will the car hit the limb?

Using third equation of motion

V^2 = U^2 + 2as

37.8^2 = 0 + 2 × 1.89 × S

1428.84 = 3.78S

S = 1428.84 / 3.78

S = 378m

Since the limb is on the road at a distance of 550 meters from where the car began its initial acceleration, we can therefore conclude that the car will not hit the limb.

c. How far, in meters, from the original location of the limb will the car be when it stops?

550 - 378 = 172 m

The car will be 172 metres from the limb.

What is the mass of a cylinder of silicon (in units of grams) that is 4.00 cm in diameter and 10.55 cm long?

Answers

Answer:

309.02g

Explanation:

According to the information given in this question, the cylinder has the following:

Mass = ?

Length/height = 10.55cm

Diameter = 4.00cm

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Where; π = pie (3.142 or 22/7)

r = radius (cm)

h = height

Note that, radius = diameter/2

Hence, radius (r) = 4.00/2

r = 2.00cm.

V = πr²h

V = 22/7 × 2² × 10.55

V = 22/7 × 42.2

V = 928.4/7

V = 132.628cm³

Density = mass/volume

Hence, mass = density × volume

Where density of silicon is 2.33g/cm³

Mass = 2.33g/cm³ × 132.628cm³

Mass = 309.02g

What value resistor will discharge a 2.60 μFμF capacitor to 20.0%% of its initial charge in 2.20 msms ? nothing Ω

Answers

Answer:

The value of resistor is 525.76 ohms

Explanation:

Given;

capacitance, C = 2.6 μF = 2.6 x 10⁻⁶ F

let the initial charge on the capacitor = Q₀

time , t = 2.2 ms = 2.2 x 10⁻³ s

The discharge of the capacitor is given by;

[tex]Q(t) = Q_oe^{-\frac{t}{RC} }[/tex]

Where;

Q(t) is the charge after 2.2ms = 20% of Q₀ = 0.2Q₀

[tex]Q(t) = Q_oe^{-\frac{t}{RC} }\\\\0.2Q_o = Q_oe^{-\frac{t}{RC} }\\\\0.2 = e^{-\frac{t}{RC} }\\\\ln(0.2) = -\frac{t}{RC}\\\\-1.6094 = -\frac{t}{RC}\\\\R = \frac{t}{1.6094C} \\\\R = \frac{2.2*10^{-3}}{1.6094*2.6*10^{-6}}\\\\R = 525.76 \ ohms[/tex]

Therefore, the value of resistor is 525.76 ohms

If everything else remains the same, but the charges of two objects are each doubled, the electrostatic force between them will be __________ times what it was before.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between the two charges is given by :

[tex]F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}[/tex]

d is the distance between two charges

k is electrostatic constant

When both charges are doubled, [tex]q_1'=2q_1\ \text{and}\ q_2'=2q_2[/tex], new force is given by :

[tex]F'=\dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{d^2}\\\\F'=\dfrac{k(2q_1)(2q_2)}{d^2}\\\\F'=4\times \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}\\\\F'=4F[/tex]

So, the electrostatic force between them will be four times what it was before.

A car accelerates from rest to 95 km/h in 5 seconds, what is the average acceleration of the car in m/s2

Answers

Answer:

The average acceleration of the car is 5.2778 [tex]\frac{m}{s^{2} }[/tex]

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is a magnitude that indicates how the speed of the object changes in a unit of time. That is, acceleration relates changes in velocity with the time in which they occur.

The expression for the calculation of the acceleration is:

[tex]acceleration=\frac{change of velocity}{time}[/tex]

In this case:

acceleration=?change of velocity= final velocity - initial velocity= 95 km/h - 0 km/h (because the car accelerates from rest)= 95 km/htime= 5 seconds

First, it is convenient to express the change in velocity in units of m/s, where 1 h = 3,600 s and 1 km = 1,000 m.

[tex]change of velocity= 95 \frac{km}{h} =95\frac{1,000 m}{3,600 s} =26.3889 \frac{m}{s}[/tex]

So, replacing in the definition of acceleration:

[tex]acceleration=\frac{26.3889\frac{m}{s} }{5 s}[/tex]

acceleration= 5.2778 [tex]\frac{m}{s^{2} }[/tex]

The average acceleration of the car is 5.2778 [tex]\frac{m}{s^{2} }[/tex]

The maximum energy a bone can absorb without breaking is surprisingly small. For a healthy human of mass 59 kg , experimental data show that the leg bones can absorb about 200 J . Part A From what maximum height could a person jump and land rigidly upright on both feet without breaking his legs

Answers

Answer:

0.35m

Explanation:

In this problem we want to solve for the height given the potential energy

the potential energy is the energy possessed  by a body by virtual of it position.

given data

mass m=59kg

PE(potential energy)= 200J

Height h=?

assuming g=9.81,/s^2

we know that the expression for potential energy is

PE=mgh

substituting we have

200=59*9.81*h

200=578.79h

divide both sides by 578.79

h=200/578.79

h=0.35m

Therefore the height is 0.35m

A helicopter of mass  [tex]1.40 *10^{3}[/tex] kg is descending vertically at 3.00 m/s. The pilot increases the upward thrust provided by the main rotor so that the vertical speed decreases to 0.450 m/s as the helicopter descends 5.00 m. What is the magnitude of the upward thrust force (assumed constant)?Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Answer:

The value is  [tex]F = 11257 \ N[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the helicopter is  [tex]m = 1.40 *10^{3} \ kg[/tex]

   The initial descending speed is [tex]u= 3.00 \ m/s[/tex]

   The  descending speed after the upward thrust has been increased is [tex]v = 0.450 \ m/s[/tex]

    The  height when descending speed is [tex]v = 0.450 \ m/s[/tex]  is  [tex]s = 5.0 \ m[/tex]

Generally according to the kinematics equations

   [tex]v^2 = u^2 + 2(a)s[/tex]

Here a is the acceleration due to gravity plus the acceleration of the helicopter

So

    a  =  [tex]a = -g + a_h[/tex]

the negative sign is due to the fact that the direction of the plane is in the negative y axis

So

       [tex]v^2 = u^2 + 2(-g + a_h)s[/tex]

=>    [tex]0.45^2  =  3^2  + 2(-9.9 + a_h) * 5[/tex]

=>   [tex]a_h = \frac{-8.7975}{5} + 9.8[/tex]    

=>   [tex]a_h = 8.0405 \ m/s^2[/tex]    

Generally the thrust force is mathematically represented as

     [tex]F = m * a_h[/tex]

=> [tex]F = 1.40 *10^{3} * 8.0405[/tex]

=> [tex]F = 11257 \ N[/tex]

A person weighing 200 pounds stands on snowshoes. If the area of each snowshoe is 400 square inches, the pressure on the snow is

Answers

Answer:

0.5 pounds per square inches (ibs/in²)

Explanation:

The pressure of an object refers to the force it exerts per unit area i.e. F/a. In this question, the force, F, is created by the weight, W, of the snowshoe. Hence, pressure is calculated thus:

P = W/A

Where; P = Pressure (ibs/in²)

W = Weight of object (ibs)

A = surface area (in²)

In this question, weight = 200 pounds, Area = 400 square inches

Hence, pressure = 200/400

Pressure (P) = 2/4

Pressure (P) = 0.5 ibs/in²
