A hiker walks 5.0 kilometers due north for twenty minutes. He turns due west and travels 12 kilometers in 60 more minutes. Then he walks 7.0 kilometers due north in forty minutes. What is the average speed of the hiker when traveling north?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The hikers average speed due north is 0.2 km per minute.

Explanation:

Speed is the ratio of distance moved by a body to the time taken.

i.e speed = [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

Since the hiker walks due north and due west, then his average speed due north can be determined by;

Average speed = [tex]\frac{total distance due north}{total time taken}[/tex]

Total distance due north = 5.0 + 7.0

                                  = 12.0 km

Total time taken = 20 + 40

                           = 60 minutes

                           = 1 hour

Average speed due north= [tex]\frac{12}{60}[/tex]

                          = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

                          = 0.2

Average speed due north = 0.2 km/minute

The hikers average speed due north is 0.2 km per minute.

Answers

Answer:

30,000kgm/s

Explanation:

Change in momentum is expressed as;

Change in momentum = mass × change in velocity

∆M = m∆v

Mass m = 1.5×10³kg = 1500kg

∆v = 30-10 =20m/s

Substitute into the formula

Change in momentum = 1500(20)

Change in momentum = 30,000kgm/s

How high did a worker lift a 25 kg bag of sand if it now has 2940 of gravitational potential energy

Answers

Answer:

12 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of bag = 25 kg

Potential energy (PE) = 2940 J

Height (h) =?

Objects carried to a particular height will always experience an acceleration due to gravity of 9.8 m/s².

With the above in mind, we can obtain the height to which the load is lifted to as shown below:

Mass (m) of bag = 25 kg

Potential energy (PE) = 2940 J

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s².

Height (h) =?

PE = mgh

2940 = 25 × 9.8 × h

2940 = 245 × h

Divide both side by 245

h = 2940 / 245

h = 12 m

Therefore, the worker lifts the load to a height of 12 m.

1/6 of that on Earth.
Which mass, on the Moon, would stretch the spring by the same extension?

Reasons too :(
igcse physics

Answers

Answer:

Mass = 18.0 kg

Explanation:

From Hooke's law,

F = ke

where: F is the force, k is the spring constant and e is the extension.

But, F = mg

So that,

mg = ke

On the Earth, let the gravitational force be 10 m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex].

3.0 x 10 = k x 5.0

30 = 5k

⇒ k = [tex]\frac{30}{5}[/tex] ................ 1

On the Moon, the gravitational force is [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] of that on the Earth.

m x [tex]\frac{10}{6}[/tex] = k x 5.0

[tex]\frac{10m}{6}[/tex] = 5k

⇒ k = [tex]\frac{10m}{30}[/tex] ............. 2

Equating 1 and 2, we have;

[tex]\frac{30}{5}[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{10m}{30}[/tex]

m = [tex]\frac{900}{50}[/tex]

    = 18.0

m = 18.0 kg

The mass required to produce the same extension on the Moon is 18 kg.

Answer:

18 kg

Explanation:

weight (N) = mass (kg) × gravitational acceleration (m/s²)force (N) = k (spring constant) × extension (m)

On Earth, acceleration of gravity is 10 m/s²

weight = 3.0 (kg) × 10 (m/s²)weight = 30 (N)

Since weight is a force, the force is 30 N. The value of spring constant is unknown

30 (N) = k × 5 (m)k = 6 (m/N)

Spring constant is 6. Now let's find the mass on the Moon

mass (kg) × gravitational acceleration (m/s²) = k (spring constant) × extension (m)

Gravitational acceleration of the moon is 1/6 of that on Earth. Earth's g = 10, so Moon's g = 10/6

m × 10/6 = 6 × 5m = 30/(10/6)m = 18

The mass is 18 kg

A horizontal pole is attached to the side of a building. There is a pivot P at the wall and a chain is connected from the end of the pole to a point higher up the wall. There is a tension force F in the chain. What is the moment of the force F about the pivot P?

Answers

Answer:

Fscos63

Explanation:

Given that a horizontal pole is attached to the side of a building. There is a pivot P at the wall and a chain is connected from the end of the pole to a point higher up the wall. There is a tension force F in the chain. What is the moment of the force F about the pivot P?

Taking the moment from the pivot point P, that means the moment at point p = 0

Then, if we consider the weight mg of the pole, according to the principle of equilibrium : sum of the upward forces equal to the sum of the downward forces.

Therefore, mg = Fsinø ....... (1)

Also, taking moment at point P

Let the length of the pole = s

The length of the weight of the pole = 1/2 S

Fscosø = mgs/2

The distance s will cancel out

2Fcosø = mg ...... (3)

Substitute mg in equation 1 into equation 3

2fcosø = fsinø

F will cancel out

Tanø = 2

Ø = tan^-1(2)

Ø = 63.4 degree

The moment of force F about pivot point P will be

Moment = force × distance

Moment = Fcos63 × S

Moment = Fscos63

At the height of 800 meters, a skydiver falls from an airplane flying horizontally at 40 m/sec. What is the horizontal distance of the skydivers travel before they "hit" the ground?

Answers

Answer:

The horizontal distance traveled by the skydiver is 510.8 m.

Explanation:

Given;

height of fall, h = 800 m

initial velocity of the airplane, u = 40 m/s

The time to fall to the ground is calculated as;

[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 800}{9.81} }\\\\t = 12.77 \ s[/tex]

The horizontal distance or range of the motion is calculated as;

R = ut

R = 40 m/s x 12.77 s

R = 510.8 m

Therefore, the horizontal distance traveled by the skydiver is 510.8 m.

A boat traveling across a river has a resultant velocity of 10 km/h and travels 34 degrees with respect to the shore. A) What is the boats velocity in m/s?
B) What is the velocity of the river in m/s?

Answers

Answer:

a) 1.55 m/s

b) 2.3 m/s

Explanation:

We know that the boat travels across the river, if we define the river as the x-axis, then the velocity of the boat is only on the y-axis.

Then we can write the velocity of the boat in still water as:

S = (0, B)

Now, when the boat is on the river, the velocity of the boat will be equal to the velocity of the boat in still water plus the velocity of the river.

The velocity of the river is:

v = (R, 0).

Then the velocity of the boat in that river is:

V' = (0, B) + (R, 0) = (R, B)

Now, we know that the velocity of the boat is 10km/h, and it travels at an angle of 34° with respect to the shore.

We can use the Pythagoreans theorem to write the components of this velocity as:

x-axis component = 10km/h*cos(34°) = 8.29 km/h

y-axis component = 10km/h*sin(34°) =  5.59 km/h

Then the velocity of the boat can be written in components as:

velocity = ( 8.29 km/h,  5.59 km/h)

And we knew that the velocity of the boat was written as  (R, B)

Then we must have:

R = 8.29 km/h

B = 5.59 km/h

a) The speed of the boat in m/s:

We know that the speed of the boat is 5.59 km/h.

First, we know that:

1km = 1000m, then:

5.59 km/h = 5.59*(1000m)h = 5,590 m/h

And we know that:

1h = 3600s

Then we can write:

5,590 m/h = 5,590 m/(3600s) = 1.55 m/s

b) The speed of the river in m/s:

We know that the speed of the river is 8.29 km/h

Using the same reasoning as above, we can do the change of units as follows:

8.29 km/h = 8.29 (1000m)/(3600s) = 2.3 m/s

what is projectile. what is projectile motion​

Answers

Projectile:

The projectile is any object thrown into space upon which the only acting force is gravity. In other words, the primary force acting on a projectile is gravity. This doesn’t necessarily mean that the other forces do not act on it, just that their effect is minimal compared to gravity. The path followed by a projectile is known as a trajectory. A baseball batted or thrown and the instant the bullet exits the barrel of a gun are all examples of the projectile.

Projectile Motion:

When a particle is thrown obliquely near the earth’s surface, it moves along a curved path under constant acceleration that is directed towards the center of the earth (we assume that the particle remains close to the surface of the earth). The path of such a particle is called a projectile and the motion is called projectile motion. Air resistance to the motion of the body is to be assumed absent in projectile motion.

In a Projectile Motion, there are two simultaneous independent rectilinear motions:

Along the x-axis: uniform velocity, responsible for the horizontal (forward) motion of the particle.

Along y-axis: uniform acceleration, responsible for the vertical (downwards) motion of the particle.

Accelerations in the horizontal projectile motion and vertical projectile motion of a particle: When a particle is projected in the air with some speed, the only force acting on it during its time in the air is the acceleration due to gravity (g). This acceleration acts vertically downward. There is no acceleration in the horizontal direction, which means that the velocity of the particle in the horizontal direction remains constant.

Projectile motion is a form of motion in which object or particle is thrown near earth's surface and it moves along a curved path under the action of gravity only.

A lift travelling up to the top floor of the Empire State building with a mass of 4200kg and a kinetic energy of 4116J. Find the velocity

k is the kinetic energy

m is the mass

From the question we have

[tex]v = \sqrt{ \frac{2 \times 4116}{4200} } \\ = 1.4[/tex]

We have the final answer as

1.4 m/s

Hope this helps you

Answer:

The speed of the lift is 1.4 m/s

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy

Is the type of energy of an object due to its motion. It's proportional to the square of the speed and the mass.

The equation for the kinetic energy is:

[tex]\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

Where:

m = mass of the object

v = speed at which the object moves

The kinetic energy is expressed in Joules (J)

It's given the mass of the lift as m=4,200 kg and its kinetic energy K=4,116 J. To calculate the speed (magnitude of velocity), we solve the formula for v as follows:

[tex]\displaystyle v=\sqrt{\frac{2k}{m}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle v=\sqrt{\frac{2*4,116}{4,200}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle v=\sqrt{1.96}[/tex]

v = 1.4 m/s

The speed of the lift is 1.4 m/s
