A penny is dropped from a building and it takes 7.00 seconds to hit the ground.

Answers

Based on the given question, the final velocity of the penny is 68.6m/s

Calculations and Parameters

Based on the definition of velocity, we can see that it has to do with the speed at which an object moves with at a particular direction.

If we observe the 1st law of motion:

v = u + gt

Where:

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

g = acceleration due to gravity

t = time taken

We need to find the velocity as it was not given.

We already know that

u = 0 (it was at rest),

t = 7s

v = unknown

Let us put in the given values based on the equation and solve for the answer.

v = u + gt

v = 0 + ( 9.8m / s ² × 7.00s )

v = 9.8m / s ² × 7.00s

v = 68.6m/s

A penny is dropped from a building, and it takes 7 seconds to hit the ground, so the final velocity will be 68.6 m/s.

What is Velocity?

The ratio of displacement to time is referred to as velocity of the object. It has SI unit meter per second or m/s and has a dimension formula LT⁻¹.

We already know that

Initial speed, u = 0

Time, t = 7 seconds

Use the equation of motion to find the final velocity,

v = u + gt

v = 0 + ( 9.8 m / s ² × 7.00s )

v = 9.8 m / s ² × 7.00s

v = 68.6 m/s

Hence, the penny hit the ground with a final velocity of  68.6 m/s.

A PVC pipe has a length of 45.132 centimeters.a. What are the frequencies of the first three harmonics when the pipe is open at both ends? Include units in your answers.b. What are the frequencies of the first three harmonics when the pipe is closed at one end and open at the other? Include units in your answers.

Answers

ANSWERS

a. f₁ = 380 Hz; f₂ = 760 Hz; f₃ = 1140 Hz

b. f₁ = 190 Hz; f₃ = 570 Hz; f₅ = 950 Hz

EXPLANATION

a. For a pipe of length L open at both ends, the frequencies of the first three harmonics are:

[tex]\begin{cases}f_1=\frac{v}{2L} \\ \\ f_2=2f_1=\frac{v}{L} \\ \\ f_3=3f_1=\frac{3v}{2L}\end{cases}[/tex]

Assuming that the speed of the wave is the speed of sound: 343 m/s and knowing that the length of the pipe is L = 45.132 cm = 0.45132 m we can find the frequencies of the first three harmonics:

[tex]\begin{cases}f_1=\frac{343m/s}{2\cdot0.45132m}\approx380Hz \\ \\ f_2=2f_1=2\cdot380Hz\approx760Hz \\ \\ f_3=3f_1=3\cdot380Hz\approx1140Hz\end{cases}[/tex]

b. For a pipe of length L closed at one end and open at the other, the frequencies of the first three harmonics are:

[tex]\begin{cases}f_1=\frac{v}{4L} \\ \\ f_2=DNE \\ \\ f_3=3f_1=\frac{3v}{4L}\end{cases}[/tex]

In a closed pipe, there can only be odd harmonics (1, 3, 5...). Therefore, the second harmonic does not exist and the "third harmonic" would be the 5th,

[tex]\begin{cases}f_1=\frac{v}{4L} \\ \\ f_3=3f_1=\frac{3v}{4L} \\ \\ f_5=5f_1=\frac{5v}{4L}\end{cases}[/tex]

Again, the length of the pipe is 45.132 cm = 0.45132 m, so the first three harmonics are:

[tex]\begin{cases}f_1=\frac{343m/s}{4\cdot0.45132m}\approx190Hz \\ \\ f_3=3f_1=3\cdot190Hz=570Hz \\ \\ f_5=5f_1=5\cdot190Hz=950Hz\end{cases}[/tex]

It is helpful to break vectors into their horizontal and vertical components before adding vectors because it helps to simplify calculations.

A vector at an angle will have both horizontal and vertical component in it. So resolving the vector into its horizontal and vertical components makes it easier and clearer to solve both the components separately.

Solving the components is done using trigonometry ratios and Pythagoras theorem. Some of the trigonometric ratios used are:

sin θ = Vertical component / Actual vector

cos θ = Horizontal component  / Actual vector

Birds that nest in the Northern Hemisphere tend to migrate northward in the spring to take advantage of burgeoning insect populations, budding plants and an abundance of nesting locations. As winter approaches and the availability of insects and other food drops, the birds move south again. Escaping the cold is a motivating factor but many species, including hummingbirds, can withstand freezing temperatures as long as an adequate supply of food is available.

A.Calculate the combined force of vector F ?B.Calculate the direction of the combined force vector F ?

Answers

Answer:

A. 282.93 N

B. 1.94 degrees

Explanation:

The combined force is found by first adding the three forces given.

We add the three forces by adding their x and y components separately and then combining the results to produce the total force,

The x component of a force is

[tex]\begin{gathered} \cos \theta=\frac{f_x}{F} \\ \Rightarrow f_x=F\cos \theta \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, x components of the forces is

[tex]F_x=120\cos 65+100\cos 25+200\cos (-45)[/tex]

The y-component of the forces is

[tex]F_y=120\sin 120+100\sin 25+200\sin (-45)[/tex]

Now evaluating the above two components gives

[tex]F_x=282.77N[/tex][tex]F_y=9.597N[/tex]

Let us draw on big vector whose components are the above vectors.

The angle of the combined vector with respect to the x-axis is

[tex]\tan \theta=\frac{9.59}{282.77}[/tex][tex]\theta=\tan ^{-1}(\frac{9.59}{282.77})[/tex][tex]\boxed{\theta=1.94^o}[/tex]

The magnitude of the combined vector is

A runner runs around a circular track. He completes one lap at a time of t = 314 s at a constant speed of v = 3.1 m/s. t = 314 sv = 3.1 m/sWhat is the radius, r in meters, of the track? What was the runners centripetal acceleration, ac in m/s2, during the run?

Answers

Since the runner completes 1 lap in 314 seconds, and its velocity is 3.1m/s, then the total distance covered in 1 lap is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} d=vt \\ =(3.1\frac{m}{s})(314s) \\ =973.4m \end{gathered}[/tex]

That distance corresponds to the perimeter of the circumference. The perimeter of a circumference with radius r is 2πr. Then:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2\pi r=d \\ \\ \Rightarrow r=\frac{d}{2\pi} \\ =\frac{973.4m}{2(3.14...)} \\ =154.9...m \end{gathered}[/tex]

The centripetal acceleration of an object in a circular trajectory with radius r and speed v is:

[tex]a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}[/tex]

Replace v=3.1m/s and r=154.9m to find the centripetal acceleration:

[tex]a_c=\frac{(3.1\frac{m}{s})^2}{(154.9m)}=0.062\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]

Therefore, the radius of the track is approximately 155m and the centripetal acceleration of the runner is approximately 0.062 m/s^2.

Answers

The hiker made it to a safe landing on the other side of the gap after travelling horizontally at 2.49 m.

What is the time motion from the vertical height?

The time taken for the hiker to fall from the given height is calculated as follows;

h = vt + ¹/₂gt²

where;

v is the vertical velocity = 0t is the time of motiong is acceleration due to gravityh is the height of fall

h = ¹/₂gt²

t = √(2h/g)

t = √[(2 x 0.6) / (9.8)]

t = 0.35 seconds

The horizontal velocity of the hiker during the period of acceleration is calculated as follows;

Vₓ = at

Vₓ = (5.92 m/s²) x (1.2 s)

Vₓ = 7.104 m/s

The horizontal distance travelled during the time period of 0.35 seconds;

X = Vₓt

X = 7.104 x 0.35

A driver of a car going 90km/hr suddenly sees the lights of a barrier 40.0m ahead. It take the driver 0.75s before he applies the brakes (this is known as reaction time). Once he does begin to brake, he decelerates at a rate of 10m/s^2. Does he hit the barrier?

Answers

First, consider that the distance traveled by the car in 0.75s is:

[tex]x=v\cdot t[/tex]

Convert 90km/h to m/s as follow:

[tex]\frac{90\operatorname{km}}{h}\cdot\frac{1h}{3600}\cdot\frac{1000m}{1\operatorname{km}}=\frac{25m}{s}[/tex]

Then, the distance x is:

[tex]x=(\frac{25m}{s})(0.75s)=18.75m[/tex]

Then, when the driver start to apply the brakes, the distance to the barrier is:

x' = 40.0 m - 18.75 m = 21.25 m

Next, calculate the distance that the car need to stop completely, by using the following formula:

[tex]v^2=v^2_o-2ad[/tex]

where,

v: final velocity = 0m/s (the car stops)

vo: initial velocity = 25m/s

a: acceleration = 10m/s^2

d: distance = ?

Solve the previous equation for d and replace the values of the other parameters:

[tex]d=\frac{v^2_0-v^2}{2a}=\frac{(\frac{25m}{s})^2-(\frac{0m}{s})^2}{2(\frac{10m}{s})^{}}=31.25m[/tex]

Then, the drive needs 31.25 m to stop. If you compare the previous result with the distance of the car related to the barrier when the driver applies the brakes

(x' = 18.75 m), you can notice that d is greater than x'.

Hence, the car does hit the barrier.

If the string is stretched 2 cm then we substitute the value of "x = 2" in the formula, we get:

Now, we determine the quotient between W2 and W1:

[tex]\frac{W_2}{W_1}=\frac{2k}{\frac{1}{2}k}[/tex]

Simplifying we get:

If John Glenn weighed 640 N on Earth's surface, a) how much would he haveweighed if his Mercury spacecraft had (hypothetically) remained at twice thedistance from the center of Earth? b) Why is it said that an astronaut is nevertruly "weightless?"

Answers

Given:

The weight of John Glenn, w=640 N

To find:

a) The weight if the distance was twice that of the initial value.

b) Why is an astronaut never weightless.

Explanation:

a)

Let the distance between the spacecraft and the earth be r.

If it becomes twice, then the distance is 2r.

The initial gravitational force on John Glenn is,

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

Where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the earth and m is the mass of John Glenn.

The force when the distance is twice,

[tex]\begin{gathered} w_n=\frac{GMm}{(2r)^2} \\ =\frac{GMm}{4r^2} \\ =\frac{w}{4} \end{gathered}[/tex]

On substituting the known values,

[tex]\begin{gathered} w_n=\frac{640}{4} \\ =160\text{ N} \end{gathered}[/tex]

b)

Even when the astronaut is in space they still have the mass and so does the earth. Thus there will always be a gravitational force of attraction between the earth and the astronaut. The astronaut does not feel the weight because there will be nothing in space that pushes them back. That is why an astronaut is never truly weightless.

Final answer:

a) Thus the weight of John Glenn will be 160 N

Two drops of mercury each has a charge on 2.42 nC and a voltage of 293.97 V. If the two drops are merged into one drop, what is the voltage on this drop?

Answers

The electric potential is given by:

[tex]\begin{gathered} V=\frac{Kq}{r} \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]

Let's find r first:

[tex]\begin{gathered} r=\frac{Kq}{V}=\frac{8.988\times10^9\cdot2.42\times10^{-9}}{293.97} \\ r\approx0.074m \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now we can find the radius of the new drop:

[tex]r_t=2(r)=2(0.074)=0.148[/tex]

So:

[tex]\begin{gathered} V=\frac{K(2q)}{r_t}=\frac{8.988\times10^9\cdot2(2.42\times10^{-9})}{(0.148)} \\ V=293.93V \end{gathered}[/tex]

Toaster uses a nichrome heating coil and operates at 120 V. When the toaster is turned on at 20°C, the current in the cold coil is 1.5 A. When the coil warms up, the current has a value of 1.3 A. If the thermal coefficient of resistivity for nichrome is 4.5x10-4 1/Co, what is the temperature of the coil?Group of answer choices68oC490oC160oC360oC260oC

Answers

Given that the operating voltage is V = 120 V.

The initial temperature of the toaster is T1 = 20 degrees Celsius

The initial current in the coil is I1 = 1.5 A

The final current in the coil is I2 = 1.3 A

The thermal coefficient of resistivity for nichrome is

[tex]\alpha=4.5\times10^{-4}^{}\text{ }^{\circ}C^{-1}[/tex]

We have to find the final temperature of the coil, T2.

The initial resistance of the coil is

[tex]\begin{gathered} R1=\frac{V}{I1} \\ =\frac{120}{1.5} \\ =80\Omega \end{gathered}[/tex]

The final resistance of the coil is

[tex]\begin{gathered} R2\text{ =}\frac{V}{I2} \\ =\frac{120}{1.3} \\ =92.307\Omega \end{gathered}[/tex]

The formula to calculate the final temperature of the coil is

[tex]\begin{gathered} \alpha=\frac{(R2-R1)}{R1(T2-T1)} \\ T2-T1=\frac{(R2-R1)}{\alpha\times R1} \\ T2=\frac{(R2-R1)}{\alpha\times R1}+T1 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Substituting the values, the final temperature will be

[tex]\begin{gathered} T2=\text{ }\frac{92.307-80}{4.5\times10^{-4}\times80}+20 \\ \approx360^{\circ}\text{ C} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus, the final temperature is 360 degrees Celsius.

Full working out…….2.A vibrating mass-spring system has a frequency of 0.56 Hz. How much energy ofthis vibration is carried away in a one-quantum change?

Answers

ANSWER

3.7128 x 10⁻³⁴ J

EXPLANATION

The energy carried in a one-quantum change is the product of Planck's constant, h, and the frequency of vibration, f,

[tex]E=hf[/tex]

Planck's constant is 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J*s and, in this case, the frequency of vibration is 0.56 Hz. So, the energy carried away is,

[tex]E=0.56Hz\cdot6.63\cdot10^{-34}J\cdot s=3.7128\cdot10^{-34}J[/tex]

Hence, the energy carried away in a one-quantum change is 3.7128 x 10⁻³⁴ J.
