A crossbow is fired horizontally off a cliff with an initial velocity of 15 m/s. If the arrow takes 4s to hit the ground, what is the range of the projectile?

Answers

Answer:

The range of the projectile is 60 meters

Explanation:

To determine the range/distance of the projectile, the formula for velocity is used;

velocity = distance/time

where velocity is 15 m/s

time is 4 seconds

distance is unknown

From the formula above, distance is made the subject and thus

distance = velocity × time

distance = 15 × 4

distance = 60 m

The range of the projectile is 60 meters

During a tennis match, a player serves the ball at 23.6 m/s, with the center of the ball leaving the racquet horizontally 2.37 m above the court surface. The net is 12 m away and 0.90 m high. When the ball reaches the net,
(a) does the ball clear it and
(b) what is the distance between the center of the ball and the top of the net? Suppose that, instead, the ball is served as before but now it leaves the racquet at 5.00° below the horizontal. When the ball reaches the net,
(c) does the ball clear it and
(d) what now is the distance between the center of the ball and the top of the net?

Answers

Answer:

a

Yes it clears

b

 [tex]b= 0.19 \ m[/tex]

c

 No it does not clear

d

[tex]z= 0.86 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The speed at which the player serves the ball is [tex]v = 23.6 \ m/s[/tex]

  The height of the ball above the ground is  [tex]h = 2.3 7 \ m[/tex]

  The distance of the net is  [tex]d = 12 \ m[/tex]

   The height of the net is [tex]H = 0.9 \ m[/tex]

Generally the time taken for the ball to reach the net is mathematically represented as

     [tex]t = \frac{d}{v}[/tex]

=>  [tex]t = \frac{12}{23.6}[/tex]

=>  [tex]t = 0.508 \ s[/tex]

Generally the change in height of the ball after t is mathematically represented as

     [tex]\Delta h = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt^2[/tex]

Here u is the initial velocity which is zero given that the ball was at rest initially

So

     [tex]\Delta h = 0* t + \frac{1}{2} * 9.8 * 0.50 8^2[/tex]

=>  [tex]\Delta h =1.28 \ m[/tex]

Generally the new height of the ball is mathematically evaluated as

      [tex]s= h-\Delta h[/tex]

=>   [tex]s = 2.37 - 1.28[/tex]

=>   [tex]s = 1.09 \ m[/tex]

From the value obtained we see that [tex]s > H[/tex] hence the ball clears the net

Generally the distance between the center of the ball and the top of the net is mathematically represented as

      [tex]b = s - H[/tex]

=>   [tex]b = 1.09 - 0.90[/tex]

=>   [tex]b= 0.19 \ m[/tex]

Given that the ball makes an angle of [tex]5^o[/tex] with the horizontal  , the velocity along the x-axis is  

      [tex]v_x = v cos(5)[/tex]

=>   [tex]v_x = 23.6 cos(5)[/tex]

=>   [tex]v_x = 23.5 \ m/s[/tex]

The velocity along the y-axis is  

      [tex]v_y = v sin(5)[/tex]

=>   [tex]v_y = 23.6 sin(5)[/tex]

=>   [tex]v_y = 2.06 \ m/s[/tex]      

Generally the time taken for the ball to reach the net is

      [tex]t = \frac{d}{v_x}[/tex]

=>   [tex]t = \frac{12}{23.5}[/tex]

=>   [tex]t =0.508 \ s[/tex]

Generally the change in height of the ball after t seconds is  

     [tex]c = v_yt + \frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]

=>  [tex]c = 2.06 * 0.508 + \frac{1}{2}* 9.8 * 0.508 ^2[/tex]

=>  [tex]c = 2.33[/tex]

Generally the new height of the ball after time t seconds is  

     [tex]e = h - c[/tex]

=>   [tex]e = 2.37 - 2.33[/tex]

=>   [tex]e = 0.04 \ m[/tex]

From the value obtained we see that [tex]e < H[/tex] hence the ball does not clear the net

Generally the distance between the center of the ball and the top of the net is mathematically represented as

      [tex]z = H-e[/tex]

=>   [tex]z = 0.90 - 0.04[/tex]

=>   [tex]z= 0.86 \ m[/tex]

   

(a) Yes, the ball clears the net.

(b) The distance between the center of the ball and the top of the net is 0.203 m.

(c) No, the ball does not clear the net.

(d) Now, the distance between the center of the ball and the top of the net is -0.85 m.

What is a Projectile motion?

When any object or body is launched with some initial velocity and making some angle with the horizontal, the body travels in a parabolic path. It is known as the projectile motion.

Given,

The horizontal distance traveled by the ball is 12 m.

The height of the top of the net is 0.90 m.

The height of the horizontal launch of the ball is 2.37 m.

The time for the horizontal motion of the projectile that is the ball is,

[tex]\begin{aligned} {{v}_{0x}}&={{S}_{x}}t \\ t&=\dfrac{{{S}_{x}}}{{{v}_{0x}}} \\ &=\dfrac{{{S}_{x}}}{{{v}_{0}}\cos 0{}^\circ } \\ &=\dfrac{{{S}_{x}}}{{{v}_{0}}} \end{aligned}[/tex]

The equation for the vertical motion of the projectile can be solved by substituting the above result.

[tex]\begin{aligned} y&={{y}_{0}}+{{v}_{0y}}t-\frac{1}{2}g{{t}^{2}} \\ y&={{y}_{0}}+\left( {{v}_{0}}\sin 0{}^\circ \right)\left( \frac{{{S}_{x}}}{{{v}_{0x}}} \right)-\frac{1}{2}g{{\left( \frac{{{S}_{x}}}{{{v}_{0x}}} \right)}^{2}} \\ \left( 0.90\text{ m}+h \right)&=\left( 2.37\text{ m} \right)+0-\frac{1}{2}\left( 9.8\text{ m/}{{\text{s}}^{2}} \right){{\left( \frac{12\text{ m}}{23.6\text{ m/s}} \right)}^{2}} \\ h&=2.37\text{ m}-\text{1}\text{.267 m}-0.90\text{ m} \\ &=0.203\text{ m} \end{aligned}[/tex]

Now, consider the case when the ball is thrown with an angle [tex]\bold{5^{\circ}}[/tex] with the horizontal.

The horizontal component of the initial velocity is [tex]\bold{v_0 \cos 5{}^\circ.}[/tex]

The vertical component of the initial velocity is [tex]\bold{v_0 \sin 5{}^\circ.}[/tex]

For the horizontal distance traveled by the ball in this case, the time taken can be calculated as below,

[tex]\begin{aligned} {t}'&=\frac{{{{{S}'}}_{x}}}{{{{{v}'}}_{0x}}} \\ &=\frac{12\text{ m}}{\left( 23.6\text{ m/s} \right)\cos 5{}^\circ } \\ &=0.51\text{ s} \end{aligned}[/tex]

Now, the vertical distance above the ground, y’, traveled by the projectile till reaching the net can be determined as,

[tex]\begin{aligned} {y}'&={{{{y}'}}_{0}}+{{{{v}'}}_{0y}}{t}'-\frac{1}{2}g{{{{t}'}}^{2}} \\ &=0\text{ m}-\left( \left( 23.6\text{ m/s} \right)\sin 5{}^\circ \right)\left( 0.51\text{ s} \right)-\frac{1}{2}\left( 9.8\text{ m/}{{\text{s}}^{2}} \right){{\left( 0.51\text{ s} \right)}^{2}} \\ &=-1.05\text{ m}-1.28\text{ m} \\ &=-2.32\text{ m} \end{aligned}[/tex]

The height above the top of the net can be determined by adding the above result with (2.37 m - 0.90 m) which is the height of the net’s top relative to the launch position.

[tex]\begin{aligned} {h}'&=\left( 2.37\text{ m}-0.90\text{ m} \right)+{y}' \\ &=\left( 2.37\text{ m}-0.90\text{ m} \right)-2.32\text{ m} \\ &=-0.85\text{ m} \end{aligned}[/tex]

Thus, the distance between the center of the ball and the top of the net is -2,32 m.

When the ball leaves the racquet at 5.00° below the horizontal, the distance between the center of the ball and the top of the net is -0.85 m.

Answers

Answer:

Vf = 210 [m/s]

Av = 105 [m/s]

y = 2205 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following formula of kinematics.

[tex]v_{f} =v_{o} +g*t[/tex]

where:

Vf = final velocity [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 0 (released from the rest)

g = gravity acceleration = 10 [m/s²]

t = time = 21 [s]

Vf = 0 + (10*21)

Vf = 210 [m/s]

Note: The positive sign for the gravity acceleration means that the object is falling in the same direction of the gravity acceleration (downwards)

The average speed is defined as the sum of the final speed plus the initial speed divided by two. (the initial velocity is zero)

Av = (210 + 0)/2

Av = 105 [m/s]

To calculate the distance we must use the following equation of kinematics

[tex]v_{f} ^{2} =v_{o} ^{2} +2*g*y\\\\(210)^{2} = 0 + (2*10*y)[/tex]

Answer:

The electrostatic force is larger by a factor of 8.988E9 / 6.674E-11 = 1.35E20

Explanation:

William gave you all the ingredients, but not the answer.  Being both 1/r^2 forces (resulting from massless mediators in QFT), and with unit charges in the problem (1 coulomb, 1 Kg), separated by unit distance (1m), the only nontrivial numerical values in the problem are the constants of proportionality: Coulomb's constant (k) and Newton's gravitational constant (G).  So to "compare and constrast": the ratio of the forces is simply the ratio of these constants.  The electromagnatic force is 1.35 X 10^20 times stronger than the gravitational force.  Assuming positive charge on both objects (the problem is ambiguous on this), they are repelled, whereas the much weaker gravitational force is attractive.  (Gravity only has one kind of "charge" - it's unsigned - and the force is always attractive).  

The problem doesn't say the objects are pointlike: if they have some extent and are either conductive or made of some dielectric, then things get messy because the charge distribution on the object won't be uniform then, but save that for grad school. :-)

Suppose a 125 N force is applied to a lawnmower handle at an angle of 35° with the ground and the lawnmower moves along the surface of the ground. If the lawnmower moves 56 m, how much work was done? (hint: use cos to find the x of force vector)

Answers

Answer:

Workdone is 5734.06Nm.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Force applied = 125N

Angle = 35°

Distance = 56m

To find the workdone by the lawnmower, we would first of all find the horizontal component of the force applied.

[tex] Horizontal force, Fx = mgCosd[/tex]

Where;

Fx represents the horizontal force. m is the mass of an object. g is the acceleration due to gravity. d is the angle of inclination (theta).

mg = weight = 125N

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] Fx = 125 * Cos35[/tex]

[tex] Fx = 125 * 0.8192[/tex]

Fx = 102.39N

Workdone is given by the formula;

[tex] Workdone = force * distance[/tex]

[tex] Workdone = 102.39 * 56[/tex]

Workdone = 5734.06Nm

Therefore, the work done by the lawnmower is 5734.06Nm.

high heels shoes are more likely to damage floor than flat shoes . do you agree? explain.​

Answers

yesssss I am agree ......

Answer:

Yes, I agree. The pressure exerted upon the floor is larger for high heel shoes than flat shoes, hence causing more damage to the floor.

Explanation:

Pressure is force/area. High heel shoes have a sharp point at which they touch the floor, while flat shoes have a flatter surface at which they touch the floor. Due to you exerting the same force anyway, the area is smaller for high heel shoes.

As you might know, the smaller a denominator is, the larger the number is. As an example, 3/1 is larger than 3/2. 3/1 is 3, and 3/2 is 1.5. Hence, the force is larger for high heel shoes, and it will cause more damage.

You kick a soccer ball across a field the ball travels across the field and slowly comes to a stop. Since the ball slowly comes to a stop what does this mean about the net force on the ball as it rolls across the field?

Answers

Answer:

It slowly decreases and the friction acting on it slowing it down becomes the bigger net force, if that makes sense :)

Explanation:

If you kick a soccer ball across a field the ball travels across the field and slowly comes to a stop. Since the ball slowly comes to a stop, this means about the net force on the ball as it rolls across the field would decrease and finally would be less than the friction force.

What is Newton's second law?

Newton's Second Law states that The resultant force acting on an object is proportional to the rate of change of momentum. The mathematical expression for Newton's second law is as follows

As given in the problem if you kick a soccer ball across a field the ball travels across the field and slowly comes to a stop. Since the ball slowly comes to a stop.

Since the ball stops gradually, this implies that the net force exerted on it as it rolls over the field will eventually diminish until it is less than the friction force.

A slab of glass 8.0 cm thick is placed upon a printed page. If the refractive index of the glass is 1.5, how far from the surface would the letters appear to be when viewed from directly above?

Answers

Answer:

5.3 cm

Explanation:

This question is an illustration of real and apparent distance.

From the question, we have the following given parameters

Real Distance, R = 8.0cm

Refractive Index, μ = 1.5

Required

Determine the apparent distance (A)

The relationship between R, A and μ is:

μ = R/A

i.e.

Refractive Index = Real Distance ÷ Apparent Distance

Substitute values in the above formula

1.5 = 8/A

Multiply both sides by A

1.5 * A = A * 8/A

1.5A = 8

Divide both side by 1.5

1.5A/1.5 = 8/1.5

A = 8/1.5

A = 5.3cm

Hence, the letters would appear at a distance of 5.3cm

His measurements will be more accurate if he uses a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL. C.) His measurements will be more precise if he uses a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL. D.) His measurements will be more accurate if he takes measurements from an additional 100 flowers.

Answer:

His measurements will be more accurate if he uses a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL.

Explanation:

In the measurements of volume using most graduated cylinders, the cylinders are calibrated to the nearest tenth owing to the uncertainty in the measurement of volume.

Hence if a cylinder has measures to the nearest milliliter(mL), then he can improve his experiment by using a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL

A space vehicle is coasting at a constant velocity of 22.4 m/s in the y direction relative to a space station. The pilot of the vehicle fires a RCS (reaction control system) thruster, which causes it to accelerate at 0.206 m/s2 in the x direction. After 40.5 s, the pilot shuts off the RCS thruster. After the RCS thruster is turned off, find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the vehicle's velocity relative to the space station. Express the direction as an angle (in degrees) measured from the y direction.

Answers

Answer:

a. 23.9 m/s b. 69.58°

Explanation:

a. Since the space vehicle is moving at a constant velocity of 22.4 m/s in the y direction relative to the space station, its initial vertical velocity v = 22.4 m/s.

Also, since the space vehicle moves in the y direction, its initial horizontal velocity u = 0 m/s.

Since its acceleration a = 0.206 m/s² for time, t = 40.5 s, we find the final horizontal velocity u' from u' = u + at.

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

u' = u + at

u' = 0 m/s  + 0.206 m/s² × 40.5 s

= 8.343 m/s

≅ 8.34 m/s

The resultant velocity relative to the space station V = √(v² + u'²)

= √[(22.4m/s)² + (8.34 m/s)²]

= √[501.76 m²/s² + (69.56 m²/s²]

= √[571.32 m²/s²]

= 23.9 m/s

b. The direction of the vehicle's velocity relative to the space station is thus θ = tan⁻¹(v/u')

= tan⁻¹(22.4 m/s/8.34 m/s)

= tan⁻¹(2.6959)

= 69.58°

A grapefruit falls from a tree and hits the ground 0.72 s later.
How far did the grapefruit drop?
What was its speed when it hit the ground?

Answers

Answer:

The grapefruit dropped 2.54 m and hit the ground at 7.06 m/s

Explanation:

Free Fall Motion

A free-falling object falls under the sole influence of gravity. Any object that is being acted upon only by the force of gravity is said to be in a state of free fall. Free-falling objects do not encounter air resistance.

If an object is dropped from rest in a free-falling motion, it falls with a constant acceleration called the acceleration of gravity, which value is [tex]g = 9.8 m/s^2.[/tex]

The final velocity of a free-falling object after a time t is given by:

vf=g.t

The distance traveled by a dropped object is:

[tex]\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}[/tex]

Given a grapefruit free falls from a tree and hits the ground t=0.72 s later, we can calculate the height it fell from:

[tex]\displaystyle y=\frac{9.8\cdot 0.72^2}{2}[/tex]

y = 2.54 m

The final speed is computed below:

[tex]vf=9.8\cdot 0.72[/tex]

vf = 7.06 m/s

The grapefruit dropped 2.54 m and hit the ground at 7.06 m/s

w = 10 [cm] = 0.1 [m]

Now we can find the volume.

[tex]V = 0.15*0.002*0.1\\V = 0.00003 [m^{3} ][/tex]

And the mass m = 4 [gramm] = 0.004 [kg]

[tex]Ro = 0.004/0.00003\\Ro = 133 [kg/m^{3}][/tex]

Explanation:

A tortoise can run with a speed of 0.10 m/s, and a hare can run 20 times as fast. In a race, they both start at the same time, but the hare stops to rest for 2.0 minutes. The tortoise wins by a shell (20 cm)!How long does the race take?What is the length of the race?

Answers

Answer: a. 126.21secs

b. 12.621 meters.

Explanation:

Given data:

Speed of tortoise = 0.1m/s.

Speed of hare = 2m/s.

Solution:

a. Distance traveled = Speed* Time

Speed of tortoise = 0.1 m/s

Speed of hare = 20*0.1 m/s = 2 m/s

2 minutes = 2* 60 s = 120 s

Let the time taken for the race be t seconds.

• Distance moved by tortoise

= (0.1 /s)* (t s)

= 0.1*t meter

•Hare has run for a time of (t - 120)s.

distance moved by hare

= Speed * Time

= (2 m/s)*(t- 120)s

= (2t - 240) meter.

Since hare is 20 cm (0.2 m) behind the tortoise, therefore

(0.1*t - 0.2) meter

= (2t - 240) meter

0.1*t - 0.2 = 2t - 240

Collect like terms

239.8 = 1.9t

Divide both sides by 1.9

t = 126.21secs

The race lasted for 126.21secs

b. Length of race

= Distance moved by tortoise

= 0.1*126.21 meter

= 12.621 meter

The length of the race is 12.621 meters.

Answer:100 g of ca

Explanation:

Earthquakes are essentially sound waves—called seismic waves—traveling through the earth. Because the earth is solid, it can support both longitudinal and transverse seismic waves. The speed of longitudinal waves, called PP waves, is 8000 m/sm/s. Transverse waves, called SS waves, travel at a slower 4500 m/sm/s. A seismograph records the two waves from a distant earthquake. The SS wave arrives 2.0 minmin after the PP wave. Assume that the waves travel in straight lines, although actual seismic waves follow more complex routes.

Question

Earthquakes are essentially sound waves—called seismic waves—traveling through the earth. Because the earth is solid, it can support both longitudinal and transverse seismic waves. The speed of longitudinal waves, called P waves, is 8000 m/s Transverse waves, called S waves, travel at a slower 4500 m/s. A seismograph records the two waves from a distant earthquake. The S wave arrives 2.0 min after the PP wave.How far away is the Earthquake.  Assume that the waves travel in straight lines, although actual seismic waves follow more complex routes.

Answer:

The distance is  [tex]d = 1.23 *10^{6} \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The speed of longitudinal seismic  wave is  [tex]v_p = 8000 \ m/s[/tex]

    The speed of Transverse seismic  wave is  [tex]v_s = 4500 \ m/s[/tex]

     The time difference between the arrival of longitudinal seismic with respect to Transverse waves is  [tex]\Delta t = 2.0\ min = 120\ seconds[/tex]

Generally the  time difference between the arrival of longitudinal seismic with respect to Transverse waves is mathematically represented as

     [tex]\Delta t = t_p - t_s[/tex]

=>  [tex]\Delta t =\frac{d}{v_p} -\frac{d}{v_s}[/tex]

=>   [tex]d = \frac{\Delta t}{ \frac{1}{v_p} - \frac{1}{v_s} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]d = \frac{120 }{ \frac{1}{8000} - \frac{1}{4500} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]d = 1.23 *10^{6} \ m[/tex]
