Answer:

a. mass density

Explanation:

Land and sea breeze that occur near the shore are due to the variation of mass density of air with change in temperature.

When the air gets heated it becomes rarer in density and thus rises up in the atmosphere and its space is occupied by a cooler and denser air that flows to the place.

During the day the land is warmer than the sea so the sea breeze blows and during the night the water bodies are warmer than the land so the land breeze blows.

The box leaves position x=0x=0 with speed v0v0. The box is slowed by a constant frictional force until it comes to rest at posit

const2013 [10]

Answer:

fr = ½ m v₀²/x

Explanation:

This exercise the body must be on a ramp so that a component of the weight is counteracted by the friction force.

The best way to solve this exercise is to use the energy work theorem

W = ΔK

Where work is defined as the product of force by distance

W = fr x cos 180

The angle is because the friction force opposes the movement

Δk = $K_{f}$ –K₀

ΔK = 0 - ½ m v₀²

We substitute

- fr x = - ½ m v₀²

fr = ½ m v₀²/x

10. A girl pulls a wagon along a level path for a distance of 44 m. The handle of

Rina8888 [55]

The work done on the wagon is 3549 J

Explanation:

The work done by a force when moving an object is given by

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where :

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

In this problem we have the following data:

F = 87 N is the magnitude of the force

d = 44 m is the displacement of the wagon

$\theta=22^{\circ}$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement

Substituting, we find the work done

$W=(87)(44)(cos 22^{\circ})=3549 J$

Disturbed by speeding cars outside his workplace, Nobel laureate Arthur Holly Compton designed a speed bump (called the "Holly h

Bezzdna [24]

: 30.50 km/h = 30.50^3 m / 3600s = 8.47 m/s

At the top of the circle the centripetal force (mv²/R) comes from the car's weight (mg)

So, the net downward force from the car (Fn) = (weight - centripetal force) .. and by reaction this is the upward force provided by the road ..

Fn = mg - mv²/R
Fn = m(g - v²/R) .. .. 1800kg (9.80 - 8.47²/20.20) .. .. .. ►Fn = 11 247 N (upwards)
(b)
When the car's speed is such that all the weight is needed for the centripetal force .. then the net downward force (Fn), and the reaction from the road, becomes zero.

ie .. mg = mv²/R .. .. v² = Rg .. .. 20.20m x 9.80 = 198.0(m/s)²

►v = √198 = 14.0 m/s

A projectile is launched at an angle of 30° and lands 20 s later at the same height as it was launched. (a) What is the initial

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

a)Initial speed of the projectile = 196.2 m/s

b)Maximum altitude = 490.5 m

c) Range of projectile = 3398.28 m

d) Displacement from the point of launch to the position on its trajectory at 15 s = 2575.12 m

Explanation:

Time of flight of a projectile is given by the expression,

$t=\frac{2usin\theta}{g}$

Here θ = 30° and t = 20 s

a) $t=\frac{2usin\theta}{g}\\\\20=\frac{2\times usin30}{9.81}\\\\u=196.2m/s$

Initial speed of the projectile = 196.2 m/s

b) Maximum altitude is given by

$H=\frac{u^2sin^2\theta}{2g}=\frac{196.2^2\times sin^230}{2\times 9.81}=490.5m$

Maximum altitude = 490.5 m

c) Range of projectile is given by

$R=\frac{u^2sin2\theta}{g}=\frac{196.2^2\times sin(2\times 30)}{9.81}=3398.28m$

Range of projectile = 3398.28 m

d) Horizontal velocity = ucosθ = 196.2 x cos 30 = 169.91 m/s

Vertical velocity = usinθ = 196.2 x sin 30 = 98.1 m/s

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

Horizontal motion

u = 169.91 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 15 s

Substituting

s = 169.91 x 15 + 0.5 x 0 x 15² = 2548.71 m

Vertical motion

u = 98.1 m/s

a = -9.81 m/s²

t = 15 s

Substituting

s = 98.1 x 15 + 0.5 x -9.81 x 15² = 367.88 m

$\texttt{Total displacement =}\sqrt{2548.71^2+367.88^2}=2575.12m$

Displacement from the point of launch to the position on its trajectory at 15 s = 2575.12 m
