Answer:

the position vector (x,y) will be (1.5 m,-2.25 m) and the velocity vector (vx,vy) will be ( 0 m/s , -1.5 m/s) when x reaches its maximum x coordinate

Explanation:

Since the velocity is related with the acceleration and coordinates through

vx²=v₀x²+2*ax*x

where

vx = velocity in the x direction

v₀x = initial velocity in the x direction = 3 m/s

ax = acceleration in the x direction = −1.00 m/s²

x= coordinates in the x-axis

when x reaches its maximum coordinate , then vx=0

thus

vx²=v₀x²+2*ax*x

0 = (3 m/s)² + 2* (−1.00 m/s²)*x

x= 1.5 m

also for the time t

vx = v₀x + ax*t → t= (vx-v₀x)/ax = (0- 3 m/s)/  (−1.00 m/s²) = 3 seconds

for the y coordinates

y = y₀+v₀y*t + 1/2 ay*t²

where

v₀y = initial velocity in the y direction = 0 m/s

ay = acceleration in the x direction = −0.5 m/s²

y= coordinates in the y-axis

y₀= initial coordinate in the y-axis =0

then since y₀=0 and v₀y=0

y = 1/2*ay*t²

y = 1/2*ay*t² = 1/2*(−0.5 m/s²)*(3 s)² = -2.25 m

and

vy=v₀y+ ay*t= 0+(−0.5 m/s²)*(3 s)= (-1.5 m/s)

therefore the position vector (x,y) will be (1.5 m,-2.25 m)

and the velocity vector (vx,vy) will be ( 0 m/s , -1.5 m/s)

A girl is sledding down a slope that is inclined at 30º with respect to the horizontal. The wind is aiding the motion by providi
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The sled required 9.96 s to travel down the slope.

Explanation:

Please, see the figure for a description of the problem. In red are the x and y-components of the gravity force (Fg). Since the y-component of Fg (Fgy) is of equal magnitude as Fn but in the opposite direction, both forces get canceled.

Then, the forces that cause the acceleration of the sled are the force of the wind (Fw), the friction force (Ff) and the x-component of the gravity force (Fgx).

The sum of all these forces make the sled move. Finding the resulting force will allow us to find the acceleration of the sled and, with it, we can find the time the sled travel.

The magnitude of the friction force is calculated as follows:

Ff = μ · Fn

where :

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction

Fn =  normal force

The normal force has the same magnitude as the y-component of the gravity force:

Fgy = Fg · cos 30º = m · g · cos 30º

Where

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

Then:

Fgy = m · g · cos 30º = 87.7 kg · 9.8 m/s² · cos 30º

Fgy = 744 N

Then, the magnitude of Fn is also 744 N and the friction force will be:

Ff = μ · Fn = 0.151 · 744 N = 112 N

The x-component of Fg, Fgx, is calculated as follows:

Fgx = Fg · sin 30º = m·g · sin 30º = 87.7 kg · 9.8 m/s² · sin 30º = 430 N

The resulting force, Fr, will be the sum of all these forces:

Fw + Fgx - Ff = Fr

(Notice that forces are vectors and the direction of the friction force is opposite to the other forces, then, it has to be of opposite sign).

Fr = 161 N + 430 N - 112 N = 479 N

With this resulting force, we can calculate the acceleration of the sled:

F = m·a

where:

F = force

m = mass of the object

a = acceleration

Then:

F/m = a

a = 479N/87.7 kg = 5.46 m/s²

The equation for the position of an accelerated object moving in a straight line is as follows:

x = x0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t²

where:

x = position at time t

x0 = initial position

v0 = initial velocity

t = time

a = acceleration

Since the sled starts from rest and the origin of the reference system is located where the sled starts sliding, x0 and v0 = 0.

x = 1/2· a ·t²

Let´s find the time at which the position of the sled is 271 m:

271 m = 1/2 · 5.46 m/s² · t²

2 · 271 m / 5.46 m/s² = t²

<u>t = 9.96 s </u>

The sled required almost 10 s to travel down the slope.

A 0.25-m string, vibrating in its sixth harmonic, excites a 0.96-m pipe that is open at both ends into its second overtone reson
Andrews [41]

Answer:

option D

Explanation:

given,

length of the pipe, L = 0.96 m

Speed of sound,v = 345 m/s

Resonating frequency when both the end is open

f = \dfrac{nv}{2L}

n is the Harmonic number

2nd overtone = 3rd harmonic

so, here n = 3

now,

f = \dfrac{3\times 345}{2\times 0.96}

f = 540 Hz

The common resonant frequency of the string and the pipe is closest to 540 Hz.

the correct answer is option D

Use the terms "force", "weight", "mass", and "inertia" to explain why it is easier to tackle a 220 lb football player than a 288
Tomtit [17]
<span><u>Answer </u>
The mass of 220 lb football has less than 288 lb football. So, it will be easier to move it since it will require less force. The heavy football will have a bigger momentum. Since 288 lb has more weight than 220 lb, it will have bigger inertia making it difficult for the players to stop it.
This makes it easier to tackle 220 lb football than 288 lb football.

A 2300 kg truck has put its front bumper against the rear bumper of a 2500 kg suv to give it a push. with the engine at full pow
Snowcat [4.5K]

From the Newton’s First Law, we can see that acceleration is simply the ratio of Force over mass. In this case, mass is the sum of the mass of each car, that is:

mass = 2300 kg + 2500 kg = 4800 kg

 

So the formula is:

acceleration = Force / mass

acceleration = 18,000 N / 4800 kg

acceleration = 3.75 m/s^2

 

In 2 significant figures:

<span>acceleration = 3.8 m/s^2</span>
