A 2.50 × 105 W motor is used for 26.4 s to pull a boat straight toward shore. How far does the boat move toward shore if a force

of 4.20 × 104 N is applied by the motor?

The power of the motor is
2.50x10⁵ W
or
2.50x10⁵ N m/s

The time it takes to pull the boat is
26.4 s

The force applied is
4.20x10⁴ N

The distance traveled by the boat is
2.50x10⁵ N m /s (26.4 s) / (4.20x10⁴ N)
= 157.14 m<span />

A car is travelling to the right with a speed of 42\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}42 s m 42, space, start fraction, m, divided by,

Effectus [21]

Answer:

d = 84 m

Explanation:

As we know that when an object moves with uniform acceleration or deceleration then we can use equation of kinematics to find the distance moved by the object

here we know that

initial speed $v_i = 42 m/s$

final speed $v_f = 0$

time taken by the car to stop

$t = 4s$

now the distance moved by the car before it stop is given as

$d = \frac{v_f + v_i}{2} \times t$

now we have

$d = \frac{42 + 0}{2} \times 4$

$d = 84 m$

A perpetual motion machine is (as the name implies) a machine that moves perpetually; it never stops. Ever. So if you created one today and set it going, it would keep on going until the Big Freeze<span>. Calling that “a long time” is an understatement of epic proportions</span>

A package is dropped from a helicopter that is descending steadily at a speed v0. After t seconds have elapsed, consider the fol

qaws [65]

Answer:

Part a)

$v = \sqrt{v_o^2 + g^2t^2}$

Part b)

$d = \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Part c)

$v_f = v_o - gt$

Part d)

$d = \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that speed of package is same as that of helicopter in horizontal direction

So after time "t" the velocity in x direction will remain constant while in Y direction it will go free fall

So we have

$v_y = -gt$

$v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}$

$v = \sqrt{v_o^2 + g^2t^2}$

Part b)

Distance from helicopter is same as the distance of free fall

so we will have

$d = \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Part c)

If helicopter is rising upwards with uniform speed

then final speed of the package after time t is given as

$v_f = v_i + at$

$v_f = v_o - gt$

Part d)

distance from helicopter

$d = \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

An astronaut holds a rock 100m above the surface of Planet X . The rock is then thrown upward with a speed of 15m/s , as shown i

Butoxors [25]

Answer: $5 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

The described situation is is related to vertical motion (and free fall). So, we can use the following equation that models what happens with this rock:

$y=y_{o}+V_{o}sin\theta t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (1)

Where:

$y=0m$ is the rock's final height

$y_{o}=100 m$ is the rock's initial height

$V_{o}=15 m/s$ is the rock's initial velocity

$\theta=90\°$ is the angle at which the rock was thrown (directly upwards)

$t=10 s$ is the time

$g$ is the acceleration due gravity in Planet X

Then, isolating $g$ and taking into account $sin(90\°)=1$ :

$g=(-\frac{2}{t^{2}})(y-y_{o}-V_{o}t)$ (2)

$g=(-\frac{2}{(10 s)^{2}})(0 m-100 m-(15 m/s)(10 s))$ (3)

Finally:

$g=5 m/s^{2}$ (4) This is the acceleration due gravity in Planet X
