6) A map in a ship’s log gives directions to the location of a buried treasure. The starting location is an old oak tree. Accord

ing to the map, the treasure’s location is found by proceeding 20 paces north from the oak tree and then 30 paces northwest. At this location, an iron pin is sunk in the ground. From the iron pin, walk 10 paces south and dig. How far (in paces) from the oak tree is the spot at which digging occurs?

What two quantities are crucial to quantifying the translational kinetic energy of an object?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Moment of inertia and angular velocity.

Explanation:

The translational kinetic energy of an object is possessed when the object is showing rotational motion. It can be given by the formula as :

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2

Here,

I is the moment of inertia of the object

\omega is the angular velocity of the object

So, the translational kinetic energy of an object is given by moment of inertia and angular velocity of the object. Hence, this is the required solution.

The amplitude of a lightly damped oscillator decreases by 3.0% during each cycle. what percentage of the mechanical energy of th
Zanzabum

E = ½KA^2 is the mechanical energy of any oscillator.  It is the sum of elastic potential energy and kinetic energy.  When amplitude A decreases by 3%, then

(E2-E1)/E1 = {½K(A2^2/A1^2) }/ ½K(A1^2)

= {(A2^2 – A1^2) / (A1^2)}

= 97^2 – 100^2/100^2

= 5.91% of the mechanical energy is lost each cycle.

A hydroelectric dam holds back a lake of surface area 3.0×106m2 that has vertical sides below the water level. The water level i
Ber [7]

Answer:

4.41 × 10¹² J, 2.72 × 10³ m³, 0.907 × 10 ⁻³ m

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy = mgh

where m is mass in kg, g is acceleration due to gravity in m/s², and h is the distance from the base of the dam.

mass of the surface water = density of water × volume of water × 1 m = 1000 kg / m³ × 3.0 × 10⁶ m² × 1 m = 3 × 10⁹ kg

Gravitational potential energy = 3 × 10⁹ kg × 9.81 m/s² × 150 m = 4.41 × 10¹² J

b)what volume of water must pass through the dam to produce 1000 kw-hrs

1 000 kw-hr = 3.6 × 10 ⁹ J

the dam has mechanical energy conversion of 90% to electrical energy

Gravitational potential energy needed = 3.6 × 10 ⁹ J / 0.9 = 4 × 10⁹ J

mass of water needed = Energy  required / g h =  4 × 10⁹ J / (9.81 m/s² × 150 m) = 2.718 × 10 ⁶ kg

density = mass / volume

volume = mass / density =  2.718 × 10 ⁶ kg / (1000 kg/ m³) = 2.72 × 10³ m³

the distance the level of  the water in the lake fell = volume / area =  2.72 × 10³ m³ / (3.0×10⁶ m²) = 0.907 × 10 ⁻³ m

B. A hydraulic jack has a ram of 20 cm diameter and a plunger of 3 cm diameter. It is used for lifting a weight of 3 tons. Find
lozanna [386]

Answer:

option (b)

Explanation:

According to the Pascal's law

F / A = f / a

Where, F is the force on ram, A be the area of ram, f be the force on plunger and a be the area of plunger.

Diameter of ram, D = 20 cm, R = 20 / 2 = 10 cm

A = π R^2 = π x 100 cm^2

F = 3 tons = 3000 kgf

diameter of plunger, d = 3 cm, r = 1.5 cm

a = π x 2.25 cm^2

Use Pascal's law

3000 / π x 100 = f / π x 2.25

f = 67.5 Kgf

Assuming both graduated cylinders are holding water at room temperature, which cylinder has more thermal energy?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

The correct option is;

The graduate cylinder with more water has more thermal energy because it is holding more water molecules

Explanation:

Given that the thermal energy of the system is the energy possessed by the system by virtue of the increased motion of the particles by virtue of a transfer  of heat, when the content of the system is heated

The thermal energy, Q is given by the following equation;

Q = Mass, m × The specific heat capacity, C × The change in temperature, ΔT

Given that the graduated cylinder with more water has more mass and therefore, more water molecules, than the cylinder with less water, the cylinder with more water has more thermal energy.
