Answer:

C) No air resistance or gravity

Explanation:

For headwind imagine an airplane flying. The wind is hitting the front of the aircraft. Just like the wind is hitting the front of the ball. This increases the drag force and the ball will eventually slow and let the force of gravity act.

For tailwind imagine a sailboat. The wind catches the sail a pushes the boat. Both the wind and boat are going the same way so the angle of the wind is coming from behind. This is why it is called a tail wind.

If a ball is thrown, it has wind resistance and gravity. Otherwise just imagine the ball traveling all around the earth. Because the ball only has the force of lift and thrust, the ball will stay in motion until it hits something strong enough to counteract its thrust.

The description does not state any contact with another object. Also the ball will immediately stop if it has less newtons of force.

Two fun-loving otters are sliding toward each other on a muddy (and hence frictionless) horizontal surface. One of them, of mass

zvonat [6]

Answer:

(a). The magnitude and direction of the velocity of the otters after collision is 1.35 m/s toward left.

(b). The mechanical energy dissipates during this play is 226.98 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of one otter = 8.50 kg

Speed = 6.00 m/s

Mass of other = 5.75 kg

Speed = 5.50 m/s

(a). We need to calculate the magnitude and direction of the velocity of these free-spirited otters right after they collide

Using conservation of momentum

$m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}=(m_{1}+m_{2})v$

Put the value into the formula

$8.50\times(-6.00)+5.75\times5.50=(8.50+5.75)\times v$

$v=\dfrac{-19.375}{14.25}$

$v=-1.35\ m/s$

Negative sign shows the direction of motion of the object after collision is toward left.

(b). We need to calculate the initial kinetic energy

Using formula of kinetic energy

$K.E_{i}=\dfrac{1}{2}m_{1}v_{1}^2+\dfrac{1}{2}m_{2}v_{2}^2$

Put the value into the formula

$K.E_{i}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times8.50\times(6.00)^2+\dfrac{1}{2}\times5.75\times(5.50)^2$

$K.E_{i}=239.96\ J$

We need to calculate the final kinetic energy

Using formula of kinetic energy

$K.E_{f}=\dfrac{1}{2}(m_{1}+m_{2})v^2$

Put the value into the formula

$K.E_{f}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times(8.50+5.75)\times(-1.35)^2$

$K.E_{f}=12.98\ J$

We need to calculate the mechanical energy dissipates during this play

Using formula of loss of mechanical energy

$\Delta K.E=K.E_{f}-K.E_{i}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta K.E=12.98-239.96$

$\Delta K.E=-226.98\ J$

Negative sign shows the loss of mechanical energy

Hence, (a). The magnitude and direction of the velocity of the otters after collision is 1.35 m/s toward left.

(b). The mechanical energy dissipates during this play is 226.98 J.

A circular saw blade with radius 0.175 m starts from rest and turns in a vertical plane with a constant angular acceleration of

ANEK [815]

Answer:

The distance the piece travel in horizontally axis is

L=3.55m

Explanation:

$a=2 \frac{rev}{s^{2}} \\h=0.820m\\r = 0.125 m
\\d=150rev$

$d= 155 rev = 155(2\pi ) = 310\pi rad$

$a= 2.0 \frac{rev}{s^{2} } = 2.0(2\pi ) = 4.0\pi \frac{rev}{s^{2} }$

$d=d_{i}+vo*t+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} \\ di=0\\vo=0\\d=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2*d}{a}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2*310 rad}{4\frac{rad}{s^{2}}}} \\t=12.449$

$w=a*t\\w=4\frac{rad}{s^{2}}*12.449s\\ w=49.79 \frac{rad}{s}$

Now the angular velocity is the blade speed so:

$V=w*r\\V=49.79 \frac{rad}{s}*0.175m\\V=8.7 \frac{m}{s}$

assuming no air friction effects affect blade piece:

time for blade piece to fall to floor

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2*h}{g}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2*0.820m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} } }}\\t=0.409s$

Now is the same time the piece travel horizontally

$L=t*V\\L=0.409s*8.7\frac{m}{s}\\L=3.55m$

blade piece travels HORIZONTALLY = (24.5)(0.397) = 9.73 m ANS

Cylinder A is moving downward with a velocity of 3 m/s when the brake is suddenly applied to the drum. Knowing that the cylinder

Xelga [282]

Answer:

Incomplete question

Check attachment for the given diagram

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial Velocity of drum

u=3m/s

Distance travelled before coming to rest is 6m

Since it comes to rest, then, the final velocity is 0m/s

v=3m/s

Using equation of motion to calculate the linear acceleration or tangential acceleration

v²=u²+2as

0²=3²+2×a×6

0=9+12a

12a=-9

Then, a=-9/12

a=-0.75m/s²

The negative sign shows that the cylinder is decelerating.

Then, a=0.75m/s²

So, using the relationship between linear acceleration and angular acceleration.

a=αr

Where

a is linear acceleration

α is angular acceleration

And r is radius

α=a/r

From the diagram r=250mm=0.25m

Then,

α=0.75/0.25

α =3rad/sec²

The angular acceleration is =3rad/s²

b. Time take to come to rest

Using equation of motion

v=u+at

0=3-0.75t

0.75t=3

Then, t=3/0.75

t=4 secs

The time take to come to rest is 4s
