A 1500 kg car traveling at 20 m/s suddenly runs out of gas while approaching the valley shown in the figure. The alert driver im

mediately puts the car in neutral so that it will roll.
What will be the car’s speed as it coasts into the gas station on the other side of the valley?

Answer:

v_f = 17.4 m / s

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use conservation of energy

starting point. On the hill when running out of gas

          Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v₀² + m g y₁

final point. Arriving at the gas station

         Em_f = K + U = ½ m v_f ² + m g y₂

energy is conserved

         Em₀ = Em_f

         ½ m v₀ ² + m g y₁ = ½ m v_f ² + m g y₂

        v_f ² = v₀² + 2g (y₁ -y₂)

         

we calculate

        v_f ² = 20² + 2 9.8  (10 -15)

        v_f = √302

         v_f = 17.4 m / s

A roadway for stunt drivers is designed for racecars moving at a speed of 40 m/s. A curved section of the roadway is a circular
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Bank angle = 35.34o

Explanation:

Since the road is frictionless,

Tan (bank angle) = V^2/r*g

Where V = speed of the racing car in m/s, r = radius of the arc in metres and g = acceleration due to gravity in m/s^2

Tan ( bank angle) = 40^2/(230*9.81)

Tan (bank angle) = 0.7091

Bank angle = tan inverse (0.7091)

Bank angle = 35.34o

If a sound with frequency fs is produced by a source traveling along a line with speed vs. If an observer is traveling with spee
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

457.81 Hz

Explanation:

From the question, it is stated that it is a question under Doppler effect.

As a result, we use this form

fo = (c + vo) / (c - vs) × fs

fo = observed frequency by observer =?

c = speed of sound = 332 m/s

vo = velocity of observer relative to source = 45 m/s

vs = velocity of source relative to observer = - 46 m/s ( it is taking a negative sign because the velocity of the source is in opposite direction to the observer).

fs = frequency of sound wave by source = 459 Hz

By substituting the the values to the equation, we have

fo = (332 + 45) / (332 - (-46)) × 459

fo = (377/ 332 + 46) × 459

fo = (377/ 378) × 459

fo = 0.9974 × 459

fo = 457.81 Hz

An antibaryon composed of two antiup quarks
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

(2) −1 e

Explanation:

A quark is the lightest elementary particles which form hadron such as proton and neutron. A quark has fractional charge.

Up, charm and top quarks have +\frac{2}{3} e charge where as down, strange and bottom quarks have -\frac{1}{3}e charge.

The antiparticle of up quark is antiup quark and has charge -\frac{2}{3}e charge.

The antiparticle of down quark is antidown quark and has charge +\frac{1}{3}e charge.

An antibaryon is composed of two anti-up quark and one anti-down quark.

Net charge of the anti-baryon is:

2\times (-\frac{2}{3} e)+1\times (+\frac{1}{3})e=-1e

Thus, antibaryon has -1e charge.

For a given initial projectile speed Vo, calculate what launch angle A gives the longest range R. Show your work, don't just quo
pickupchik [31]
The optimal angle of 45° for maximum horizontal range is only valid when initial height is the same as final height. 

<span>In that particular situation, you can prove it like this: </span>

<span>initial velocity is Vo </span>
<span>launch angle is α </span>

<span>initial vertical velocity is </span>
<span>Vv = Vo×sin(α) </span>

<span>horizontal velocity is </span>
<span>Vh = Vo×cos(α) </span>

<span>total time in the air is the the time it needs to fall back to a height of 0 m, so </span>
<span>d = v×t + a×t²/2 </span>
<span>where </span>
<span>d = distance = 0 m </span>
<span>v = initial vertical velocity = Vv = Vo×sin(α) </span>
<span>t = time = ? </span>
<span>a = acceleration by gravity = g (= -9.8 m/s²) </span>
<span>so </span>
<span>0 = Vo×sin(α)×t + g×t²/2 </span>
<span>0 = (Vo×sin(α) + g×t/2)×t </span>
<span>t = 0 (obviously, the projectile is at height 0 m at time = 0s) </span>
<span>or </span>
<span>Vo×sin(α) + g×t/2 = 0 </span>
<span>t = -2×Vo×sin(α)/g </span>

<span>Now look at the horizontal range. </span>
<span>r = v × t </span>
<span>where </span>
<span>r = horizontal range = ? </span>
<span>v = horizontal velocity = Vh = Vo×cos(α) </span>
<span>t = time = -2×Vo×sin(α)/g </span>
<span>so </span>
<span>r = (Vo×cos(α)) × (-2×Vo×sin(α)/g) </span>
<span>r = -(Vo)²×sin(2α)/g </span>

<span>To find the extreme values of r (minimum or maximum) with variable α, you must find the first derivative of r with respect to α, and set it equal to 0. </span>

<span>dr/dα = d[-(Vo)²×sin(2α)/g] / dα </span>
<span>dr/dα = -(Vo)²/g × d[sin(2α)] / dα </span>
<span>dr/dα = -(Vo)²/g × cos(2α) × d(2α) / dα </span>
<span>dr/dα = -2 × (Vo)² × cos(2α) / g </span>

<span>Vo and g are constants ≠ 0, so the only way for dr/dα to become 0 is when </span>
<span>cos(2α) = 0 </span>
<span>2α = 90° </span>
<span>α = 45° </span>

Io, a satellite of Jupiter, is the most volcanically active moon or planet in the solar system. It has volcanoes that send plume
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

1331.84 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement = 490 km

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 1.81 m/s² = a

From equation of linear motion

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{v^2-2as}\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{0^2-2\times -1.81\times 490000}\\\Rightarrow u=1331.84\ m/s

The speed of the material must be 1331.84 m/s in order to reach the height of 490 km
