A plane flying horizontally above earth’s surface at 100. meters per second drops a crate. the crate strikes the ground 30.0 sec

onds later. what is the magnitude of the horizontal component of the crate’s velocity just before it strikes the ground? [neglect friction.]

Since the plane is traveling at 100m/s horizontal to the surface of the earth, the crate will always have this horizontal velocity (neglecting air resistance) until it hits the ground.  So the answer is 100m/s.  Note the vertical speed continues to change as the crate accelerates downward toward earth (again neglecting air effects)

A truck collides with a car on horizontal ground. At one moment during the collision, the magnitude of the acceleration of the t
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration of the car is 35.53 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration of the truck, a_t = 12.7 m/s²

mass of the truck, m_t = 2490 kg

mass of the car, m_c = 890 kg

let the acceleration of the car at the moment they collided = a_c

Apply Newton's third law of motion;

Magnitude of force exerted by the truck = Magnitude of force exerted by the car.

The force exerted by the car occurs in the opposite direction.

F_c = -F_t\\\\m_ca_c = -m_t a_t\\\\a_c =- \frac{m_ta_t}{m_c} \\\\a_c = -\frac{2490 \times 12.7}{890} \\\\a_c = - 35.53 \ m/s^2

Therefore, the magnitude of the acceleration of the car is 35.53 m/s²

Sayid made a chart listing data of two colliding objects. A 5-column table titled Collision: Two Objects Stick Together with 2 r
Alborosie

Answer:

6 m/s is the missing final velocity

Explanation:

From the data table we extract that there were two objects (X and Y) that underwent an inelastic collision, moving together after the collision as a new object with mass equal the addition of the two original masses, and a new velocity which is the unknown in the problem).

Object X had a mass of 300 kg, while object Y had a mass of 100 kg.

Object's X initial velocity was positive (let's imagine it on a horizontal axis pointing to the right) of 10 m/s. Object Y had a negative velocity (imagine it as pointing to the left on the horizontal axis) of -6 m/s.

We can solve for the unknown, using conservation of momentum in the collision: Initial total momentum = Final total momentum (where momentum is defined as the product of the mass of the object times its velocity.

In numbers, and calling P_{xi} the initial momentum of object X and P_{yi} the initial momentum of object Y, we can derive the total initial momentum of the system: P_{total}_i=P_{xi}+P_{yi}= 300*10 \frac{kg*m}{s} -100*6\frac{kg*m}{s} =\\=(3000-600 )\frac{kg*m}{s} =2400 \frac{kg*m}{s}

Since in the collision there is conservation of the total momentum, this initial quantity should equal the quantity for the final mometum of the stack together system (that has a total mass of 400 kg):

Final momentum of the system: M * v_f=400kg * v_f

We then set the equality of the momenta (total initial equals final) and proceed to solve the equation for the unknown(final velocity of the system):

2400 \frac{kg*m}{s} =400kg*v_f\\\frac{2400}{400} \frac{m}{s} =v_f\\v_f=6 \frac{m}{s}

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The magnitudes of the net magnetic fields at points A and B is 2.66 x 10^{-6} T

Explanation:

Given information :

The current of each wires, I = 4.7 A

dH = 0.19 m

dV = 0.41 m

The magnetic of straight-current wire :

B= μ_{0}I/2πr

where

B = magnetic field (T)

μ_{0} = 1.26 x 10^{-6} (N/A^{2})

I = Current (A)

r = radius (m)

the magnetic field at points A and B is the same because both of wires have the same distance. Based on the right-hand rule, the net magnetic field of A and B is canceled each other (or substracted). Thus,

BH = μ_{0}I/2πr

     = (1.26 x 10^{-6})(4.7)/(2π)(0.19)

     = 4.96 x 10^{-6} T

BV = μ_{0}I/2πr

     = (1.26 x  10^{-6})(4.7)/(2π)(0.41)

     = 2.3 x 10^{-6} T

hence,

the net magnetic field = BH - BV

                                     = 4.96 x 10^{-6} - 2.3 x 10^{-6}

                                     = 2.66 x 10^{-6} T

the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1.6 m/s^2 what is the gravitational potential energy of a 1200 kg lander resting
Mumz [18]

<u>Answer</u>

672,000 Joules

<u>Explanation</u>

Gravitational potential energy (P.E) is the energy possessed by a body that is at a potential height from the ground.

IT is calculated by the formula;

P.E = mgh

Where m ⇒ mass

            g ⇒ acceleration due to gravity

            h ⇒ height from trhe ground.

P.E = 1200 × 1.6 × 350

      = 672,000 Joules.
