A 12.0-kg shell is launched at an angle of 55.0 ∘ above the horizontal with an initial speed of 150 m/s. when it is at its highe

st point, the shell exploded into two fragments, one three times heavier than the other. the two fragments reach the ground at the same time. assume that air resistance can be ignored. if the heavier fragment lands back at the same point from which the shell was launched, where will the lighter fragment land and how much energy was released in the explosion

An organ pipe open at both ends has a radius of 4.0 cm and a length of 6.0 m. what is the frequency (in hz) of the third harmoni
Marysya12 [62]

When air is blown into the open pipe,

L = \frac{nλ}{2}

where nis any integral number 1,2,3,4 etc. and λ is the wavelength of the oscillation

⇒λ=\frac{2L} {n}

Note here that n=1 is for fundamental, n=2 is first harmonic and so on..

⇒ third harmonic will be n=4

Given L=6m, n=4, solving for λ we get:

λ=\frac{(2)*(6)}{4} =3m

Relationship of frequency(f), velocity of sound (c) and wavelength(λ) is:

c=f.λ Or f= \frac{c}{λ}

⇒f=\frac{344}{3}

≈115 Hz

The standing vertical jump is a good test of an athlete's strength and fitness. The athlete goes into a deep crouch, then extend
SashulF [63]

Answer:

<em>The athlete will rise 1.10 meters off the ground</em>

Explanation:

<u>Vertical Motion</u>

If an object is launched vertically upwards at an initial speed vo, then it will reach a maximum height given by

\displaystyle y_m=\frac{v_o^2}{2g}

The athlete can exert a net force upwards equal to twice his weight. It makes him accelerate upwards at

\displaystyle a=\frac{F_n}{m}=\frac{2W}{m}=2g

The speed at the end of his push can be computed by

v^2=2ay

Replacing the value of a obtained above:

v^2=4gy

where y is the length of this crouch

v^2=4\cdot 9.8\cdot 0.55

v=4.64\ m/s

This is the initial speed of this vertical launch, thus

\displaystyle y_m=\frac{4.64^2}{2\cdot 9.8}

y_m=1.10\ m

Two circular rods, one steel and the other copper, are joined end to end. Each rod is 0.750 m long and 1.50 cm in diameter. The
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

(a) Steel rod: 1.1 * 10^{-4}

    Copper rod: 1.88 * 10^{-4}

(b) Steel rod: 8.3 * 10^{-5} m

Copper rod: 1.41 * 10^{-4} m

Explanation:

Length of each rod = 0.75 m

Diameter of each rod = 1.50 cm = 0.015 m

Tensile force exerted = 4000 N

(a) Strain is given as the ratio of change in length to the original length of a body. Mathematically, it is given as

Strain = \frac{1}{Y} * \frac{F}{A}

where Y = Young modulus

F = Fore applied

A = Cross sectional area

For the steel rod:

Y =  200 000 000 000 N/m^{2}

F = 4000N

A = \pi r^{2}      (r = d/2 = 0.015/2 = 0.0075 m)

=> A = \pi * (0.0075)^{2}

=> A = 0.000177 m^{2}

∴ Strain = \frac{4000}{200000000000 * 0.000177} \\\\Strain = \frac{4000}{35400000}\\ \\Strain = 0.000113 = 1.13 * 10^{-4}

For the copper rod:

Y =  120 000 000 000 N/m²

F = 4000N

A = \pi r^{2}      (r = d/2 = 0.015/2 = 0.0075 m)

=> A = \pi * (0.0075)^{2}

=> A = 0.000177 m^{2}

Strain = \frac{4000}{120 000 000 000 * 0.000177} \\\\Strain = \frac{4000}{21240000}\\ \\Strain =  = 1.88 * 10^{-4}

(b) We can find the elongation by multiplying the Strain by the original length of the rods:

Elongation = Strain * Length

For the steel rod:

Elongation = 1.1 * 10^{-4} * 0.75 = 8.3 * 10^{-5} m

For the copper rod:

Elongation = 1.88 * 10^{-4} * 0.75 = 1.41 * 10^{-4} m

A cell membrane consists of an inner and outer wall separated by a distance of approximately 10nm. Assume that the walls act lik
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The options are approximations of the exact answers:

A) 1\times10^6N/C

B) 2\times10^{-13}N

C) 1\times10^{-2}V

D) Toward the inner wall

E) 3\times10^{-17}J

Explanation:

A) The electric field in a parallel plate capacitor is given by the formula E=\frac{\sigma}{k\epsilon_0}, where \epsilon_0=8.85\times10^{-12}C/Vm and in our case \sigma=10^5C/m^2 and, for air,k=1.00059, so we have:

E=\frac{10^5C/m^2}{(1.00059)(8.85\times10^{-12}C/Vm)}=1.13\times10^6N/C

B) The K+ ion has one elemental charge excess, so its charge is q=1.6\times10^{-19}C, and the force a charge experiments under an electric field E is given by F=qE, so we have:

F=(1.6\times10^{-19}C)(1.13\times10^6N/C)=1.81\times10^{-13}N

C) The potential difference between two points separated a distance d under an uniform electric potential E is given by \Delta V=dE, so we have:

\Delta V=(10\times10^{-9}m)(1.13\times10^6N/C)=1.13\times10^{-2}V

D) The electic field goes from positive to negative charges, so it goes towards the inner wall.

E) The work done by an electric field through a potential difference \Delta V on a charge Q is W=Q\Delta V, and is equal to the kinetic energy imparted on it, so we have:

K=(3\times10^{-15}C)(1.13\times10^{-2}V)=3.39\times10^{-17}J

A passenger bus is travelling 28.0 m/s to the right when the driver applies the brakes. The bus stops in 5.00 s. What is the acc
MAVERICK [17]
Change in velocity = d(v)
d(v) = v2 - v1 where v1 = initial speed, v2 = final speed
v1 = 28.0 m/s to the right
v2 = 0.00 m/s
d(v) = (0 - 28)m/s = -28 m/s to the right

Change in time = d(t)
d(t) = t2 - t1 where t1 = initial elapsed time, t2 = final elapsed time
t1 = 0.00 s
t2 = 5.00 s
d(t) = (5.00 - 0.00)s = 5.00s

Average acceleration = d(v) / d(t)
(-28.0 m/s) / (5.00 s)
(-28.0 m)/s * 1 / (5.00 s) = -5.60 m/s² to the right
