Answer: 0.56 m/s

Explanation:

hello, there is 25° inclination angle for the chute in the drawing. Thankfully, I know this problem. The conservation of momentum.

so there are X and Y components for the momentum in this problem. The Y component is not conserved as when the coal gets in the cart, the normal force exerted by the surface reduces it to 0.

Now, the X component is definitely conserved here.

so you have the momentum of the cart which is 440*0.5 added to the momentum of the chunk which is 150*0.8*cos(25°), that is the momentum before the coupling between the objects. Afterwards both objects will have the same velocity, so we write the equation like this:

440*0.5 + 150*0.8*cos(25) = 440*v_{final} + 150*v_{final} \\ => 220+120*cos(25) = (440+150)v_{final} => v_{final} = \frac{220+120*cos(25)}{590}  = 0.56 m/s

For years, space travel was believed to be impossible because there was nothing there Rockets could push off in space in order t
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Because rockets do accelerate in space and have been able to do so for a long time.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

A rocket is made to reach the sky and its required destination by the burning of fuels in the rocket. So there is no need of any other external forces to propel them in space. As per Newton's third law, the action and reaction forces will help the rockets to escape the orbit of earth.

And then the remaining energy required by the rocket to travel in space will be obtained from the burning of fuels in the compartments. This burning of fuels in respective compartments will propel the rockets in space. So it is a complete myth that space travel was impossible before because of inability to provide propulsion in space.

The density of a material is constant and it is given by the ratio of the mass to the volume of the material

The mass of the liquid and the full bottle ae

The mass of the liquid is <u>450 g</u>

The mass of the filled bottle is <u>530 grams</u>

<u></u>

The reason the above values are correct are as follows:

The given parameters are;

Volume of the bottle, V = Half litre

Mass of the bottle, m_b = 80 g

The volume of liquid in the bottle when filled, V = 500 cm³

The density of the olive oil with which the bottle is filled, ρ = 0.9 g/cm³

a. Required:

To calculate the mass of oil in the bottle

Solution:

The volume of oil in the bottle when the bottle is filled, V = 500 cm³

Density, \ \rho = \dfrac{Mass}{Volume}  = \dfrac{m}{V}

The mass of the liquid, m = ρ × V

∴ m = 0.9 g/cm³ × 500 cm³ = 450 g

The mass of the liquid, m = <u>450 g</u>

<u></u>

b. The mass of the oil in the bottle, m = grams

The mass of the full bottle, m_{filled} = m + m_b

∴ m_{filled} = 450 g + 80 g = 530 g

The mass of the full bottle, m_{filled} = <u>530 grams</u>

A particle decelerates uniformly from a speed of 30 cm/s to rest in a time interval of 5.0 s. It then has a uniform acceleration
wel

Answer:

V=20cm/s

Explanation:

The average speed is the distance total divided the time total:

V=X/T

First stage:

T1=5s

v_{f}  =v_{o} - at

But, v_{f}  =0   (decelerates to rest)

then: a =v_{o} /t=0.3/5=0.06m/s^{2}

on the other hand:

x =v_{o}*t - 1/2*at^{2}=0.3*5-1/2*0.06*5^{2}=0.75m

X1=75cm

Second stage:

T2=5s

x =v_{o}*t + 1/2*at^{2}=0+1/2*0.1*5^{2}=1.25m

X2=125cm

Finally:

X=X1+X2=200cm

T=T1+T2=10s

V=X/T=20cm/s

You are flying a hang glider at 14 mph in the northeast direction (45°). The wind is blowing at 4 mph from due north.
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

<em>a) 17.05 mph</em>

<em>b) 54.7°  northeast direction</em>

<em>c) 10.71 mph</em>

<em>The direction is -22.58° relative to the east.</em>

<em></em>

<em>To head northeast, you must either increase your gliding speed or increase your angle relative to the x-axis greater than 45°.</em>

Explanation:

The question is a little confusing but, I guess the correct question should be;

You are flying a hang glider at 14 mph in the northeast direction (45°). The wind is blowing at 4 mph due north.

a) What is your airspeed?

b) What angle (direction) are you flying?

c) The wind increases to 14 mph from north. Now what is your airspeed and what direction are you flying? If your destination is to the northeast, how would you change your speed or direction so you might make it there?

NB: The difference in the question and my suggestion is highlighted boldly.

Your speed = 14 mph

direction is 45° northeast

Th wind speed = 4 mph

direction is north

We resolve the your speed and the wind speed into the horizontal and vertical components

For vertical the component component

V_{y} = 14(sin 45) + 4 = 9.89 + 4 = 13.89 mph

For the horizontal speed component

V_{x} = 14(cos 45) + 0 = 9.89 + 0 = 9.89 mph

Resultant speed = \sqrt{V^{2} _{y}+V^{2} _{x}  }

==> \sqrt{13.89^{2} +9.89^{2}   } = <em>17.05 mph  This is your airspeed</em>

b) To get your direction, we use

tan ∅ = V_{y} /V_{x}

tan ∅ = 13.89/9.89 = 1.413

∅ = tan^{-1}(1.413) = <em>54.7°  northeast direction</em>

c) If the wind increases to 14 mph from the north, then it means the wind blows due south. As before, only the vertical component is affected .

In this case,

V_{y} = 14(sin 45) - 14 = 9.89 - 14 = -4.11 mph

Resultant speed = \sqrt{V^{2} _{y}+V^{2} _{x}  }

==> \sqrt{4.11^{2} +9.89^{2}   } = <em>10.71 mph  This is your airspeed</em>

Your direction will be,

tan ∅ = V_{y} /V_{x}

tan ∅ = -4.11/9.89 = -0.416

∅ = tan^{-1}(-0.416) =<em> -22.58°  this is the angle you'll travel relative to the east.</em>

<em>To head northeast, you must either increase your gliding speed or increase your angle relative to the x-axis greater than 45°.</em>

An experiment to measure the speed of light uses an apparatus similar to Fizeau's. The distance between the light source and the
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

2.88*10^{8} m/s

Explanation:

The speed of light is given by

c=\frac {2d}{t} and t=\frac {\theta}{\omega} hence

c=\omega\frac {2d}{\theta}

Speed of light is given by

c=900\times 2\pi(\frac {2\times 10}{\frac {2\pi}{2*800}}})=2.88*10^{8} m/s
