Answer:

a) The velocity of the rock after 1 s is 14.28 m/s.

b) The velocity of the rock after "a" seconds is  18 m/s - 3.72 m/s² · a

c) The rock will hit the ground after 9.7 s.

d) The velocity with which the rock hits the surface is -18.1 m/s

Explanation:

Hi there!

Let´s write the equation:

H(t) = 18 m/s · t - 1.86 m/s² · t²

The velocity is the variaiton of the height over time, in other words, it is the derivative of the height function with respect to time. Then:

v(t) = dH/dt = 18 m/s - 2 · 1.86 m/s² · t

v(t) = 18 m/s - 3.72 m/s² · t

a) When t = 1 s:

v(1 s) = 18  m/s - 3.72 m/s² · 1 s

v(1 s) = 14.28 m/s

b) When t = a:

v(a) = 18 m/s - 3.72 m/s² · a

c) When the rock hits the surface, the height of the rock is 0:

H(t) = 18 m/s · t - 1.86 m/s² · t²

0 = 18 m/s · t - 1.86 m/s² · t²

0 = t(18 m/s - 1.86 m/s² · t)

t = 0

and

18 m/s - 1.86 m/s² · t = 0

t = -18 m/s /- 1.86 m/s²

t = 9.7 s

d) Let´s use the equation of velocity to find the velocity at t =  9.7 s when the rock hits the ground.

v(t) = 18 m/s - 3.72 m/s² · t

v(9.7 s) = 18 m/s - 3.72 m/s² · 9.7 s

v(9.7 s) = -18.1 m/s

A machine part is vibrating along the x-axis in simple harmonic motion with a period of 0.27 s and a range (from the maximum in
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

x = -1.437 cm

Explanation:

The general equation for position of Simple harmonic motion is given as:

x = A sin(\omega t)          ........(1)

where,

x = Position of the wave

A = Amplitude of the wave

ω = Angular velocity

t = time

In this case, the amplitude is just half the range,

thus,

A =\frac{3cm}{2}=1.5cm  (Given range = 3cm)

A = 1.5 cm  

Now, The angular velocity is given as:

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}

Where, T = time period of the wave =0.27s (given)

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{0.27s}

or

\omega=23.27s^{-1}

so, at time t = 55 s, the equation (1) becomes as:

x = 1.5 sin(23.27\times 55)

on solving the above equation we get,

x = -1.437 cm

here the negative sign depicts the position in the opposite direction of +x

A siphon pumps water from a large reservoir to a lower tank that is initially empty. The tank also has a rounded orifice 20 ft b
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

height of the water rise in tank is 10ft

Explanation:

Apply the bernoulli's equation between the reservoir surface (1) and siphon exit (2)

\frac{P_1}{pg} + \frac{V^2_1}{2g} + z_1= \frac{P_2}{pg} + \frac{V_2^2}{2g} +z_2

\frac{P_1}{pg} + \frac{V^2_1}{2g} +( z_1-z_2)= \frac{P_2}{pg} + \frac{V_2^2}{2g}-------(1)

substitute P_a_t_m for P_1, (P_a_t_m +pgh) for P_2

0ft/s for V₁, 20ft for (z₁ - z₂) and 32.2ft/s² for g in eqn (1)

\frac{P_1}{pg} + \frac{V^2_1}{2g} +( z_1-z_2)= \frac{P_2}{pg} + \frac{V_2^2}{2g}

\frac{P_1}{pg} + \frac{0^2_1}{2g} +( 20)= \frac{(P_a_t_m+pgh)}{pg} +\frac{V^2_2}{2\times32.2} \\\\V_2 = \sqrt{64.4(20-h)}

Applying bernoulli's equation between tank surface (3) and orifice exit (4)

\frac{P_3}{pg} + \frac{V^2_3}{2g} + z_3= \frac{P_4}{pg} + \frac{V_4^2}{2g} +z_4

substitute

P_a_t_m for P_3, P_a_t_m for P_4

0ft/s for V₃, h for z₃, 0ft for z₄, 32,2ft/s² for g

\frac{P_a_t_m}{pg} + \frac{0^2}{2g} +h=\frac{P_a_t_m}{pg} + \frac{V_4^2}{2\times32.2} +0\\\\V_4 =\sqrt{64.4h}

At equillibrium Fow rate at point 2 is equal to flow rate at point 4

Q₂ = Q₄

A₂V₂ = A₃V₃

The diameter of the orifice and the siphon are equal , hence there area should be the same

substitute A₂ for A₃

\sqrt{64.4(20-h)} for V₂

\sqrt{64.4h} for V₄

A₂V₂ = A₃V₃

A_2\sqrt{64.4(20-h)} = A_2\sqrt{64.4h}\\\\20-h=h\\\\h= 10ft

Therefore ,height of the water rise in tank is 10ft

An astronaut weighs 8.00 × 102 newtons on the sur- face of Earth. What is the weight of the astronaut 6.37 × 106 meters above th
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

mg=200.4 N.

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using Newton's law of universal gravitation: F=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}},

where F is the gravitational force between two masses m_{1} and m_{2}, r is the distance between the masses (their center of mass), and G=6.674*10^{-11}(m^{3}kg^{-1}s^{-2}) is the gravitational constant.

We know the weight of the astronout on the surface, with this we can find his mass. Letting w_{s} be the weight on the surface:

w_{s}=mg,

mg=8*10^{2},

m=(8*10^{2})/g,

since we now that g=9.8m/s^{2} we get that the mass is

m=81.6kg.

Now we can use Newton's law of universal gravitation

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}},  

where m is the mass of the astronaut and M is the mass of the earth. From Newton's second law we know that

F=ma,

in this case the acceleration is the gravity so

F=mg, (<u>becarefull, gravity at this point is no longer</u> 9.8m/s^{2} <u>because we are not in the surface anymore</u>)

and this get us to

mg=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}, where mg is his new weight.

We need to remember that the mass of the earth is M=5.972*10^{24}kg and its radius is 6.37*10^{6}m.

The total distance between the astronaut and the earth is

r=(6.37*10^{6}+6.37*10^{6})=2(6.37*10^{6})=12.74*10^{6} meters.

Now we can compute his weigh:

mg=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}},

mg=(6.674*10^{-11})\frac{(5.972*10^{24})(81.6)}{(12.74*10^{6})^{2}},

mg=200.4 N.
