Your school science club has devised a special event for homecoming. You've attached a rocket to the rear of a small car that ha

s been decorated in the blue-and-gold school colors. The rocket provides a constant acceleration for 9.0s. As the rocket shuts off, a parachute opens and slows the car at a rate of 5.0m/s2. The car passes the judges' box in the center of the grandstand, 990m from the starting line, exactly 12s after you fire the rocket. Part A What is the car's speed as it passes the judges

La force agissant pendant 9 s et la décélération pendant 12 - 9 = 3 s.

Distance totale parcourue = 990 m

vitesse initiale u = 0

Distance parcourue pendant l'accélération

s₁ = 1/2 a 9² où a est l'accélération

= 40.5 a

vitesse finale après 9 s

v = at = 9a

pendant la décélération

v² = u² - 5 x s₂

0 = (9a)² - 5 s₂

s₂ = 16.2 a²

Distance parcourue pendant la décélération = 16.2 a²

s₁ + s₂ = 990

40.5 a + 16.2 a² = 990

16.2 a² + 40.5 a - 990 = 0

a = 6.5

A good quarterback can throw a football at 27 m/s (about 60 mph). If we assume that the ball is caught at the same height from w
ValentinkaMS [3084]

Response:

The ball remained airborne for 3.896 seconds

Explanation:

Given that

g = 9.8 m/s², representing gravitational acceleration,

If the angle of launch is 45°, the horizontal range will be maximized.

Both horizontal and vertical launch velocities are equal, each equating to

v_h  =  v cos θ

v_h  =  27 × cos 45°

         = 19.09 m/s.

The duration to reach maximum height is half of the flight time.

v = u + at   ∵ v = 0 (at maximum height)

19.09 - 9.8 t₁ = 0

t₁ = 1.948 s

The total time in the air equals twice the time to reach maximum height

2 t₁ = 3.896 s

The horizontal distance covered is

D = v × t

D = 3.896×19.09

   = 74.375 m

The ball was in the air for 3.896 seconds

a 75 kg man is standing at rest on ice while holding a 4kg ball. if the man throws the ball at a velocity of 3.50 m/s forward, w
Keith_Richards [2897]

Answer:

The resulting velocity for him will be 0.187 m/s in reverse direction.

Explanation:

Given:

The mass of the man is, M=75\ kg

The mass of the ball is, m=4\ kg

The initial velocity of the man is, u_m=0\ m/s(rest)

The initial velocity of the ball is, u_b=0\ m/s(rest)

The final velocity of the ball is, v_b=3.50\ m/s

The final velocity of the man is, v_m=?\ m/s

To determine this scenario, we employ the principle of momentum conservation.

This principle states that the total initial momentum equals the total final momentum.

Momentum is calculated by multiplying mass by velocity.

Initial momentum = Initial momentum of the man and the ball

Initial momentum = Mu_m+mu_b=75\times 0+4\times 0 =0\ Nm

Final momentum = Final momentum of the man and the ball

Final momentum = Mv_m+mv_b=75\times v_m+4\times 3.50 =75v_m+14

Hence, the total initial momentum equals the total final momentum

0=75v_m+14\\\\75v_m=-14\\\\v_m=\frac{-14}{75}\\\\v_m=-0.187\ m/s

The negative sign indicates that the man moves backward.

Thus, his final velocity ends up being 0.187 m/s backward.

An archer fires an arrow, which produces a muffled "thwok" as it hits a target. If the archer hears the "thwok" exactly 1 s afte
Ostrovityanka [2814]

Answer:

35.79 meters

Explanation:

We have an archer, and there is a target. Denote the distance between them as d.

The bowman releases the arrow, which travels the distance d at a velocity of 40 m/s until it hits the target. We establish the equation as:

v_{arrow} * t_{arrow} = d\\ \\40 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = d

Right after this, the arrow produces a muffled noise, traveling the same distance d at a speed of 340 m/s in time t_{sound}. Thus, we can derive:

v_{sound} * t_{sound} = d\\ \\340 \frac{m}{s} * t_{sound} = d.

Consequently, the sound reaches the archer, precisely 1 second post-firing the bow, resulting in:

t_{arrow} + t _{sound} = 1 s.

Using this relationship in the distance formula for sound allows us to write:

340 \frac{m}{s} * t_{sound} = d \\ \\ 340 \frac{m}{s} * (1 s- t_{arrow}) = d.

Substituting the value of d from the first equation yields:

40 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = d \\ 40 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = 340 \frac{m}{s} * (1 s- t_{arrow}).

Now, after some calculations, we can proceed further:

40 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = 340 \frac{m}{s} * 1 s - 340 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} \\ \\ 40 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} + 340 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = 340 m \\ \\ 380 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = 340 m \\ \\ t_{arrow} = \frac{340 m}{380 \frac{m}{s}} \\ \\ t_{arrow} = 0.8947 s.

Finally, the value is inserted into the initial equation:

40 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = d

40 \frac{m}{s} * 340/380 s = 35,79 s = d

A firecracker breaks up into several pieces, one of which has a mass of 200 g and flies off along the x-axis with a speed of 82.
Maru [2973]

Answer:

La magnitud del momento total es de 21.2 kg m/s y su dirección es de 39.5° respecto al eje x.

Explanation:

¡Hola!

El momento total se calcula como la suma de los momentos de las piezas.

El momento de cada pieza se calcula de la siguiente manera:

p = m · v

Donde:

p = momento.

m = masa.

v = velocidad.

El momento es un vector. La pieza de 200 g se mueve a lo largo del eje x, por lo que su momento será:

p = (m · v, 0)

p = (0.200 kg · 82.0 m/s, 0)

p = (16.4 kg m/s, 0)

La pieza de 300 g se mueve a lo largo del eje y. Su vector momento será:

p =(0, m · v)

p = (0, 0.300 kg · 45.0 m/s)

p = (0, 13.5 kg m/s)

El momento total es la suma de cada momento:

Momento total = (16.4 kg m/s, 0) + (0, 13.5 kg m/s)

Momento total = (16.4 kg m/s + 0, 0 + 13.5 kg m/s)

Momento total = (16.4 kg m/s, 13.5 kg m/s)

La magnitud del momento total se calcula de la siguiente manera:

|p| = \sqrt{(16.4 kgm/s)^2+(13.5 kg m/s)^2}= 21.2 kg m/s

La dirección del vector de momento se calcula utilizando trigonometría:

cos θ = px/p

Donde px es el componente horizontal del momento total y p es la magnitud del momento total.

cos θ = 16.4 kg m/s / 21.2 kg m/s

θ = 39.3 (39.5° si no redondeamos la magnitud del momento total)

<pFinalmente, la magnitud del momento total es 21.2 kg m/s y su dirección es 39.5° respecto al eje x.
