An astronaut whose mass is 80. kg and is initially at rest carries an empty oxygen tank with a mass of 10. kg. He throws the tank away from himself with a speed of 2.0 m/s. With what velocity does he start to move off into spa

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.25 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum

Mu+ mu = Mv' + m v

M= mass of the astronaut = 80 kg

m= mass of the oxygen tank= 10 Kg

v= speedof the tank 2 m/s

u= initial velocity of the system= 0

If we substitute the values, we have

( 80× 0 )+(10×0)= [(80 x v )+ (10 x 2)]

0= 80v + 20

-20=80v

v= -0.25 m/s ( we have a negative value because the astronaut and the motion of the cylinder are in opposite direction)

Hence the velocity the astronaut start to move off into space is 0.25 m/s

A 5 kilogram block is dropped from a height of 3 meters and falls straight to the ground. What is the work done by the force of gravity?

Answers

Answer:

Workdone = 147Nm

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 5kg

Height = 3m

We know that acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s²

First of all, we would find the force applied;

[tex] Force = mass * acceleration [/tex]

Force = 5*9.8

Force = 49N

Now, to find the workdone;

[tex] Workdone = force * distance [/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Workdone = 49 * 3

Workdone = 147Nm

When a skydiver jumps out of a plane in free fall, they hit a
terminal velocity of approximatley 120 miles/hour. How can
they can increase their terminal velocity?

Answers

Answer:

By decreasing the surface area exposed to the air. Vertical body position instead of horizontal.

Explanation:

So the terminal velocity formula is as follows.

v = sqrt[(2*m*g)/(p*A*c)]

m = mass

g = 9.81 m/s^2

p = density of air

A = surface area of object

c = Drag coefficient

So the only thing you can change in mid-air is surface area.

If we double the frequency of a system undergoing simple harmonic motion, which of the following statements about that system are true?

a. The angular frequency is doubled.
b. The amplitude is doubled.
c. The period is doubled.
d. The angular frequency is reduced to one-half of what it was.
e. The period is reduced to one-half of what it was.

Answers

Answer:

a. The angular frequency is doubled.

e. The period is reduced to one-half of what it was.

Explanation:

Angular frequency is given as;

ω = 2πf

[tex]\frac{\omega _1}{f_1} = \frac{\omega _2}{f_2}[/tex]

when the frequency is doubled

[tex]\frac{\omega _1}{f_1} = \frac{\omega _2}{(2f_1)} \\\\\omega _1 = \frac{\omega _2}{2}\\\\\omega _2 = 2\omega _1[/tex]

Thus, the angular frequency will be doubled.

Amplitude in simple harmonic motion is the maximum displacement.

Frequency is related to period in simple harmonic motion as given in the equation below;

[tex]f = \frac{1}{T} \\\\f_1T_1= f_2T_2\\\\T_2 = \frac{f_1T_1}{f_2}[/tex]

when the frequency is doubled;

[tex]T_2 = \frac{f_1T_1}{2f_1} \\\\T_2 = \frac{T_1}{2}[/tex]

Thus, the period will be reduced to one-half of what it was.

7.A builder carrying 6 bricks climbs a ladder. The weight of each brick is 25 N and the builder climbs a vertical distance of 4 meters in 8 seconds. Calculate the power used to raise all the bricks.

Answers

Answer:

The power used to raise all the bricks is 75 watts.

Explanation:

Given;

number of blocks = 6

weight of each block = 25 N

vertical distance climbed by the builder, d = 4m

time to climb the the vertical distance, t = 8 seconds

Weight of the 6 blocks, F = 6 x 25 N = 150 N

speed of the build, v = 4 / 8 = 0.5 m/s

The power used to raise all the bricks is calculated as;

P = Fv

P = (150)(0.5)

P = 75 watts.

Therefore, the power used to raise all the bricks is 75 watts.

A man is picked up by a tornado and dropped a quarter mile away from his home. Even though authorities estimate that his body was dropped at 30 mph he suffered no major injuries. What factors contributed to the fact that his body was able to withstand this drop?

Answers

Answer:

the factor that contributed to the fact that he was able to survive this fall is due to the fact that his body is made up of bone which are strong and his skeleton also protected all his vitals internal organs. His body went limp after he was knocked in the head when he fell, all of these made room allowing his muscles to relax and this gave his bones the opportunity to absorb the impact of the fall

If a man was dropped by the tornado from a distance of a quarter away from home. As per the authorities, he was dropped least at a speed of 30 mph. The man suffered no main injuries and survived.

The factors that would have contributed to the man's body able to withstand the drop were the air current that were so strong that he may have landed in a safe place.  The fact that he fell from lesser height or the man might have been fat.

An object travels at 3.06 m distance with uniform acceleration in this interval it's velocity increases by 0.18 and it's average velocity over the interval was 0.34 m/s what is the acceleration?

Answers

Given that,

Distance travelled, d = 3.06 m

Final velocity, v = 0.18 m/s

Average velocity of the object, V = 0.34 m/s

To find,

The acceleration of the object.

Solution,

Let t is the time in which it covers distance d. Average velocity is given by distance covered divided by time.

[tex]V=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{d}{V}\\\\t=\dfrac{3.06}{0.34}\\\\t=9\ s[/tex]

Let a is the acceleration of the object. Using equation of motion to find it :

[tex]a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{0.18-0}{9}\\\\a=0.02\ m/s^2[/tex]

So, the acceleration of the object is 0.02 m/s².

Answers

Answer:

v = 10 [m/s]

Explanation:

The largest mass is that of 4 [kg], in this way the momentum can be calculated by means of the product of the mass by velocity.

[tex]P=m*v\\[/tex]

where:

P = momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass = 4 [kg]

v = velocity = 5 [m/s]

Now the momentum:

[tex]P=4*5\\P=20[kg*m/s][/tex]

This same momentum is equal for the other mass, in this way we can find the velocity.

[tex]P=m*v\\20=2*v\\v=10[m/s][/tex]

During a fireworks display, a shell is shot into the air at an angle of theta degrees above the horizontal. The fuse is timed to 8.6 seconds for the shell just as it reaches its highest point above the ground. If the horizontal displacement of the shell is 81.7 meters when it explodes, what is the angle theta of the initial velocity

Answers

Answer:

θ = 83.6º

Explanation:

Once the shell is in the air, the only influence acting on it (assuming that the resistance of the air is negligible) is gravity.Gravity acts on the shell accelerating it in the vertical direction with a=g=-9.8 m/s2 (taking the upward direction as the positive one).Since movements in perpendicular directions are independent each other, we conclude that in the horizontal direction, speed must be constant.So, we can find the speed in the horizontal direction (the projection of the velocity vector along the horizontal axis) applying simply the definition of average velocity, as follows:

       [tex]v_{avg} =\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t} (1)[/tex]

Taking the launch site as the origin, and making the horizontal direction coincident with the x-axis (positive to the right), we know that the horizontal displacement is 81.7 m, and the time at the explosion, 8.6 s, so we can write the horizontal component of the velocity vector (its projection along the x-axis) as follows:

       [tex]v_{x} = \frac{81.7m}{8.6s} = v_{o} * cos \theta = 9.5 m/s (2)[/tex]

In the vertical direction, since we know that the shell will explode when it reaches to the maximum height, at this point just before exploding, the vertical component of the velocity is just zero, even though it continues being accelerated downward.Applying the definition of acceleration, replacing a by the value of g, we can write the following expression:

        [tex]v_{fy} = v_{oy} - g*t = v_{o} * sin \theta -g*t = 0 (3)[/tex]

⇒      v₀* sin θ = g*t = 9.8m/s2* 8.6s = 84.3 m/s (4)

Dividing (4) by (2), we can find tg θ (the angle of the initial velocity with the x-axis), as follows:

       [tex]\frac{v_{o}* sin \theta}{v_{o}* cos \theta} = tg \theta= \frac{84.3m/s}{9.5m/s} = 8.87 (5)[/tex]

⇒    θ = tg⁻¹ (8.87) = 83.6º

a small rocket is launched vertically upward from the edge of a cliff 400 ft off the ground at the speed of 200 ft/s. its height above the ground is given by the function h(t)

Answers

Question:

A small rocket is launched vertically upward from the edge of a cliff 80 ft off the ground at a speed of 69 ft/s. Its height (in feet) above the ground is given by  [tex]h(t) = - 25t^2 + 200t + 400[/tex] where t represents time measured in seconds.

Assuming the rocket is launched at t=0, what is an appropriate domain for h?

Answer:

[tex]0 \le t \le 9.66[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

[tex]h(t) = - 25t^2 + 200t + 400[/tex]

Required

Determine the domain of h

The initial value of t is 0.

i.e.

[tex]t = 0[/tex] --- This is given in the question

To determine the final value, we simply solve for t in [tex]h(t) = - 25t^2 + 200t + 400[/tex]

Rewrite the expression:

[tex]- 25t^2 + 200t + 400=0[/tex]

Divide through by -25

[tex]\frac{-25t^2}{-25} + \frac{200t}{-25} + \frac{400}{25}=\frac{0}{-25}[/tex]

[tex]t^2 - 8t - 16 = 0[/tex]

Using quadratic formula:

[tex]t = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Where

[tex]a= 1[/tex]    [tex]b = -8[/tex]  and [tex]c = -16[/tex]

The expression becomes:

[tex]t = \frac{-(-8)\±\sqrt{(-8)^2 - 4*1*(-16)}}{2*1}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{8\±\sqrt{64+ 64}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{8\±\sqrt{128}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{128} = 11.31[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]t = \frac{8\±11.31}{2}[/tex]

Split

[tex]t = \frac{8+11.31}{2}\ or\ t = \frac{8-11.31}{2}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{19.31}{2}\ or\ t = \frac{-3.31}{2}[/tex]

[tex]t = 9.66\ or\ t = -1.66[/tex]

But time can't be negative.

So:

[tex]t = 9.66[/tex]

Hence, the domain is:

[tex]0 \le t \le 9.66[/tex]
