A penny is dropped from the top of the chrysler building ( 320 m high) . How fast is it moving when it hits the ground?

Answers

As the penny falls 320 meters, its vertical velocity increases at the rate of 9.8 m/s each second. Use the following equation to determine its speed when it hits the ground.
vf^2 = vi^2 + 2 * a * d, vi = 0
vf^2 = 2 * 9.8 * 320
vf = √6272
This is approximately 79 m/s. I hope this helps you to understand how to solve this type of problem.

A sports car starts from rest at an intersection and accelerates toward the east on a straight road at 9.0 m/s2. Just as the sports car starts to move, a bus traveling east at a constant 16 m/s on the same straight road passes the sports car. When the sports car catches up with and passes the bus, how much time has elapsed

Answers

Answer:

3.6s

Explanation:

Have In mind that the sports car will catch up with bus when their positions are equal

So

S = ut + 1/2at²

where u is initial velocity

For sports car we have

x = 0 + 1/2 x 9 x t²

For Bus

S= 16ts + 0

Equating the two

1/2 x 9 x t² = 16t

An object, initially at rest, moves 250 m in 17 s. What is its acceleration?

Answers

Answer:

1.73 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 250 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

t = 17 s

Find: a

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

250 m = (0 m/s) (17 s) + ½ a (17 s)²

a = 1.73 m/s²

The acceleration of this object is 1.730 meter per seconds square.

Given the following data:

Initial velocity = 2.5 m/s (since the object is starting from rest).Time = 17 seconds.

To find the acceleration of this object, we  would use the second equation of motion.

Mathematically, the second equation of motion is given by the formula;

[tex]S = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2[/tex]

Where:

S is the displacement or distance covered.u is the initial velocity.a is the acceleration.t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting the given values into the formula, we have;

[tex]250 = 0(17) + \frac{1}{2} (a)(17^2)\\\\250 = \frac{1}{2} (289)a\\\\250 = 144.5a\\\\a = \frac{250}{144.5}[/tex]

Acceleration, a = 1.730 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]

Therefore, the acceleration of this object is 1.730 meter per seconds square.

Air that initially occupies 0.22 m3 at a gauge pressure of 86 kPa is expanded isothermally to a pressure of 101.3 kPa and then cooled at constant pressure until it reaches its initial volume. Compute the work done by the air. (Gauge pressure is the difference between the actual pressure and atmospheric pressure.)

Answers

Answer:

total work done = -5960.8 J

Explanation:

given data

initial volume v1 = 0.22 m³

initial pressure  p1 = 86 kPa

final pressue p2 = 101.3 kPa

solution

we apply here  isothermal expansion that is express as

p1 × v1 = p2 × v2    ......................1

put here value

86 × 0.22 = 101.3 × v2

v2 = 0.1867 m³  

and

work done will be here

w1 = p1 × v1  × ln([tex]\frac{p1}{p2}[/tex])      ....................2

w1 = 86 × 10³ × 0.22 × [tex]ln(\frac{86}{101.3})[/tex]

w1 = -3.097  × 10³ J

and

it is cooled to initial volume at constant pressure  so here work done will be

w2 = p(v2 - v1)    .................3

w2 =  86 × 10³ × ( 0.1867 - 0.22 )

w2 = -2863.8 J

so

total work done is

total work done = w1 + w2

total work done = -3097 +  -2863.8

total work done = -5960.8 J

You drop a ball from a window located on an upper floor of a building. It strikes the ground with speed v. You now repeat the drop, but you ask a friend down on the ground to throw another ball upward at speed v. Your friend throws the ball upward at the same moment that you drop yours from the window. At some location, the balls pass each other. Is this location.

Answers

Answer:

 y = y₀ (1 - ½ g y₀ / v²)

Explanation:

This is a free fall problem. Let's start with the ball that is released from the window, with initial velocity vo = 0 and a height of the window i

          y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

          y = y₀ - ½ g t²

for the ball thrown from the ground with initial velocity v₀₂ = v

         y₂ = y₀₂ + v₀₂ t - ½ g t²

     

in this case y₀ = 0

         y₂2 = v t - ½ g t²

at the point where the two balls meet, they have the same height

         y = y₂

         y₀ - ½ g t² = vt - ½ g t²

         y₀i = v t

         t = y₀ / v

since we have the time it takes to reach the point, we can substitute in either of the two equations to find the height

         y = y₀ - ½ g t²

         y = y₀ - ½ g (y₀ / v)²

         y = y₀ - ½ g y₀² / v²

        y = y₀ (1 - ½ g y₀ / v²)

with this expression we can find the meeting point of the two balls

what is the direction of initial velocity

Answers

Answer:

In the - j direction, that is negative of the y-axis

Explanation:

As typed in the question, the position of the object is given by the expression in three component ( i, j, k) form:

r (t) = 5  i  - (t + 1 )  j  + t^3  k

and since the velocity is the derivative of position with respect to time, by doing the derivative of this expression we get:

v(t) = 0  i  -  1  j   +3 t^2  k

which for the initial velocity requested (that is at time zero) we have:

v(t) = 0  i  -  1  j   +3 (0)^2  k = = 1  j

Then the direction of the initial velocity is entirely in the direction of the j versor, that is pointing to the negative of the y-axis.

Answers

Answer:

 a = 1.1 10⁵ m / s²

Explanation:

This is a momentum exercise, where we use the relationship between momentum and momentum

          I = ∫ F dt = Δp

= p_f - p₀

as they indicate that the ball bounces at the same height, we can assume that the moment when it reaches the ground is equal to the moment when it bounces, but in the opposite direction

        F t = 2 (m v)

therefore the average force is

         F = 2 m v / t

where in general the mass of the ball unknown, the velocity of the ball can be calculated using the conservation of energy

starting point. Done the ball is released with zero initial velocity

        Em₀ = U = mgh

final point. Upon reaching the ground, just before the deformation begins

        Em_f = K = ½ m v²

energy is conserved in this system

        Em₀ = Em_f

        m g h = ½ m v²

        v = √ (2gh)

This is the velocity of the body when it reaches the ground, so the force remains

        F = 2m √(2gh)   /t

where the height of the person's chest is known and the time that the impact with the floor lasts must be estimated in general is of the order of milli seconds

knowing this force let's use Newton's second law

          F = m a

          a = F / m

 

          a = 2 √(2gh) / t

We can estimate the order of magnitude of this acceleration, assuming the person's chest height of h = 1.5 m and a collision time of t = 1 10⁻³ s

         a = 2 √ (2 9.8 1.5) / 10⁻³

A car starts at 80 m/s but sees a cop and hits the brakes slowing down to 50 m/s in 2 sec.

Answers

Answer:

-15m/s/s

Explanation:

Acceleration = change in speed/ change in time

The change in speed is calculated by subtracting the initial speed from the final speed, so the change in speed is: 50 - 80 = -30m/s. The change in time is 2 - 0 = 2.

So the car acceleration is -30/2 = -15m/s/s

It is negative because it is decelerating.

Part A
Your GPS shows that your friend’s house is 10.0 km away (Figure 2). But there is a big hill between your houses and you don’t want to bike there directly. You know your friend’s street is 6.0 km north of your street. How far do you have to ride before turning north to get to your friend’s house?
8 km
Part B
Referring to the diagram in Part A, what is the sine of the angle
θ at the location of the friend's house?

Answers

Answer:

Part A

You have to ride 8.0 km before turning north to get to your friend’s house.

Part B

The sine of the angle  θ at the location of the friend's house is 0.8

Explanation:

The remaining part of the question which is an image is attached below

Explanation:

Part A

To determine how far you will ride ride before turning north,

From the diagram, that is the distance of your street.

Let the distance of your street be [tex]A[/tex]

and the distance of your friend's street be [tex]B[/tex]

and let the displacement between your friends house and your house be [tex]C[/tex]

The relation in the diagram shows a right angle triangle.

The sides of the right angle triangle are represented as [tex]A,B[/tex] and [tex]C[/tex].

To find [tex]A[/tex], which is the distance of your street,

From Pythagorean theorem, 'The square of hypotenuse is the sum of squares of the other two sides'

That is,

[tex]/Hypoyenuse/^{2} = /Adjacent/^{2} + /Opposite/^{2}[/tex]

[tex]C[/tex] is the hypotenuse, which is the displacement between your friends house and your house,

Hence, [tex]C = 10.0 km[/tex]

[tex]B[/tex] is adjacent, which is the distance of your friends street

then, [tex]B = 6.0 km[/tex]

and [tex]A[/tex] is the opposite, which is the distance of your house

From Pythagoras theorem, we can then write that,

[tex]C^{2} = B^{2} + A^{2}[/tex]

Then, [tex]10.0^{2} = 6.0^{2} + A^{2}[/tex]

[tex]A^{2} = 100.0 - 36.0\\A^{2} = 64.0\\A = \sqrt{64.0}[/tex]

[tex]A = 8.0km[/tex]

Hence, you have to ride 8.0 km before turning north to get to your friend’s house.

Part B

To find the sine of the angle  θ at the location of the friend's house,

In the diagram, the sine of the angle  θ is given by

[tex]Sin\theta = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

Hence, [tex]Sin\theta = \frac{A}{C}[/tex]

Then,

[tex]Sin\theta = \frac{8.0}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Sin\theta = 0.8[/tex]

Hence, the sine of the angle  θ at the location of the friend's house is 0.8

A. The amount of distance you have to ride before turning North to get to your friend’s house is 8 kilometers.

B. The sine of the angle (θ) at the location of your friend's house is 0.8.

Let your friend's house be a.Let your friend's street be b.Let the distance between your house and your friend be c.

Given the following data:

Distance c = 10 kmDistance a = 6 km

A. To determine the amount of distance you have to ride before turning North to get to your friend’s house, we would apply Pythagorean's theorem:

Mathematically, Pythagorean's theorem is given by the formula:

[tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2\\\\10^2 =6^2+b^2\\\\100=36+b^2\\\\b^2 =100-36\\\\b^2 =64\\\\b=\sqrt{64}[/tex]

b = 8 kilometers

B. To find the sine of the angle (θ) at the location of the friend's house:

Mathematically, the sine of an angle is given by the formula:

[tex]Sin\theta = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]Sin\theta = \frac{8}{10} \\\\Sin\theta = 0.8[/tex]

B) 880 Hz
C) 436 Hz
D) either 436 Hz or 444 Hz

Answers

Answer:

D) either 436 Hz or 444 Hz

Explanation:

frequency of the tuning fork, F₁ =  440 Hz

frequency of the piano, F₂ = ?

Beat frequency, F = 4 Hz

Beat frequency is given as the difference between the frequency of the two instruments  and it is given by;

F = F₂ - F₁                    or        F =  F₁ - F₂

F₂ = F + F₁                   or        F - F₁ = - F₂

F₂ = 4 Hz + 440 Hz    or       4 - 440 = - F₂

F₂ = 444 Hz                or      - 436 = - F₂

F₂ = 444 Hz               or         F₂ = 436 Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the piano is 444 Hz or 436 Hz

In 40.9 m you will reach a barrier and you must catch the shuttle before that point. The shuttle has a constant acceleration of 4.5 m/s2. What is the minimum velocity you have to run at to catch the bus before it reaches the barrier

Answers

Answer:

20.1 m/s

Explanation:

Since You are later than usual getting to the stop and see the shuttle pulling away from the stop while you are still 3.9 m behind the bus stop. And In 40.9 m you will reach a barrier and you must catch the shuttle before that point.

Given that the shuttle has a constant acceleration of 4.5 m/s2. 

The total distance to cover is:

Total distance = 40.9 + 3.9 = 44.8 m

Assuming you are starting from rest. Then initial velocity U = 0

Using the 3rd equation of motion to calculate the minimum velocity.

V^2 = U^2 + 2as

V^2 = 0 + 2 × 4.5 × 44.8

V^2 = 403.2

V = sqrt (403.2)

V = 20.1 m/s

Therefore, the minimum velocity you have to run at to catch the bus before it reaches the barrier is 20.1 m/s

How far ahead of you was this person when you started running

Answers

Answer:

The value is [tex]d = 31.45 \ m [/tex]

Explanation:

Generally the relative speed at which you are moving with respect to the person ahead of you is mathematically represented as

[tex]v_r = v_s - v_c[/tex]

substituting 1.05 m/s for [tex] v_c [/tex] and 2.75 m/s for [tex]v_s[/tex]

So

[tex]v_r = 2.75 - 1.05[/tex]

=> [tex]v_r = 1.7 \ m/s [/tex]

Generally the distance by which the person is ahead of you is mathematically represented as

[tex]d = v_r * t[/tex]

substituting 18.5 s for [tex] t [/tex]

The 657-K reservoir also serves as the hot reservoir for a second Carnot engine. This second engine uses the rejected heat of the first engine as input and extracts additional work from it. The rejected heat from the second engine goes into a reservoir that has a temperature of 406 K. Find the total work delivered by the two engines.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Efficiency of first engine

= T₁ - T₂ / T₁  where T₁ is temperature of hot reservoir , T₂ is temperature of cold reservoir

= (889 - 657 ) / 889

= ,261 or 26.1 %

output of work = .261 x 4710 = 1229.15 J .

Efficiency of second engine

=  (657 - 406 ) / 657

= .382

Heat rejected in engine one is heat input of second engine

heat input of second engine = 4710 - 1229.15 = 3480.85

output of work of second engine

=  .382 x 3480.85 = 1329.68 J

Total work delivered by two engine

= 1229.15  +  1329.68 J

= 2558.83 J

The chilled water system for a 27-story building has a pump located at ground level. The lost head in a vertical riser from the pump to an equipment room on the twenty-seventh floor is 40ft of water, and the pump produces 270ft of head. What is the pressure on the suction side of the pump for a pressure of 8 psig to exist in the riser on the twenty-fifth floor

Assume 12ft of elevation per floor

Answer: 48.68 psig

Explanation:

First  we calculate the elevation of the building

hb = 27 story * 12ft per floor/story

hb =  324 ft

given that the head lost in the vertical riser hL = 40 ft

now the delivery head required in the riser on he 27th floor;

hd = 8 psig *  (2.31 ft / 1 psig)

hd = 18.46 ft

Now calculate the suction head required by balancing the energy per unit weight of water, considering pump as the control volume

hp = (hb + hL + hd) - hs

hs = hb + hL + hd - hp

where hp is the head developed by the pump (270 ft)

hb is the elevation of the 27th floor of the building ( 324 ft)

hL is the head lost in the vertical riser ( 40 ft)

hd is the head required to exist in the riser on the 27th floor (18.46 ft)

so we substitute

hs = 324 ft + 40 ft + 18.46 ft - 270 ft

hs = 112.46

so 112.46ft * (1 psig / 2.31 ft)

= 48.68 psig

What are the dimensions of Shawn's living room? Since Shawn's living room is in the shape of a square, we know that the length of each side is exactly the same. If we let s represent the length of the room, we can write an equation using the area of a square formula (A = s2). A=ss=s2=196 Using the definition of square root: s2 = 196 s = 196 s = 14 But since we are talking about the dimensions of Shawn's living room, the only real solution to this problem is 14 feet (because a solution of -14 feet would not be possible).
