Two students want to determine if the acceleration of an object in free fall depends on the mass of the object. They conduct the following experiment to investigate this question: They drop a balled up sheet of paper (0.005 kg), a notebook (0.4 kg), and their physics book (5 kg) from a height of one meter. If air resistance is ignored, which of the following best predicts which object will experience the greatest acceleration?

Answers

Answer:

All the objects experience the same acceleration

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, we have the gravitational force F given by the relation;

[tex]F=G \times \dfrac{M_1 \times m_{2}}{R^{2}}[/tex]

Where;

G = The universal gravitational constant

M₁ = The mass of the Earth

m₂ = The mass of the object in the Earths gravitational field

R = The radius of the Earth

Therefore, we have;

[tex]F= m_2 \times a = G \times \dfrac{M_1 \times m_{2}}{R^{2}}[/tex]

Which gives;

[tex]a = G \times \dfrac{M_1 }{R^{2}} \ which \ is \ a \ constant = 9.80665 \ m/s^2, \ known \ as \ g, \ which \ is \ \\the \ (acceleration \ due \ to \ gravity)\\[/tex]Therefore, based on the above calculation, all three object will have the same acceleration due to gravity, g, when air resistance is ignored.

5.3 two 30 kg children in a 20 kg cart are stationary at the top of a hill. They start rolling down the 80 m tall hill and they are travelling at 30 km h-1 when they reach the bottom. how muvh work was done on the cart by friction during it's travel down the hill

Answers

Answer:

60008.4 J

Explanation:

The mass of each kid = 30 kg

mass of the cart = 20 kg

The speed of the cart down the hill = 30 km/hr = 30 x 1000/3600 = 8.33 m/s

The height of the hill = 80 m

The potential energy of the boys at the top of the hill = mgh

where

m is the total mass of the kids and the cart = (30 x 2) + 20 = 80 kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

h is their height above the ground = 80 m (on the top of the hill)

substituting, we have

potential energy PE = 80 x 9.81 x 80 = 62784 J

At an instance at the bottom of the hill

their kinetic energy = [tex]\frac{1}{2} mv^2[/tex]

where

v is their velocity = 8.33 m/s

m is their total mass = 80 kg

substituting, we have

kinetic energy KE = [tex]\frac{1}{2}*80*8.33^2[/tex] = 2775.6 J

Total work done on the cart is equal to the energy lost by the cart when it reached the bottom of the hill

work done by friction = PE - KE = 62784 - 2775.6 = 60008.4 J

A pulley system having 5 pulleys is used to
raise a 450 N load. Find the Mechanical
advantage and hence the effort if the
efficiency is 75%.​

Answers

Explanation:

Hey there!!

Here, Given is,

Efficiency = 75%

VR = no. of pulleys = 5

Now,

[tex]effeciency = (\frac{ma}{vr} ) \times 100\%[/tex]

[tex]75\% = \frac{ma}{5} \times 100\% [/tex]

100% ma = 75%×5

[tex]ma = \frac{75\% \times5}{100\%} [/tex]

[tex]ma = \frac{375\%}{100\%} [/tex]

Therefore, MA is 3.75.

Hope it helps...

Answer:

MA=3.75

Explanation:Given that, E=75%, VR=no. of pulley=5

NOW,

E=(MA/VR)*100%

75%=(MA/5)*100%

MA=(75%*5)*100%

MA=375%/100%

A hot–air balloon is moving at a speed of 10.0 meters/second in the +x–direction. The balloonist throws a brass ball in the +x–direction at a velocity of +4 meters/second with respect to himself. If the ball lands after 30 seconds, about how far does it land horizontally from the point at which it was released?
A. 120 meters
B. 125 meters
C. 300 meters
D. 420 meters

Answers

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

The balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

Velocity of air balloon along +X axis =10 m/s

velocity of ball=4 m/s along + X axis

the velocity of balloon gets added to the velocity of ball. So the resultant velocity of the balloon=10+4 = 14 m/s

time taken= 30 s

The distance traveled is given by d= v t

d= 14 (30)

d= 420 m

Thus the balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

A toy car is moving across a table with a velocity of 7.0 m/s and drives off the end. The table is 1.8 m tall. How long will the car be in the air before it crashes on the floor? a 0.6 seconds b 0.8 seconds c 0.4 seconds d 0.2 seconds

Answers

Answer:

Option D - 0.2 s

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial velocity; u = 7 m/s

Height of table; h = 1.8m

Now,since we want to find the time the car spent in the air, we will simply use one of Newton's equation of motion.

Thus;

h = ut + ½gt²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

1.8 = 7t + ½(9.8)t²

4.9t² + 7t - 1.8 = 0

Using quadratic formula to find the roots of the equation gives us;

t = -1.65 or 0.22

We can't have negative t value, thus we will pick the positive one.

So, t = 0.22 s

This is approximately 0.2 s

A liquid thermometer can be used to test for fevers. When body temperature increases, the liquid inside the thermometer expands and rises to show a higher temperature reading, the explanation that describes the change in the thermal energy,

The thermometer tip is heated by conduction with the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat by conduction with the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to speed up, expand, and rise.

What is thermal energy?

It can be defined as the form of the energy in which heat is transferred from one body to another body due to their molecular movements, thermal energy is also known as heat energy.

Conduction with the subject's body heats the thermometer's tip. The liquid inside the thermometer is subsequently heated by conduction between the particles of the thermometer tip. The warmer particles then accelerate, expand, and ascend as a result of the heat convecting through the liquid's particles.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

Calculate the workdone by a bricklayer who lifted cement block of mass 10kg from the floor to the height of 3cm g=9.8m​

Answers

Answer:

The work done is 2.94 Nm.

Explanation:

First, you have to find the force of a brick layer using the formula, Force = mass×gravity :

[tex]f = m \times g[/tex]

[tex]let \: m = 10,g = 9.8[/tex]

[tex]f = 10 \times 9.8[/tex]

[tex]f = 98N[/tex]

Given that the force of a brick layer is 98N. Next, you have to apply work done formula, Work done = force×distance :

[tex]w.d = f \times d[/tex]

[tex]let \: f = 98,d = 0.03m[/tex]

[tex]w.d = 98 \times 0.03[/tex]

[tex]w.d = 2.94Nm[/tex]

You are driving at 25 m/s with your cruise control on when you see a fallen tree in the road. It takes you 0.30 s to put on the brakes, your car decelerates at a rate of 5.0 m/s2, and the tree is 75 m ahead. Will you hit the tree? Choose the correct answer and reason below.

Answers

Explanation:

Given data

velocity v= 25m/s

The time it takes to put on brake t= 0.3s

the distance covered when the  brake was put on is

v=s/t

s= v*t

s= 25*0.3s

s= 7.5m

hence the distance covered is 7.5m

Also the rate of decrease in aceleration is 5m/s^2

we can also calculate the distance covered at this rate

v^2=u^2+2as

25^2= 0+2*5*s

625=10s

divide both sides by 10

s=625/10

s= 62.5m

The total  distance covered between putting on the brakes and decelareation is  7.5+62.5= 70m

Given that the tree is 75m ahead, the car would not hit the tree

A doctor ran 100 meters in 20 seconds a duck slowly waddled 20 feet in 2 minutes some dude flew 100 miles in 2 hours Dave rolled down a hill he rolled 300 meters 30 seconds

Answers

Answer:

1. 50 m/s 2. 10 ft/min 3. 50 miles/hour 4. 10 m/s

Explanation:

We are required to calculate the speed in each instant

Since speed = distance/time,

1. For the doctor, speed = distance/time = 100 m/20 s = 50 m/s

2. For the duck, speed = distance/time = 20 feet/ 2 min = 10 ft/min

3. For the dude who flew, speed = distance/time = 100 miles/ 2 hours = 50 miles/hour = 50 mi/h

4. For Dave who rolled down the hill, speed  = distance/time = 300 metres/ 30 s = 10 metres/ second = 10 m/s

An airplane flies 700 miles with a tail wind in 2.0 hrs. If it takes 2.5 hrs to cover the same distance against the headwind, then what is the speed of the plane in still air? A).290mph B).315mph C).240mph D).330mph E).250mph

Answers

Answer:

B).315mph

Explanation:

Let the speed of the plane = p

Let the speed of the wind = w

Set up the system equation as;

                                     Relative V:               Time:                          Distance:

in wind direction:          p + w                         2                                  700

against wind:                 p - w                         2.5                                700

2(p + w) = 700

2.5(p - w) = 700

2p + 2w = 700

2.5p - 2.5w = 700

2.5  x:     5p + 5w = 1750

2  x:        5p - 5w = 1400

10p = 3150

p = 315 mph

Therefore, he speed of the plane in still air is 315 mph

There is a species of bamboo that can grow 36 inches per day. If a plant grew at this rate and was measured at 40 inches initially, how long (in days) would it take for the plant to grow to a height of 200 inches tall?

Answers

Answer:

It will take the plant [tex]4\frac{4}{9}[/tex] days or 4.44 days to grow to a height of 200 inches tall.

Explanation:

From the question, the rate at which the species of the bamboo tree grows is 36 inches per day.

To determine how long it would take a plant 40 inches tall initially to grow at this rate (that is, 36 inches per day) to a height of 200 inches.

This means we will calculate the number of days it will take the plant to grow additional 160 inches ( 200 inches - 40 inches) at this rate.

Now,

If the plant grows 36 inches in 1 day

then it will grow 160 inches in x days

x = (160 inches × 1 day) / 36 inches

x = 160 / 36

x = [tex]4\frac{4}{9}[/tex] days or 4.44 days

Hence, it will take the plant [tex]4\frac{4}{9}[/tex] days or 4.44 days to grow to a height of 200 inches tall.

A baseball is thrown horizontally at 46 m/s. The ball slows down at a rate of 5 m/s2. How long
is the ball in the air before coming to rest?

Answers

Answer:

9.2 s

Explanation:

Using one of the equation of motion v = u + at where;

v is the final velocity = 0m/s (the ball comes to rest after throw)

u is the initial velocity = 46m/s

a is the acceleration = -5m/s² (the body decelerates)

t is the time taken by the ball in air

substituting the given parameters into the formula to get t, we will have;

0 = 46 +(-5)t

0 = 46 - 5t

subtract 46 from both sides

0-46 = 46-5t-46

-46 = -5t

Divide both sides by -5

-46/-5 = -5t/-5

t = 46/5

t = 9.2seconds

Hence it will take the ball 9.2seconds in the air before coming to rest.
