A carousel has a diameter of 6.0-m and completes one rotation every 1.7s. Find the centripetal acceleration of the traveler in m / s2.
Answer:
The centripetal acceleration of the traveler is [tex]40.98\ m/s^2[/tex]
Explanation:
It is given that, A carousel has a diameter of 6.0-m and completes one rotation every 1.7 s.
We need to find the centripetal acceleration of the traveler. It is given by the formula as follows :
[tex]a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}[/tex]
r is radius of carousel
[tex]v=\dfrac{2\pi r}{T}[/tex]
So,
[tex]a=\dfrac{4\pi ^2r}{T^2}[/tex]
Plugging all the values we get :
[tex]a=\dfrac{4\pi ^2\times 3}{(1.7)^2}\\\\a=40.98\ m/s^2[/tex]
So, the centripetal acceleration of the traveler is [tex]40.98\ m/s^2[/tex].

You are helping your friend prepare for the next skateboard exhibition by determining if the planned program will work. Your friend will take a running start and then jump onto a heavy-duty 13-lb stationary skateboard. The skateboard will glide in a straight line along a short, level section of track, then up a curved concrete wall. The goal is to reach a height of at least 10 feet above the starting point before coming back down the slope. Your friend's maximum running speed to safely jump on the skateboard is 24 feet/second. Your friend weighs 155-lbs. What is the height hf that your friend will reach according to his plan?
Answer:
8.3 feet
Explanation:
The kinetic energy of the system on the ground is ...
KE = Σ(1/2)(mv^2) = (1/2)(155)(24^2) +(1/2)(13)(0^2) = 44640 lb·ft²/s²
The potential energy at the highest point is the same:
PE = mgh
44640 = (155 +13)(32)h
h = 44640/5376 = 8.30 . . . . feet
_____
We haven't worried too much about the conversion between pounds mass and pounds force. Whatever factor may be involved will divide out when computing the maximum height. We have used g=32 ft/s².
__
To achieve a 10 ft height, the running speed would need to be 26.34 ft/s, about 10% higher.
An underwater diver sees the sun at an apparent angle of 45.00 from the vertical. How far is the sun above the horizon? [n in water=1.333
Answer:
19.872 degrees
Explanation:
Mathematically;
Using Snell’s law
n1 sin A = n2 sinB
Where ;
n1 = refractive index in air = 1
n2 is refractive index in water = 1.33
A = ?
B = 45
Substituting the values in the equation;
1 sin A = 1.33 sin45
Sin A = 1.33 sin 45
A = arc sin (1.33 sin 45)
A = 70.12
Thus, the actual direction of the Sun with respect to the horizon = 90-A = 19.872 degrees
Some runners train with parachutes that trail behind them to provide a large drag force. These parachutes are designed to have a large drag coefficient. One model expands to a square 1.8 m on a side, with a drag coefficient of 1.4. A runner completes a 200 m run at 5.0 m/s with this chute trailing behind. Part A How much thermal energy is added to the air by the drag force
Answer:
13.9 kJ
Explanation:
Given that
Length of the side, l = 1.8 m
Drag coefficient, C(d) = 1.4
Distance of run, d = 200 m
Velocity of run, v = 5 m/s
Density, ρ = 1.23
Using the Aerodynamics Drag Force formula. We have
F(d) = 1/2.ρ.A.C(d).v²
The Area, A needed is 1.8 * 1.8 = 3.24 m². So that,
F(d) = 1/2 * 1.23 * 3.24 * 1.4 * 5²
F(d) = 139.482/2
F(d) = 69.74
recall that, energy =
W = F * d
W = 69.74 * 200
W= 13948
W = 13.9kJ
Therefore, the thermal energy added to the air by the drag force is 13.9kJ
A person stands on a scale in an elevator. As the elevator starts, the scale has a constant reading of 592 N. As the elevator later stops, the scale reading is 400 N. Assume the magnitude of the acceleration is the same during starting and stopping. (a) Determine the weight of the person. N (b) Determine the person's mass. kg (c) Determine the magnitude of acceleration of the elevator. m/s2
Answer:
a) 496Nb) 50.56kgc) 1.90m/s²Explanation:
According to newton's secomd law, ∑F = ma
∑F is the summation of the force acting on the body
m is the mass of the body
a is the acceleration
Given the normal force when the elevator starts N1 = 592N
Normal force after the elevator stopped N2 = 400N
When the elevator starts, its moves upward, the sum of force ∑F = Normal (N)force on the elevator - weight of the person( Fg)
When moving up;
N1 - Fg = ma
N1 = ma + Fg ...(1)
Stopping motion of the elevator occurs after the elevator has accelerates down. The sum of forces in this case will give;
N2 - Fg = -ma
N2 = -ma+Fg ...(2)
Adding equation 1 and 2 we will have;
N1+N2 = 2Fg
592N + 400N = 2Fg
992N 2Fg
Fg = 992/2
Fg = 496N
The weight of the person is 496N
\b) To get the person mass, we will use the relationship Fg = mg
g = 9.81m/s
496 = 9.81m
mass m = 496/9.81
mass = 50.56kg
c) To get the magnitude of acceleration of the elevator, we will subtract equation 1 from 2 to have;
N1-N2 = 2ma
592-400 = 2(50.56)a
192 = 101.12a
a = 192/101.12
a = 1.90m/s²
When jumping straight down, you can be seriously injured if you land stiff-legged. One way to avoid injury is to bend your knees upon landing to reduce the force of the impact. A 73.0 kg man just before contact with the ground has a speed of 6.46 m/s. In a stiff-legged landing he comes to a halt in 2.07 ms. Calculate the average net force that acts on him during this time
Answer:
Explanation:
The man comes to halt due to reaction force acting on him in opposite direction . If R be the reaction force
impulse by net force = change in momentum
Net force = R - mg , mg is weight of the man .
( R-mg ) x 2. 07 x 10⁻³ = 73 x 6.46 - 0
R - mg = 227.81 x 10³
Average net force = 227.81 x 10³ N .
Two carts undergo an inelastic collision where they stick together. Cart A has an initial velocity v0, and the second cart B is initially at rest. After the collision, it is observed that the ratio of the final kinetic energy system to its initial kinetic energy is KfK0= 1/6. Determine the ratio of the carts' masses, mBmA. (Assume the track is frictionless.)
Answer:
Explanation:
Initial kinetic energy of the system = 1/2 mA v0²
If Vf be the final velocity of both the carts
applying conservation of momentum
final velocity
Vf = mAvo / ( mA +mB)
kinetic energy ( final ) = 1/2 (mA +mB)mA²vo² / ( mA +mB)²
= mA²vo² / 2( mA +mB)
Given 1/2 mA v0² / mA²vo² / 2( mA +mB) = 6
mA v0² x ( mA +mB) / mA²vo² = 6
( mA +mB) / mA = 6
mA + mB = 6 mA
5 mA = mB
mB / mA = 5 .
Archimedes and Heron are playing on a seesaw. Archimedes weighs 75 kg and Heron weighs 150 kg. If Heron is sitting 2 meters from the fulcrum, how many meters does Archimedes need to sit from the fulcrum?
Answer:
4metresExplanation:
Using the principle of moment to solve the problem. The principle states that the sum of clockwise moments is equal to the sum of anticlockwise moment.
Moment = force *perpendicular distance
Moment of Archimedes about the fulcrum = 75 * x ... 1
x is the distance of Archimedes from the fulcrum
Moment of Heron about the fulcrum = 150 * 2 = 300kgm... 2
Equation 1 and 2 according to principle of moment to get x we have;
75x = 300
x = 300/75
x = 4metres
Archimedes need to sit 4m from the fulcrum
A 72.0 kg swimmer jumps into the old swimming hole from a tree limb that is 3.90 m above the water.
A. Use energy conservation to find his speed just as he hits the water if he just holds his nose and drops in.
b) Use energy conservation to find his speed just he hits the water if he bravely jumps straight up (but just beyond the board!) at 2.90 m/s .
c) Use energy conservation to find his speed just he hits the water if he manages to jump downward at 2.90 m/s .
Answer:
Explanation:
The Law of Energy Conservation states that K1 + U1 = K2 + U2
m= 72.0 kg
h= 3.90 m
a)
K1 + U1 = K2 + U2
0 + mgh = 1/2mvf^2 + 0
mass cancels out so gh=1/2vf^2
(9.8 m/s^2)(3.9 m)=(.5)(vf^2)
vf= 8.74 m/s
b)
1/2mv^2 + mgh = 1/2mv^2 + 0
mass cancels again
(.5)(2.9^2 m/s) + (9.8 m/s^2)(3.9 m) = (.5)(vf^2)
vf= 9.21 m/s
c)
This would be the same as the past problem as the velocity gets squared so direction along the axis doesn't matter. Thus, vf= 9.21 m/s

A single loop of wire with an area of 0.0820 m2 is in a uniform magnetic field that has an initial value of 3.80 T, is perpendicular to the plane of the loop, and is decreasing at a constant rate of 0.220 T/s .
Required:
a. What emf is induced in this loop?
b. If the loop has a resistance of 0.600Ω, find the current induced in the loop.
Answer:
a) emf = 0.01804 V
b) I = 0.03 A
Explanation:
a) The emf is calculated by using the following formula:
[tex]|emf|=|\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt}|=|\frac{d(A\cdot B)}{dt}|[/tex] [tex]=A|\frac{dB}{dt}|[/tex]
A: area of the loop = 0.0820m^2
B: magnitude of the magnetic field
dB/dt: change of the magnetic field, in time: 0.220 T/s
Where ФB is the magnetic flux, the surface vector and magnetic vector are perpendicular between them, and the area A is constant.
You replace the values of A and dB/dt in the equation (1):
[tex]|emf|=(0.082m^2)(0.220T/s)=0.01804V[/tex]
b) The current in the loop is:
[tex]I=\frac{emf}{R}[/tex]
R: resistance of the loop = 0.600Ω
[tex]I=\frac{0.01804V}{0.600\Omega}=0.03A=30mA[/tex]
a. The emf induced in this loop is 18.04mV.
b. The current induced in the loop is 30.06mA.
a. We know that,
[tex]flux(\phi)=B*A[/tex]
Where B is magnetic field and A is the area.
[tex]emf=\frac{d\phi}{dt}=A*\frac{dB}{dt}[/tex]
Given that, Area , [tex]A=0.0820m^{2},B=3.80T,\frac{dB}{dt}=0.220T/s[/tex]
Substituting all values in above equation.
[tex]emf=0.0820*0.220=0.01804V=18.04mV[/tex]
b. Resistance, [tex]R=0.600ohm[/tex]
Current induced in the loop is,
[tex]I=\frac{emf}{R}=18.04/0.6=30.06mA[/tex]
Hence, the emf induced in this loop is 18.04mV.
The current induced in the loop is 30.06mA.

Assuming 100% efficient energy conversion, how much water stored behind a 50 centimetre high hydroelectric dam would be required to charge battery
Complete question is;
Assuming 100% efficient energy conversion how much water stored behind a 50 centimeter high hydroelectric dam would be required to charge the battery with power rating, 12 V, 50 Ampere-minutes
Answer:
Amount of water required to charge the battery = 7.35 m³
Explanation:
The formula for Potential energy of the water at that height = mgh
Where;
m = mass of the water
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
H = height of water = 50 cm = 0.5 m
We know that in density, m = ρV
Where;
ρ = density of water = 1000 kg/m³
V = volume of water
So, potential energy is now given as;
Potential energy = ρVgH = 1000 × V × 9.8 × 0.5 = (4900V) J
Now, formula for energy of the battery is given as;
E = qV
We are given;
q = 50 A.min = 50 × 60 = 3,000 C
V = 12 V
Thus;
qV = 3,000 × 12 = 36,000 J
E = 36,000 J
At a 100% conversion rate, the energy of the water totally powers the battery.
Thus;
(4900V) = (36,000)
4900V = 36,000
V = 36,000/4900
V = 7.35 m³
An electric point charge of Q = 22.5 nC is placed at the center of a cube with a side length of a = 16.3 cm. The cube in this question is only a mathematical object, it is not made out of any physical material. What is the electric flux through all six sides of the cube?
Answer:
The electric flux is [tex]\phi = 2.5 *10^{3} \ Nm^2 \cdot C^{-1}[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The magnitude of the electric point charge [tex]q = 22.5 nC = 22.5 *10^{-9} \ C[/tex]
The length of the one side of the cube is [tex]l = 16.3 \ cm = 0.163 \ m[/tex]
The number of sides is [tex]N= 6[/tex]
The electric flux according to Gauss law is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\phi = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o}[/tex]
Where [tex]\epsilon _ o[/tex] is the permitivity of free space with value [tex]\epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12}\ m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot s^4 \cdot A^2[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\phi = \frac{22.5 *10^{-9}}{8.85 *10^{-12}}[/tex]
[tex]\phi = 2.5 *10^{3} \ Nm^2 \cdot C^{-1}[/tex]
The driver of a train moving at 23m/s applies the breaks when it pases an amber signal. The next signal is 1km down the track and the train reaches it 76s later. The acceleration is -0.26s^2. Find its speed at the next signal.
Answer:
3.2 m/s
Explanation:
Given:
Δx = 1000 m
v₀ = 23 m/s
a = -0.26 m/s²
t = 76 s
Find: v
This problem is over-defined. We only need 3 pieces of information, and we're given 4. There are several equations we can use. For example:
v = at + v₀
v = (-0.26 m/s²) (76 s) + (23 m/s)
v = 3.2 m/s
Or:
Δx = ½ (v + v₀) t
(1000 m) = ½ (v + 23 m/s) (76 s)
v = 3.3 m/s
Or:
v² = v₀² + 2aΔx
v² = (23 m/s)² + 2(-0.26 m/s²)(1000 m)
v = 3.0 m/s
Or:
Δx = vt − ½ at²
(1000 m) = v (76 s) − ½ (-0.26 m/s²) (76 s)²
v = 3.3 m/s
As you can see, you get slightly different answers depending on which variables you use. Since 1000 m has 1 significant figure, compared to the other variables which have 2 significant figures, I recommend using the first equation.
A corpse is discovered in a room that has its temperature held steady at 25oC. The CSI ocers ar- rive at 2pm and the temperature of the body is 33oC. at 3pm the body's temperature is 31oC. Assuming Newton's law of cooling and that the temperature of the living person was 37oC, what was the approximate time of death
Answer: Around 0:35 Pm or 12:35 Am
Explanation:
The equation that describes the cooling of objects can be written as:
T(t) = Ta + (Ti - Ta)*e^(k*t)
Where Ta is the ambient temperature, here Ta = 25°C.
Ti is the initial temperature of the body, we have Ti = 37°C.
t is the time.
k is a constant.
So our equation is:
T(t) = 25°C +12°C*e^(k*t)
at 2pm, the temperature was 33°C
at 3pm, the temperature was 31°C.
we want to find the hour where we have our t = 0, suppose this hour is X.
then we can write our times as:
2pm ---> 2 - X
3pm ----> 3 - X
and our equations are:
33°C = 25°C + 12°C*e^(k2 - k*X)
31° = 25°C + 12°C*e^(k3 - k*X)
So we have two equations and two variables, let's solve the system.
first, simplify it a bit, for the first eq:
33 - 25 = 12*e^(k2 - k*X)
8/12 = e^(k2 - k*X)
ln(8/12) = k*2 - k*X
for the second equation we have:
31 - 25 = 12*e^(k3 - k*X)
6/12 = e^(k3 - k*X)
ln(6/12) = k*3 - k*X
So our equations are:
1) ln(2/3) = 2*k - X*k
2) ln(1/2) = 3*k - X*k
First, let's isolate one of the variables in one of the equations. let's isolate k in the first equation.
ln(2/3)/(2-X) = k
now we can replace it in the second equation:
ln(1/2) = 3*ln(2/3)/(2 - X) - X*ln(2/3)/(2-X)
now let's solve it for X, i will take a = ln(1/2) and b = ln(2/3) so it is easier to read.
a = 3*b/(2 - X) - X*b/(2 - X)
a*(2 - X) = 3*b - X*b
2a - aX = 3b - Xb
X(a - b) = 2a - 3b
X = (2*ln(1/2) - 3*ln(2/3))/(ln(1/2) - ln(2/3)) = 0.590
now, knowing that one hour has 60 minutes, then this is:
0.59*60m = 35 minutes
So the hour of death is 0:35 Pm or 12:35 Am

The meter is the only fundamental SI unit that is a vector. The rest are all scalars. Derived quantities might be scalar or vector, but all vector quantities require meters as part of their definition and measurement.
The term "vector quantities" refers to physical quantities whose magnitude and direction are well specified.
Arrows are used to depict vectors. An arrow has a direction and a magnitude (how long it is) (the direction in which it points).

A heavy copper ball of mass 2 kg is dropped from a fiftieth-floor apartment window. Another one with mass 1 kg is dropped immediately after 1 second. Air resistance is negligible. The difference between the speeds of the two balls:__________.
a. increases over time at first, but then stays constant.
b. decreases over time.
c. remains constant over time.
d. increases over time.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Because everything on Earth falls at the same speed, the masses of the balls do not matter. Since the acceleration due to gravity is constant, their speeds will both be increasing at the same rate, and therefore the difference in speeds would remain constant until they hit the ground. Hope this helps!
For the parallel plates mentioned above, the DC power supply is set to 31.5 Volts and the plate on the right is at x = 14 cm. What is the magnitude of the electric field at a point on the x-axis where x = 7.0 cm? Answer with a number in the format ### in Newtons per Coulombs.
Note: The complete question is attached as a file to this solution. The parallel plate mentioned can be seen in this picture attached.
Answer:
E = 225 N/C
Explanation:
Note: At any point on the parallel plates of a capacitor, the electric field is uniform and equal.
Therefore, Electric field at x = 14 cm equals the electric field at x = 7 cm
V(x) = 31.5 Volts
x = 14 cm = 0.14 m
The magnitude of the electric field at any point between the parallel plate of the capacitor is given by the equation:
E = V(x)/d
E(x = 0.14) = 31.5/0.14
E(x=0.14) = 225 N/C
E(x=0.14) = E(x=0.07) = 225 N/C

A pendulum on a planet, where gravitational acceleration is unknown, oscillates with a time period 5 sec. If the mass is increased six times, what is the time period of the pendulum?
Explanation:
We have, a pendulum on a planet, oscillates with a time period 5 sec. The formula used to find the time period is given by :
[tex]T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}}[/tex]
l is length of the pendulum
g is acceleration due to gravity on which it is placed
It is clear that, the time period of pendulum is independent of the mass. Hence, if the mass is increased six times, its time period remains the same.
A roller coaster car is going over the top of a 15-m-radius circular rise. The passenger in the roller coaster has a true weight of 600 N (therefore a mass of 61.2 kg). At the top of the hill, the passengers "feel light," with an apparent weight of only 360 N. How fast is the coaster moving
Answer:
v = 7.67 m/s
Explanation:
The equation for apparent weight in the situation of weightlessness is given as:
Apparent Weight = m(g - a)
where,
Apparent Weight = 360 N
m = mass passenger = 61.2 kg
a = acceleration of roller coaster
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
Therefore,
360 N = (61.2 kg)(9.8 m/s² - a)
9.8 m/s² - a = 360 N/61.2 kg
a = 9.8 m/s² - 5.88 m/s²
a = 3.92 m/s²
Since, this acceleration is due to the change in direction of velocity on a circular path. Therefore, it can b represented by centripetal acceleration and its formula is given as:
a = v²/r
where,
a = centripetal acceleration = 3.92 m/s²
v = speed of roller coaster = ?
r = radius of circular rise = 15 m
Therefore,
3.92 m/s² = v²/15 m
v² = (3.92 m.s²)(15 m)
v = √(58.8 m²/s²)
v = 7.67 m/s
One end of an insulated metal rod is maintained at 100c and the other end is maintained at 0.00 c by an ice–water mixture. The rod has a length of 75.0cm and a cross-sectional area of 1.25cm . The heat conducted by the rod melts a mass of 6.15g of ice in a time of 10.0 min .find the thermal conductivity k of the metal?k=............ W/(m.K)
Answer:
The thermal conductivity of the insulated metal rod is [tex]202.92\,\frac{W}{m\cdot K}[/tex].
Explanation:
This is a situation of one-dimensional thermal conduction of a metal rod in a temperature gradient. The heat transfer rate through the metal rod is calculated by this expression:
[tex]\dot Q = \frac{k_{rod}\cdot A_{c, rod}}{L_{rod}}\cdot \Delta T[/tex]
Where:
[tex]\dot Q[/tex] - Heat transfer due to conduction, measured in watts.
[tex]L_{rod}[/tex] - Length of the metal rod, measured in meters.
[tex]A_{c,rod}[/tex] - Cross section area of the metal rod, measured in meters.
[tex]k_{rod}[/tex] - Thermal conductivity, measured in [tex]\frac{W}{m\cdot K}[/tex].
Let assume that heat conducted to melt some ice was transfered at constant rate, so that definition of power can be translated as:
[tex]\dot Q = \frac{Q}{\Delta t}[/tex]
Where Q is the latent heat required to melt the ice, whose formula is:
[tex]Q = m_{ice}\cdot L_{f}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]m_{ice}[/tex] - Mass of ice, measured in kilograms.
[tex]L_{f}[/tex] - Latent heat of fussion, measured in joules per gram.
The latent heat of fussion of water is equal to [tex]330000\,\frac{J}{g}[/tex]. Hence, the total heat received by the ice is:
[tex]Q = (6.15\,g)\cdot \left(330\,\frac{J}{g} \right)[/tex]
[tex]Q = 2029.5\,J[/tex]
Now, the heat transfer rate is:
[tex]\dot Q = \frac{2029.5\,J}{(10\,min)\cdot \left(60\,\frac{s}{min} \right)}[/tex]
[tex]\dot Q = 3.382\,W[/tex]
Turning to the thermal conduction equation, thermal conductivity is cleared and computed after replacing remaining variables: ([tex]L_{rod} = 0.75\,m[/tex], [tex]A_{c,rod} = 1.25\times 10^{-4}\,m^{2}[/tex], [tex]\Delta T = 100\,K[/tex], [tex]\dot Q = 3.382\,W[/tex])
[tex]\dot Q = \frac{k_{rod}\cdot A_{c, rod}}{L_{rod}}\cdot \Delta T[/tex]
[tex]k_{rod} = \frac{\dot Q \cdot L_{rod}}{A_{c,rod}\cdot \Delta T}[/tex]
[tex]k_{rod} = \frac{(3.382\,W)\cdot (0.75\,m)}{(1.25\times 10^{-4}\,m^{2})\cdot (100\,K)}[/tex]
[tex]k_{rod} = 202.92\,\frac{W}{m\cdot K}[/tex]
The thermal conductivity of the insulated metal rod is [tex]202.92\,\frac{W}{m\cdot K}[/tex].

Complete question is;
When you ride a bicycle, in what direction is the angular velocity of the wheels? A) to your left B) to your right C) forwards D) backwards
While an object rotates, each particle will have a different velocity:
the 'Speed' component will vary with radius while the 'Direction' component will vary with angle.
Now, all of the velocity vectors are aligned in the same plane and as such we can be solve this by choosing a single vector normal to ALL of the possible velocity vectors of the rotating object in that plane.
The convention that will be used to answer this question is known as "Right-hand rule". The angular velocity vector points along the wheel's axle.
For instance, if you Imagine wrapping your right hand around the axle so that your fingers point in the direction of rotation, with your thumb sticking out. You will notice that your thumb points to the left.
Thus;
In conclusion, by right-hand rule, a wheel rotating on a forward - moving bicycle has an angular velocity vector pointing to the rider's left.

As you get ready for bed, you roll up one of your socks into a tight ball and toss it into the laundry basket across the room. Then, you try to toss the other sock without rolling it up.. What effects whether or not your socks land in the basket?
Answer:
The drag (air resistance) it experiences along its flight to the basket, due to the shape and surface area of the socks, the size of the sock (weight), and the speed with which the socks is tossed.
Explanation:
The socks, like every other particle or body travelling through air is met by a resistance that impedes its motion. This resistance is due to the air molecules around, that collide with the body as it travels through them. The resistance offered by this force is proportional to the surface area of the body that collides with the air molecule, so, rolling the socks into a ball reduces the effect of air resistance on the socks, compared to the one tossed without rolling. Air resistance is also largely dependent on the relative motion of the body and the air molecules, the density of the fluid (air), and the size of the body (weight).
Therefore, whether the socks lands in the basket or not is affected by the drag (air resistance) it experiences along its flight to the basket, due to the shape and surface area of the socks, size of the socks (weight), and the speed with which the socks is tossed.
Drag force opposes motion of objects through fluid with its magnitude depending on the velocity of the object in the fluid
The single parameter that effects whether or not the socks lands in the basket is the drag force, [tex]\mathbf{F_D}[/tex] acting on the socks
[tex]F_D = \mathbf{C_D \times A \times \dfrac{\rho \times v_r^2}{2}}[/tex]
The reason that drag force is the parameter that effects the landing point of the socks is as follows:
The parameters that effects whether or not the socks land in the basket or not are;
The distance of the basket away from the thrower = The range, RThe velocity with which the socks are thrown, uThe angle of elevation with which each socks is thrown, θThe amount of drag experienced by each socks, [tex]\mathbf{F_D}[/tex]The parameters, R, u, and θ depends on the thrower, that parameter that effects the whether or not the socks lands in the basket that is independent of the thrower, is the drag, [tex]\mathbf{F_D}[/tex]
Drag is the force opposing (slows) the motion of an object in a fluid.
The drag force, [tex]\mathbf{F_D}[/tex], slowing down motion, is given by the following formula;
[tex]F_D = \mathbf{C_D \times A \times \dfrac{\rho \times v_r^2}{2}}[/tex]
Where;
[tex]v_r[/tex] = The velocity of flow of the fluid, relative to the object
ρ = The density of the fluid
[tex]C_D[/tex] = The drag coefficient
A = The cross sectional area of the fluid
Therefore, the independent parameter that effects whether or not the socks lands in the basket is the drag force on the socks

A politician holds a press conference that is televised live. The sound picked up by the microphone of a TV news network is broadcast via electromagnetic waves and heard by a television viewer. This viewer is seated 2.7 m from his television set. A reporter at the press conference is located 5.5 m from the politician, and the sound of the words travels directly from the celebrity's mouth, through the air, and into the reporter's ears. The reporter hears the words exactly at the same instant that the television viewer hears them. Using a value of 343 m/s for the speed of sound, determine the maximum distance between the television set and the politician. Ignore the small distance between the politician and the microphone. In addition, assume that the only delay between what the microphone picks up and the sound being emitted by the television set is that due to the travel time of the electromagnetic waves used by the network.
Answer:
Explanation:
Time taken by sound waves to cover distance between politician and reporter = time taken by em waves to travel distance between politician and the television viewer.
5.5 / 343 = d / 3 x 10⁸ + 2.7 / 343
d is distance between politician and television set + time taken by sound to travel distance between television and its viewer.
.0160349 = d / 3 x 10⁸ + .0078717
d / 3 x 10⁸ = .0081632
d = 2448960 m
= 2448.96 km
= 2449 km .
