Answers

The conservation of momentum, Newton's second law and kinematics allows to find the result for the initial speed of the car is:

The speed of the car is 40 m/s at the East direction.

Given parameters

Mass of the truck M = 1200 kg. Truck speed v₀₁ = 15 m / s towards the South. Mass of the car m = 750 kg. Travel east The two vehicles unite. The braking distance d = 25m  at 50º SE The friction coefficient μ = 0.40

To find

The initial speed of the car.

The momentum is defined by the product of the mass and the velocity of the body, so it is a vector quantity. In the case of an isolated system the momentum is conserved.

In the attachment we see a diagram of the vehicle crash, let's write the moment for each axis.

y-axis

Initial instant. Before the shock.

          [tex]p_{oy}[/tex]  = M v₀₁

Final moment. After the crash

          [tex]p_{fy}[/tex] = (M + m) [tex]v_{fy}[/tex]

The system is formed by the two vehicles for which during the crash it is isolated and the momentum is conserved.

          [tex]p_{oy} = p_{fy} \\\\M v_{o1} = (M+m) v_{fy} \\v_{fy} = \frac{M}{M+m} \ v_{o1}[/tex]          

           

Calculate us

           [tex]v_{fy} = \frac{1200}{1200+750} \ 15[/tex]  

           vfx = 9.23 m / s

x-axis

Initial instant. Before the crash.

           p₀ₓ = m v₀₂

Final moment. After the crash.

           [tex]p_{fx}[/tex] = ​​(M + m) [tex]v_{fx}[/tex]  

The momentum is preserved.

          [tex]p_{ox}= p_{fx} \\m v_{o2) = (M+m) \ v_{fx}[/tex]  

Let's find the velocity just after the collision, let's use Newton's second law,

y-axis

        N-W = 0

        N = W = (M + m) g

x-axis

       fr = (M + m) a

The friction force is the macroscopic manifestation of the interactions between the two bodies.

       fr = μ N

We substitute.

       μ  g = a

     

Now we can use kinematics.

        v² = v₀² - 2a d

When the vehicles stop their speed is zero.

        v₀² = 2 a x

        v₀ = [tex]\sqrt{2\ \mu \ g \ d}[/tex]

Let's calculate.

       v₀ = [tex]\sqrt{2 \ 0.40 \ 9.8 25 }[/tex]  

       v₀ = 14 m / s

This is the speed of the two vehicles just after the collision, that is, let's use trigonometry to find their components.

          cos 25 = [tex]\frac{v_{ox}}{v_o}[/tex]  

          v₀ₓ = v₀ cos 25

          v₀ₓ = 14 cos 25

          v₀ₓ = 12.69 m / s

We substitute in the expression of the conservation of the momentum in the x-axis.

           m v₀₂ = (M + m) [tex]v_{fx}[/tex]  

           [tex]v_{o2} = \frac{M+m}{m} v_{fx}[/tex]  

           

Let's calculate.

           [tex]v_{o2} = \frac{1200+750}{750} \ 12.69[/tex]  

           vfy = 32.99 m / s = 40 m / s

In conclusion using the conservation of momentum, Newton's second law and kinematics we can find the result for the initial speed of the car is:

The speed of the car is 40 m/s at the East direction.

Two towers of height 40 m and 30 m respectively support a transmission line conductor at water crossing. The horizontal distance between the towers is 300 m. If the tension in the conductor is 1590 kg, find the clearance of the conductor at a point mid-way between the supports. Weight of conductor is 0·8 kg/m. Bases of the towers can be considered to be at the water level.

Answers

The sag in the tensioned cable depends on the weight of the cable and

the applied tension.

The clearance midway between the support is approximately 29.34 meters

Reasons:

The given parameters are;

Height of the towers are; h₁ = 40 m and h₂ = 30 m

Horizontal distance between the towers, l = 300 m

The tension in the conductor, T = 1,590 kg

Weight of the conductor, w = 0.8 kg/m

Required:

The clearance space of the conductor mid-way between the support

Solution:

The distance, x₁, to the lowest point on the conductor, from the tower, h₁, is given by the formula;

[tex]\displaystyle x_1 = \mathbf{ \frac{l}{2} -\frac{T \cdot h}{w \cdot l}}[/tex]

Where;

h = h₂ - h₁ = 40 m - 30 m = 10 m

Which gives;

[tex]\displaystyle x_1 = \frac{300}{2} -\frac{1590 \times 10}{0.8 \times 300} = \mathbf{83.75}[/tex]

The sag at the lowest point is give by the formula;

[tex]\displaystyle d_1 = \mathbf{ \frac{W \cdot x_1^2}{2 \cdot T}}[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle d_1 = \frac{0.8 \times 83.75^2}{2 \times 1590} = \frac{4489}{2544} \approx 1.765[/tex]

The lowest point sag, s₁ = 30 m - 1.765 m = 28.235 m

The distance of the midpoint from the lowest point, x, is therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle x = \frac{l}{2} - x_1 = \frac{300}{2} - 83.75 = \mathbf{ 66.25}[/tex]

Which gives;

[tex]\displaystyle d_x = \frac{0.8 \times 66.25^2}{2 \times 1590} = \frac{53}{48} \approx 1.104[/tex]

The clearance midway between the support ≈ 28.235 + 1.104 ≈ 29.34

The clearance midway between the support ≈ 29.34 m

A catamaran with a mass of 5.44×10^3 kg is moving at 12 knots. How much work is required to increase the speed to 16 knots? (One knot = 0.51 m/s.)


show all steps

Answers

The work that is required to increase the speed to 16 knots is 14,176.47 Joules

If a catamaran with a mass of 5.44×10^3 kg is moving at 12 knots, hence;

5.44×10^3 kg = 12 knots

For an increased speed to 16knots, we will have:

x = 16knots

Divide both expressions

[tex]\frac{5.44 \times 10^3}{x} = \frac{12}{16}\\12x = 16 \times 5.44 \times 10^3\\x = 7.23\times 10^3kg\\[/tex]

To get the required work done, we will divide the mass by the speed of one knot to have:

[tex]w=\frac{7230}{0.51}\\w= 14,176.47Joules[/tex]

Hence the work that is required to increase the speed to 16 knots is 14,176.47 Joules

The first resonant position below the open end of the resonance tube is; one-quarter of the wavelength

In the event of the first resonant position in a resonance tube, there will be a maximum air displacement which is only one antinode right at the open end where the motion is constrained.

However, there will be no displacement at the closed end which means another one node right at the closed end where air is halted.

when you hold a spherical concave mirror with a 48.2-cm radius of curvature in front of your face, you see an image of your face that is 61.8 cm in front of the mirror. what is the distance between the mirror and your face?

Answers

The distance between the mirror and your face is 39.5 cm

Using the mirror formula 2/r = 1/u + 1/v where r = radius of curvature = - 48.2 cm, u = distance between mirror and your face = object distance and v = distance between image and your face = - 61.8 cm. The distances are negative since the image is in front of the mirror and distances to the left of the mirror are negative.

So, making u subject of the formula, we have

2/r = 1/u + 1/v

1/u = 2/r - 1/v

1/u = (2v - r)/rv

u = rv/(2v - r)

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, wse have

u = -48.2 cm × -61.8 cm/(2 × -61.8 cm - (-48.2 cm))

u = 2978.76 cm²/(-123.6 cm + 48.2 cm)

u = 2978.76 cm²/-75.4 cm

u = -39.51 cm

u ≅ -39.5 cm (The distance is negative since it is in front of the mirror)

So, the distance between the mirror and your face is 39.5 cm

volume of air, measured at atmospheric pressure, would have to be admitted into the space to cause the column of the mercury
to drop to 59 cm?

Answers

The ideal gas equation and the pressure in barometer allows us to find the amount of air that we must introduce into the barometer for the change in height of the mercury column is:

The  variation  of the volume is: ΔV = 7.67 cm³

Pressure is defined by the relationship between force and area.

       P = F / A

The ideal gas equation establishes a relationship between pressure, volume, and temperature of an ideal gas.

          PV = nR T

Where P is pressure, V is volume, and T is temperature.

Let's write this equation for two points assuming that the temperature has not changed.

          P₀ V₀ = P₁ V₁

          V₁ = [tex]\frac{P_o}{P_1} \ V_o[/tex]                 (1)

The subscript "o" is used for the start point and the subscript "1" for the end point.

The pressure in a barometer is:

         P = ρ g y

They indicate the initial height of the barometer y₀=75 cm, the distance from empty space y'₀ = 9 cm and the final height of the barometer y₁ = 59 cm.

 

The volume of the cylinder is

         V = π r² y

Let's calculate the initial volume.

         V₀ = π 1 9

         V₀ = 28.27 cm³

We substitute in equation 1.

         V₁ = [tex]\frac{\rho \ g \ y_o}{\rho \ g \ y_1} \ V_o[/tex]  

         V₁ = [tex]\frac{y_o}{y_1} \ V_o[/tex]  

Let's calculate.

        V₁ = [tex]\frac{75}{59} \ 27.27[/tex]  

        V₁ = 35.94 cm³

The volume to be incremented is

         ΔV = V₁ - V₀

         ΔV = 35.94 - 28.27

         ΔV = 7.67 cm³

Using the ideal gas equation and the pressure in barometer we can find the amount of air that we must introduce into the barometer for the change in height of the mercury column is:

What is work done?

Work done is defined as the product of force applied and the distance over which the force is applied on the object. Work is done on an object when a force is applied to an object and the object is moved through a particular distance.

The time rate of doing work is called as power, which is designated by the symbol P. It is measured in the units of watts, where one watt is equal to one joule energy applied per second time.

Work done on an object is equal to the force (F) multiplied by the distance d in the direction of the force. Where, time interval is Δt.

P = W/Δt = F × d/Δt = m × g × h/Δt = 100 × 9.8 × 30 / 40
