An Object, Start from rest w Confront Aiceleration 8m/s2 along a
Straight line. Find
A, the speed At the end Of 5 second
B, The average Speed for the 5second interval
Answer:
A) v = 40 m / s, B) v_average = 20 m / s
Explanation:
For this exercise we will use the kinematics relations
A) the final velocity for t = 5 s and since the body starts from rest its initial velocity is zero
v = vo + a t
v = 0 + 8 5
v = 40 m / s
B) the average velocity can be found with the relation
v_average = vf + vo / 2
v-average = 0+ 40/2
v_average = 20 m / s
Model the Earth's atmosphere as 79% N2, 19% O2, and 2% Argon, all of which are in thermal equilibrium at 280 K. At what height is the density of O half its value at sea level
Answer:
[tex]9.495 \times 10^3\ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the given information:
Using the equation of Barometric formula as related to density, we have:
[tex]\rho (z) = \rho (0) e^{(-\dfrac{z}{H})} \ \ \ \ --- (1)[/tex]
Here;
[tex]p(z) =[/tex] the gas density at altitude z
[tex]\rho(0) =[/tex] the gas density at sea level
H = height of the scale
[tex]H = \dfrac{RT}{M_ag } \ \ \ --- (2)[/tex]
Also;
R represent the gas constant
temperature (T) a= 280 K
g = gravity
[tex]M_a =[/tex] molaar mass of gas; here, the gas is Oxygen:
∴
[tex]M_a =[/tex] 15.99 g/mol
= 15.99 × 10⁻³ kg/mol
[tex]H = \dfrac{8.3144 \times 280}{15.99 \times 10^{-3} \times 9.8 }[/tex]
[tex]H =14856.43 \ m[/tex]
Now we need to figure out how far above sea level the density of oxygen drops to half of what it is at sea level.
This implies that we have to calculate z;
i.e. [tex]\rho(z) =\dfrac{\rho(0) }{(2)}[/tex]
By using the value of H and [tex]\rho(z)[/tex] from (1), we have:
[tex]\dfrac{\rho(0) }{(2)} = \rho (0) e^{(-\dfrac{z}{14856.43})}[/tex]
∴
[tex]\dfrac{1}{2} = e^{(-\dfrac{z}{14856.43})} \\ \\ e^{(-\dfrac{z}{14856.43})} =\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
By rearrangement and taking the logarithm of the above equation; we have:
[tex]- z = 14856.43 \times \mathtt{In}\dfrac{1}{2} \\ \\ -z = 14856.43 \times (-0.6391) \\ \\ z = 9495 \ m \\ \\ z = 9.495 \times 10^3\ m[/tex]
As a result, the oxygen density at [tex]9.495 \times 10^3\ m[/tex] is half of what it is at sea level.
A 2:2 kg toy train is con ned to roll along a straight, frictionless track parallel to the x-axis. The train starts at the origin moving at a speed of 1:6m=s in the +x direction, and continues until it reaches a position 7:5m down the track from where it started. During its journey, it experiences a force pointing in the same direction as the vector 0:6 +0:8 , with magnitude initially 2:8N and decreasing linearly with its x-position to 0N when the train has finished its journey.
Required:
a. Calculate the work done by this force over the entire journey of the train.
b. Find the speed of the train at the end of its journey.
Answer:
a) 10.51 J
b) 3.48 m/s
Explanation:
Given data :
mass of train ( M ) = 2.2 kg
Given initial velocity ( u ) = 1.6 m/s
a) calculating work done by the force over the journey of the train
F = mx + b ------ ( 1 )
m = slope = ( Δ f / Δ x ) = 2.8 / -7.5 = - 0.373 N/m
x = distance travelled on the x axis by the train = 7.5 m
F = force experienced by the train = 2.8 N
x = 0
∴ b = 2.8
hence equation 1 can be written as
F = ( -0.373) x + 2.8 ----- ( 2 )
hence to determine the work done by the force
W = [tex]\int\limits^7_0 { ( -0.373) x + 2.8 )} \, dx[/tex] Note: the limits are actually 7.5 and 0
∴ W ( work done ) = -10.49 + 21 = 10.51 J
b) calculate the speed of the train at the end of its journey
we will apply the work energy theorem
W = 1/2 m*v^2 - 1/2 m*u^2
∴ V^2 = 2 / M ( W + 1/2 M*u^2 ) ( input values into equation )
V^2 = 12.11
hence V = 3.48 m/s

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes a time of 2.00 s for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.600 m . The fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced a horizontal distance of 6.40 m apart.
Required:
a. How fast are the waves traveling?
b. What is the amplitude of each wave?
c. If the total vertical distance traveled by the boat were 0.30 m but the other data remained the same, how would the answers to parts (a) and (b) be affected?
Answer:
a. Speed = 1.6 m/s
b. Amplitude = 0.3 m
c. Speed = 1.6 m/s
Amplitude = 0.15 m
Explanation:
a.
The frequency of the wave must be equal to the reciprocal of the time taken by the boat to move from the highest point to the highest point again. This time will be twice the value of the time taken to travel from the highest point to the lowest point:
frequency = [tex]\frac{1}{2(2\ s)}[/tex] = 0.25 Hz
The wavelength of the wave is the distance between consecutive crests of wave. Therefore,
Wavelength = 6.4 m
Now, the speed of the wave is given as:
Speed = (Frequency)(Wavelength)
Speed = (0.25 Hz)(6.4 m)
Speed = 1.6 m/s
b.
Amplitude is the distance between the mean position of the wave and the extreme position. Hence, it will be half the distance between the highest and lowest point:
Amplitude = (0.5)(0.6 m)
Amplitude = 0.3 m
c.
frequency = [tex]\frac{1}{2(2\ s)}[/tex] = 0.25 Hz
Speed = (Frequency)(Wavelength)
Speed = (0.25 Hz)(6.4 m)
Speed = 1.6 m/s
Amplitude = (0.5)(0.3 m)
Amplitude = 0.15 m

Objects A and B, of mass M and 2M respectively, are each pushed a distance d straight up an inclined plane by a force F parallel to the plane. The coefficient of kinetic friction between each mass and the plane has the same value μ.k At the highest point is:______
a. KEA > KEB
b. KEA = KEB
c. KEA < KEB
d. The work done by F on A is greater than the work done by F on B.
e. The work done by F on A is less than the work done by F on B.
Answer:
The correct answer is option (A) that is KEA > KEB .
Explanation:
Let us calculate -
If the object is straighten up and inclined plane , the work done is
[tex]W=F_d- F_f_r_id-F_gh[/tex]
[tex]W=F_d-\mu_kmgdcos\theta-mgdsin\theta[/tex]
The change in kinetic energy is ,
[tex]\Delta K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}m\nu_0^2[/tex]
At the top of the inclined plane , the velocity is zero
So,
[tex]\Delta K=\frac{1}{2} m(0)^2-\frac{1}{2}m\nu_0^2[/tex]
[tex]\Delta KE=-\frac{1}{2}m\nu_0^2[/tex]
From the work energy theorem , we have [tex]W=-\Delta K[/tex] in case of friction , so
[tex]\frac{1}{2}m\nu_0^2=Fd-\mu_kmgdcos\theta-mgdsin\theta[/tex]
[tex]KE=Fd-\mu_kmgdcos\theta-mgdsin\theta[/tex]
For object A-
[tex]KE_A=Fd-\mu_kmgdcos\theta-mgdsin\theta[/tex]
For object B
[tex]KE_B= Fd -2\mu_kMgdcos\theta-2Mgdsin\theta[/tex]
[tex]KE_B= Fd -2(\mu_kMgdcos\theta-Mgdsin\theta)[/tex]
Thus , larger mass is going to mean less total work and a lower kinetic energy .
From the above results , we get
[tex]KE_A >KE_B[/tex]
Therefore , option A is correct .

A centroid is an object's geometric center. For an object of uniform composition, its centroid is also its center of mass. Often the centroid of a complex composite body is found by, first, cutting the body into regular shaped segments, and then by calculating the weighted average of the segments' centroids.
An object is made from a uniform piece of sheet metal. The object has dimensions of α = 1.50 ft, where α is the diameter the semi-circle, b= 3.51 ft, and c = 2.20 ft. A hole with diameter d = 0.500 ft is centered at ( 1.21, 0.750 ).
Find x", y", the coordinates of the body's centroid.
Answer:
x" = 1.4857 ft
y" = 0.668 ft
Explanation:
Given the data in the question and as illustrated in the second image below;
from the image;
BC² = DC² - BD²
BC² = 2.2² - 1.5² = 4.84 - 2.25 = 2.59
BC = √2.59 = 1.61 ft
AB = 3.51 ft - 0.75 ft - 1.61 ft = 1.15 ft
so;
A₁ = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 1.51 ft × 1.61 ft = 1.2075 ft²
x₁ = 0.75 + 1.15 + [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex](1.61 ft) = 2.44 ft
y₁ = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex](1.5 ft) = 0.5 ft
A₂ = 1.15 ft × 1.5 ft = 1.725 ft²
x₂ = 0.75 ft + ( 1.15/2 )ft = 1.325 ft
y₂ = ( 1.5/2 ) ft = 0.75 ft
A₃ = [tex]\frac{\pi }{2}[/tex](0.75 ft)² = 0.88 ft²
x₃ = 0.75 - ([tex]\frac{4 }{3\pi }[/tex](0.75 ft)) = 0.43 ft
y₃ = 0.75 ft
diameter d = 0.5 ft and centered at ( 1.21, 0.750 )
A₄ = [tex]\frac{\pi }{4}[/tex]( d )² =
x₄ = 1.21 ft
y₄ = 0.75 ft
Thus;
x" = [tex]\frac{A_1 x_1 + A_2 x_2 + A_3 x_3 - A_4x_4 }{A_1+A_2+A_3-A_4}[/tex]
so we substitute
x" = [tex]\frac{(1.2075X2.44) + (1.725 X 1.325) + (0.88X0.43) - (0.196 X 1.21 )}{ ( 1.2075 + 1.725 + 0.88 - 0.196 )}[/tex]
x" = [tex]\frac{ (2.9463 + 2.285625 + 0.3784 - 0.23716)}{ 3.6165 }[/tex]
x" = 5.373165 / 3.6165
x" = 1.4857 ft
y" = [tex]\frac{A_1 y_1 + A_2 y_2 + A_3 y_3 - A_4y_4 }{A_1+A_2+A_3-A_4}[/tex]
so we substitute
y" = [tex]\frac{(1.2075X0.5) + (1.725 X 0.75) + (0.88X0.75) - (0.196 X 0.75 )}{ ( 1.2075 + 1.725 + 0.88 - 0.196 )}[/tex]
y" = [tex]\frac{ (0.60375 + 1.29375 + 0.66 - 0.14112)}{ 3.6165 }[/tex]
y" = 2.41638 / 3.6165
y" = 0.668 ft
Therefore,
x" = 1.4857 ft
y" = 0.668 ft

A person, with his ear to the ground, sees a huge stone strike the concrete pavement. A moment later two sounds are heard from the impact: one travels in the air and the other in the concrete, and they are 6.4 s apart. Part A How far away did the impact occur? (Use vair=343m/s , vconcrete=3000m/s )
Answer:
The impact occured at a distance of 2478.585 meters from the person.
Explanation:
(After some research on web, we conclude that problem is not incomplete) The element "Part A" may lead to the false idea that question is incomplete. Correct form is presented below:
A person, with his ear to the ground, sees a huge stone strike the concrete pavement. A moment later two sounds are heard from the impact: one travels in the air and the other in the concrete, and they are 6.4 seconds apart. How far away did the impact occur? (Sound speed in the air: 343 meters per second, sound speed in concrete: 3000 meters per second)
Sound is a manifestation of mechanical waves, which needs a medium to propagate themselves. Depending on the material, sound will take more or less time to travel a given distance. From statement, we know this time difference between air and concrete ([tex]\Delta t[/tex]), in seconds:
[tex]\Delta t = t_{A}-t_{C}[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]t_{C}[/tex] - Time spent by the sound in concrete, in seconds.
[tex]t_{A}[/tex] - Time spent by the sound in the air, in seconds.
By suposing that sound travels the same distance and at constant speed in both materials, we have the following expression:
[tex]\Delta t = \frac{x}{v_{A}}-\frac{x}{v_{C}}[/tex]
[tex]\Delta t = x\cdot \left(\frac{1}{v_{A}}-\frac{1}{v_{C}} \right)[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{\Delta t}{\frac{1}{v_{A}}-\frac{1}{v_{C}} }[/tex] (2)
Where:
[tex]v_{C}[/tex] - Speed of the sound in concrete, in meters per second.
[tex]v_{A}[/tex] - Speed of the sound in the air, in meters per second.
[tex]x[/tex] - Distance traveled by the sound, in meters.
If we know that [tex]\Delta t = 6.4\,s[/tex], [tex]v_{C} = 3000\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]v_{A} = 343\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], then the distance travelled by the sound is:
[tex]x = \frac{\Delta t}{\frac{1}{v_{A}}-\frac{1}{v_{C}} }[/tex]
[tex]x = 2478.585\,m[/tex]
The impact occured at a distance of 2478.585 meters from the person.
A community plans to build a facility to convert solar radiation to electrical power. The community requires 2.20 MW of power, and the system to be installed has an efficiency of 30.0% (that is, 30.0% of the solar energy incident on the surface is converted to useful energy that can power the community). Assuming sunlight has a constant intensity of 1 020 W/m2, what must be the effective area of a perfectly absorbing surface used in such an installation
Answer:
The answer is "[tex]\bold{7.18 \times 10^3 \ m^2}[/tex]".
Explanation:
The efficiency system:
[tex]\eta =\frac{P_{req}}{P} \times 10\\\\P =\frac{P_{req}}{\eta} \times 10\\\\[/tex]
[tex]=(\frac{2.20 \times 10^6 \ W}{30})\times 100\\\\=(\frac{220 \times 10^6 \ W}{30})\\\\=(\frac{22 \times 10^6 \ W}{3})\\\\=7.33 \times 10^6 \ W[/tex]
Using formula:
[tex]A=\frac{P}{I}[/tex]
Effective area:
[tex]A= \frac{7.33 \times 10^6 \ W}{1020\ \frac{W}{m^2}}\\\\[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{7.33 \times 10^6 }{1020}\ m^2 \\\\ =0.0071862 \times 10^6 \ m^2 \\\\=7.1862 \times 10^3 \ m^2 \\\\[/tex]
A circular cylinder has a diameter of 3.0 cm and a mass of 25 g. It floats in water with its long axis perpendicular to the water's surface. It is pushed down into the water by a small distance and released; it then bobs up and down. Part A What is the oscillation frequency
Answer:
f = 5.3 Hz
Explanation:
To solve this problem, let's find the equation that describes the process, using Newton's second law
∑ F = ma
where the acceleration is
a = [tex]\frac{d^2 y}{dt^2 }[/tex]
B- W = m \frac{d^2 y}{dt^2 }
To solve this problem we create a change in the reference system, we place the zero at the equilibrium point
B = W
In this frame of reference, the variable y' when it is oscillating is positive and negative, therefore Newton's equation remains
B’= m [tex]\frac{d^2 y'}{dt^2 }[/tex]
the thrust is given by the Archimedes relation
B = ρ_liquid g V_liquid
the volume is
V = π r² y'
we substitute
- ρ_liquid g π r² y’ = m \frac{d^2 y'}{dt^2 }
[tex]\frac{d^2 y'}{dt^2} + \rho_liquid \ g \ \pi r^2/m ) y' \ =0[/tex]
this differential equation has a solution of type
y = A cos (wt + Ф)
where
w² = ρ_liquid g π r² /m
angular velocity and frequency are related
w = 2π f
we substitute
4π² f² = ρ_liquid g π r² / m
f = [tex]\frac{1}{2\pi } \ \sqrt{ \frac{ \rho_{liquid} \ \pi r^2 \ g}{m } }[/tex]
calculate
f = [tex]\frac{1}{2 \pi } \sqrt{ \frac{ 1000 \ \pi \ 0.03^2 \ 9.8 }{0.025} }[/tex]
f = 5.3 Hz
Lucy moves down the hall at 3.5 m/s. When he sees Luke coming, he slows down. After 4.0 s, he is moving at 2.1. m/s. What is his acceleration?
Answer:
Acceleration, a = 0.35 m/s²
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Initial velocity, u = 3.5 m/s²
Final velocity, v = 2.1 m/s²
Time, t = 4 secs
To find the acceleration, we would use the first equation of motion;
V = u - at (the sign is negative because Lucy is slowing down).
Substituting into the formula, we have;
2.1 = 3.5 - a(4)
2.1 = 3.5 - 4a
4a = 3.5 - 2.1
4a = 1.4
a = 1.4/4
a = 0.35 m/s²

What is a Planet?An enormous, spherical celestial object known as a planet is neither a star nor its remains. The nebular hypothesis, which states how an interstellar cloud falls out of a nebula to produce a young protostar encircled by a protoplanetary disk, is now the best explanation for planet formation.
By gradually accumulating material under the influence of gravity, or accretion, planets develop in this disk.
The rocky planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, as well as the giant planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, make up the Solar System's minimum number of eight planets. These planets all revolve around axes that are inclined relative to their respective polar axes.

You may assume there is negligible processing delay on the satellite, and that c = 3x108 m/sec.
Answer:
35,000 km = 35,000,000 m = 3.5 E107 m
t = S / v = 3.5 * 10E7 / 3.0 E10E8 = .117 sec
