Answer:
m₁ = 70 lb
Explanation:
Here we will use the law of conservation of momentum:
m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ + m₃u₃ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ + m₃v₃
where,
m₁ = mass of first suitcase = ?
m₂ = mass of second suitcase = 30 lb
m₃ = mass of baggage carrier = 50 lb
u₁ = initial speed of first suitcase = 7.2 ft/s
u₂ = initial speed of second suitcase = 7.2 ft/s
u₃ = initial speed of baggage carrier = 0 ft/s
v₁ = Final speed of first suitcase = 4.8 ft/s
v₂ = Final speed of second suitcase = 4.8 ft/s
v₃ = Final speed of baggage carrier = 4.8 ft/s
because after collision all three will have same speed
Therefore,
(m₁)(7.2 ft/s) + (30 lb)(7.2 ft/s) + (50 lb)(0 ft/s) = (m₁)(4.8 ft/s) + (30 lb)(4.8 ft/s) + (50 lb)(4.8 ft/s)
(m₁)(7.2 ft/s) + (216 lb ft/s) + (0 lb ft/s) = (m₁)(4.8 ft/s) + (144 lb ft/s) + (240 lb ft/s)
(m₁)(7.2 ft/s) - (m₁)(4.8 ft/s) = 168 lb ft/s
m₁ = (168 lb ft/s)/(2.4 ft/s)
m₁ = 70 lb
A shell is fired with a horizontal velocity in the positive x direction from the top of an 80 m high cliff. The shell strikes the ground 1330 m from the base of the cliff. What is the speed of the shell as it hits the ground
Answer:
V = 331.59m/s
Explanation:
First we need to calculate the time taken for the shell fire to hit the ground using the equation of motion.
S = ut + 1/2at²
Given height of the cliff S = 80m
initial velocity u = 0m/s²
a = g = 9.81m/s²
Substitute
80 = 0+1/2(9.81)t²
80 = 4.905t²
t² = 80/4.905
t² = 16.31
t = √16.31
t = 4.04s
Next is to get the vertical velocity
Vy = u + gt
Vy = 0+(9.81)(4.04)
Vy = 39.6324
Also calculate the horizontal velocity
Vx = 1330/4.04
Vx = 329.21m/s
Find the magnitude of the velocity to calculate speed of the shell as it hits the ground.
V² = Vx²+Vy²
V² = 329.21²+39.63²
V² = 329.21²+39.63²
V² = 108,379.2241+1,570.5369
V² = 109,949.761
V = √ 109,949.761
V = 331.59m/s
Hence the speed of the shell as it hits the ground is 331.59m/s

A toy rocket is launched vertically from ground level (y = 0 m), at time t = 0.0 s. The rocket engine provides constant upward acceleration during the burn phase. At the instant of engine burnout, the rocket has risen to 98 m and acquired a velocity of 30m/s. The rocket continues to rise in unpowered flight, reaches maximum height, and falls back to the ground. The upward acceleration of the rocket during the burn phase is closest to...
Given
initial velocity of rocket u = 0m/s
final velocity of rocket = 30m/s
Height reached by the rocket = 98m
Required
upward acceleration of the rocket
Using the equation of motion below to get the acceleration a:
[tex]v^2 = u^2+2as\\30^2 = 0^2 + 2(a)(98)\\900 = 196a\\a = \frac{900}{196}\\a = 4.59m/s^2[/tex]
Hence upward acceleration of the rocket during the burn phase is closest to 5m/s²
Note that the velocity used in calculation was assumed.
Calculate the force a 75 kg high jumper must exert in order to produce an acceleration that is 3.2 times the acceleration due to gravity.
Answer:
Explanation
According to Newton's second law of motion,
F = ma
m is the mass
a is the acceleration
If the acceleration is 3.2 times the acceleration due to gravity, then a = 3.2g
The formula becomes;
F = m(3.2g)
F = 3.2mg
m= 75kg
g = 9.81m/s²
F = 3.2(75)(9.81)
F = 2,354.4N
Hence the force exerted by the jumper is 2,354.4N
Astronomers have proposed the existence of a ninth planet in the distant solar system. Its semi-major axis is suggested to be approximately 600 AU. If this prediction is correct, what is its orbital period in years
Answer:
T = 1.4696 10⁴ years
Explanation:
For this exercise we must use Kepler's laws, specifically the third law which is the application of the universal law of gravitation to Newton's second law
F = ma
G m M / r² = m a_c = m v² / r
G M / r = v²
the speed of the circular orbit is
v = 2π r / T
we substitute
G M / r = 4π² r² / T²
T² = (4π² / G M) r³
Kepler proved that this expression is the same if the radius is changed by the semi-major axis of an ellipse
T² = (4π² /GM) a³
the constant is worth
(4π² / GM) = 2.97 10⁻¹⁹ s² / m³
let's reduce the distance to SI units
AU is the distance from the Earth to the Sun
a = 600 AU = 600 AU (1.496 10¹¹ m / 1 AU)
a = 8.976 10¹³ m
T² = 2.97 10⁻¹⁹ (8.976 10¹³)³
T² = 21.4786 10²²
T = 4.63 10¹¹ s
Let's reduce to years
T = 4.63 10¹¹s (1 h / 3600s) (1 day / 24 h) (1 year / 365 days)
T = 1.4696 10⁴ years

Find the speed of sound v in the air if both speakers emit a tone of frequency 700 Hz .
Complete Question
The compete question is shown on the first uploaded question
Answer:
The speed is [tex] v = 350 \ m/s [/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The distance of separation is d = 4.00 m
The distance of the listener to the center between the speakers is I = 5.00 m
The change in the distance of the speaker is by [tex]k = 60 cm = 0.6 \ m[/tex]
The frequency of both speakers is [tex]f = 700 \ Hz[/tex]
Generally the distance of the listener to the first speaker is mathematically represented as
[tex]L_1 = \sqrt{l^2 + [\frac{d}{2} ]^2}[/tex]
[tex]L_1 = \sqrt{5^2 + [\frac{4}{2} ]^2}[/tex]
[tex]L_1 = 5.39 \ m [/tex]
Generally the distance of the listener to second speaker at its new position is
[tex]L_2 = \sqrt{l^2 + [\frac{d}{2} ]^2 + k}[/tex]
[tex]L_2 = \sqrt{5^2 + [\frac{4}{2} ]^2 + 0.6}[/tex]
[tex]L_2 = 5.64 \ m [/tex]
Generally the path difference between the speakers is mathematically represented as
[tex]pD = L_2 - L_1 = \frac{n * \lambda}{2}[/tex]
Here [tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength which is mathematically represented as
[tex]\lambda = \frac{v}{f}[/tex]
=> [tex] L_2 - L_1 = \frac{n * \frac{v}{f}}{2}[/tex]
=> [tex] L_2 - L_1 = \frac{n * v}{2f}[/tex]
=> [tex] L_2 - L_1 = \frac{n * v}{2f}[/tex]
Here n is the order of the maxima with value of n = 1 this because we are considering two adjacent waves
=> [tex] 5.64 - 5.39 = \frac{1 * v}{2*700}[/tex]
=> [tex] v = 350 \ m/s [/tex]
The speed of sound in air is 350 m/s
Since the distance between both speakers is 4 m, and the listener is standing 5 m away from halfway between them, the distance L from each loudspeaker to the listener, since the arrangement forms a right-angled triangle, using Pythagoras' theorem,
L = √[(5 m)² + (4/2 m)²]
= √[25 m² + (2 m)²]
= √[25 m² + 4 m²]
= √29 m² = 5.39 m.
Now, when one speaker is moved 60 cm = 0.6 m away from its original position, its distance from the listener is now
L' = √[(5 m)² + (4/2 + 0.6 m)²]
= √[25 m² + (2 m + 0.6 m)²]
= √[25 m² + (2.6 m)²]
= √[25 m² + 6.76 m²]
= √31.76 m²
= 5.64 m.
Now, the path difference when we first have destructive interference is
ΔL = L' - L
= 5.64 - 5.39
= 0.25
Since we have destructive interference for the first time when the speaker is moved, the path difference, ΔL = (n + 1/2)λ where λ = wavelength = v/f where v = speed of sound in air and f = frequency = 700 Hz.
Now, since we have destructive interference for the first time, n = 0.
So, ΔL = (n + 1/2)λ
ΔL = (0 + 1/2)v/f
ΔL = v/2f
Making v subject of the formula, we have
v = 2fΔL
Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
v = 2fΔL
v = 2 × 700 Hz × 0.25 m
v = 350 m/s
So, the speed of sound in air is 350 m/s

On top of a cliff of height h, a spring is compressed 5m and launches a projectile perfectly horizontally with a speed of 75 m s . It hits the ground with speed 90 m s . How high above the ground was the cliff? (Hint: use energy conservation to make the problem easier!)
Answer:
The height of the cliff is 121.276 m
Explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the projectile, v₁ = 75 m/s
final velocity of the projectile, v₂ = 90 m/s
spring compression = 5 m
Apply the law of conservation of energy;
mgh₀ + ¹/₂mv₁² = mgh₂ + ¹/₂mv₂²
gh₀ + ¹/₂v₁² = gh₂ + ¹/₂v²
gh₁ - gh₂ = ¹/₂v₂² - ¹/₂v₁²
g(h₀ - h₂) = ¹/₂ (v₂² - v₁²)
h₀ - h₂ = ¹/₂g (v₂² - v₁²)
h₀ = h(cliff) + 5m
when the projectile hits the ground, Final height, h₂ = 0
[tex]h_o - 0 = \frac{1}{2g}(v_2^2-v_1^2)\\\\h_{cliff} + 5= \frac{1}{2g}(v_2^2-v_1^2)\\\\h_{cliff} = \frac{1}{2g}(v_2^2-v_1^2) - 5\\\\h_{cliff} = \frac{1}{2*9.8}(90^2-75^2) - 5\\\\h_{cliff} = 121.276 \ m[/tex]
Therefore, the height of the cliff is 121.276 m

From the question we are told that
The distance is [tex]D = 35 \ light-years = 35 * 9.46 *10^{15} = 3.311 *10^{17} \ m [/tex]
Generally the time it would take for the message to get the the other civilization is mathematically represented as

Here c is the speed of light with the value [tex]c = 3.08 *10^{8} \ m/s[/tex]
=> [tex]t = \frac{3.311 *10^{17} }{3.08 *10^{8}}[/tex]
=> [tex]t = 1.075 *10^9 \ s[/tex]
converting to years
[tex]t = 1.075 *10^9 * 3.17 *10^{-8} [/tex]
[tex]t = 1.075 *10^9 * 3.17 *10^{-8} [/tex]
[tex]t = 34 \ years [/tex]
Now the total time taken is mathematically represented as

When driving at slower speeds you need to use what type of steering
wheel movements compared to when driving at faster speeds? *
Answer:
slower speeds = larger and faster steering wheel movements
faster speeds = small and slow steering wheel movements
Explanation:
When driving at slower speeds you need to use larger and faster steering wheel movements. This is because at slow speeds the car does not have enough momentum to make certain maneuvers with small steering wheel movements in a given amount of time, therefore making large and faster steering wheel movements gives the car enough time with the momentum it has to make the desired maneuver. At faster speeds only small and slow steering wheel movements are needed and while cause the car to quickly change to the desired direction due to the increased momentum of the car.

An LED lamp powered by a USB-based portable battery has an effective resistance of 500 Ohm. If the battery is rated for 10,000 mAh, then how long can the lamp be powered and what is the total power consumed by the lamp? The operating voltage of a USB powered device is 5V. Assume that the battery is also rated at 5V.
Answer:
Time = 1000 h
Power = 0.05 W = 50 mW
Explanation:
First we will find the current consumed by the lamp. For this purpose we can use the Ohm's Law. The equation of Ohm's Law is written as follows:
V = IR
I = V/R
where,
I = Current = ?
V = Voltage = 5 V
R = Resistance = 500 Ω
Therefore,
I = 5 V/500 Ω
I = 0.01 A = 10 mA
Now the time duration of the operation f lamp can be found by:
Time = Rating/Current
Time = 10000 mAh/ 10 mA
Time = 1000 h
The power consumption of lamp is given as follows:
Power = IV
Power = (0.01 A)(5 V)
Power = 0.05 W = 50 mW
A 1000-turn solenoid is 50 cm long and has a radius of 2.0 cm. It carries a current of 18.0 A. What is the magnetic field inside the solenoid near its center
Answer:
The value is [tex]B = 0.0452 \ T [/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The number of turns is N = 1000
The length is L = 50 cm = 0.50 m
The radius is r = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m
The current is I = 18.0 A
Generally the magnetic field is mathematically represented as
[tex]B = \mu_o * \frac{N }{L} * I[/tex]
Here [tex]\mu_o[/tex] is the permeability of free space with value
[tex]\mu_o = 4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2[/tex]
So
[tex]B = 4\pi * 10^{-7} * \frac{1000}{0.50} * 18.0[/tex]
=> [tex]B = 0.0452 \ T [/tex]

Answer:
5694000 min
Explanation:
Let's suppose the average American watches 4 hours of TV every day. First, we will calculate how many minutes they watch per day. We will use the conversion factor 1 h = 60 min.
(4 h/day) × (60 min/1 h) = 240 min/day
They watch 240 minutes of TV per day. Now, let's calculate how many minutes they watch per year. We will use the conversion factor 1 year = 365 day.
240 min/day × (365 day/year) = 87600 min/year
They watch 87600 min/year. Finally, let's calculate how many minutes they spend watching TV in 65 years.

The first resistance is [tex]R_i = 26 \Omega[/tex]
The second resistance is [tex]R_E = 200 \Omega[/tex]
Generally the equivalent resistance is
[tex]R_e = R_1 + R_E[/tex]

All biomes don’t have the same level of biodiversity. What seems to be the optimal conditions for high biodiversity?
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
The optimal conditions for high biodiversity seem to be a warm temperature and wet climates.
The tropical areas of the world have the highest biodiversity and are characterized by an average annual temperature of above 18 [tex]^oC[/tex] and annual precipitation of 262 cm. The areas are referred to as the world's biodiversity hotspots.
Consequently, it follows logically that the optimal conditions for high biodiversity would be a warm temperature of above 18 [tex]^oC[/tex] and wet environment with annual precipitation of not less than 262 cm.
The variation in temperature and precipitation across biomes can thus be said to be responsible for the variation in the level of biodiversity in them.
In a pickup game of dorm shuffleboard, students crazed by final exams use a broom to propel a calculus book along the dorm hallway. If the 4.7 kg book is pushed from rest through a distance of 0.85 m by the horizontal 42 N force from the broom and then has a speed of 1.0 m/s, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the book and floor
Answer:
μ_k = 0.851
Explanation:
We are given;
Mass of book; m_book = 4.7 kg
Horizontal force; F_horiz = 42 N
Distance; d = 0.85 m
Speed; v = 1 m/s
First of all let's find the acceleration using Newton's equation of motion;
v² = u² + 2ad
u is initial velocity and it's 0 m/s in this case.
Thus;
1² = (2 × 0.85)a
1 = 1.7a
a = 1/1.7
a = 0.5882 m/s²
Now, resolving forces along the vertical direction, we have;
W - N = 0
Thus,W = N
Where W is weight = mg and N is normal force
Thus; N = mg = 4.7 × 9.81 = 46.107 N
Now, resolving forces along the horizontal direction, we have;
F_horiz - ((μ_k)N) = ma
Where μ_k is coefficient of kinetic friction.
Thus;
42 - 46.107(μ_k) = 4.7 × 0.5882
42 - 46.107(μ_k) = 2.76454
μ_k = (42 - 2.76454)/46.107
μ_k = 0.851

Consider a 50-turn circular loop with a radius of 1.55 cm in a 0.35-T magnetic field. This coil is going to be used in a galvanometer that reads 45 μA for a full-scale deflection. Such devices use spiral springs which obey an angular form of Hooke's law, where the restoring torque is:
τs = -κ θ.
Here κ is the torque constant and θ is the angular displacement, in radians, of the spiral spring from equilibrium, where the magnetic field and the normal to the loop are parallel.
Required:
a. Calculate the maximum torque, in newton meters, on the loop when the full-scale current flows in it.
b. What is the torque constant of the spring, in newton meters per radian, that must be used in this device? Assume the full scale deflection is 60° from the spring's equilibrium position
Answer:
a
[tex]\tau_{m} = 5.95 *10^{-7} \ N \cdot m[/tex]
b
[tex]\beta = 2.83 *10^{-7} \ N \cdot m / rad [/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The number of turns is N = 50
The radius is r = 1.55 cm = 0.0155 m
The magnetic field is B = 0.35 T
The induced current is [tex]I = 45 \mu A = 45 *10^{-6} \ A[/tex]
Generally the area of loop is mathematically represented as
[tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex]
=> [tex]A =3.142 * 0.0155^2[/tex]
=> [tex]A =0.000755\ m^2[/tex]
Generally the maximum torque is mathematically represented as
[tex]\tau_{m} = N * B * I * A[/tex]
=> [tex]\tau_{m} = 50 * 0.35 * 45 *10^{-6} * 0.000755[/tex]
=> [tex]\tau_{m} = 5.95 *10^{-7} \ N \cdot m[/tex]
Generally the torque 60° from the spring's equilibrium position is mathematically represented as
[tex]\tau = N * B * I * A * sin (60)[/tex]
=> [tex]\tau = 50 * 0.35 * 45 *10^{-6} * 0.000755 * sin (60)[/tex]
=> [tex]\tau = 2.973 *10^{-7} \ N \cdot m [/tex]
Generally the toque constant of the spring is mathematically represented as
[tex]\beta = \frac{\tau}{60}[/tex]
=> [tex]\beta = \frac{\tau}{\frac{\pi}{3}}[/tex]
=> [tex]\beta = \frac{2.973 *10^{-7}}{\frac{\pi}{3}}[/tex]
=> [tex]\beta = 2.83 *10^{-7} \ N \cdot m / rad [/tex]
