Answer:
The speed of projection is 34 m/s.
Explanation:
Height of building, h = 51 m
horizontal distance, d = 74 m
time, t = 8 s
Let the angle is A and the speed is u.
d = u cos A x t
74 = u cos A x 8
u cos A = 9.25 .... (1)
Use second equation of motion
[tex]h = u sin A t - 0.5 gt^2\\\\-51 = u sinA \times 8 - 0.5\times 9.8\times8\times 8\\\\u sin A = 32.8 .... (2)[/tex]
Squaring and adding both the equations
[tex]u^2 = 9.25^2 + 32.8^2 \\\\u = 34 m/s[/tex]
The spring in the figure has a spring constant of 1400 N/m . It is compressed 17.0 cm , then launches a 200 g block. The horizontal surface is frictionless, but the block's coefficient of kinetic friction on the incline is 0.210.
What distance d does the block sail through the air?
Use the work-energy theorem to find the velocity of the block when it's released by the spring. The work done by the spring on the block as it's restored to equilibrium is
W = 1/2 kx ²
where k is the spring constant and x is the compression of the spring. So
W = 1/2 (1400 N/m) (0.170 m)² = 20.23 J
This is equal to the block's change in kinetic energy ∆K,
W = ∆K
and since it starts from rest, the initial K is zero, leaving us with
W = 1/2 mv ²
where m is the mass of the block and v is its speed, so that
20.23 J = 1/2 (0.200 kg) v ²
==> v ≈ 14.2 m/s
The block slides at this speed across the frictionless surface until it hits the incline which introduces friction.
First, you need to find the length of the incline. It forms a 45° angle, and the underlying 45°-45°-90° triangle has a hypotenuse of length √2 (2.0 m) ≈ 2.83 m.
Next, you need to find the total work done on the block as it slides up the incline. Use Newton's second law to examine the forces acting on the block during this phase:
• the net force acting on the block in the direction perpendicular to the incline is
∑ F = n - mg cos(45°) = 0
where n = mg cos(45°) ≈ 1.39 N is the magnitude of the normal force and mg cos(45°) ≈ 1.39 N is the perpendicular component of the block's weight;
• the net force acting on the block parallel to the surface is
∑ F = -f - mg sin(45°) = ma
where f = µn = 0.210n ≈ 0.291 N is the magnitude of kinetic friction, mg sin(45°) ≈ 1.39 N is the parallel component of the weight, and a is the acceleration of the block.
Only the parallel forces do work on the block, and this work is negative because friction and weight oppose the block's sliding up the incline. The total work done on the block is then
W = (-0.291 N - 1.39 N) (2.83 m) ≈ -4.74 J
Use the work-energy theorem again to find the block's new speed v at the top of the incline:
W = ∆K
==> -4.74 J = 1/2 (0.200 kg) v ² - 1/2 (0.200 kg) (14.2 m/s)²
==> v ≈ 12.4 m/s
And now this becomes a projectile problem. The block travels a horizontal distance x after being launched at an angle of 45° with initial speed 12.4 m/s after time t according to
x = (12.4 m/s) cos(45°) t
Its height y from the 2.0 m-high surface at time t is given by
y = (12.4 m/s) sin(45°) t - 1/2 gt ²
The block lands on the surface when y = 0, which occurs after t ≈ 1.79 s, at which point the block has covered a distance d ≈ 15.7 m.
The block sail through the air at the distance of "15.8 m"
Given:
Spring constant,
1400 N/mMass,
200 gBlock's coefficient,
0.210By using Work energy theorem, we get
→ [tex]W_{spring}+W_g+W_f = KE_f-KE_i[/tex]
By substituting the values, we get
→ [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times 1400\times (0.17)^2- (0.2\times 9.8\times 2)-(0.21\times 0.2\times \frac{9.8}{\sqrt{2} }\times \sqrt{2}\times 2 )= \frac{1}{2}\times 0.2\times V_f^2[/tex]
here,
[tex]V_f = 12.44 \ m/s[/tex]
→ [tex]d = \frac{V_f^2 Sin 2 \Theta}{g}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{(12.44)^2 Sin 90^{\circ}}{9.8}[/tex]
[tex]= 15.8 \ m[/tex]
Thus the answer above is right.

What is the change in internal energy if 70 J of heat is added to a system and
the system does 30 J of work on the surroundings. Uze al-Q-W.
O A. 40 J
O B. -40.3
O C. 100.
D. -1003
Answer:
A. 40 J
Explanation:
Given;
heat added to the system, Q = 70 J
work done by the system, W = 30 J
The change in the internal energy of the system is calculated using the first law of thermodynamic as shown below;
ΔU = Q - W
ΔU = 70 J - 30 J
ΔU = 40 J
Therefore, the change in the internal energy of the system is 40J
2. When you increase your speed from 35 mph to 70 mph, the force of impact you experience will be increased: A. 2 times B. 4 times C. 5 times D. 7 times
When you increase your speed from 35 mph to 70 mph, the force of impact you experience will be increased 4 times.
Hence, the correct option is B.
The force of impact in a collision is directly proportional to the square of the velocity. When the speed is doubled (increased from 35 mph to 70 mph), the force of impact will increase by a factor of four ([tex]2^2[/tex]). This is a fundamental concept in physics known as the kinetic energy formula, which is given by:
Kinetic Energy = (1/2) * mass * [tex]velocity^2[/tex]
Since kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of velocity, doubling the speed results in four times the kinetic energy and, consequently, four times the force of impact.
Therefore, When you increase your speed from 35 mph to 70 mph, the force of impact you experience will be increased 4 times.
Hence, the correct option is B.

Suppose 3 mol of neon (an ideal monatomic gas) at STP are compressed slowly and isothermally to 0.19 the original volume. The gas is then allowed to expand quickly and adiabatically back to its original volume.
Required:
a. Find the highest temperature attained by the gas.
b. Find the lowest temperature attained by the gas.
c. Find the highest pressure attained by the gas.
d. Find the lowest pressure attained by the gas.
Answer:
a. 273 K b. 90.1 K c. 5.26 atm d. 0.33 atm
Explanation:
For isothermal expansion PV = constant
So, P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ where P₁ = initial pressure of gas = 1 atm (standard pressure), V₁ = initial volume of gas, P₂ = final pressure of gas and V₂ = final volume of gas,
So, P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂
Since V₂/V₁ = 0.19,
P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂
P₂ = 1 atm (1/0.19)
P₂ = 5.26 atm
For an adiabatic expansion, PVⁿ = constant where n = ratio of molar heat capacities = 5/3 for monoatomic gas
So, P₂V₂ⁿ = P₃V₃ⁿ where P₂ = initial pressure of gas = 5.26 atm, V₂ = initial volume of gas, P₃ = final pressure of gas and V₃ = final volume of gas,
So, P₂V₂ⁿ = P₃V₃ⁿ
P₃ = P₂V₂ⁿ/V₃ⁿ
P₃ = P₂(V₂/V₃)ⁿ
Since V₃ = V₁ ,V₂/V₃ = V₂/V₁ = 0.19
1/0.19,
P₃ = P₂(V₂/V₃)ⁿ
P₃ = 5.26 atm (0.19)⁽⁵/³⁾
P₃ = 5.26 atm × 0.0628
P₃ = 0.33 atm
Using the ideal gas equation
P₃V₃/T₃ = P₄V₄/T₄ where P₃ = pressure after adiabatic expansion = 0.33 atm , V₃ = volume after adiabatic expansion, T₃ = temperature after adiabatic expansion P₄ = initial pressure of gas = P₁ = 1 atm , V₄ = initial volume of gas = V₁ and T₄ = initial temperature of gas = T₁ = 273 K (standard temperature)
P₃V₃/T₃ = P₄V₄/T₄
T₃ = P₃V₃T₄/P₄V₄
T₃ = (P₃/P₄)(V₃/V₄)T₂
Since V₃ = V₄ = V₁ and P₄ = P₁
V₃/V₄ = 1 and P₃/P₄ = P₃/P₁
T₃ = (P₃/P₁)(V₃/V₄)T₂
T₃ = (0.33 atm/1 atm)(1)273 K
T₃ = 90.1 K
So,
a. The highest temperature attained by the gas is T₁ = 273 K
b. The lowest temperature attained by the gas = T₃ = 90.1 K
c. The highest pressure attained by the gas is P₂ = 5.26 atm
d. The lowest pressure attained by the gas is P₃ = 0.33 atm

we substitute
sin 90 = 1
d = m lang
let's calculate
d = 9 λ
d = 9 380 10⁻⁰
d = 3.42 10⁻⁶
d2 = 9 760 10⁻⁹
d2 = 6.84 10₋⁶

You take your pulse and observe 80 heartbeats in a minute. What is the period of your heartbeat? What is the frequency of your heartbeat?
Answer:
120 beats per minute.
Explanation:
If I take your pulse and observe 80 heartbeats in a minute. Then the period of your heartbeat is 0.8 s and frequency is 1.3Hz.
What is Heartbeat ?A pulse is the term used in medicine to describe the tactile arterial palpation of the cardiac cycle (heartbeat) by skilled fingertips. Any location where an artery can be compressed close to the surface of the body, such as the carotid artery in the neck, the radial artery in the wrist, the femoral artery in the groyne, the popliteal artery behind the knee, the posterior tibial artery near the ankle joint, and on the foot, can be used to palpate the pulse (dorsalis pedis artery). Heart rate may be determined by monitoring pulse, or the number of arterial pulses per minute. Auscultation, which is the process of counting the heartbeats while listening to the heart using a stethoscope, is another way to determine the heart rate. Typically, three fingers are used to gauge the radial pulse.
Given,
heart beat = 80 beats/min = 1.3 beats/s
Frequency is nothing but how much beats is heart having in one second and that is 1.3 beats/s. Hence frequency of heart is 1.3Hz.
The Period is reciprocal of frequency,

Consider a point on a bicycle wheel as the wheel turns about a fixed axis, neither speeding up nor slowing down. Compare the linear and angular accelerations of the point.
a. Both are zero.
b. Only the angular acceleration is zero.
c. Only the linear acceleration is zero.
d. Neither is zero
Explain your choice
Answer:
c. Only the linear acceleration is zero.
Explanation:
The linear acceleration is defined as the rate of change of linear velocity. Since the bicycle is moving in the same direction, with the same speed, without speeding up or slowing down. Therefore, there will be no change in linear velocity and as a result, linear acceleration will be zero.
The angular acceleration is the rate of change of angular velocity. Since the angular velocity is changing its direction constantly. Therefore, it has a certain component of acceleration at all times called centripetal acceleration.
Therefore, the correct option is:
c. Only the linear acceleration is zero.

If you wanted to know how much the temperature of a particular piece of material would rise when a known amount of heat was added to it, which of the following quantities would be most helpful to know?
a. coefficient of linear expansion
b. specific heat
c. initial temperature
d. thermal conductivity
e. density
Answer:
Option (b) is correct.
Explanation:
The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of substance of mass 1 kg by 1 degree C, is called specific heat of the substance.
The formula of the specific heat is
H = m c (T' - T)
where, m is the mass, c is the specific heat and T' - T is the change in temperature.
So, to know the rise in temperature, by adding the known amount of heat, the specific heat is required.
So, option (b) is correct.
