Answers

Answer 1

The correct statement about the wind is:

Cool air rushing in to fill an area of low pressure

What is the wind?

Wind is the movement of air currents in relation to the Earth's surface, which is caused by pressure differences and air movement.

Characteristics of the wind

It is a meteorological phenomenon originated in the movements of rotation and translation of the Earth.

When the rising air cools and loses the moisture it was carrying, due to condensation and rain, the result is dry and cool air.

Therefore, we can conclude that the wind is the current of air that occurs in the atmosphere due to natural causes, from high pressure areas to low pressure areas.

A bullet of mass 4.00 g is fired horizontally into a wooden block of mass 1.30 kg resting on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface is 0.170. The bullet remains embedded in the block, which is observed to slide a distance 0.240 m along the surface before stopping. Part A What was the initial speed of the bullet

Answers

Answer:

[tex]291.67\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

Explanation:

[tex]m_1[/tex] = Mass of bullet = 4 g

[tex]m_2[/tex] = Mass of block = 1.3 kg

[tex]\mu[/tex] = Coefficient of friction = 0.17

[tex]s[/tex] = Displacement of block = 0.24 m

[tex]v_1[/tex] = Velocity of bullet

[tex]v[/tex] = Velocity of combined mass

[tex]g[/tex] = Acceleration due to gravity = [tex]9.81\ \text{m/s}^2[/tex]

The energy balance of the system is given by

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}(m_1+m_2)v^2=\mu(m_1+m_2)gs\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\mu gs}[/tex]

As the momentum is conserved in the system we have

[tex]m_1v_1=(m_1+m_2)v\\\Rightarrow m_1v_1=(m_1+m_2)\sqrt{2\mu gs}\\\Rightarrow v_1=\dfrac{(m_1+m_2)\sqrt{2\mu gs}}{m_1}\\\Rightarrow v_1=\dfrac{(4\times 10^{-3}+1.3)\times \sqrt{2\times 0.17\times 9.81\times 0.24}}{4\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow v_1=291.67\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

The initial speed of the bullet is [tex]291.67\ \text{m/s}[/tex].

Neglect friction and the size of the box

Answers

Answer:

W = 1.875 J

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the relationship between work and kinetic energy

          W = ΔK

The kinetic energy of rotational motion is

         K₀ = ½ I w²

we can assume that the box is small, so it can be treated as a point object, with moment of inertia

          I = m rₐ²

angular and linear velocity are related

          v = w r

          w = v / r

we substitute in the equation, for point A

         K₀ = ½ (m rₐ²) (v / rₐ)²

         K₀ = ½ m v²

For the final point B, as the system is isolated the angular momentum is conserved

initial        L₀ = Io wo

final          L_f = I_f w_f

                L₀ = L_f

                 I₀ w₀ = I_f w_f

               

                (m rₐ²) w₀ = (m  [tex]r_{b} ^2[/tex]) w_f

                 w_f = (rₐ/r_b)² w₀

with this value we find the final kinetic energy

         K_f = ½ I_f w_f²

         K_f = ½ (m [tex]r_{b}^2[/tex]) ( (rₐ / r_b)²  w₀) ²

         K_f = ½ m [tex]\frac{r_a^4}{r_b^2} \ w_o^2[/tex]

 

we substitute in the realcion of work

          W = K_f - K₀

          W = ½ m  [tex]( \( \frac {r_a^2 }{r_b} )^2[/tex] w₀² - ½ m v²

          W = ½ m  [tex]\frac{r_a^4}{r_b^2} ( \frac{v}{r_a} ) ^2[/tex] - ½ m v²

           W = ½ m [tex]\frac{r_a^2}{r_b^2} \ v^2[/tex] - ½ m v2

          W = ½ m v² (([tex]( \ (\frac{r_a}{r_b})^2 -1)[/tex]

let's calculate

           W = ½ ( [tex]\frac{8}{32}[/tex] ) 5 ((2/1)² -1)

           W = 0.625 (3)

Students are asked to design an experiment to confirm that the pressure and volume of an ideal gas are inversely proportional. They use a cylinder containing an ideal gas that has a plunger equipped with a pressure sensor. They perform several trials, and in each trial they start with the gas at the same initial pressure and volume. The students then quickly push the plunger so that the gas achieves a different final pressure and volume. After analyzing their results, they determine that the final pressures and volumes do not follow an inversely proportional relationship. Which of the following refinements to the procedure would show the inverse proportionality between pressure and volume?
A. Compress the gas slowly so that the temperature remains constant.
B. Perform more trials to obtain more data points.
C. Discard data points that do not show inverse proportionality between pressure and volume.
D. Compress the plunger even faster so that the compression is effectively instantaneous.

Answers

Answer:

the answers the correct one is A

Explanation:

Let's analyze the situation, the expression for ideal gases is

         PV = n R T

in this case n is the number of moles of the gas remains constant, so we see that there is a relationship between volume, pressure and temperature.

For the experiment we are conducting we must ensure that the temperature remains constant, one way to achieve this is by placing a small thermometer on the surface of the cylinder.

By rapidly compressing part of the work done, it is converted into internal energy of the gas molecules, and from there it is transformed into its temperature. One way to reduce this effect is to COMPRESS SLOWLY and thus keep the temperature constant.

Two identical copper blocks are connected by a weightless, unstretchable cord through a frictionless pulley at the top of a thin wedge. One edge of the wedge is vertical, and the tip makes an angle of 33. The block that hangs vertically weighs 2.85 kg, and the block on the incline weighs 2.94 kg. If the two blocks do not move, what is magnitude of the force of friction on the second second block

Answers

Answer:

13.6 N

Explanation:

Since one side of the wedge is vertical and the wedge makes and angle of 33 with the horizontal, the angle between the weight of the copper block on the incline and the incline is thus 90 - 33 = 57.

Let M be the mass of the block that hangs, m be the mass of the block on the incline and T be the tension in the weightless unstretchable cord.

We assume the motion is downwards in the direction of the hanging block, M.

We now write equations of motion for each block.

So

Mg - T = Ma    (1) and T - mgcos57 - F = ma where F is the frictional force on the block on the incline and a is their acceleration.

Now, since both blocks do not move, a = 0.

So, Mg - T = M(0) = 0     and T - mgcos57 - F = m(0) = 0

Mg - T = 0    (3) and T - mgcos57 - F = 0 (4)

From (3), T = Mg

Substituting T into (4), we have

T - mgcos57 - F = 0

Mg - mgcos57 - F = 0

So, Mg - mgcos57 = F  

F = Mg - mgcos57

F = (M - mcos57)g

Since g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², and M = 2.94 kg and m = 2.85 kg.

We find F, thus

F = (2.94 kg - 2.85 kgcos57)9.8 m/s²

F = (2.94 kg - 2.85 kg × 0.5446)9.8 m/s²

F = (2.94 kg - 1.552 kg)9.8 m/s²

F = (1.388 kg)9.8 m/s²

F = 13.6024 kgm/s²

F ≅ 13.6 N

A 72.9-kg base runner begins his slide into second base when moving at a speed of 4.02 m/s. The coefficient of friction between his clothes and Earth is 0.701. He slides so that his speed is zero just as he reaches the base. (a)How much mechanical energy is lost due to friction acting on the runner

Answers

Answer:

-589.05 J

Explanation:

Using work-kinetic energy theorem, the work done by friction = kinetic energy change of the base runner

So, W = ΔK

W = 1/2m(v₁² - v₀²) where m = mass of base runner = 72.9 kg, v₀ = initial speed of base runner = 4.02 m/s and v₁ = final speed of base runner = 0 m/s(since he stops as he reaches home base)

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

W = 1/2m(v₁² - v₀²)

W = 1/2 × 72.9 kg((0 m/s)² - (4.02 m/s)²)

W = 1/2 × 72.9 kg(0 m²/s² - 16.1604 m²/s²)

W = 1/2 × 72.9 kg(-16.1604 m²/s²)

W = 1/2 × (-1178.09316 kgm²/s²)

W = -589.04658 kgm²/s²

W = -589.047 J

W ≅ -589.05 J

The elastic energy stored in your tendons can contribute up to 35 % of your energy needs when running. Sports scientists have studied the change in length of the knee extensor tendon in sprinters and nonathletes. They find (on average) that the sprinters' tendons stretch 41 mm , while nonathletes' stretch only 33 mm .

Answers

Hello. Your question is incomplete. However, I managed to find it completely on the internet and I realized that you forgot to mention that the question asks you for the maximum energy difference between velovistas and non-athletes, considering that the spring constant for the tendon of the two groups is equal to 33n/mm.

To make this calculation you will need to use Hooke's law, using the formula: ¹/2*K*x², where "K" will be the value of the spring constant for the tendon and "X" will be the value of the sprinter and non-athlete terms.

So for the sprinter we will have the calculation:

¹/2*33*41² -------> 0,5*33*1681 = 27736. 5 Nmm

(To facilitate the calculation, first solve the division of ¹/2 and then multiply 41 by 41, lastly, just multiply all the results.)

For the non-athlete we will have the calculation:

¹/2*33*33² -------> 0,5*33*1089 = 17968. 5 Nmm

(To facilitate the calculation, first solve the division of ¹/2 and then multiply 41 by 41, lastly, just multiply all the results.)

Now, to reach the final result, you only need to subtract the two values presented by the sprinter and the non-athlete.

27736.5 - 17968.5 = 9768 Nmm

Melvina has a mass of 70 kg and is about to jump from the window ledge of a burning building.
The ledge is 80 m above the ground. What is Melvina's potential energy?

Answers

Melvina's potential energy is 54,880 Joules.

To calculate Melvina's potential energy, we need to use the formula for gravitational potential energy:

Potential energy = mass × gravitational acceleration × height

Potential energy is a measure of the energy an object possesses due to its position relative to other objects. In this case, Melvina's potential energy is a result of her height above the ground. As she stands on the ledge of the burning building, her potential energy is stored and can be converted into other forms of energy if she were to jump or fall. The potential energy will decrease as she descends, and it will be converted into kinetic energy (energy of motion).

Given that Melvina has a mass of 70 kg and the ledge is 80 m above the ground, we can substitute the values into the formula:

Potential energy = 70 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 80 m

Calculating this, we find:

Potential energy = 54,880 Joules

Two identical loudspeakers are driven in phase by the same amplifier. The speakers are positioned a distance of 3.2 m apart. A person stands 5.0 m away from one speaker and 6.2 m away from the other. Calculate the second lowest frequency that results in destructive interference at the point where the person is standing. Assume the speed of sound to be 330 m/ s. A) 183 Hz B) 275 Hz C) 413 Hz D) 137 Hz E) 550 Hz

Answers

Answer:

C) 413 Hz

Explanation:

For destructive interference, the path difference ΔL = (n + 1/2)λ where ΔL = L₂ - L₁ where L₁ = person's distance from one speaker (the closer one) = 5.0m and L₂ = person's distance from other speaker (the farther one) = 6.2 m and λ = wavelength = v/f where v = speed of sound = 330 m/s and f = frequency

So, ΔL = (n + 1/2)λ

L₂ - L₁  = (n + 1/2)v/f

f = (n + 1/2)v/(L₂ - L₁)

At the second lowest frequency that results in destructive interference at the point where the person is standing, n = 1.

So,

f = (1 + 1/2)v/(L₂ - L₁)

f = 3v/2(L₂ - L₁)

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

f = 3v/2(L₂ - L₁)

f = 3(330 m/s)/2(6.2 m - 5.0 m)

f = 3(330 m/s)/2(1.2 m)

f = 990 m/s ÷ 2.4 m)

f = 412.5 Hz

f ≅ 413 Hz

Two ice skaters, with masses of 50 kg and 75 kg , are at the center of a 30 m -diameter circular rink. The skaters push off against each other and glide to opposite edges of the rink. Part A If the heavier skater reaches the edge in 30 s , how long does the lighter skater take to reach the edge

Answers

Answer:

t = 20 s

Explanation:

Assuming no other forces acting on the skaters when they push off against each other, and that we can neglect friction, total momentum must be conserved.The initial momentum is just zero, because both skaters are at rest.So, when both are gliding to opposite edges of the rink, at any moment, we can write the following expression:

       [tex]p_{f} = m_{1} * v_{1} = m_{2} * v_{2} (1)[/tex]

where m₁ = 50 kg, m₂ = 75 kg.We know that the heavier skater reaches the edge in 30 s.Since the distance from the center to any point on the edge is just half the diameter, we can find the speed of the heavier skater as follows:

       [tex]v_{2} = \frac{15m}{30s} = 0.5 m/s (2)[/tex]

Replacing m₁, m₂ and v₂ in (1), we can solve for the only unknown (v₁) as follows:

       [tex]v_{1} = \frac{m_{2}*v_{2}}{m_{1} } = \frac{75 kg*0.5m/s}{50kg} = 0.75 m/s (3)[/tex]

Since the distance to the opposite edge from the center is the same than for the heavier skater, we can find the time needed for the lighter one to reach the edge as follows:[tex]t_{1} = \frac{15m}{0.75m/s} = 20 s (4)[/tex]
