From the question we are told that:
Weight [tex]W=100lbf[/tex]
Decrease in kinetic energy [tex]dK.E= 500 ft lbf[/tex]
Increase in potential energy [tex]dP.E =1500 ft lbf.[/tex]
Velocity [tex]V_1=40[/tex]
Elevation [tex]h=30ft[/tex]
[tex]g=32.2 ft/s2[/tex]
a)
Generally the equation for Change in Kinetic Energy is mathematically given by
[tex]dK.E=\frac{1}{2}m(v_1^2-v_2^2)[/tex]
[tex]500=\frac{1}{2}*\frac{100}{32.2}(v_1^2-v_2^2)[/tex]
[tex]v_2=35.60ft/sec[/tex]
b)
Generally the equation for Change in Potential Energy is mathematically given by
[tex]dP.E=mg(h_2-h_1)[/tex]
[tex]1500=mg(h_2-h_1)[/tex]
[tex]h_2=45ft[/tex]
A mountain biker takes a jump in a race and goes airborne. The mountain bike is travelling at 10.0 m/s before it goes airborne. If the mass of the front wheel on the bike is 750 g and has radius 35 cm, what is the angular momentum of the spinning wheel in the air the moment the bike leaves the ground?
Answer:
Explanation:
The formula for angular momentum is
L = mvr where L is the angular momentum, m is the mass of the object, v is the velocity of the object, and r is the radius of the object. The problem we have that prevents us from just throwing those numbers in there is that mass has to be in kg and it's not, and radius has to be in meters and it's not.
Changing the mass to kg:
750 g = .750 kg
Changing the radius to m:
35 cm = .35 m
Now we can fill in the variables with their respective values:
L = .750(10.0)(.35) gives us
[tex]L=2.625\frac{kg*m^2}{s}[/tex]

if a projectile travels in the air for 6 seconds when does the projectile reach its highest point
This question deals with projectile motion, which is a motion on both the x-axis and y-axis, simultaneously. The total time of flight of the projectile trajectory is given, while the time to reach the highest point of the projectile is required to be found.
The projectile will reach the highest point in "3 seconds".
The total time of flight of a projectile is the time during which the projectile remains in the air. For a projectile motion that ends up on the same horizontal level, from where it started, the time to reach the highest point, is equal to half of the total time of flight.
In other words, the projectile motion takes the same time, to go from the starting level to the highest point (i.e upward motion), as the time taken to reach the starting level from the highest point (i.e downward motion).
[tex]t = \frac{1}{2}T[/tex]
where,
t = time to reach the highest point = ?
T = total time of flight = 6 seconds
Therefore,
[tex]t - \frac{1}{2}(6\ seconds)[/tex]
t = 3 seconds

A rocket explodes into two fragments, one 25 times heavier than the other. The magnitude of the momentum change of the lighter fragment is A) 25 times as great as the momentum change of the heavier fragment. B) The same as the momentum change of the heavier fragment. C) 1/25 as great as the momentum change of the heavier fragment. D) 5 times as great as the momentum change of the heavier fragment. E) 1/4 as great as the momentum change of the heavier fragment.
Answer:
B) The same as the momentum change of the heavier fragment.
Explanation:
Since the initial momentum of the system is zero, we have
0 = p + p' where p = momentum of lighter fragment = mv where m = mass of lighter fragment, v = velocity of lighter fragment, and p' = momentum of heavier fragment = m'v' where m = mass of heavier fragment = 25m and v = velocity of heavier fragment.
0 = p + p'
p = -p'
Since the initial momentum of each fragment is zero, the momentum change of lighter fragment Δp = final momentum - initial momentum = p - 0 = p
The momentum change of heavier fragment Δp' = final momentum - initial momentum = p' - 0 = p' - 0 = p'
Since p = -p' and Δp = p and Δp' = -p = p ⇒ Δp = Δp'
So, the magnitude of the momentum change of the lighter fragment is the same as that of the heavier fragment.
So, option B is the answer
Thorium-232 goes through multiple types of decay in order to reach a stable isotope. What isotope is created after the first two decays if it first goes through an alpha decay and then a beta decay?
A)uranium-236
B)protactinium-232
C)radon-224
D)Astinium-228
Answer:
The answer would be D), if the decay is beta negative.
Explanation:
Thorium-232 goes through alpha decay:
Thorium-232 --> Helium-4 + Radium-228
Radium-228 then can undergo beta positive or beta negative decay:
Beta positive = Radium-228 --> Electron + Francium-228
Beta negative = Radium-228 --> Positron + Actinium-228
Therefore, the isotope that is created is Actinium-228

Two loudspeakers are placed 1.8 m apart. They play tones of equal frequency. If you stand 3.0 m in front of the speakers, and exactly between them, you hear a minimum of intensity. As you walk parallel to the plane of the speakers, staying 3.0 m away, the sound intensity increases until reaching a maximum when you are directly in front of one of the speakers. The speed of sound in the room is 340 m/s.
What is the frequency of the sound?
Solution :
Given :
The distance between the two loud speakers, [tex]d = 1.8 \ m[/tex]
The speaker are in phase and so the path difference is zero constructive interference occurs.
At the point [tex]D[/tex], the speakers are out of phase and so the path difference is [tex]$=\frac{\lambda}{2}$[/tex]
Therefore,
[tex]$AD-BD = \frac{\lambda}{2}[/tex]
[tex]$\sqrt{(1.8)^2+(3)^2-3} =\frac{\lambda}{2}$[/tex]
[tex]$\lambda = 2 \times 0.4985$[/tex]
[tex]$\lambda = 0.99714 \ m$[/tex]
Thus the frequency is :

A 5.85-mm-high firefly sits on the axis of, and 13.7 cm in front of, the thin lens A, whose focal length is 5.01 cm. Behind lens A there is another thin lens, lens B, with focal length 25.9 cm. The two lenses share a common axis and are 62.5 cm apart. 1. Is the image of the firefly that lens B forms real or virtual?
a. Real
b. Vrtual
2. How far from lens B is this image located (expressed as a positive number)?
3. What is the height of this image (as a positive number)?
4. Is this image upright or inverted with respect to the firefly?
a. Upright
b. Inverted
Answer:
1. The image is real
2. 5.85
3. h' = 3.05 mm
4. The image is upright
Explanation:
1. Start with the first lens and apply 1/f = 1/p + 1/q
1/5.01 = 1/13.7 + 1/q
q = 7.90 cm
Since that distance is behind the first lens, and the second lens is 62.5 cm behind the first lens, that distance is 62.5 - 7.90 = 54.6 cm in front of the second lens, and becomes the object for that lens, thus,
1/25.9 = 1/54.6 + 1/q
q = 49.3 cm behind the second lens
Using that information, since q is positive, the image is real
2. Also, using that information, you have the second answer, which is 49.3 cm
The height can be found from the two magnifications.
m = -q/p
m1 = -7.9/13.7 = -.577
m2 = -49.3/54.6 = -.903
Net m = (-.577)(-.903) = .521
Then, m = h'/h
.521 = h'/5.85
3. h' = 3.05 mm
4. For the fourth answer, since the overall magnification is positive, the final image is upright
Two loudspeakers, 5.5 m apart and facing each other, play identical sounds of the same frequency. You stand halfway between them, where there is a maximum of sound intensity. Moving from this point toward one of the speakers, you encounter a minimum of sound intensity when you have moved 0.25 m . Assume the speed of sound is 340 m/s.
Required:
a. What is the frequency of the sound?
b. If the frequency is then increased while you remain 0.21 m from the center, what is the first frequency for which that location will be a maximum of sound intensity?
c.
Solution :
Let [tex]$d_1=\frac{5.5}{2}[/tex]
= 2.75 m
[tex]d_2 = 0.21 \ m[/tex]
And [tex]$d=|d_1-d_2|$[/tex]
[tex]$d=(d_1+d_2) - (d_1-d_2)$[/tex]
[tex]$d=(2.75+0.21) - (2.75-0.21)$[/tex]
[tex]$d = 2.96-2.54$[/tex]
[tex]d = 0.42 \ m[/tex]
a). At minimum,
[tex]$d=\frac{\lambda}{2}$[/tex]
[tex]$\lambda = 2d$[/tex]
= 2 x 0.42
= 0.84 m
Frequency, [tex]$\nu = \frac{v}{\lambda}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{340}{0.84}$[/tex]
= 404.76 Hz
Therefore, the frequency of he sound, [tex]$\nu$[/tex] = 404.76 Hz
b). At maximum, λ = d = 0.42 m
Therefore, the frequency, [tex]$\nu = \frac{v}{\lambda}[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{350}{0.42}$[/tex]
= 809.52 Hz

Suppose a 60-turn coil lies in the plane of the page in a uniform magnetic field that is directed out of the page. The coil originally has an area of 0.325 m2. It is stretched to have no area in 0.100 s. What is the magnitude (in V) and direction (as seen from above) of the average induced emf if the uniform magnetic field has a strength of 1.60 T
Answer:
emf = 312 V
Explanation:
In this exercise the electromotive force is asked, for which we must use Faraday's law
emf = [tex]- N \frac{d \Phi }{dt}[/tex]- N dfi / dt
Ф = B. A = B A cos θ
bold type indicates vectors.
They indicate that the magnetic field is constant, the angle between the normal to the area and the magnetic field is parallel by local cosine values 1
It also indicates that the area is reduced from a₀ = 0.325 me² to a_f = 0 in a time interval of ΔT = 0.100 s, suppose that this reduction is linear
emf = -N B [tex]\frac{dA}{dT}[/tex]
emf = - N B (A_f - A₀) / Dt
we calculate
emf = - 60 1.60 (0 - 0.325) /0.100
emf = 312 V
The direction of this voltage is exiting the page

As the speed of a particle approaches the speed of light, the momentum of the particle Group of answer choices approaches zero. decreases. approaches infinity. remains the same. increases.
Answer:
approaches infinity
Explanation:
There are two momentums, the classical momentum which is equal to the product of mass and velocity, and the relativistic momentum, the one we should look at when we work with high speeds, and this happens because massive objects have a speed limit, in this case, we are approaching the speed of light, so we need to work with the relativistic momentum instead of the classical momentum.
The relativistic momentum can be written as:
[tex]p = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{u^2}{c^2} } } *m*u[/tex]
where
u = speed of the object relative to the observer, in this case we have that u tends to c, the speed of light.
m = mass of the object
c = speed of light.
So, as u tends to c, we will have:
[tex]\lim_{u \to c} p = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{u^2}{c^2} } } *m*u[/tex]
Notice that when u tends to c, the denominator on the first term tends to zero, thus, the relativistic momentum of the object will tend to infinity.
Then the correct option is infinity, as the particle speed approaches the speed of light, the relativistic momentum of the particle tends to infinity.
A standard bathroom scale is placed on an elevator. A 28 kg boy enters the elevator on the first floor and steps on the scale. What will the scale read (in newtons) when the elevator begins to accelerate upward at 0.5 m/s2
Answer:
Explanation:
Newton's Second Law is pretty much the standard for all motion that involves a force. It applies to gravitational force and torque and friction and weight on an elevator. The main formula for force is
F = ma. We have to adjust that to take into account that when the elevator is moving up, that "surge" of acceleration weighs down a bit on the scale, causing it to read higher than the actual weight until the acceleration evens out and there is no acceleration at all (no acceleration simply means that the velocity is constant; acceleration by definition is a change in velocity, and if there is no change in velocity, there is 0 acceleration). The force equation then becomes
[tex]F_n-w=ma[/tex] where [tex]F_n[/tex] is normal force. This is what the scale will read, which is what we are looking for in this problem (our unknown). Since we are looking for [tex]F_n[/tex], that is what we will solve this literal equation for:
[tex]F_n=ma+w[/tex] . m is the mass of the boy, a is the acceleration of the elevator (which is going up so we will call that acceleration positive), and w is weight. We have everything but the unknown and the weight of the boy. We find the weight:
w = mg so
w = 28(9.8) and
w = 274.4 N BUT rounding to the correct number of significance we have that the weight is actually
w = 270 N.
Filling in the elevator equation:
[tex]F_n=28(.50)+270[/tex] and according to the rules of significant digits, we have to multiply the 28(.50) {notice that I did add a 0 there for greater significance; if not that added 0 we are only looking at 1 significant digit which is pretty much useless}, round that to 2 sig fig's, and then add to 170:
[tex]F_n=14+270[/tex] and adding, by the rules, requires that we round to the tens place to get, finally:
[tex]F_n=280N[/tex] So you see that the surge in acceleration did in fact add a tiny bit to the weight read by the scale; conversely, if he were to have moved down at that same rate, the scale would have read a bit less than his actual weight). Isn't physics like the coolest thing ever!?

a) Q√2
b) 16Q
c) 2Q
d) 4Q
e) 8Q
Answer:
c) 2Q
Explanation:
From the given information:
The pressure inside a pipe can be expressed by using the formula:
[tex]\Delta P = \dfrac{128 \mu L Q}{\pi D^4}[/tex]
Since the diameter in both pipes is the same, we can say:
[tex]D = D_A = D_B[/tex]
where;
length of the first pipe A [tex]L_A = L[/tex] and the length of the second pipe B [tex]L_B = 2L[/tex]
Since the difference in pressure is equivalent in both pipes:
Then:
[tex]\dfrac{128 \mu L_1Q_1}{\pi D_1^4} = \dfrac{128 \mu L_2Q_2}{\pi D_2^4}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{ L_1Q_1}{D_1^4} = \dfrac{ L_2Q_2}{D_2^4}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{ LQ_1}{D^4} = \dfrac{ 2LQ}{D^4}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{Q_1 = 2Q}[/tex]
The flow rate in pipe B is 2Q of the flow rate of the pipe A
What is flow rate?
The flow rate is defined as the flow of the fluid across the cross section in per unit time.
From the given information:
The pressure inside a pipe can be expressed by using the formula:
[tex]\Delta p=\dfrac{128\mu LQ}{\pi D^4}[/tex]
Since the diameter in both pipes is the same, we can say:
[tex]D=D_A=D_B[/tex]
where;
length of the first pipe A [tex]L_A=L[/tex] and the length of the second pipe B
[tex]L_B=2L[/tex]
Since the difference in pressure is equivalent in both pipes:
Then:
[tex]\dfrac{128\mu L_1Q_1}{\pi D_1^4}=\dfrac{128\mu L_2Q_2}{\pi D_2^4}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{L_1Q_1}{D_1^4}=\dfrac{L_2Q_2}{D_2^4}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{LQ_1}{D_1^4}=\dfrac{2LQ}{D_2^4}[/tex]

Two resistances, R1 and R2, are connected in series across a 12-V battery. The current increases by 0.500 A when R2 is removed, leaving R1 connected across the battery. However, the current increases by just 0.250 A when R1 is removed, leaving R2 connected across the battery.
(a) Find R1.
Ω
(b) Find R2.
Ω
Answer:
a) R₁ = 14.1 Ω, b) R₂ = 19.9 Ω
Explanation:
For this exercise we must use ohm's law remembering that in a series circuit the equivalent resistance is the sum of the resistances
all resistors connected
V = i (R₁ + R₂)
with R₁ connected
V = (i + 0.5) R₁
with R₂ connected
V = (i + 0.25) R₂
We have a system of three equations with three unknowns for which we can solve it
We substitute the last two equations in the first
V = i ( [tex]\frac{V}{ i+0.5} + \frac{V}{i+0.25}[/tex] )
1 = i ( [tex]\frac{1}{i+0.5} + \frac{1}{i+0.25}[/tex] )
1 = i ( [tex]\frac{i+0.5+i+0.25}{(i+0.5) \ ( i+0.25) }[/tex] ) = [tex]\frac{i^2 + 0.75i}{i^2 + 0.75 i + 0.125}[/tex]
i² + 0.75 i + 0.125 = 2i² + 0.75 i
i² - 0.125 = 0
i = √0.125
i = 0.35355 A
with the second equation we look for R1
R₁ = [tex]\frac{V}{i+0.5}[/tex]
R₁ = 12 /( 0.35355 +0.5)
R₁ = 14.1 Ω
with the third equation we look for R2
R₂ = [tex]\frac{V}{i+0.25}[/tex]
R₂ =[tex]\frac{12}{0.35355+0.25}[/tex]
R₂ = 19.9 Ω

Answer:
the answer is 49000 joules at the maximum height
Explanation:
we know the mass (50kg)
we know the acceleration due to gravity(9.8m/s²)
we know the height too(maximum height meaning the 50th step so we multiply 50 with 20cm as each step is 20 cm and we get 1000 cm, convert to m it is 100 m
the formula is potential energy=mgh
m for mass
g for acceleration due to gravity
h for height
multiply them
50x9.8x100

A car is driving towards an intersection when the light turns red. The brakes apply a constant force of 1,398 newtons to bring the car to a complete stop in 25 meters. If the weight of the car is 4,729 newtons, how fast was the car going initially
Answer:
the initial velocity of the car is 12.04 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
force applied by the break, f = 1,398 N
distance moved by the car before stopping, d = 25 m
weight of the car, W = 4,729 N
The mass of the car is calculated as;
W = mg
m = W/g
m = (4,729) / (9.81)
m = 482.06 kg
The deceleration of the car when the force was applied;
-F = ma
a = -F/m
a = -1,398 / 482.06
a = -2.9 m/s²
The initial velocity of the car is calculated as;
v² = u² + 2ad
where;
v is the final velocity of the car at the point it stops = 0
u is the initial velocity of the car before the break was applied
0 = u² + 2(-a)d
0 = u² - 2ad
u² = 2ad
u = √2ad
u = √(2 x 2.9 x 25)
u =√(145)
u = 12.04 m/s
Therefore, the initial velocity of the car is 12.04 m/s
