Question
A 5-cm-diameter horizontal jet of water with a velocity
of 40 m/s relative to the ground strikes a flat plate that is
moving in the same direction as the jet at a velocity of 10 m/s.
The water splatters in all directions in the plane of the plate.
How much force does the water stream exert on the plate?

- Jason takes off from rest across level water on his jet-powered skis. The combined mass of Jason and his skis is 75 kg (the mass of the fuel is negligible). The skis have a thrust of 200 N and a coefficient of kinetic friction on water of 0.10. Unfortunately, the skis run out of fuel after only 27 s. How far has Jason traveled when he finally coasts to a stop?arrow_forwardA 2.50 kg box sits halfway up a 16.0 m long ramp that is inclined at an angle of 16.00. You shove a second box, of mass 1.50 kg, that's at the bottom of the ramp, so that it starts sliding up the ramp with a speed of 20.0 m/s. It hits the first box, sticks to it, and they both continue to slide up the ramp. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the boxes and the ramp is 0.200. Where, from the bottom of the ramp, do they come to rest?arrow_forwardA hockey player slaps a puck into a cushion, which brings the puck to rest. If the puck's initial velocity was +40 m/s and it has a mass of 170 g, what force does the cushion apply to the puck? Assume the cushion acts on the puck for 0.03 s and the surface that the puck slides on is frictionless.arrow_forward
- A 40.0 kg child is standing on a 42 kg raft that is drifting with a velocity 0f 1.2 m/s [N]relative to the water. The child walks on the raft with a net velocity of 0.71 m/s [E]relative to the water. Fluid friction between the raft and the water is negligible.Determine the resulting velocity of the raft relative to the water. i and j vectors are notpermitted. Please don't use a previously answered question, draw a diagram and dont forget the angles. Thanksarrow_forwardA 400 g cart is moving along a horizontal, frictionless surface at a constant speed of30 cm/s. A 100 g piece of modelling clay is dropped vertically onto the cart from above. (a) Calculate the final speed of the system (clay + cart) if the clay sticks to the cart.(b) The cart has been slowed down a little bit after the clay sticks to the cart. Whattype of force caused the (negative) acceleration of the cart? What object applied this force?(c) Before it hit the cart the clay was moving downwards and therefore possesseddownwards momentum; after it hit the cart it stopped moving downwards. Why was theclay’s momentum not conserved as it hit the cart? What type of force caused the clay to stopmoving downwards? What object now possesses the clay’s downwards momentum?arrow_forwardFind the center of mass of a one-meter long rod, made of 50 cm of iron (density 8 g/cm3 ) and 50 cm of aluminum (density 2.7 g/cm3 ).arrow_forward
