Question
In a free-fall experiment, an object is dropped from a height of 144 feet. A camera on the ground 500 feet from
the point of impact records the fall of the object. Assuming the object is released at time t = 0.
Find the rate of change of the angle of elevation of the camera when ? = 1.

- You have been chosen as the test subject for the newest attraction at Canada’s Wonderland. This attraction is a single-person roller coaster ride that has a 25.0 m drop followed by a collision with a plunger attached to a large spring that brings the ride to rest. The plunger/spring mechanism is composed of a large spring with a mass of 62.5 kg made of pure iron..The cart has a mass of 75.0 kg and starts at rest from the top of the track. To determine the total mass of the cart during the ride you must add your mass to the system. As the cart moves down the track it has been determined that friction in the wheels and axles results in the production of 12750 J of thermal and sound energy combined. The plunger/piston at the bottom of the device has been designed to stop the cart with a maximum acceleration of 5.00 g’s (i.e. 49.0 m/s2). What is your approximate mass in kilograms?

The cars are equipped with a coupling arrangement similar to the one on railroad cars. Car #1 overtakes car #2 and they have a totally inelastic collision and become coupled together. You know the mass of each car; m₁ = 13.5 kg and m₂ = 45.0 kg. In addition, you are provided with the following graph, which shows the momentum of car #1 before, during and after the collision. p (kg. m/s) 100 40 Determine the velocity (in m/s) of car #2 before the collision. t(s)arrow_forward

Exactly one second later, an 8g bullet is fired upward from the ground with a muzzle velocity of 300(m)/(s). Assume an inelastic collision occurs between the two objects. How long after the 10kg object is dropped will the combined object hit the ground? Compare that time to the time for the 10kg object to hit the ground without the collision.arrow_forward
- The tank is to be placed on a hill that is 1 km high above the ground. The enemy’s base is located at a horizontal distance of 10 km away and it is in a valley 0.5 km below the ground. Air resistance is neglected. Gravitational acceleration is constant and equal to 9.8?/?2 downwards. If the bomb is to be fired perfectly horizontally, what should the launching speed of the bomb be in order to hit the target? What is the duration it would take the bomb to hit the target? Find x(t) and y(t). Consider the initial location of the tank to be (0, 1 km)? Draw the trajectory of the bomb (x and y coordinates). Indicate clearly the value of x (horizontal displacement) when the bomb reaches the ground level. 5. Draw the (?), ??(?), and ??(?) vertical above each other.
