Chapter 6, Problem 19P
* You decide to use your garden hose to wash your garage door. Every second, 0.8 kg of water leaves the hose at a speed of 9.0 m/s with respect to the hose, hits the garage door perpendicularly, and spills down the door surface. Determine the magnitude of the force that the water jet from the hose exerts on the door. What assumptions did you make?

A horizontal water jet of constant velocity V from a stationary nozzle impinges normally on a vertical flat plate that rides on a nearly frictionless track. As the water jet hits the plate, it begins to move due to the water force. What is the highest velocity the plate can attain? Explain.
You have been chosen as the test subject for the newest attraction at Disney. This attraction is a single-person roller coaster ride that has a 25.0 m drop followed by a plunger/piston device that brings the ride to rest. The plunger/piston is connected to a cylinder that contains 250 kg of water. 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 (MY MASS IS 55KG). As the cart moves down the track it has been determined that friction in the wheels and axles results in the production of 2750 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).
Question:
The remaining kinetic energy of the cart is removed as work is done pushing in the plunger/piston and compressing the water inside the cylinder. Use the work equation to determine the displacement of the…

- Usually, we do not walk or even stand on a lightweight boat or raft because of the danger of falling into the water. If you have ever stepped off a small boat onto a dock, however, you have probably noticed that the boat moves away from the dock as you step toward the dock or out of the boat. A heavy dog running on a long lightweight raft presents a similar situation. At first, the raft and the dog are at rest with respect to the water (Fig. P10.38A) so that vi=0. The dog then runs on top of the raft at vd=vd with respect to the water (Fig. P10.38B). The dog has twice the mass of the raft. Find an expression for the velocity of the raft after the dog began running. FIGURE P10.38arrow_forwardYou are part of a team in an engineering class that is working on a scale model of a new design for a life vest. You have been asked to find the mass of a piece of foam that will be used for flotation. Because the piece is too bulky to fit on your balance, you break it into two parts. You measure the mass of the first part as 128.3 0.3 g and the second part as 77.0 0.3 g. a. What are the maximum and minimum values for the total mass you might reasonably report? b. What is the best estimate for the total mass of the foam? Hint: Propagation of uncertainty is described in Appendix A.arrow_forwardA garden hose is held as shown in Figure P9.32.

- A cart filled with sand rolls at a speed of 1.0 m/s along a horizontal path without friction. A ball of mass m = 2.0 kg is thrown with a horizontal velocity of 8.0 m/s toward the cart as shown in Figure P11.79. The ball gets stuck in the sand. What is the velocity of the cart after the ball strikes it? The mass of the cart is 15 kg. FIGURE P11.79 Problems 79 and 80.arrow_forwardReturn to Example 9.9 and use the result to find the tension in the rope. Example 9.9 Snow Tubing At a winter recreation resort, snow tubers at the bottom of the hill hook their tubes to a tow rope. A motor pulls the rope so that tubers move at constant velocity to the top of the hill. (Ignore the momentary acceleration of the tuber when he first attaches his tube to the rope.) The coefficient of kinetic friction between the tube and the snow is k = 0.16. A boy and his tube with a total weight of 415 N are pulled a distance of 255 m up the 18 incline (Fig. 9.29). Consider the Earth, the boy, his tube, and the snow along his path to make up the system. Find the energy transferred from the motor to the system via the work done by the rope. FIGURE 9.29arrow_forwardA laborer wants to move crates containing bottles of olive oil from a truck to the ground by sliding them along a ramp. The ramp is 6 m long and is at an angle of 25°. There is friction on the ramp for the first crate. The laborer doesn’t know that there is a small leak in one of the bottles. The leak leaves a layer of oil on the ramp. The oil creates a frictionless surface for the second crate Wayne sends down the ramp. At the bottom of the ramp, the speed of the second crate (without friction) is 2.5 the speed of the first crate (with friction). Find the coefficient of kinetic friction. Hint: this is a multistep problem that is be solved using only energy equations. Do not use kinematics . Use conservation of energy and start with the frictionless case.arrow_forward
