A movie stunt double is supposed to run across the top of a train (in the opposite direction that the train is moving) and just barely jump off before reaching a tunnel, but after reaching the end of the train (starting from the front). If the train is moving at 150 km/hr, is 2 km long and the tunnel is 20 km away from the end (where the stunt double is going to jump from), how fast (in km/hr) will the stunt double need to run

the required speed/velocity of the stunt double is 13.633 km/h

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

velocity of train V = 150 km/h

distance = length of train + distance between the tunnel and the end

= 2 km + 20 km = 22 km

first we calculate time t taken by the train to reach the tunnel;

t = distance / velocity

we substitute

t = 22 km / 250 km/h

t = 0.1467 hr

so the velocity of the of the stunt double will be;

velocity = distance / time

we substitute

velocity = 2 km / 0.1467 hr

velocity = 13.633 km/h

Therefore, the required speed/velocity of the stunt double is 13.633 km/h

Answer:

see below.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the conservation of energy and conservation of momentum principles.

Conservation of energy:

The total initial energy is the rest energy of the proton and neutron, which is given by:

Ei = (mp + mn)c^2

where mp and mn are the masses of the proton and neutron, respectively, and c is the speed of light.

The total final energy is the rest energy of the deuteron plus the energy of the gamma ray, which is given by:

Ef = (md)c^2 + Eg

where md is the mass of the deuteron and Eg is the energy of the gamma ray.

According to the conservation of energy principle, the initial energy and final energy must be equal, so we have:

Ei = Ef

(mp + mn)c^2 = (md)c^2 + Eg

Conservation of momentum:

The total initial momentum is zero because the proton and neutron are at rest. The total final momentum is the momentum of the deuteron and the momentum of the gamma ray. Since the gamma ray is massless, its momentum is given by:

pg = Eg/c

where pg is the momentum of the gamma ray.

According to the conservation of momentum principle, the total final momentum must be equal to zero, so we have:

0 = pd + pg

where pd is the momentum of the deuteron.

Solving for md and pd:

From the conservation of energy equation, we can solve for md:

md = (mp + mn - Eg/c^2)/c^2

Substituting this expression into the conservation of momentum equation, we get:

pd = -pg = -Eg/c

Substituting the given values, we have:

mp = 1.6726 × 10^-27 kg mn = 1.6749 × 10^-27 kg Eg = 2.2 × 10^6 eV = 3.52 × 10^-13 J

Using c = 2.998 × 10^8 m/s, we get:

md = (1.6726 × 10^-27 kg + 1.6749 × 10^-27 kg - 3.52 × 10^-13 J/(2.998 × 10^8 m/s)^2)/(2.998 × 10^8 m/s)^2 = 3.3435 × 10^-27 kg

pd = -Eg/c = -(3.52 × 10^-13 J)/(2.998 × 10^8 m/s) = -1.1723 × 10^-21 kg·m/s

Therefore, the mass of the deuteron is 3.3435 × 10^-27 kg, and its momentum is -1.1723 × 10^-21 kg·m/s.

Answer:

9.6 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken by the tomatoes to each the ground

using h = 1/2 g t^2 

t^2 = 2h/g = 2 x 50/ 9.8 = 10.2

t = 3.2 sec 

horizontal ditance = speed x time = 3 x 3.2 = 9.6 meters

Answer:
7.25 secs.

Explanation:
First find the distance it takes to stop
s = [v^2-u^2]/2a = 0^2 - 8.7^2/2[-2.4] = 8.7^2/4.8
Next find the time it takes to go that distance , s = ut +[1/2] at^2
8.7^2/4.8 = 8.7t +[1/2] [ -2.4]t^2 , rearrange and
t^2 -[8.7/1.2]+ 8.7^2/[(1.2)(4.8)]=0 complete the square
[t - (8.7/2.4)]^2=0
t = 8.7/2.4 = 3.625 secs
At this stage the deceleration will push the object back in the direction it came from for another 3.625 secs when it will be 8.7 m/s again
Total time , T =2t = 7.25 secs.

Note:
The term differential is used in calculus to refer to an infinitesimal (infinitely small) change in some varying quantity. For example, if x is a variable, then a change in the value of x is often denoted Δx (pronounced delta x). The differential dx represents an infinitely small change in the variable x.

First sum applied the Newton's second law motion: F = ma
Force = mass* acceleration
This motion define force as the product of mass times Acceleration (vs.Velocity). Since acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time,
force=(mass*velocity)/time
such that, (mass*velocity)/time=momentum/time
Therefore we get mass*velocity=momentum
Momentum=mass*velocity
Elephant mass=6300 kg; velocity=0.11 m/s
Momentum=6300*0.11
P=693 kg (m/s)
Dolphin mass=50 kg; velocity=10.4 m/s
Momentum=50*10.4
P=520 kg (m/s)
The elephant has more momentum(P) because it is large.

The change in temperature is 9.52°CExplanation:Since, the heat supplied by the electric kettle is totally used to increase the temperature of the water.Thus, from the law of conservation of energy can be stated as:Heat Supplied by Electric Kettle = Heat Absorbed by WaterHeat Supplied by Electric Kettle = m C ΔTwhere,Heat Supplied by Electric Kettle = 20,000 JMass of water = m = 0.5 kgSpecific Heat Capacity of Water = C = 4200 J/kg.°CChange in Temperature of Water = ΔTTherefore,20,000 J = (0.5 kg)(4200 J/kg.°C) ΔTΔT = 20,000 J/(2100 J/°C)ΔT = 9.52°C
