An Atwoods machine (Fig. 4.38) consists of two masses: one of mass 3.00 kg and the other of mass 8.00 kg. When released from rest, what is the acceleration of the system?
Squids are the fastest marine invertebrates, using a powerful set of muscles to take in and then eject water in a form of jet propulsion that can propel them to speeds of over 11.5 m/s. What speed (in m/s) would a stationary 1.40 kg squid achieve by ejecting 0.110 kg of water (not included in the squid's mass) at 3.75 m/s? Neglect other forces, including the drag force on the squid. m/
Squids are the fastest marine invertebrates, using a powerful set of muscles to take in and then eject water in a form of jet propulsion that can propel them to speeds of over 11.5 m/s.What speed (in m/s) would a stationary 1.20 kg squid achieve by ejecting 0.115 kg of water (not included in the squid's mass) at 3.00 m/s? Neglect other forces, including the drag force on the squid.
16) A rocket of initial mass 1000 kg adjusts its thrust by varying the rate of mass ejection. The ejection speed relative to the rocket is 40 km / s. If the acceleration of the rocket must have a magnitude of 20 m / s2 at an instant when its mass is 80% of the original mass, at what rate is it being ejected at this instant? Ignore any forces external to the rocket. Answers: a) 0.40 kg/s b) 0.50 kg/s c) 0.60 kg/s d) 0.70 kg/s e) 0.80 kg/s
