Certainly, let's solve the questions from the image you provided.

21. A bullet of mass 0.01 kg is fired from a gun with a velocity of 300 m/s and emerges
out with a velocity of 100 m/s. Calculate the average resistance offered by the plank to
the motion of the bullet if the thickness of the plank is 0.05 m?
Answer:
Given: Mass of the bullet, m = 0.01 kg Initial velocity of the bullet, u = 300 m/s Final velocity of
the bullet, v = 100 m/s Thickness of the plank, s = 0.05 m
Average resistance offered by the plank:
We can use the work-energy theorem to solve this problem. The work done by the resistance
force is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the bullet.
Work done by resistance = Change in kinetic energy
F * s = 1/2 m (v^2 - u^2)
Where F is the average resistance force.
Substituting the values, we get:
F * 0.05 = 1/2 * 0.01 * (100^2 - 300^2)
Solving for F, we get:
F ≈ -800 N
Therefore, the average resistance offered by the plank to the motion of the bullet is 800 N (in
the opposite direction of the bullet's motion).
22. A water tank is measuring 32 m^3 at an average height of 10 m above ground level.
What must be the power of the engine working at the tank in order to fill it in 100
minutes? (Efficiency of the engine is 80% and density of water is 1000 kg/m^3).
Answer:
Given: Volume of the tank, V = 32 m^3 Average height of the tank, h = 10 m Time taken to fill
the tank, t = 100 minutes = 6000 s Efficiency of the engine, η = 80% = 0.8 Density of water, ρ =
1000 kg/m^3
Power of the engine:
First, we need to calculate the work done in filling the tank. This work is equal to the potential
energy gained by the water.
Work done = Potential energy of water = mgh
Where m is the mass of the water.
The mass of the water can be calculated as:
m = ρV
Substituting the values, we get:
Work done = 1000 kg/m^3 * 32 m^3 * 9.8 m/s^2 * 10 m = 3136000 J
Now, we can calculate the power required to do this work in the given time:
Power = Work done / Time taken
Power = 3136000 J / 6000 s = 522.67 W
However, this is the ideal power required. Since the engine has an efficiency of 80%, the actual
power required will be:
Actual power = Ideal power / Efficiency
Actual power = 522.67 W / 0.8 ≈ 653.34 W
Therefore, the power of the engine working at the tank must be approximately 653.34 W.
23. The angular speed of a motor wheel is increased from 1200 rpm to 3120 rpm in 16
seconds. Find:
(i) Angular acceleration
(ii) Number of revolutions the wheel makes during this time
Answer:
Given: Initial angular speed, ω₁ = 1200 rpm = 1200 * 2π/60 rad/s = 40π rad/s Final angular
speed, ω₂ = 3120 rpm = 3120 * 2π/60 rad/s = 104π rad/s Time taken, t = 16 s
(i) Angular acceleration:
Using the formula for angular acceleration:
α = (ω₂ - ω₁) / t
α = (104π - 40π) / 16 α = 4π rad/s^2
Therefore, the angular acceleration of the wheel is 4π rad/s^2.
(ii) Number of revolutions:
The number of revolutions can be calculated using the formula:
θ = ω₁t + 1/2 αt^2
Where θ is the angular displacement in radians.
Substituting the values, we get:
θ = 40π * 16 + 1/2 * 4π * 16^2 θ ≈ 1280π radians
To convert radians to revolutions, we divide by 2π:
Number of revolutions = θ / 2π ≈ 1280π / 2π ≈ 640 revolutions
Therefore, the wheel makes 640 revolutions during this time.
24. Find the acceleration due to gravity at a height of 16 km above the Earth's surface
and at a depth of 12.8 km below the Earth's surface (R = 6400 km, g = 9.8 m/s^2, G = 6.67
x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2).
Answer:
Given: Height above the Earth's surface, h = 16 km = 16000 m Depth below the Earth's surface,
d = 12.8 km = 12800 m Radius of the Earth, R = 6400 km = 6400000 m Acceleration due to
gravity at the Earth's surface, g = 9.8 m/s^2 Gravitational constant, G = 6.67 x 10^-11
Nm^2/kg^2
Acceleration due to gravity at a height h:
g' = g(R / (R + h))^2
g' = 9.8 * (6400000 / (6400000 + 16000))^2 g' ≈ 9.77 m/s^2
Acceleration due to gravity at a depth d:
g' = g(1 - d/R)
g' = 9.8 * (1 - 12800 / 6400000) g' ≈ 9.74 m/s^2
Therefore, the acceleration due to gravity at a height of 16 km above the Earth's surface is
approximately 9.77 m/s^2, and at a depth of 12.8 km below the Earth's surface is approximately
9.74 m/s^2.
25. Calculate the orbital velocity and period of revolution of a satellite of the Earth
moving at an altitude of 200 km. (R = 6400 km, M = 6 x 10^24 kg, g = 9.8 m/s^2)
Answer:
Given: Altitude of the satellite, h = 200 km = 200000 m Radius of the Earth, R = 6400 km =
6400000 m Mass of the Earth, M = 6 x 10^24 kg Acceleration due to gravity at the Earth's
surface, g = 9.8 m/s^2
Orbital velocity:
The orbital velocity of a satellite is given by:
v = √(GM / (R + h))
Substituting the values, we get:
v = √((6.67 x 10^-11 * 6 x 10^24) / (6400000 + 200000)) v ≈ 7790 m/s
Therefore, the orbital velocity of the satellite is approximately 7790 m/s.
Period of revolution:
The period of revolution of a satellite is given by:
T = 2π(R + h) / v
Substituting the values, we get:
T = 2π(6400000 + 200000) / 7790 T ≈ 5370 s
Therefore, the period of revolution of the satellite is approximately 5370 seconds.
I hope this helps!
