- You are on the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction in the Magic kingdom at Disney World. Your boat rules through a pirate battle, in which cannons on a ship and in a fort are firing at each other. While you are aware that the splashes in the water do not represent actual cannonballs, you begin to wonder about such battles in the days of the pirates. Suppose the fort and the ship are separated by 75.0 m. You sec that the cannons in the fort are aimed so that their cannonballs would be fired horizontally from a height of 7.00 m above the water. (a) You wonder at what speed they must be fired in order to hit the ship before falling in the water. (b) Then, you think about the sludge that must build up inside the barrel of a cannon. This sludge should slow down the cannonballs. A question occurs in your mind: if the cannonballs can be fired at only 50.0% of the speed found earlier, is it possible to fire them upward at some angle to the horizontal so that they would reach the ship?arrow_forwardA black aluminum glider floats on a film of air above a level aluminum air track. Aluminum feels essentially no force in a magnetic field, and air resistance is negligible. A strong magnet is attached to the top of the glider, forming a total mass of 240 g. A piece of scrap iron attached to one end stop on the track attracts the magnet with a force of 0.823 N when the iron and the magnet are separated by 2.50 cm. (a) Find the acceleration of the glider at this instant. (b) The scrap iron is now attached to another green glider, forming total mass 120 g. Find the acceleration of each glider when the gliders are simultaneously released at 2.50-cm separation.arrow_forwardO ur TO uptraivIT VI an njetT CI Constants In an inkjet printer, letters and images are created by squirting drops of ink horizontally at a sheet of paper from a rapidly moving nozzle The pattern on the paper is controlled by an electrostatic valve that determines at each nozzle position whether ink is squirted onto the The ink drops have a mass m = 1.00x10 11 kg each and leave the nozzle and travel horizontally toward the paper at velocity v = 19.0 m/s The drops pass through a charging unit that gives each drop a positive charge q by causing it to lose some electrons. The drops then pass between parallel deflecting plates of Jength Do = 2.15 cm where there is a uniform vertical electric field with magnitude E = 8. 40×104 N/C (Figure 1) paper or not. Part A If a drop is to be deflected a distance d = 0.250 mm by the time it reaches the end of the deflection plate, what magnitude of charge q must be given to the drop? Assume that the density of the ink drop is 1000 kg/m and ignore the…arrow_forward
