Water drips from the nozzle of a shower onto the floor below. The drops fall at regular (equal) intervals of time, the first drop striking the floor at the instant the fourth drop begins to fall. When the first drop strikes the floor, how far below the nozzle are the (a) second and (c) third drops?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) Distance of the second drop from the nozzle is 0.889m .

b) Distance of the third drop from the nozzle is 0.222 .

Step by step solution

01

Given data

Given

g=-9.8m/s2, in the downward direction.

The distance between nozzle and floor,y=-2.0m.

02

Understanding the concept

Four drops are leaving the nozzle simultaneously with an equal interval of time. The time of each second and third drop reaching the ground can be determined by the kinematic equation that is mentioned below.

The kinematic equation that can be used to solve this problem is,

y=Vit+12at2 (i)

03

Determining the time the drops leave the nozzle simultaneously

By using the kinematics equation given in equation (i),

Let鈥檚 assume t1 is the time taken by drop to drop on the floor.

-2m=0-12at12t1=2y9.8=0.639s

After 0.639 s drop will drop on the floor.

The time intervals between all the drops are same.

Between those 4 drops there are three equal intervals of time.

Therefore,

t=0.6393=0.213s

Time of second drop leaving the nozzle after the first drop is 0.213 s.

Time of third drop leaving the nozzle after the second drop is 0.213 s.

Time of second drop and nozzle when first drop falls on the floor is,

t2=0.693-0.426=0.213s

Time of third drop and nozzle when first drop falls on floor is,

t3=0.693-0.426=0.213s

04

(a) Determination of the distance second drop from the nozzle

To calculate the distance of the second drop from the nozzle, use the time taken by the second drop to fall on the ground. The time is 0.426 s . Therefore,

y=v1t+0.5at2y2=0.5-9.80.4262=-0.889m

Therefore, the second drop is 0.889 m below the nozzle.

05

(b) Determination of the distance third drop from the nozzle

Similarly, to calculate the distance of the third drop from the nozzle, use the time taken by the third drop to fall on the ground. The time is 0.213 s . Therefore,

y=v1t+0.5at2y3=0.5-9.80.2132=-0.222m

Therefore, third drop is 0.222 m below the nozzle.

Figure 2-45 shows a simple device for measuring your reaction time. It consists of a cardboard strip marked with a scale and two large dots. A friend holds the strip vertically, with thumb and forefinger at the dot on the right in Fig. 2-45. You then position your thumb and forefinger at the other dot (on the left in Fig. 2-45), being careful not to touch the strip. Your friend releases the strip, and you try to pinch it as soon as possible after you see it begin to fall. The mark at the place where you pinch the strip gives your reaction time. (a) How far from the lower dot should you place the 50.0 m smark? How much higher should you place the marks for (b) 100, (c) 150, (d) 200, and (e) 250 ms? (For example, should the 100 msmarker be 2 times as far from the dot as the 50msmarker? If so, give an answer of 2 times. Can you find any pattern in the answers?
