Explanation:

A uniform-density 7 kg disk of radius 0.20 m is mounted on a nearly frictionless axle. Initially it is not spinning. A string is wrapped tightly around the disk, and you pull on the string with a constant force of 42 N through a distance of 0.9 m. Now what is the angular speed

Answers

Answer:

The angular speed is 23.24 rad/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the disk, m = 7 kg

radius of the disk, r = 0.2 m

applied force, F = 42 N

distance moved by disk, d = 0.9 m

The torque experienced by the disk is calculated as follows;

τ = F x d = I x α

where;

I is the moment of inertia of the disk = ¹/₂mr²

α is the angular acceleration

F x r = ¹/₂mr² x α

The angular acceleration is calculated as;

[tex]\alpha = \frac{2Fr}{mr^2} \\\\\ \alpha = \frac{2F}{mr}\\\\\alpha = \frac{2 \times 42 }{7 \times 0.2} \\\\\alpha = 60 \ rad/s^2[/tex]

The angular speed is determined by applying the following kinematic equation;

[tex]\omega _f^2 = \omega_i ^2 + 2\alpha \theta[/tex]

initial angular speed, ωi = 0

angular distance, θ = d/r = 0.9/0.2 = 4.5 rad

[tex]\omega _f^2 = 2\alpha \theta\\\\\omega _f = \sqrt{2\alpha \theta} \\\\\omega _f = \sqrt{2 \times 60 \times 4.5} \\\\\omega _f = 23.24 \ rad/s[/tex]

Therefore, the angular speed is 23.24 rad/s.

Explanation:

A hook in boxing primarily involves horizontal flexion of the shoulder while maintaining a constant angle at the elbow. During this punch, the horizontal flexor muscles of the shoulder contract and shorten at an average speed of 75 cm/s. They move through an arc length of 5 cm during the hook, while the fist moves through an arc length of 100 cm. What is the average speed of the fist during the hook

Answers

Answer:

average speed of the fist during the hook = 15 m/s or 1500 cm/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Speed of shoulder contraction, v_s = 75 cm/s = 0.75 m/s

Distance moved through the arc length by shoulder, d_s = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Distance moved by the fist, d_f = 100 cm = 1 m

Now, we are to find the average speed of the fist during the hook; v_f

Thus can be gotten from proportion;.

d_f/d_s = v_f/ v_s

Making V_f the subject, we have;

v_f = (d_f × v_s)/d_s

Thus;

v_f = (1 × 0.75)/0.05

v_f = 0.75/0.05

v_f = 15 m/s

Two resistors have resistances R1 and R2. When the resistors are connected in series to a 12.6-V battery, the current from the battery is 2.07 A. When the resistors are connected in parallel to the battery, the total current from the battery is 8.98 A. Determine R1 and R2. (Enter your answers from smallest to largest.)

Answers

Answer:

When R1 = 2.193, R2 = 3.894

When R1 = 3.894, R2 = 2.193

Explanation:

We are told that when R1 and R2 are connected in series, the voltage is 12.6 V and the current is 2.07 A.

Formula for resistance is;

R = V/I

R = 12.6/2.07

R = 6.087 ohms

Since R1 and R2 are connected in series.

Thus; R1 + R2 = 6.087 ohms

R1 = 6.087 - R2

We are also told that when they are connected in parallel, the current is 8.98 A.

Thus, R = 12/8.98

R = 1.403 ohms

Thus;

(1/R1) + (1/R2) = 1/1.403

Let's put 6.087 - R2 for R1;

(1/(6.087 - R2)) + (1/R2) = 1/1.403

Multiply through by 1.403R2(6.087 - R2) to get;

1.403R2 + 1.403(6.087 - R2) = R2(6.087 - R2)

Expanding gives;

1.403R2 + 8.54 - 1.403R2 = 6.087R2 - (R2)²

(R2)² - 6.087R2 + 8.54 = 0

Using quadratic formula, we have;

R2 = 2.193 ohms or 3.894 ohms

Thus,

R1 = 6.087 - 2.193 or R1 = 6.087 - 3.894

R1 = 3.894 or 2.193

When R1 = 2.193, R2 = 3.894

When R1 = 3.894, R2 = 2.193

What is thermal expansion?

The expansion of any material due to the variation of the temperature is known as thermal expansion. It varied differently for different materials according to their corresponding values of the coefficient of the thermal expansion.

As given in the problem statement that an inventor makes a clock using a brass rod and a heavy mass as a pendulum, when the clock gets colder then the length of the brass decreases due to thermal expansion.

The length of the pendulum gets reduced which further results in the reduction in the time period, as per the formula of the time period for the pendulum

T = 2π√(L/g)

As the length of the brass gets reduced. This means the pendulum of the clock moves faster and the clock would gain time

Thus, if a  pendulum made of a heavy mass and a brass rod is used to create a clock by an inventor. The time clock would advance in time as the clock get colder

A ball is sitting at the top of a ramp. As the ball rolls down the ramp, the potential energy of the ball decreases, what happens to the potential energy as the ball moves

Answers

Answer:

the potential energy decreases as it is converted to kinetic energy.

Explanation:

As things move, their potential energy converts to kinetic energy to power them along. When a ball rolls down the top of a ramp, all the potential energy it accumulated at the top of the ramp converts to kinetic energy to help it roll down. In other words, its potential energy decreases as its kinetic energy increases.

A 41.0-kg crate, starting from rest, is pulled across level floor with a constant horizontal force of 135 N. For the first 15.0 m the floor is essentially frictionless, whereas for the next 12.0 m the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.320. (a) Calculate the work done by all the forces acting on the crate, during the entire 27.0 m path. (b) Calculate the total work done by all the forces. (c) Calculate the final speed of the crate after being pulled these 27.0 m.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the information given;

mass of the crate m = 41 kg

constant horizontal force = 135 N

where;

[tex]s_1 = 15.0 \ m \\ \\ s_2 = 12.0 \ m[/tex]

coefficient of kinetic friction [tex]u_k[/tex] = 0.28

a)

To start with the work done by the applied force [tex](W_f)[/tex]

[tex]W_F = F\times (s_1 +s_2) \times cos(0) \ J[/tex]

[tex]W_F = 135 \times (12 +15) \times cos(0) \ J \\ \\ W_F = (135 \times 37 )J \\ \\ W_F =4995 \ J[/tex]

Work done by friction:

[tex]W_{ff} = -\mu\_k\times m \times g \times s_2 \\ \\ W_{ff} = -0.320 \times 41 \times 9.81 \times 12 \ J \\ \\ W_{ff} = -1544.49 \ J[/tex]

Work done  by gravity:

[tex]W_g = mg \times (s_1+s_2) \times cos (90)} \ J \\ \\ W_g = 0 \ j[/tex]

Work done by normal force;

[tex]W_n = N \times (s_1 + s_2) \times cos (90) \ J[/tex]

[tex]W_n = 0 \ J[/tex]

b)

total work by all forces:

[tex]W = F \times (s_1 + s_2) + \mu_k \times m \times g \times s_2 \times 180 \\ \\ W = 135 \times (15+12) \ J - 0.320 \times 41 \times 9.81 \times 12[/tex]

W = 2100.5  J

c) By applying the work-energy theorem;

total work done = ΔK.E

[tex]W = \dfrac{1}{2}\times m \times (v^2 - u^2)[/tex]

[tex]2100.5 = 0.5 \times 41 \times v^2[/tex]

[tex]v^2 = \dfrac{2100.5}{ 0.5 \times 41 }[/tex]

[tex]v^2 = 102.46 \\ \\ v = \sqrt{102.46} \\ \\ \mathbf{v = 10.1 \ m/s}[/tex]

A 64.0-kg person holding two 0.900-kg bricks stands on a 2.00-kg skateboard. Initially, the skateboard and the person are at rest. The person now throws the two bricks at the same time so that their speed relative to the person is 19.0 m/s. What is the recoil speed of the person and the skateboard relative to the ground, assuming the skateboard moves without friction?

Answers

Answer:

0.518 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this question, we would use the Law of conservation of momentum.

It is stated that the skateboard and the person were at rest initially, this means that their initial momentum is 0. Since they aren't moving.

And from the law if conservation of momentum, we know that initial momentum must be equal to final momentum.

The final momentum of the bricks will be 2* 0.9 * 19 = 34.2 kg m/s.

This means that the momentum of the person and that of the skateboard has to be 34.2 kg m/s also, although, it will be in the opposite direction.

Mass of the person plus that of the skateboard is

64 + 2 = 66 kg,

If we divide the momentum of the person and that of the skateboard by the mass of the both of them, we get the speed at which they are moving after the bricks are thrown

Recoil speed = (34.2 kg m/s)/(66 kg) = 0.518 m/s.

The recoil speed of the person is 0.518 m/s

Calculation of the recoil speed of the person:

As per the conservation of momentum, the initial momentum should be equivalent to the final momentum

So, here the final momentum should be

=  2* 0.9 * 19

= 34.2 kg m/s.

Now the mass of the person should be

= 64 + 2

= 66 kg,

Now the recoil speed should be

Recoil speed = (34.2 kg m/s)/(66 kg)

= 0.518 m/s.

[tex]\lambda[/tex] = Wavelength

m = Order

Distance between slits is given by

[tex]\theta=\sin^{-1}\dfrac{1\times 700\times 10^{-9}}{10^{-6}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=44.43^{\circ}[/tex]

m = 2

[tex]\theta=\sin^{-1}\dfrac{2\times 700\times 10^{-9}}{10^{-6}}[/tex]

Here [tex]\dfrac{2\times 700\times 10^{-9}}{10^{-6}}=1.4>1[/tex] so there is no second order angle for this case.
