Two identical blocks are attached to the same massless rope, which is strung around two massless, frictionless pulleys. A massle

ss scale is connected to the same rope and measures the tension in the rope. The two identical blocks are released from the rest. The experiment is then repeated with two new blocks, with masses m1 and m2. When they are released from rest, the system remains at rest, and the scale measures the same tension as in the previous experiment. Find m1 and m2 in terms of m.

Answer:

The value of mass 1, m1= 6/5m

The value of mass 2, m2= 3/5m

Explanation:

case 1:

here tension and the acceleration will be:

for m1;

  • mg-T=ma
  • 2mg - 2T = 2ma  .....1.

for m2:

  • 2T-mg = ma/2 ..... 2.

adding the both equations,

2mg - 2T + 2T-mg = 2ma + ma/2

a = 2/5 g

putting the value of a into the equation 1.

mg - T = m* (2/5)g

T = 3/5 ( mg )

now

case 2:

The two identical blocks are released from the rest, the tension remains the same as the case 1.

so,

for m1:

  • 2T-m2g=0

for m2:

  • 2m2g - 2T =0

adding both equations we get,

2T-m2g + 2m2g - 2T = 0

m2 = m1 / 2

T = m1*g / 2

here we know that

T (case1) = T (case2)

3/5 ( mg ) = m1*g / 2

m1 = 6/5 m

hence

m2 = 3/5 m

What does scientific theory mean​
olchik [2.2K]
A scientific theory is an explanation of an aspect of the natural world that can be repeatedly tested and verified in accordance with the scientific method, using accepted protocols of observation, measurement, and evaluation of results. Where possible, theories are tested under controlled conditions in an experiment.

Two satellites are in circular orbits around a planet that has radius 9.00x10^6 m. One satellite has mass 53.0 kg , orbital radi
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The orbital speed of this second satellite is 5195.16 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Orbital radius of first satellite r_{1}= 8.20\times10^{7}

Orbital radius of second satellite r_{2}=7.00\times10^{7}\ m

Mass of first satellite m_{1}=53.0\ kg

Mass of second satellite m_{2}=54.0\ kg

Orbital speed of first satellite = 4800 m/s

We need to calculate the orbital speed of this second satellite

Using formula of orbital speed

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}

From this relation,

v_{1}\propto\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{r}}

Now, \dfrac{v_{1}}{v_{2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{r_{2}}{r_{1}}}

v_{2}=v_{1}\times\sqrt{\dfrac{r_{1}}{r_{2}}}

Put the value into the formula

v_{2}=4800\times\sqrt{\dfrac{ 8.20\times10^{7}}{7.00\times10^{7}}}

v_{2}=5195.16\ m/s

Hence, The orbital speed of this second satellite is 5195.16 m/s.

The efficiency of a modern bicycle is 95% if you exert 200 Joules of input work pedaling a bicycle on level ground what is the u
Delvig [45]

Answer:

95 J

Explanation:

You can calculate efficiency by dividing useful output by total input, then multiplying it to 100.

So the foumula goes like:

Efficiency= (Useful output/Total input)x100

In this question,

Efficiency= 95%

Useful output= x

Total input= 200

Therefore;

95=(x/200)x100

0.95=x/100

x=0.95x100

x=95 Joules

What is the correct formula for power? A. Power = work / time B. Power = work * time C. Power = force * distance D. Power = work
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

A. Power = Work / Time

Explanation:

Power is the amount of work done over time, or rather the rate of work, which is given by the unit of watts (W). Since work is defined by Force * Displacement, we can also say Power = Force * Displacement / Time.
