Answer:
40N
Explanation:
Since both weights are connected to one string, you can say that the tensions above each are equal to each other.
If you do the sum of forces for the 4kg mass, then the tension comes out to 40N (if we take gravity to be 10m/s²). But that seemed too good to be true, so I decided to do the work for the 7kg mass as well [which included finding the normal force (N) and plugging it into the sum of forces for the 7kg mass] to find that it also gives 40N as the answer.
If I were to put my process into steps:
- Write out the sum of Forces for both masses
- Set them equal to each other to find normal force (because this is the only unknown)
- Calculate and compare the two tensions to see if they are equal
*This all seems to line up perfectly, but do let me know if my answer doesn't match up with what you might find to he the answer later on.
Answer:
W = 1884J
Explanation:
This question is incomplete. The original question was:
<em>Consider a motor that exerts a constant torque of 25.0 N.m to a horizontal platform whose moment of inertia is 50.0kg.m^2 . Assume that the platform is initially at rest and the torque is applied for 12.0rotations . Neglect friction.
</em>
<em>
How much work W does the motor do on the platform during this process? Enter your answer in joules to four significant figures.</em>
The amount of work done by the motor is given by:


Where I = 50kg.m^2 and ωo = rad/s. We need to calculate ωf.
By using kinematics:

But we don't have the acceleration yet. So, we have to calculate it by making a sum of torque:

=> 
Now we can calculate the final velocity:

Finally, we calculate the total work:

Since the question asked to "<em>Enter your answer in joules to four significant figures.</em>":
W = 1884J
Accuracy describes how close a measurement is to the truest value while precision shows how close the measurements are to one another when repeated analysis of the same measurements are performed. Precision most likely is free from any any variation.
