Answer:

2.5 m/s

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is the sum of the potential and kinetic energy.

E = PE + KE

E = mgh + ½mv²

172.1 J = (7.26 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (2.1 m) + ½ (7.26 kg) v²

v = 2.5 m/s

Answer:

Train accaleration = 0.70 m/s^2

Explanation:

We have a pendulum (presumably simple in nature) in an accelerating train. As the train accelerates, the pendulum is going move in the opposite direction due to inertia. The force which causes this movement has the same accaleration as that of the train. This is the basis for the problem.

Start by setting up a free body diagram of all the forces in play: The gravitational force on the pendulum (mg), the force caused by the pendulum's inertial resistance to the train(F_i), and the resulting force of tension caused by the other two forces (F_r).

Next, set up your sum of forces equations/relationships. Note that the sum of vertical forces (y-direction) balance out and equal 0. While the horizontal forces add up to the total mass of the pendulum times it's accaleration; which, again, equals the train's accaleration.

After doing this, I would isolate the resulting force in the sum of vertical forces, substitute it into the horizontal force equation, and solve for the acceleration. The problem should reduce to show that the acceleration is proportional to the gravity times the tangent of the angle it makes.

I've attached my work, comment with any questions.

Side note: If you take this end result and solve for the angle, you'll see that no matter how fast the train accelerates, the pendulum will never reach a full 90°!

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 3.33 times a second. A tack is stuck in the tire a
Troyanec [42]

Answer: 6.47m/s

Explanation:

The tangential speed can be defined in terms of linear speed. The linear speed is the distance traveled with respect to time taken. The tangential speed is basically, the linear speed across a circular path.

The time taken for 1 revolution is, 1/3.33 = 0.30s

velocity of the wheel = d/t

Since d is not given, we find d by using formula for the circumference of a circle. 2πr. Thus, V = 2πr/t

V = 2π * 0.309 / 0.3

V = 1.94/0.3

V = 6.47m/s

The tangential speed of the tack is 6.47m/s
