Answer:

a) τnet = 3.1392 N-m

b) L = (0.48 Kg-m)*v

c) a = 6.54 m/s²

Explanation:

Given

m = 4 Kg

R = 8 cm = 0.08 m

M = 2 Kg

a) τnet = ?

b) L = ?

c)  a = ?

Solution

a) We use the formula

τnet = R*m*g*Sin 90°

τnet = 0.08 m*4 Kg*9.81 m/s²*(1)

τnet = 3.1392 N-m

b) We apply the equation

L= R*m*v + R*M*v = R*(m + M)*v

then

L = (0.08 m)*(4 Kg + 2 Kg)*v = (0.48 Kg-m)*v

c) We use the relation

τ = dL/dt = d((0.48 Kg-m)*v)/dt = (0.48 Kg-m)*dv/dt

τ = (0.48 Kg-m)*a

then

τ/(0.48 Kg-m) = a

⇒   a = 3.1392 N-m/((0.48 Kg-m)

a = 6.54 m/s²

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of counterweight m= 4kg

Radius of spool cylinder

R = 8cm = 0.08m

Mass of spool

M = 2kg

The system about the axle of the pulley is under the torque applied by the cord. At rest, the tension in the cord is balanced by the counterweight T = mg. If we choose the rotation axle towards a certain ~z, we should have:

Then we have,

τ(net) = R~ × T~

τ(net) = R~•i × mg•j

τ(net) = Rmg• k

τ(net) = 0.08 ×4 × 9.81

τ(net) = 3.139 Nm •k

The magnitude of the net torque is 3.139Nm

b. Taking into account rotation of the pulley and translation of the counterweight, the total angular momentum of the system is:

L~ = R~ × m~v + I~ω

L = mRv + MR v

L = (m + M)Rv

L = (4 + 2) × 0.08

L = 0.48 Kg.m

C. τ =dL/dt

mgR = (M + m)R dv/ dt

mgR = (M + m)R • a

a =mg/(m + M)

a =(4 × 9.81)/(4+2)

a = 6.54 m/s

A body oscillates with simple harmonic motion along the x-axis. Its displacement varies with time according to the equation x =
abruzzese [7]
I'll tell you how I look at this, although I may be missing something important.

Position = x(t) = 0.5 sin(pt + p/3)

Speed = position' = x'(t) = 0.5 p cos(pt + p/3)

Acceleration = speed' = position ' ' = x ' '(t) = -0.5 p² sin(pt + p/3)

At (t = 1.0),

x ' '(t) = -0.5 p² sin( 4/3 p )

In order to evaluate this, don't I still have to know what 'p' is ? ?

I don't think it can be evaluated with the information given in the question.

Snell's Law: Light traveling through water comes to a glass surface at an angle of incidence of
Lerok [7]

Answer:

1. The best definition of refraction is ____.

a. passing through a boundary

b. bouncing off a boundary

c. changing speed at a boundary

d. changing direction when crossing a boundary

 

Answer: D

Bouncing off a boundary (choice b) is reflection. Refraction involves passing through a boundary (choice a) and changing speed (choice c); however, a light ray can exhibit both of these behaviors without undergoing refraction (for instance, if it approaches the boundary along the normal). Refraction of light must involve a change in direction; the path must be altered at the boundary.

Explanation:

This is a problem of momentum (
