A block (mass = 61.2 kg) is hanging from a massless cord that is wrapped around a pulley (moment of inertia = 1/2MR2 kg · m2, wh

ere M = 14.2 kg is the mass of the pulley and R=1.5 m is its radius ), as the drawing shows. Initially the pulley is prevented from rotating and the block is stationary. Then, the pulley is allowed to rotate as the block falls. The cord does not slip relative to the pulley as the block falls. Assume that the radius of the cord around the pulley remains constant at a value of r=R=1.5 m during the block's descent, and the distance of the block at initial position to the floor is 8.0 m. What is the angular velocity in round per minute when the block drops to the floor? Use g = 10 m/s2.

Answer:

The angular velocity is  w = 53.35 \ rounds /minute

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of the block is  m = 61.2kg

     The of the pulley is  M = 14.2 kg

      The radius of the pulley is  R = 1.5m

       The radius  of the cord around the pulley is  r = 1.5 m

       The distance of the block to the floor is  d = 8.0 m

         

From the question we are told that the moment of inertia of the pulley is

          I  = \frac{1}{2} MR^2 kg \cdot m^2

Substituting value  

         I = \frac{1}{2}  * 14.2 * (1.5)^2

         I = 15.975 kg \cdot m^2

Using the Newtons law we can express the force acting on the vertical axis as

              ma = mg -T

         =>  T = mg -ma

Now when the pulley is rotated that  torque generated on the massless cord as a r result of the tension T and the radius of the cord around the pulley is mathematically represented as

                  \tau = I \alpha

     Here \alpha is the angular acceleration

           Here \tau is the torque which can be equivalent to

              \tau = T r

  Substituting this above

            Tr = I \alpha      

Substituting for T

         (mg - ma ) r =  I\  r \alpha

Here a is the  linear acceleration which is mathematically represented as

           a = r\alpha

    (mg - m(r\alpha ) ) r =  I\  r \alpha

     mgr = I\alpha  + m(r\alpha ) r

    mgr = \alpha  [ I + mr^2]

   making \alpha the subject

          \alpha  = \frac{mgr}{I -mr ^2}          

   Substituting values

            \alpha  = \frac{61.2 * 1.5 * 9.8}{15.975 + (61.2 ) * (1.5)^2}

             \alpha =5.854 rad /s^2

Now substituting into the equation above to obtain the acceleration

             a = 5.854 * 1.5

                a=8.78 m/s^2

This acceleration is a = \frac{v}{t}

and v is the linear velocity with is mathematically represented as

         v = \frac{d}{t}

Substituting this into the formula acceleration

        a = \frac{d}{t^2}

making t the subject

         t = \sqrt{\frac{d}{a} }

substituting value

      t = \sqrt{\frac{8}{8.78}}

     t = 0.9545 \ s

Now the linear velocity is

       v = \frac{8}{0.9545}

       v = 8.38 m/s

The angular velocity is  

       w = \frac{v}{r}

So

       w = \frac{8.38}{1.5}

        w = 5.59 rad/s

Generally 1 radian is equal to  0.159155 rounds or turns

        So  5.59 radian is  equal to x

Now x is mathematically obtained as

         x = \frac{5.59 * 0.159155}{1}

            = 0.8892 \ rounds

 Also

      60  second =  1 minute

So   1 second  = z      

Now z is mathematically obtained as

         z = \frac{ 1}{60}

            z = 0.01667 \ minute

Therefore

              w = \frac{0.8892}{0.01667}

              w = 53.35 \ rounds /minute

At 15°C air is transmitted <br>at 340 m/s. Express this speed<br>in Kilometers per hour.​
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

1224km/hr

Explanation:

To convert from m/s to km/hr

1000m = 1km

Divide both sides by 1000

1m = 1/1000 km................. (1)

60×60 seconds = 1 hr

3600s = 1hr

Divide both sides by 3600

1s = 1/3600 .............(2)

Divide (2) by (1)

1m/s =  1/1000 ÷ 1/3600 km/hr

1m/s = 1/1000 × 3600/1  km/hr

1m/s = 3600/1000  km/hr

1m/s = 3.6 km/hr .............(3)

To convert 340m/s to km/hr

Multiply (3) by 340

1× 340m/s = 3.6 × 340 km/hr

340m/s = 1224km/hr

pav-90 [236]

Firstly, we need to make the times and distance equal to compare.

1hr=60mins
Gonz drove 90km in 60mins,so they would drive 45km in 30 mins dividing it by 2.
Because the Rivs had gone 30km in 30mins, Gonz were faster.

For the adverage speed, we should first add the speed of each family in mph , so 90+60, which equals 150 and divide that by 2 because there are 2 speeds so the average speed is 75mph.

P.S English is my second language so tell me if you don't understand something and I will try and explain.

If you place a paper clip very close to a magnet, the paper clip
Alik [6]
The answer is “D. all of the above”!

Metal from the paper clip is attracted to the magnet, so it will naturally move toward and stick to the magnet. This will cause the paper clip to temporarily become a magnet for other metals. I hope this helped!
