1 A 75-g ball is projected from a height of 1.6 m with a horizontal velocity of 2 m/s and bounces from a 400-g smooth plate supp
Tanzania [10]

Answer with explanation:

We are given that  

Mass of ball,m_1=75 g=\frac{75}{1000}=0075kg

1 kg=1000 g

Height,h_1=1.6 m

h_2=0.6 m

Horizontal velocity,v_x=2 m/s

Mass of platem_2=400 g=\frac{400}{1000}=0.4 kg

a.Initial velocity of plate,u_2=0

Velocity before impact=u_1=\sqrt{2gh_1}=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1.6}=5.6m/s

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Velocity after impact,v_1=\sqrt{2gh_2}=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 0.6}=3.4m/s

According to law of conservation of momentum  

m_1u_1+m_2u_1=-m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Substitute the values  

0.075\times 5.6+0=-0.075\times 3.4+0.4v_2

0.4v_2=0.075\times 5.6+0.075\times 3.4

v_2=\frac{0.075\times 5.6+0.075\times 3.4}{0.4}=1.69 m/s

Velocity of plate=1.69 m/s

b.Initial energy=\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2_x+m_1gh_1=\frac{1}{2}(0.075)(2^2)+0.075\times 9.8\times 1.6=1.326 J

Final energy=\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2_x+m_1gh_2+\frac{1}{2}m_2v^2_2

Final energy=\frac{1}{2}(0.075)(2^2)+0.075\times 9.8\times 0.6+\frac{1}{2}(0.4)(1.69)^2=1.162 J

Energy lost due to compact=Initial energy-final energy=1.326-1.162=0.164 J

Rotation of the lever OA is controlled by the motion of the contacting circular disk of radius r = 300 mm whose center is given
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The angular velocity is

5.64rad/s

Explanation:

This problem bothers on curvilinear motion

The angular velocity is defined as the rate of change of angular displacement it is expressed in rad/s

We know that the velocity v is given as

v= ωr

Where ω is the angular velocity

r is 300mm to meter = 0.3m

the radius of the circle

described by the level

v=1.64m/s

Making ω subject of the formula and solving we have

ω=v/r

ω=1.64/0.3

ω=5.46 rad/s

A 1.53-kg bucket hangs on a rope wrapped around a pulley of mass 7.07 kg and radius 66 cm. This pulley is frictionless in its ax
levacccp [35]

Answer:

\alpha = 6.431\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}

Explanation:

The pulley is modelled by the Newton's Laws, whose equation of equilibrium is:

\Sigma M = T \cdot R = \frac{1}{2}\cdot M \cdot R^{2}\cdot \alpha

Given that tension is equal to the weight of the bucket, the angular acceleration experimented by the pulley is:

T = \frac{1}{2}\cdot M \cdot R \cdot \alpha

m_{b}\cdot g = \frac{1}{2}\cdot M \cdot R \cdot \alpha

\alpha = \frac{2\cdot m_{b}\cdot g}{M\cdot R}

\alpha = \frac{2\cdot (1.53\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}{(7.07\,kg)\cdot (0.66\,m)}

\alpha = 6.431\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}

Four +2 μC charges are placed at the positions (10 cm, 0 cm), (−10 cm, 0 cm), (0 cm, 10 cm), and (0 cm, −10 cm) such that they f
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The force on the charge at the origin is 0 N .

Explanation:

All charges are positive. So, in x axis force exerted by the charge located in the position (10 cm, 0 cm) will be canceled with the force exerted by the charge located in the position (-10 cm, 0 cm). In the same way, in y axis the force exerted by the charge located in the position (0 cm, 10 cm) will be canceled with the force exerted by the charge located in the position (0 cm, -10 cm).
