Explanation:
to solve this problem we must make a free body diagram, with the forces acting on the metal rod.
i)
The center of gravity of the rod is concentrated in half the distance, that is, from the end of the bar to the center there is 40 [cm]. This can be seen in the attached free body diagram.
We have only two equilibrium equations, a summation of forces on the Y-axis equal to zero, and a summation of moments on any point equal to zero.
For the summation of forces we will take the forces upwards as positive and the negative forces downwards.
ΣF = 0
Now we perform a sum of moments equal to zero around the point of attachment of the string with the metal bar. Let's take as a positive the moment of the force that rotates the metal bar counterclockwise.
ii) In the free body diagram we can see that the force acts at 18 [cm] of the string.
ΣM = 0
Answer: 288.8 m
Explanation:
We have the following data:
is the time it takes to the child to reach the bottom of the slope
is the initial velocity (the child started from rest)
is the angle of the slope
is the length of the slope
Now, the Force exerted on the sled along the ramp is:
(1)
Where is the mass of the sled and
its acceleration
In addition, if we draw a free body diagram of this sled, the force along the ramp will be:
(2)
Where is the acceleration due gravity
Then:
(3)
Finding :
(4)
(5)
(6)
Now, we will use the following kinematic equations to find :
(7)
(8)
Where is the final velocity
Finding from (7):
(9)
(10)
Substituting (10) in (8):
(11)
Finding :
