A cylinder of mass mm is free to slide in a vertical tube. The kinetic friction force between the cylinder and the walls of the

tube has magnitude ff. You attach the upper end of a lightweight vertical spring of force constant kk to the cap at the top of the tube, and attach the lower end of the spring to the top of the cylinder. Initially the cylinder is at rest and the spring is relaxed. You then release the cylinder. What vertical distance will the cylinder descend before it comes momentarily to rest? Express your answer in terms of the variables mmm, fff, and constants ggg, kkk.

Answer:

y = \frac{-f +/- \sqrt{f^{2} +2kmg}}{k}

Explanation:

Let y₀ be the initial position of the cylinder when the spring is attached and y its position when it is momentarily at rest.From work-kinetic energy principles,  The work done by the spring force + work done by friction + work done by gravity = kinetic energy change of the cylinder

work done by the spring force = ¹/₂k(y₀² - y²)

work done by friction = - f(y - y₀)

work done by gravity = mg(y - y₀)

kinetic energy change of the cylinder = ¹/₂m(v₁² - v₀²)

So ¹/₂k(y₀² - y²) - f(y - y₀) + mg(y - y₀) = ¹/₂m(v₁² - v₀²)

Since the cylinder starts at rest, v₀ = 0. Also, when it is momentarily at rest, v₁ = 0

¹/₂k(y₀² - y²) - f(y - y₀) + mg(y - y₀) = ¹/₂m(0² - 0²)

¹/₂k(y₀² - y²) - f(y - y₀) + mg(y - y₀) = 0

¹/₂ky₀² + fy₀ - mgy₀ -¹/₂ky² - fy + mgy = 0

¹/₂ky₀² + fy₀ - mgy₀ = ¹/₂ky² + fy - mgy

Let y₀ = 0, then the left hand side of the equation equals zero. So,

0 = ¹/₂ky² + fy - mgy

¹/₂ky² + fy - mgy = 0

Using the quadratic formula

y = \frac{-f +/- \sqrt{f^{2} - 4 X\frac{k}{2} X -mg}}{2 X \frac{k}{2} }\\ y = \frac{-f +/- \sqrt{f^{2} +2kmg}}{k}

In a shipping yard, a crane operator attaches a cable to a 1,400 kg shipping container and then uses the crane to lift the conta
Molodets [167]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of crane m=1400\ kg

distance moved d=40\ m

Since it is moving with a constant velocity therefore net force on it is zero

Tension force=weight

T=mg

Work done by Tension T is

W_T=T\cdot d

W_T=1400\times 9.8\cdot 40

W_T=548.8\ KJ

Work done by Gravity will be equal in magnitude but opposite in sign and can be obtained by work energy theorem which states that change in kinetic energy of object is equal to work done by all the forces

W_T+W_g=0

W_g=-548.8\ KJ

assume the suns total energy output is 4.0 * 10^26 watts, and 1 watt is 1 joule/second. assume 4.3 * 10^-12 J is released from e
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

9.3\cdot 10^{37}

Explanation:

Power is defined as the energy produced (E) per unit of time (t):

P= \frac{E}{t}

This means that the energy produced in the Sun each second (1 s), given the power P=4.0\cdot 10^{26}W, is

E=Pt=(4.0\cdot 10^{26}W)(1s )=4.0\cdot 10^{26} J

Each p-p chain reaction produces an amount of energy of

E_1 = 4.3\cdot 10^{-12} J

in order to get the total number of p-p chain reactions per second, we need to divide the total energy produced per second by the energy produced by each reaction:

n=\frac{E}{E_1}=\frac{4.0\cdot 10^{26} J}{4.3\cdot 10^{-12} J}=9.3\cdot 10^{37}
