A 10 kg monkey climbs up a massless rope that runs over a frictionless tree limb and back down to a 15 kg package on the ground.

(a) What is the magnitude of the least acceleration the monk"y must have if it is to lift the package off the ground? If, after the package has been lifted, the monkey stops its climb and holds onto the rope, what are the (b) magnitude and (c) direction of the monkey's acceleration and (d) the tension in the rope?

Answer:

A. 4,9 m/s2

B. 2,0 m/s2

C. 120 N

Explanation:

In the image, 1 is going to represent the monkey and 2 is going to be the package.  Let a_mín be the minimum acceleration that the monkey should have in the upward direction, so the package is barely lifted. Apply Newton’s second law of motion:

\sum F_y=m_1*a_m_i_n = T-m_1*g

If the package is barely lifted, that means that T=m_2*g; then:

\sum F_y =m_1*a_m_i_n=m_2*g-m_1*g

Solving the equation for a_mín, we have:

a_m_i_n=((m_2-m_1)/m_1)*g = ((15kg-10kg)/10kg)*9,8 m/s^2 =4,9 m/s^2

Once the monkey stops its climb and holds onto the rope, we set the equation of Newton’s second law as it follows:

For the monkey: \sum F_y = m_1*a \rightarrow T-m_1*g=m_1*a

For the package: \sum F_y = m_2*a \rightarrow m_2*g - T = m_2*a

The acceleration a is the same for both monkey and package, but have opposite directions, this means that when the monkey accelerates upwards, the package does it downwards and vice versa. Therefore, the acceleration a on the equation for the package is negative; however, if we invert the signs on the sum of forces, it has the same effect. To be clearer:

For the package: \sum F_y = -m_2*a \rightarrow T-m2*g=-m_2*a \rightarrow m_2*g -T=m_2 *a

We have two unknowns and two equations, so we can proceed. We can match both tensions and have:

m_1*a+m_1*g=m_2*g-m_2*a

Solving a, we have

(m_1+m_2)*a =(m_2 - m1)*g\\\\a=((m_2-m_1)/(m_1+m_2))*g \rightarrow a=((15kg-10kg)/(10kg+15kg))*9,8 m/s^2\\\\a= 2,0 m/s^2

We can then replace this value of a in one for the sums of force and find the tension T:

T = m_1*a+m_1*g \rightarrow T=m_1*(a+g)\\\\T = 10kg*(2,0 m/s^2+9,8 m/s^2) \\\\T = 120 N

The doppler effect is when objects are not moving?<br><br> True <br><br> False
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

reviewing the statement we can say that it is FALSE

Explanation:

The Doppler effect is the change in the perceived frequency of a sound wave by the RELATIVE MOTION of the source and the observer.

This effect is very useful for finding the speed of an object.

When reviewing the statement we can say that it is FALSE

The acceleration due to gravity, g , is constant at sea level on the Earth's surface. However, the acceleration decreases as an
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

  g    = g₀   [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

Explanation:

The law of universal gravitation is

        F = G m Me / Re²

Where g is the universal gravitational constant, m and Me are the mass of the body and the Earth, respectively and R is the distance between them

      F = G Me /Re²  m

We call gravity acceleration a

       g₀ = G Me / Re².

When the body is at a height h above the surface the distance is

            R = Re + h

Therefore  the attractive force is

      F = G Me m / (Re + h)²

Let's take Re's common factor

      F = G Me / Re²  m / (1+ h / Re)²

As Re has a value of 6.37 10⁶ m and the height of the body in general is less than 10⁴ m, the h / Re term is very small, so we can perform a series expansion

         (1+ h / Re)⁻² = 1 -2 h / Re + 6/2 (h / Re) 2 + ...

Let's replace

       F = G Me /Re²   m [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

       F = g₀   m  [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

If we call the force of attraction at height

     m g =g₀ m  [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

       g    = g₀   [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

Find the density of seawater at a depth where the pressure is 500 atm if the density at the surface is 1100 kg/m^3 . Seawater ha
mixer [17]

The density of seawater at a depth where the pressure is 500 atm is 1124kg/m^3

Explanation:

The relationship between bulk modulus and pressure is the following:

B=\rho_0 \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta \rho}

where

B is the bulk modulus

\rho_0 is the density at surface

\Delta p is the variation of pressure

\Delta \rho is the variation of density

In this problem, we have:

B=2.3\cdot 10^9 N/m^2 is the bulk modulus

\rho_0 =1100 kg/m^3

\Delta p = p-p_0 = 500 atm - 1 atm = 499 atm = 5.05\cdot 10^7 Pa is the change in pressure with respect to the surface (the pressure at the surface is 1 atm)

Therefore, we can find the density of the water where the pressure is 500 atm as follows:

\rho = \rho_0 + \Delta \rho = \rho_0+\frac{\rho_0 \Delta p}{B}=\rho_0 (1+\frac{\Delta p}{B})=(1100)(1+\frac{5.05\cdot 10^7}{2.3\cdot 10^9})=1124kg/m^3

Which of the following is true about light?
ale4655 [162]
Light travels in waves AND in bundles called "photons".

It's hard to imagine something that's a wave and also a bundle.
But it turns out that light behaves like both waves and bundles.

If you design an experiment to detect waves, then it responds to light.

And if you design an experiment to detect 'bundles' or particles, then
that one also responds to light.
