Consider a long rod of mass, m, and length, l, which is thin enough that its width can be ignored compared to its length. The ro

ehidna [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The rod will act as pendulum for small oscillation .

Time period of oscillation

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$

angular frequency ω = 2π / T

= $\omega=\sqrt{\frac{g}{l} }$

b )

ω = 20( given )

velocity = ω r = ω l

Let the maximum angular displacement in terms of degree be θ .

1/2 m v ² = mgl ( 1 - cosθ ) ,

[ l-lcosθ is loss of height . we have applied law of conservation of mechanical energy .]

.5 ( ω l )² = gl( 1 - cos θ )

.5 ω² l = g ( 1 - cosθ )

1 - cosθ = .5 ω² l /g

cosθ = 1 - .5 ω² l /g

θ can be calculated , if value of l is given .

*A car is going through a dip in the road whose curvature approximates a circle of radius 150m. At what velocity will the occupa

Valentin [98]

Answer:

v= 14.85 m/s

Explanation:

When at the bottom of the dip, the only force that keeps the car in the circular trajectory, is the centripetal force.
This force is not a new force, is just the net force aiming to the center of the circle.
In this case, is just the difference between the normal force (always perpendicular to the surface, pointing upward) and the force that gravity exerts on the car (which is known as the weight), pointing downward.
So, we can write the following expression:

$F_{cent} = F_{n} - F_{g} (1)$

It can be showed that the centripetal force is related to the speed by the following expression:
$F_{cent} = m*\frac{v^{2}}{r} (2)$

The normal force, it is called the apparent weight, because it would be the weight as measured by a scale.
Replacing (2) in (1), and solving for Fn, we get:

$F_{n} = m*\frac{v^{2} }{r} + m*g (3)$

Now, we need to find the value of v that makes Fn, exactly 15% more than the weight m*g, so we can write the following equation:

$F_{n} = 1.15*F_{g} = m*\frac{v^{2}}{r} +F_{g} (4)$

Replacing Fg by its value, simplifying, and solving for v, we get:

$v = \sqrt{0.15*g*r} = \sqrt{9.8 m/s2*0.15*150m} = 14.85 m/s (5)$

Examine the symbols below:

iris [78.8K]

Answer: Symbol A

Explanation:

The four symbols described here represent:

- Symbol A shows two dots and a line draw from one not connected to the other. --> this is an open switch. A switch is component of a circuit that is used to open/close the circuit in order to interrupt/allow the flow of current through the circuit. In this case, the switch is open, since the line does not connect the second dot.

- Symbol B shows two dots and a line draw from one connected to the other. --> this is the symbol used to represent the switch when it is closed, so it is a closed switch.

- Symbol C shows vertical lines in the pattern long, short, long, and short with a plus and minus symbol on it. --> this symbol represents a battery, which consists of two or more cells and provides the electromotive force that pushes the electrons along the circuit.

Therefore, the correct symbol representing the open switch is

Symbol A

Friction would inhibit your speed and maximum work potential so, friction is the answer.
