Velocity is the rate of change in distance over change in time, this can be written as:

v = Δd / Δt

While acceleration is the rate of change in velocity over change in time, this is written as:

a = Δv / Δt

Both quantities are vector quantities because negative values means that the acceleration or velocity is acting on the opposite direction.

The wheels of a wagon can be approximated as the combination of a thin outer hoop, of radius ????h=0.209 m and mass 4.32 kg , an

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

r= 98.3 mm

Explanation:

For rim

R= 0.209 m

M= 4.32 kg

For rods

m= 7.37 kg

L= 2 R= 2 x 0.209 = 0.418 m

The Total moment of inertia of the wagon

I=MR²+2 x 1/12 m L²

Now by putting the values

$I=4.32\times 0.209^2+2\times \dfrac{1}{12}\times 7.73\times 0.418^2\ kg.m^2$

I=0.413 kg.m²

For disk:

t= 0.0462 m

Density ρ = 5990 kg/m³

Lets take r is the radius of disk

So the mass of the disc

m'=ρ πr² t

The moment of inertia of disc

I'=1/2 m'r²

I'=1/2 x r² x ρ πr² t

Given that

I = I'

1/2 x r² x ρ πr² t = 0.413 kg.m²

1/2 x r³ x ρ π t = 0.413

r³ x ρ π t = 0.826

$r^3=\dfrac{0.826}{\pi \times 5990 \times 0.0462}$

r³=0.00095

r=0.0983 m

r= 98.3 mm

What is the minimum force require to move a 5kg wooden crate on a wooden floor?

kolbaska11 [484]

You need to know the coefficient of static friction between a wooden object and a wooden surface. I'll denote it with µ. If you're given a specific value you should obviously use that.

By Newton's second law, the horizontal and vertical net forces are

• net horizontal:

∑ F = p - f = 0

• net vertical:

∑ F = n - w = 0

where

p = magnitude of the pushing force

f = mag. of friction

n = mag. of the normal force

w = weight of the crate

The second equation gives

n = w = (5 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = 49 N

Friction is proportional to the normal force by a factor of µ, so

f = µ (49 N) = 49µ N

To overcome static friction, the push has to exceed this in magnitude, so that

p > 49µ N

For instance, if p = 0.25, then p would need to greater than 12.25 N. (This example isn't particularly helpful, though, since both possibly correct options are larger than 12.25 N...)
