The force needed to accelerate an elevator upward at a rate of is 2000 N or 2 kN.
<u>Explanation: </u>
As per Newton's second law of motion, an object's acceleration is directly proportional to the external unbalanced force acting on it and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
As the object given here is an elevator with mass 1000 kg and the acceleration is given as , the force needed to accelerate it can be obtained by taking the product of mass and acceleration.
So 2000 N or 2 kN amount of force is needed to accelerate the elevator upward at a rate of .
Answer:
6.86 m/s
Explanation:
This problem can be solved by doing the total energy balance, i.e:
initial (KE + PE) = final (KE + PE). { KE = Kinetic Energy and PE = Potential Energy}
Since the rod comes to a halt at the topmost position, the KE final is 0. Therefore, all the KE initial is changed to PE, i.e, ΔKE = ΔPE.
Now, at the initial position (the rod hanging vertically down), the bottom-most end is given a velocity of v0. The initial angular velocity(ω) of the rod is given by ω = v/r , where v is the velocity of a particle on the rod and r is the distance of this particle from the axis.
Now, taking v = v0 and r = length of the rod(L), we get ω = v0/ 0.8 rad/s
The rotational KE of the rod is given by KE = 0.5Iω², where I is the moment of inertia of the rod about the axis of rotation and this is given by I = 1/3mL², where L is the length of the rod. Therefore, KE = 1/2ω²1/3mL² = 1/6ω²mL². Also, ω = v0/L, hence KE = 1/6m(v0)²
This KE is equal to the change in PE of the rod. Since the rod is uniform, the center of mass of the rod is at its center and is therefore at a distane of L/2 from the axis of rotation in the downward direction and at the final position, it is at a distance of L/2 in the upward direction. Hence ΔPE = mgL/2 + mgL/2 = mgL. (g = 9.8 m/s²)
Now, 1/6m(v0)² = mgL ⇒ v0 =
Hence, v0 = 6.86 m/s
