Answer:

When a an object is been rotated its resistance capacity to that rotational force is know as rotational inertia  and this mathematically given as

          I = mr^2

   Where m is the mass

                r is the rotation radius

For the spinning of the lamp as a baton to work the location of the center of mass of the floor lamp needs to be located

This is more likely to be located closer to base of the lamp as compared to the top, so success of spinning a floor lamp like a baton is highly likely if the lamp is grabbed closer to the base because that is where the position of its center of mass is likely to be.

An observer standing near a window 5 m high observe that an object falling downwards is passing across the window in 0.5 s. Find
Valentin [98]

Answer:

Explanation:

An object in free fall, NOT experiencing parabolic motion, has an equation of

h(t)=\frac{1}{2} gt^2+h_0 which says:

The height of an object with respect to time in seconds is equal to the pull of gravity times time-squared plus the height from which it was dropped. Normally we use -9.8 for gravity but you said to use 10, so be it.

For us, h(t) is 5 because we are looking for the height of the window when the object is 5 m off the ground at .5 seconds;

g = 10 m/s/s, and

t = .5sec

5=\frac{1}{2}(-10)(.5)^2+h and

5 = -5(.5)² + h and

5 = -5(.25) + h and

5 = -1.25 + h so

h = 6.25

That's how high the window is above the ground.

What is the maximum value the string tension can have before the can slips? The coefficient of static friction between the can a
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

T= 38.38 N

Explanation:

Here

mass of can = m = 3 kg

g= 9.8 m/sec2

angle θ = 40°

From figure we see the vertical and horizontal component of tension force T

If the can is to slip - then horizontal component of tension force should become equal to force of friction.

First we find force of friction

Fs= μ R

where

μ = 0.76

R = weight of can = mg = 3 × 9.8 = 29.4 N

Now horizontal component of tension

Tx= T cos 40 = T× 0.7660  N

==>T× 0.7660 = 29.4

==> T= 38.38 N
