A snowball is rolling down a hill at 4.5 m/s and accumulating snow as it goes. Its diameter begins at 0.50 m and ends at the bot
Reil [10]
To find the change in centripetal acceleration, you should first look for the centripetal acceleration at the top of the hill and at the bottom of the hill.

The formula for centripetal acceleration is:
Centripetal Acceleration = v squared divided by r

where:
v = velocity, m/s
r= radium, m

assuming the velocity does not change:

at the top of the hill:
centripetal acceleration = (4.5 m/s^2) divided by 0.25 m
                                      = 81 m/s^2

at the bottom of the hill:
centripetal acceleration = (4.5 m/s^2) divided by 1.25 m
                                      = 16.2 m/s^2

to find the change in centripetal acceleration, take the difference of the two.
change in centripetal acceleration = centripetal acceleration at the top of the hill - centripetal acceleration at the bottom of the hill

= 81 m/s^2 - 16.2 m/s^2
= 64.8 m/s^2 or 65 m/s^2

A 0.5 m diameter wagon wheel consists of a thin rim having a mass of 7 kg and six spokes, each with a mass of 1.2 kg. 1.2 kg 7 k
Arte-miy333 [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the rim of wheel, m₁ = 7 kg

Mass of one spoke, m₂ = 1.2 kg

Diameter of the wagon, d = 0.5 m

Radius of the wagon, r = 0.25 m

Let I is the the moment of inertia of the wagon wheel for rotation about its axis.

We know that the moment of inertia of the ring is given by :

I_1=m_1r^2

I_1=7\times (0.25)^2=0.437\ kgm^2

The moment of inertia of the rod about one end is given by :

I_2=\dfrac{m_2l^2}{3}

l = r

I_2=\dfrac{m_2r^2}{3}

I_2=\dfrac{1.2\times (0.25)^2}{3}=0.025\ kgm^2

For 6 spokes, I_2=0.025\times 6=0.15\ kgm^2

So, the net moment of inertia of the wagon is :

I=I_1+I_2

I=0.437+0.15=0.587\ kgm^2

So, the moment of inertia of the wagon wheel for rotation about its axis is 0.587\ kgm^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

Assuming a vertical trajectory with no drag, derive the applicable form of the rocket equation for this application
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The vertical trajectory is governed by Ordinary Differential Equation.

Time derivatives of each state variables.

d(d)/dt = v, d(m)/dt = -d(m-fuel)/dt, d(v)/dt = F/m.

Where V is velocity positive upwards, t is time, m is mass, m-fuel is fuel mass, F is Total force, positive upwards.

Therefore,

F = -mg - D + T, If V is positive and

F = -mg + D - T, If T is negative.

D is drag and the questions gave it as zero.

Explanation:

The two sign cases in derivative equations above are required because F is defined positive up, so the drag D and thrust T can subtract or add to F depending in the sign of V . In contrast, the gravity force contribution mg is always negative. In general, F will be some function of time, and may also depend on the characteristics of the particular rocket. For example, the T component of F will become zero after all the fuel is expended, after which point the rocket will be ballistic, with only the gravity force and the aerodynamic drag force being p

In the design of a rapid transit system, it is necessary to balance the average speed of a train against the distance between st
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

a) t = 746 s

b) t = 666 s

Explanation:

a)

  • Total time will be the sum of the partial times between stations plus the time stopped at the stations.
  • Due to the distance between stations is the same, and the time between stations must be the same (Because the train starts from rest in each station) we can find total time, finding the time for any of the distance between two stations, and then multiply it times the number of distances.
  • At any station, the train starts from rest, and then accelerates at 1.1m/s2 till it reaches to a speed of 95 km/h.
  • In order to simplify things, let's first to convert this speed from km/h to m/s, as follows:

       v_{1} = 95 km/h *\frac{1h}{3600s}*\frac{1000m}{1 km} = 26.4 m/s  (1)

  • Applying the definition of acceleration, we can find the time traveled by the train before reaching to this speed, as follows:

       t_{1} = \frac{v_{1} }{a_{1} } = \frac{26.4m/s}{1.1m/s2} = 24 s (2)

  • Next, we can find the distance traveled during this time, assuming that the acceleration is constant, using the following kinematic equation:

       x_{1} = \frac{1}{2} *a_{1} *t_{1} ^{2} = \frac{1}{2} * 1.1m/s2*(24s)^{2} = 316.8 m  (3)

  • In the same way, we can find the time needed to reach to a complete stop at the next station, applying the definition of acceleration, as follows:

       t_{3} = \frac{-v_{1} }{a_{2} } = \frac{-26.4m/s}{-2.2m/s2} = 12 s (4)

  • We can find the distance traveled while the train was decelerating as follows:

       x_{3} = (v_{1} * t_{3})   + \frac{1}{2} *a_{2} *t_{3} ^{2} \\ = (26.4m/s*12s) - \frac{1}{2} * 2.2m/s2*(12s)^{2} = 316.8 m - 158.4 m = 158.4m  (5)

  • Finally, we need to know the time traveled at constant speed.
  • So, we need to find first the distance traveled at the constant speed of 26.4m/s.
  • This distance is just the total distance between stations (3.0 km) minus the distance used for acceleration (x₁) and the distance for deceleration (x₃), as follows:
  • x₂ = L - (x₁+x₃) = 3000 m - (316.8 m + 158.4 m) = 2525 m (6)
  • The time traveled at constant speed (t₂), can be found from the definition of average velocity, as follows:

       t_{2} = \frac{x_{2} }{v_{1} } = \frac{2525m}{26.4m/s} = 95.6 s   (7)

  • Total time between two stations is simply the sum of the three times we have just found:
  • t = t₁ +t₂+t₃ = 24 s + 95.6 s + 12 s = 131.6 s (8)
  • Due to we have six stations (including those at the ends) the total time traveled while the train was moving, is just t times 5, as follows:
  • tm = t*5 = 131.6 * 5 = 658.2 s (9)
  • Since we know that the train was stopped at each intermediate station for 22s, and we have 4 intermediate stops, we need to add to total time 22s * 4 = 88 s, as follows:
  • Ttotal = tm + 88 s = 658.2 s + 88 s = 746 s (10)

b)

  • Using all the same premises that for a) we know that the only  difference, in order to find the time between stations, will be due to the time traveled at constant speed, because the distance traveled at a constant speed will be different.
  • Since t₁ and t₃ will be the same, x₁ and x₃, will be the same too.
  • We can find the distance traveled at constant speed, rewriting (6) as follows:
  • x₂ = L - (x₁+x₃) = 5000 m - (316.8 m + 158.4 m) = 4525 m (11)
  • The time traveled at constant speed (t₂), can be found from the definition of average velocity, as follows:

       t_{2} = \frac{x_{2} }{v_{1} } = \frac{4525m}{26.4m/s} = 171.4 s   (12)

  • Total time between two stations is simply the sum of the three times we have just found:
  • t = t₁ +t₂+t₃ = 24 s + 171.4 s + 12 s = 207.4 s (13)
  • Due to we have four stations (including those at the ends) the total time traveled while the train was moving, is just t times 3, as follows:
  • tm = t*3 = 207.4 * 3 = 622.2 s (14)
  • Since we know that the train was stopped at each intermediate station for 22s, and we have 2 intermediate stops, we need to add to total time 22s * 2 = 44 s, as follows:
  • Ttotal = tm + 44 s = 622.2 s + 44 s = 666 s (15)
