During the collision of a big truck with a small passenger carGroup of answer choicesthe force from the truck on the car is alwa
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

The force from the truck on the car is always equal to the force from the car on the truck.

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law; action and reaction are equal and opposite. Hence, when the big truck and small passenger car are involved in a collision, we expect that the force from the truck on the car is always equal to the force from the car on the truck. The forces on the car and the truck are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.

This follows directly from Newton's third law of motion hence the answer above.

If the magnitude of the moment of F about line CD is 57 N·m, determine the magnitude of F.If the magnitude of the moment of F ab
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

F_ab = 260.17 N

Explanation:

Given:

- Moment of force F about CD, (M)_cd = 57 Nm

Find:

- First we will write down the position vectors of points A, B , C , D:

- We will take left and bottom most corner of cube to be the origin.

- The unit vectors i , j , k are along vertical planes and outside the plane, respectively.

- The position vectors wrt to the origin are:

                             Point A = 0.2 k

                             Point B = 0.4 i + 0.2 j

                             Point C = 0.2 j + 0.4 k

                             Point D = 0.4 i + 0.4 k

- Now we will determine the Force vector F_ab along vector AB.

                             vec (AB) = B - A = 0.4 i + 0.2 j - 0.2 k

                             unit (AB) = 0.4 i + 0.2 j - 0.2 k  / sqrt ( 0.4^2 + 2*0.2^2)

                                            = [5 / sqrt(6)] * ( 0.4 i + 0.2 j - 0.2 k )

Hence,

                              vec(F_ab) = Fab*[5 / sqrt(6)] * ( 0.4 i + 0.2 j - 0.2 k )

- Now, form a unit vector along the line CD:

                             vec(CD) = D - C = 0.4 i - 0.2 j

                             unit (CD) = 0.4 i - 0.2 j / sqrt ( 0.4^2 + 0.2^2)

                                           = [sqrt(5)]*(0.4 i - 0.2 j)

- Now select a point on line CD, lets say C. Find the moment arm from line of action of force along AB and line CD. Hence, vector AC is:

                               vec(AC) =r_ac = C - A = 0.2 j + 0.2 k

- Now the moment about a line CD due to force is:

                              (M)_cd = unit(CD) . ( r_ac x vec(F_ab) )

The cross product of r_ac and vec(F_ab) is as follows:

                               (M)_c =  ( r_ac x vec(F_ab) ) :

                                \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\0&0.2&0.2\\0.8165&0.40824&-0.40824\end{array}\right]

                              (M)_c =  F_ab[- sqrt(6)/15 i + sqrt(6)/15 j - sqrt(6)/15 k]

The dot product of (M)_c and unit (CD)  is as follows:

                              (M)_cd = unit(CD) . (M)_c :

 (M)_cd = F_ab[- sqrt(6)/15 i + sqrt(6)/15 j - sqrt(6)/15 k] .  [sqrt(5)]*(0.4 i - 0.2 j)

                              (M)_cd = F_ab*(sqrt(30) / 25)

- The given magnitude of the moment is (M)_cd. Calculate F_ab:

                               57 = F_ab*(sqrt(30) / 25)  

                              F_ab = 260.17 N

A 220 g mass is on a frictionless horizontal surface at the end of a spring that has force constant of 7.0
Talja [164]

The concept of conservation of energy and harmonic motion allows to find the result for the power where the kinetic and potential energy are equal is:

        x = 0.135 cm

Given parameters

  • The mass m = 220 g = 0.220 kg
  • The spring cosntnate3 k = 7.0 N / m
  • Initial displacement A = 5.2 cm = 5.2 10-2 m

To find

  • The position where the kinetic and potential energy are equal

 

A simple harmonic movement is a movement where the restoring force is proportional to the displacement, the result of this movement is described by the expression.

          x = A cos wt + fi

          w² = \frac{k}{m}

Where x is the displacement from the equilibrium position, A the initial amplitude of the system, w the angular velocity t the time, fi a phase constant determined by the initial conditions, k the spring constant and m the mass.

The speed is defined by the variation of the position with respect to time.

       v = \frac{dx}{dt}

let's evaluate

       v = - A w sin (wt + Ф)

Since the body releases for a time t = 0 the velocity is zero, therefore the expression remains.

       0 = - A w sin Ф

For the equality to be correct, the sine function must be zero, this implies that the phase constant is zero

        x = A cos wt

Let's find the point where the kinetic and potential energy are equal.

        K = U

        ½ m v² = m g x

       

we substitute

        ½ A² w² sin² wt = g A cos wt

        sin² wt = \frac{2g}{A}  cos wt

let's calculate

      w = \sqrt{\frac{7}{0.220} }  

      w = 5.64 rad / s

      sin² 5.64t = 2 9.8 / 0.052 cos 5.64t

      sin² 5.64t = 376.92 cos 5.64 t

      1 - cos² 5.64t = 376.92 cos 5.64t

      cos² 5.64t -376.92 cos564t -1 = 0

we make the change of variable

       x = cos 5.64t

      x²- 376.92 x - 1 = 0

      x = 0.026

      cos 5.64t = 0.026

   

Let's find the displacement for this time

       x = 5.2 10-2 0.026

       x = 1.35 10-3 m

In conclusion Using the concepts of conservation of energy and harmonic motion we can find the result for the could where the kientic and potential enegies are equal is:

        x = 0.135 cm
