A puck is sliding around a circular track that is banked at an angle with respect to the horizontal such that no friction betwee

n the puck and the track is required to keep the puck from slipping up or down the track. If the puck is moving at a speed 31.9 m/s and the radius of the track is 421 m, determine θ .

Answer:

θ = 14.27°

Explanation:

The only force acting on the puck is the gravitational force. Since the track is banked with an angle θ, we have to separate the components of the weight.

For the sake of simplicity, I will denote the perpendicular direction to the truck as the y-direction, and the direction along the radius as the x-direction.

So, the free-body diagram of the puck is as follows:

1- x-component of the weight of the puck: mgsinθ

2- y-component of the weight of the puck: mgcosθ

3- Normal force in the y-direction perpendicular to the track.

Since there is no motion on the y-direction, normal force is equal to the y-component of the weight of the puck.

The x-component of the weight of the puck is equal to the centripetal force according to Newton's Second Law:

F = ma\\mg\sin{\theta} = \frac{mv^2}{R}\\\sin{\theta} = \frac{v^2}{gR}

Substituting the variables given in the question, the angle of the track can be found:

\sin{\theta} = \frac{(31.9)^2}{(9.8)(421)} = 0.2466\\\theta = 14.27^\circ

Aneli [31]

Answer:

h=2.86m

Explanation:

In order to give a quick response to this exercise we will use the equations of conservation of kinetic and potential energy, the equation is given by,

\Delta PE_i + \Delta KE_i = \Delta PE_f +\Delta KE_f

There is no kinetic energy in the initial state, nor potential energy in the end,

mgh+0=0+KE_f

In the final kinetic energy, the energy contributed by the Inertia must be considered, as well,

mgh = (\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2)

The inertia of the bodies is given by the equation,

I=\frac{m(R_1^2+R^2_2)}{2}

I=\frac{2(0.2^2+0.1^2)}{2}

I=0.05Kgm^2

On the other hand the angular velocity is given by

\omega =\frac{v}{R_2}=\frac{4}{1/5} = 2rad/s

Replacing these values in the equation,

(0.5)(9.8)(h) =\frac{1}{2}*0.5*4^2+\frac{1}{2}*0.05*20^2

Solving for h,

h=2.86m

a)  order of refraction is a, e, de, c , c) a f g

Explanation:

a) when lightning is refracted it must comply with the law of refraction

          .n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sinθ₂

          sin θ / sin δδa) when lightning is refracted it must comply with the law of refraction

          .n1 sin θ₁ = n2 sin θ ₂

          Sint θ1 / sin θ2 = n2 / n1

1 we see that the ray deviation is promotional to the ratio of the refractive indices

The order of refraction is a, e, de, c

.b) When a ray passes from a medium with less indicated refraction to a higher index the part of the reflected ray has a phase change of 180º

a) no phase change

b) reflected ray has a phase change of 180º

c) no phase change

d) no phase change

e) there is a phase change

f) these phase changeo

First, you will investigate purely vertical motion. The kinematics equation for vertical motion (ignoring air resistance) is giv
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

2.85 s .

Explanation:

y(t) = y(0) + v₀t + 1/2 gt²

y(t) is vertical displacement , y(0) is initial position , v₀ is initial velocity and t is time required to make vertical displacement and g is acceleration due to gravity.

Here  y(0) is zero , v₀ = 14 m/s , g = 9.8 m s⁻² , y(t ) = 0 , as the pumpkin after time t comes back to its initial position, that is ground .

We shall take v₀ as negative as it is in upward direction and g as positive as it acts in downward direction

Put the values in the equation above,

0 = 0 - 14t + 1/2 x 9.8 t²

14 t = 1/2 x 9.8 t²

t = 28 / 9.8

t = 2.85 s .
