Answer:

(A) -2940 J

(B) 392 J

(C) 212.33 N

Explanation:

mass of bear (m) = 25 kg

height of the pole (h) = 12 m

speed (v) = 5.6 m/s

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s

(A) change in gravitational potential energy (ΔU) = mg(height at the bottom- height at the top)

height at the bottom = 0

         = 25 x 9.8 x (0-12) = -2940 J

(B) kinetic energy of the Bear (KE) = 0.5mv^{2}

           = 0.5 x 25 x 5.6^{2}  = 392 J

(C) average frictional force = \frac{change in thermal energy}{height} = \frac{-(ΔKE+ΔU)}{h}

  • change in KE (ΔKE) = initial KE - final KE
  • ΔKE = 0.5mv^{2} - 0.5mvf^{2}            
  • when the Bear reaches the bottom of the pole, the final velocity (Vf) is 0, therefore the change in kinetic energy becomes  ΔKE = 0.5x25x5.6^{2} - 0 = 392 J

 \frac{-(ΔKE+ΔU)}{h}[/tex] = \frac{-(392 + (-2940))}{12}

=  \frac{(-392 + 2940)}{12} = 212.33 N

A student wearing a frictionless roller skates on a horizontal is pushed by a friend with a constant force of 55N. How far must
umka21 [38]

Answer:

6.58m

Explanation:

The kinetic energy = Workdone on the roller

Workdone = Force * distance

Given

KE = Workdone = 362J

Force = 55N

Required

Distance

Substitute into the formula;

Workdone = Force * distance

362 = 55d

d = 362/55

d = 6.58m

Hence the student must push at a distance of 6.58m

A chef places an open sack of flour on a kitchen scale. The scale reading of
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial reading on scale =40 N

So, we can conclude that weight of the sack is 40 N

After this a 10 N force is applied upward on the sack such that the net force becomes (40-10) N downward (because downward force is more)

This net downward force is the resultant of earth graviational pull and the applied upward force.

So, this downward force acts on the machine which inturn applies an upaward force of same magnitude called Normal reaction.

This situation can be diagramatically represented by figure given below

Rashid [163]

Answer:

M= F^n / a+g

Explanation:

This shows correctly Newton’s second law, where sum of forces is divided by mass is equal to acceleration. Also mass can’t be negative so F^n is positive.
