A solid wood door 1.00 m wide and 2.00 m high is hinged along one side and has a total mass of 40.0 kg. Initially open and at re
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The final angular speed is 0.223 rad/s

Explanation:

By the conservation of angular moment:

ΔL=0

L₁=L₂

L₁ is the initial angular moment

L₂ is the final angular moment

L₁ is given by:

L_1=L_{door} + L_{mud}

As the door is at rest its angular moment is zero and the angular moment of mud can be considered as a point object, then:

L_1= L_{mud}= mvr

where

r is the distance from the support point to the axis of rotation (the mud hits at the center of the door; r=0.5 m)

v is the speed

m is the mass of the mud

L₂ is given by:

L_2= (I_{door} + I_{mud}) \omega_f

ωf is the final angular speed

The moment of inertia of the door can be considered as a rectangular plate:

I_{door}=\frac{1}{3}MW^2

M is the mass of the door

W is the width of the door

The moment of inertia of the mud is:

I_{mud}=mr^2

Hence,

L_1=L_2\\mvr= (I_{door} + I_{mud}) \omega_f\\\omega_f=\frac{mvr}{I_{door} + I_{mud}} \\\omega_f=\frac{mvr}{I_{door} + I_{mud}}

\omega_f=\frac{0.5kg \times 12m/s \times 0.5m}{\frac{1}{3}40kg(1m)^2+0.5kg \times (0.5m)^2}

\omega_f=0.223 \frac{rad}{s}

A 1.5 kilogram cart initially moves at 2.0 meters per second. It is brought to rest by a constant net forcé in 3.0 second. What
lubasha [3.4K]

The net force on the cart is

                   Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

We know the mass = 1.5 kilogram, but we need to
calculate the acceleration.

               Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (ending speed) minus (beginning speed)

                               =    ( 0 )  -  ( 2 m/s )  =   -2 m/s

Acceleration =  (change in speed) / (time for the change)

                       =       ( -2 m/s )   /   (3 sec)

                       =           - 2/3  m/s² .

Finally ...        Net force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                                       =  (1.5 kilogram) x ( - 2/3 m/s²)

                                       =  ( - 3/2 x 2/3 )  (kg-m/s²)

                                       =       - 1  newton .

The negative sign on the force means the force is applied
opposite to the direction the cart is moving.  That gives
negative acceleration (slowing down), and the cart
eventually stops.

A proton with a velocity in the positive x-direction enters a region where there is a uniform magnetic field B in the positive y
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Positive z direction.

Explanation:

The magnetic force acting on the electron is given by the formula as :

F=q(v\times B)

q is the charge on proton

v is the speed of proton

B is the magnetic field

It is mentioned that the proton is moving with a velocity in the positive x-direction. The uniform magnetic field B in the positive y-direction such taht,

q = +e

v = vi

B = Bj

F=e(v\ i\times B\ j)

Since, i\times j=k

F=(evB)\ k

So, the magnetic force acting on the proton in positive z axis. Hence, the correct option is (d) "positive z direction".

A block of mass 4 kg, which has an initialspeed of 3 m/s at timet= 0, slides on ahorizontal surface.Find the magnitude of the wo
Vikki [24]

Answer:

18 J

Explanation:

Work done: This can be defined as the product of force and distance acting on a body. The S. I unit of work is Joules (J)

From the question, the work that must be done in bringing the block to rest is equal to the kinetic energy of the block.

Ek = 1/2mv².................... Equation 1

Where Ek = kinetic eenrgy m = mass of the block, v = velocity of the block.

Given: m = 4 kg, v = 3 m/s.

Substituting into equation 1

Ek = 1/2(4)(3²)

Ek = 2(9)

Ek = 18 J.

Thus the work that must me done on the block to bring it to rest = 18 J.

As a train enters the station it slows down from 40 m/s to a 10 m/s in 5 seconds
lora16 [44]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f}=v_{o}-a*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 10 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 40 [m/s]

t = time = 5 [s]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

Now replacing:

10=40-a*5\\40-10=a*5\\30=5*a\\a=6[m/s^{2}]

Note: The negative sign in the above equation means that the velecity is decreasing.

2)

To solve this second part we must use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f}^{2} =v_{o}^{2} -2*a*x\\

where:

x = distance [m]

(10)^{2} =(40)^{2} -2*6*x\\100=1600-12*x\\12*x=1600-100\\12*x=1500\\x=125[m]
