Carlos has eight marbles that are all the same size. he knows that one marble has a mass of 10 grams. to find out the total mass

of all his marbles together, he adds 8 tens and gets a total of 80 grams. why does this method of finding the total mass work.

Why is the motion of an athlete moving along the circular path with Constant speed considered to be an accelerated motion?
Strike441 [17]

The speed is changing its direction all the time. There is an acceleration which changes the direction of the speed – that is called centripetal acceleration. Only uniform linear motions are considered to have no acceleration.

This is the general formula for acceleration

a = dv/dt

When calculating dv, you should keep in mind the change in the velocity vector’s direction. You can easily see in a graph that with dt tending to 0 (so the length of the arc covered is also tending to 0), the difference between vectors Vf and V0 has a direction which is perpendicular to velocity (the shorter the arc, the closest the angle is to 90 degrees).

There is a formula (which can be deducted from the previous formula) which allows you to calculate the acceleration:

a = v^2/r

Let’s talk about the units:

v is in m/s

r is in m

so v^2/r

is in (m/s)^2/m = (m^2/s^2)/m = m/s^2

which is the same unit as dv/dt:

dv/dt = (m/s)/s= m/s^2

A uniform solid disk rolls without slipping down an incline making an angle θ with the horizontal. What is its acceleration? (En
Maru [420]

Answer:

aCM = (2/3)*g*Sin θ

Explanation:

Consider a uniform solid disk having mass M,  radius R and rotational inertia I  about its center of mass, rolling without  slipping down an inclined plane.

In order to get the linear acceleration of the object’s center of mass, aCM ,

down the incline,  we analyze this as follows:

The force of gravity (W = Mg) acting straight down  is resolved into components parallel and  perpendicular to the incline.

Since the object rolls without  slipping there is a force of  friction (Ff) acting on the object,  at it’s point of contact with the  incline, in the direction up  the incline.

Newton’s 2nd Law gives then for acceleration down the incline

∑Fx' = m*aCM   ⇒    m*g*Sin θ - Ff = m*aCM

The force of friction also causes a torque around the center of mass

having lever arm R so we can also write

τ = R*Ff = I*α

Solving for the friction,    Ff = I*α / R

This is used in the expression  derived from the 2nd Law:

m*g*Sin θ - Ff = m*g*Sin θ - (I*α / R) = m*aCM

The objects angular acceleration is related to the linear acceleration  of the edge that contacts the incline by

a = R*α

Since the object rolls without  slipping this has the same  magnitude as aCM so we have  that

α = aCM / R

Using this in

m*g*Sin θ - (I*α / R) = m*g*Sin θ - (I*(aCM / R) / R) = m*aCM

⇒  aCM = (m*g*Sin θ*R²) / (I + m*R²)

if I = (1/2)*m*R²   (for a uniform solid disk)

we get

aCM = (2/3)*g*Sin θ
