yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

a)-2m/s^2

b)27.2m/s

Explanation:

Hello! The first step to solve this problem is to find the mass of the block remembering that the definition of weight force is mass by gravity (g=9.8m / s ^ 2)

W=455N=weight

W=mg

W=455N=weight

m=\frac{W}{g} =\frac{455}{9.81}=46.38kg

The second step is to draw the free body diagram of the body (see attached image) and use Newton's second law that states that the sum of the forces is equal to mass by acceleration

a=\frac{T-W}{m} =\frac{361-455}{46.38kg} =-2m/s^2

for point b we use the equations of motion with constant acceleration to find the velocity

Vf=\sqrt{X(2)(a)+Vo^2}

Where

Vf = final speed

Vo = Initial speed =0

A = acceleration =2m/s

X = displacement =6.8m

Solving

Vf=\sqrt{(6.8)(2)(2)+0^2}=27.2m/s

Frank has a sample of steel that has a mass of 80 grams if the density is 8g/cm3 what is the volume
nikklg [1K]
Density is mass divided by volume. rho=m/v. So, v=m/rho. In frank's case this is 80/8 = 10 cm^3.

A meter stick is held vertically with one end on the floor and is then allowed to fall. Find the speed of the other end when it
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

5.4 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

Here we have to use conservation of energy. Initially when the stick is held vertical, its center of mass is at some height above the ground, hence the stick has some gravitational potential energy. As the stick is allowed to fall, its rotates about one. gravitational potential energy of the stick gets converted into rotational kinetic energy.

L = length of the meter stick = 1 m

m = mass of the meter stick

w = angular speed of the meter stick as it hits the floor

v = speed of the other end of the stick

we know that, linear speed and angular speed are related as

v = r w\\w = \frac{v}{r}

h = height of center of mass of meter stick above the floor = \frac{L}{2} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 m

I = Moment of inertia of the stick about one end

For a stick, momentof inertia about one end has the formula as

I = \frac{mL^{2} }{3}

Using conservation of energy

Rotational kinetic energy of the stick = gravitational potential energy

(0.5) I w^{2} = mgh\\(0.5)(\frac{mL^{2} }{3}) (\frac{v}{L} )^{2} = mgh\\(0.5)(\frac{v^{2} }{3}) = gh\\(0.5)(\frac{v^{2} }{3}) = (9.8)(0.5)\\v = 5.4 ms^{-1}
