A mass m1=1.5 kg rests on a 30 degree ramp with a coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.40. Mass m1 is tied to another mass m with

a string which runs over a frictionless pulley. Mass m is hanging above the ground. The acceleration of masses is measured 2.68 m/s2. What is m?

Answer:

m = 2.31 Kg

Explanation:

given,

m₁ is the mass rest on the inclined plane = 1.5 Kg

inclination of plane = 30°

Kinetic friction = μ = 0.4

acceleration of the body = 2.68 m/s²

mass m is hanging = ?

using equation to solve

T - m₁g sin θ - μ m₁g cos θ = m₁ a

on the block on inclined plane there will be acting tension T on the string,

mg sin θ will be the force acting opposite to the tension on the string and a frictional force will be acting which will oppose moment which will be equal to μ m₁g cos θ

T = m₁(g sin θ + μ g cos θ + a )

T = 1.5 (9.8 x sin 30° + 0.4 x 9.8 x cos 30°+ 2.68 )

T = 16.46 N

now, forces on the other side of pulley

m g - T = m a

m (g - a ) = T

$m = \dfrac{16.46}{9.8-2.68}$

m = 2.31 Kg

When Javier touches a hot mug of tea, energy is transferred from the surface of the mug to his hand. What kind of energy is this

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Thermal energy

Explanation:

Thermal energy refers to the energy due to the random motion of the particles inside a substance/objects. The faster the particles moves in an object, the more thermal energy it can transfer. This is also directly related to the concept of temperature of an object: the higher the temperature of an object, the faster its particles move, the more thermal energy the object can transfer.

According to the basic laws of thermodynamics, thermal energy (also called heat) is always transferred spontaneously from an object at higher temperature to an object at lower temperature. In this problem, the hot mug is warmer than Javier's hand, so thermal energy is transferred from the hot mug to Javier's hand.

uniform disk with mass 40.0 kg and radius 0.200 m is pivoted at its center about a horizontal, frictionless axle that is station

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

The magnitude of the tangential velocity is $v= 0.868 m/s$

The magnitude of the resultant acceleration at that point is $a = 4.057 m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the uniform disk is $m_d = 40.0kg$

The radius of the uniform disk is $R_d = 0.200m$

The force applied on the disk is $F_d = 30.0N$

Generally the angular speed i mathematically represented as

$w = \sqrt{2 \alpha \theta}$

Where $\theta$ is the angular displacement given from the question as

$\theta = 0.2000 rev = 0.2000 rev * \frac{2 \pi \ rad }{1 rev}$

$=1.257\ rad$

$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration which is mathematically represented as

$\alpha = \frac{torque }{moment \ of \ inertia} = \frac{F_d * R_d}{I}$

The moment of inertial is mathematically represented as

$I = \frac{1}{2} m_dR^2_d$

Substituting values

$I = 0.5 * 40 * 0.200^2$

$= 0.8kg \cdot m^2$

Considering the equation for angular acceleration

$\alpha = \frac{torque }{moment \ of \ inertia} = \frac{F_d * R_d}{I}$

Substituting values

$\alph$ $\alpha = \frac{(30.0)(0.200)}{0.8}$

$= 7.5 rad/s^2$

Considering the equation for angular velocity

$w = \sqrt{2 \alpha \theta}$

Substituting values

$w =\sqrt{2 * (7.5) * 1.257}$

$= 4.34 \ rad/s$

The tangential velocity of a given point on the rim is mathematically represented as

$v = R_d w$

Substituting values

$= (0.200)(4.34)$

$v= 0.868 m/s$

The radial acceleration at hat point is mathematically represented as

$\alpha_r = \frac{v^2}{R}$

$= \frac{0.868^2}{0.200^2}$

$= 3.7699 \ m/s^2$

The tangential acceleration at that point is mathematically represented as

$\alpha _t = R \alpha$

Substituting values

$\alpha _t = (0.200) (7.5)$

$= 1.5 m/s^2$

The magnitude of resultant acceleration at that point is

$a = \sqrt{\alpha_r ^2+ \alpha_t^2 }$

Substituting values

$a = \sqrt{(3.7699)^2 + (1.5)^2}$

$a = 4.057 m/s^2$

Phantasy [73]

Answer: force of gravity on the body due to height difference above the earth's surface

Explanation: as you increase the height of a body above ground, you do work against gravity in moving it from a point on the earth's surface to that point. So a body falling has a stored up gravito-potential energy which acts on it downward due to its mass, accelerating it downwards

Answer b): kinetic energy of the body

Explanation: the downward force produces an acceleration of magnitude 9.81m/s2 downwards which means an increasing velocity. This increasing velocity means the kinetic energy of the body is increasing (kinetic energy is proportional to velocity of the body squared)
