A woman is running around a playground while keeping an eye on her child who is on a swing set. The child is going back and fort

h one second per cycle of swinging. (a) What is the total distance run by the mother in five minutes if she has been going 5.0 m/s? (b) What is the total distance traveled by the child if the radius of the swing is 3.0 m and each swing covers a quarter of the circle?+

Answer:

(a) 1500 m

(b) 2827.43m

Explanation:

Given that the time for one cycle of the swing is 1 s

The radius of the swing, R= 3.0m

The angle covered, \theta, by each swing is a quarter of the circle. i.e.

\Theta=\frac {\pi}{2}

Speed of running of women =5 m/s.

Time of running = 5 minutes= 5 x 60 secondes= 300 s.

(a) As distance= (speed) x (time)

So, the required distance= 5 x 300 m= 1500 m.

(b) As there are two swings in one cycle, so, the distance covered in one swing is the length of the circular shown in the figure.

As arc length, l= \theta R, where \theta is the angle, in radian, subtended by the arc at the center, and R is the radius of curvature of the arc.

So, the distance covered by the child in 1 swing = \frac {\pi}{2}\times 3 m=\frac{3\pi}{2}m.

In 1 cycle, there are 2 swings, so distance covered in 1 cycle = 3 \pi m.

Now, in 1 second there is 1 cycle, so in 5 minutes there will be 300 cycles.

So, the total distance covered by the child

= 3\pi\times 300 m= 2827.43 m.

A 1000-kg car is slowly picking up speed as it goes around a horizontal curve whose radius is 100 m. The coefficient of static f
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

18.5 m/s

Explanation:

On a horizontal curve, the frictional force provides the centripetal force that keeps the car in circular motion:

\mu mg = m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

\mu is the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road

m is the mass of the car

g is the gravitational acceleration

v is the speed of the car

r is the radius of the curve

Re-arranging the equation,

v=\sqrt{\mu gr}

And by substituting the data of the problem, we find the speed at which the car begins to skid:

v=\sqrt{(0.350)(9.8 m/s^2)(100 m)}=18.5 m/s

The spring constant will be k= 5.5N/m for a 200g air track glider attached to a spring.

<h3>What is spring constant?</h3>

The spring constant, k, is a measure of the stiffness of the spring. It is different for different springs and materials.

Calculation for What is the spring constant

First step is to calculate the time period

T = 12 second/10

T = 1.2 second

Now let calculate the spring constant using this formula

k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2m}{T^2}

Where,

m=0.2kg

T=1.2second

k represent spring constant=?

Let plug in the formula

k=\dfrac{4 \pi \times 0.2}{(1.2)^2}

k=\dfrac{39.48\times 0.2}{1.44}

k=\dfrac{7.90}{1.44}

k=5.48 N/m

k=5.5 N/m ( Approximately)

Therefore the spring constant will be 5.5 N/m

To know more about spring constant follow
