A 60​-m-long chain hangs vertically from a cylinder attached to a winch. Assume there is no friction in the system and that the

chain has a density of 10 ​kg/m. Use 9.8 m divided by s squared for the acceleration due to gravity. a. How much work is required to wind the entire chain onto the cylinder using the​ winch? b. How much work is required to wind the chain onto the cylinder if a 35​-kg block is attached to the end of the​ chain?

Answer:

part (a). 176580 J

part (b). 197381 J

Explanation:

Given,

  • Density of the chain = \rho\ =\ 10\ kg/m.
  • Length of the chain = L = 60 m
  • Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.81 m/s^2

part (a)

Let dy be the small element of the chain at a distance of 'y' from the ground.

mass of the small element of the chain = \rho dy

Work done due to the small element,

dw\ =\ \rho g (60\ -\ y)dy\\

Total work done to wind the entire chain = w

w\ =\ \displaystyle\int_{0}^{L} \rho g(60\ -\ y)dy\\\Rightarrow  w\ =\ \rho g\left |(60y\ -\ \dfrac{y^2}{2})\ \right |_{0}^{60}\\\Rightarrow w\ =\ 10\times 9.81\times (60\times 60\ -\ \dfrac{60^2}{2})\\\Rightarrow w\ =\ 176580\ J

part (b)

  • mass of the block connected to the chain = m = 35 kg

Total work done to wind the chain = work done due to the chain + work done due to the mass

\therefore W\ =\ w\ +\ mgL\\\Rightarrow W\ =\ 176580\ +\ 35\times 9.81\times 60\\\Rightarrow W\ =\ 176580\ +\ 20601\\\Rightarrow W\ =\ 197381\ J

Isotope what is the meaning
Nesterboy [21]

Isotope means that a chemical element that has the same number of protons but neutron number differs.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In isotope, the chemical element differs in neutron and nucleon number. Thus, different isotopes of a single component hold the same place in the periodic table.

Within the atom’s nucleus, protons are defined as an atomic number that is significantly equal to electrons in a neutral atom. An isotope of a given element has a different mass number. In general, every atomic number has a specific element, but in isotope, an atom may have a wide range of neutrons.

Fynjy0 [20]
So, the first question is: how many meters are 10 nm?

1nm =<span>0.000000001 m.

So 10 nanometers are </span><span>0.00000001 m!

Now, how many milimeter are those?
let's start with meters, 1 meter are 1000 milimeters.
so </span>
0.00000001*1000=0.<span><span>00001</span> m!

now, micrometers .1 micrometer are 1000 nanometers.
so 10 nanometers are 0.01 micrometers! (1 nanometer is 0.001 micrometers)
