If a metal ball suspended by a rod is at rest, which force is responsible for balancing the force due to gravity?

1 answer:

5 0

There are different kinds of forces; applied force, force of gravity, friction force, normal force, tension force. We will focus on the common forces, applied force and force of gravity. An applied force is a force that is applied to an object by another object. The force of gravity is the force with which massively large objects such as the earth attracts another object towards itself. All objects of the earth exert a gravity that is directed towards the center of the earth. Therefore, the force of gravity of the earth is equal to the weight of the object.

Answer:

The work done shall be 14715 Joules

Explanation:

The work done by a force 'F' in a displacement 'dy' is given by

$W=m(y)g\times dy$

At any position 'y' the weight shall be sum of weft of water and weight of string

$\therefore m(y)=m_{water}(y)+m_{string}(y)\\\\m(y)=30(1-\frac{y}{10})+0.9y$

Thus applying values we get

$W=\int m(y)g\times dy\\\\W=\int_{0}^{10}(30(1-\frac{y}{10}+0.9y)\times g)dy\\\\Solving\\W=294.3\int_{0}^{10}(1-\frac{y}{10}+0.9y)dy\\\\W=14715J$

Alexxandr [17]

Maunder minimum is related to climate due to the unusually low sunspot activity correlates to unusually cold climatic events. The answer is letter A. It happened around 1645 and 1715 and also coincided with the phenomena ‘Little Ice Age’ (1500 – 1850) in the Northern Hemisphere.
