A cable passes over a pulley. Because the cable grips the pulley and the pulley has nonzero mass, the tension in the cable is no

t the same on opposite sides of the pulley. The force on one side is 162 N, and the force on the other side is 63 N. Assuming that the pulley is a uniform disk of mass 1.29 kg and radius 1.184 m, find the magnitude of its angular acceleration. [For a uniform disk, I

Answer:

a = 129.663 rad/s^{2}

Explanation:

We know that:

T = Ia

Where T is the torque, I is the moment of inertia and a is the angular aceleration:

First, we will find the moment of inertia using the following equation:

I = \frac{1}{2}MR^2

Where M is the mass and R is the radius of the disk. Replacing values, we get:

I = \frac{1}{2}(1.29kg)(1.184m)^2

I = 0.904 kg*m^2

Second, we will find the torque using the following equation:

T = (F_1-F_2)*(R)

Where F_1 is the force on one side and F_2 is the force on the other side. Replacing values, we get:

T = (162N-63N)(1.184m)

T = 117.216N*m

Finally, we replace T and I on the initial equation as:

T = Ia

117.216N = (0.904)(a)

Solving for a:

a = 129.663 rad/s^{2}

A helium balloon has an internal pressure of 2.5 atm when it occupies 4.5 L. If it was compressed until it had a pressure of 3.3
steposvetlana [31]

Answer: V = 3.4 L

Explanation: Use Boyle's Law to find the new volume. P1V1 = P2V2, derive for V2, then the formula will be V2= P1V1 / P2

V2 = 2.5 atm ( 4.5 L ) / 3.3 atm

= 3.4 L

The weights in atwoods machine, starting at rest, attain a velocity of 2ft/sec in one sec. Find the ratio of the masses
Orlov [11]
Refer to the figure shown below.
Let m₁ and m₂ e the two masses.
Let a = the acceleration.
Let T =  tension over the frictionless pulley.

Write the equations of motion.
m₂g - T = m₂a            (1)
T - m₁g = m₁a            (2)

Add equations (1) and (2).
m₂g - T + T - m₁g = (m₁ + m₂)a
(m₂ - m₁)g = (m₁ + m₂)a

Divide through by m₁.
(m₂/m₁ - 1)g = (1 + m₂/m₁)a

Define r = m₂/m₁ as the ratio of the two masses. Then
(r - 1)g = (1 +r)a
r(g-a) = a + g
r = (g - a)/(g + a)

With  = 2 ft/s from rest, the acceleration is
a = 2/32.2 = 0.062 ft/s²
Therefore
r = (32.2 - 0.062)/(32.2 + 0.062) = 0.9962

Answer:
The ratio of masses is 0.9962 (heavier mass divided by the lighter mass).

The midpoint M of a guitar string is pulled a distance d = 1.7 mm from equilibrium and released. Point M is observed to undergo
nlexa [21]

Answer:

ω = 380π rad/s

Explanation:

The formula for the angular frequency is the oscillation frequency f (hertz) multiplied by 2π

ω = 2πf

then

ω = 2π(190)

ω = 380π rad/s

How does a electron travel through a closed circuit?
Murljashka [212]

The particles that carry charge through wires in a circuit are mobile electrons. The electric field direction within a circuit is by definition the direction that positive test charges are pushed. Thus, these negatively charged electrons move in the direction opposite the electric field.
