A fixed pulley changes the direction of the force on a rope or belt that moves along its circumference.

A fixed pulley changes the direction of the force on a rope or belt that moves along its circumference. Mechanical advantage is gained by combining a fixed pulley with a movable pulley or another fixed pulley of a different diameter. Movable: A movable pulley has an axle in a movable block.

Suppose a clay model of a koala bear has a mass of 0.205 kg and slides on ice at a speed of 0.720 m/s. It runs into another clay
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Final velocity, v = 0.28 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the model, m_1=0.205\ kg

Speed of the model, u_1=0.72\ m/s

Mass of another model, m_2=0.32\ kg

Initial speed of another model, u_2=0

To find,

Final velocity

Solution,

Let V is the final velocity. As both being soft clay, they naturally stick together. It is a case of inelastic collision. Using the conservation of linear momentum to find it as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V

V=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}

V=\dfrac{0.205\times 0.72+0.32\times 0}{(0.205+0.32)}

V = 0.28 m/s

So, their final velocity is 0.28 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Oil having a density of 930 kg/m^3 floats on
Zolol [24]

Answer:

0.0268 m

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the block.  There are three forces: weight force mg pulling down, buoyancy of the oil B₁ pushing up, and buoyancy of the water B₂ pushing up.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

B₁ + B₂ − mg = 0

ρ₁V₁g + ρ₂V₂g − mg = 0

ρ₁V₁ + ρ₂V₂ = m

ρ₁V₁ + ρ₂V₂ = ρV

ρ₁Ah₁ + ρ₂Ah₂ = ρAh

ρ₁h₁ + ρ₂h₂ = ρh

(930 kg/m³)h₁ + (1000 kg/m³)h₂ = (968 kg/m³) (4.93 cm)

Since the block is fully submerged, h₁ + h₂ = 4.93 cm.

(930 kg/m³) (4.93 cm − h₂) + (1000 kg/m³)h₂ = (968 kg/m³) (4.93 cm)

h₂ = 2.68 cm

h₂ = 0.0268 m

2. An athlete of average size is hanging from the end of a 20 m long rope, which has a mass of 4 kg and is attached to a hook in
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

  t = 0.319 s

Explanation:

With the sudden movement of the athlete a pulse is formed that takes time to move along the rope, the speed of the rope is given by

             v = √T/λ

Linear density is

           λ = m / L

           λ = 4/20

           λ = 0.2 kg / m

The tension in the rope is equal to the athlete's weight, suppose it has a mass of m = 80 kg

           T = W = mg

           T = 80 9.8

           T = 784 N

The pulse rate is

          v = √(784 / 0.2)

          v = 62.6 m / s

The time it takes to reach the hook can be searched with kinematics

          v = x / t

          t = x / v

          t = 20 / 62.6

          t = 0.319 s

You are driving at 35 m/s east and notice another car that is initially located 462 m in front of you and is moving east at 25 m
GaryK [48]

The easiest way to answer this question is by realizing there are relating the velocities of the two cars. To tackle this problem, you have to understand the picture.  Car 1 travels at 35m/s and Car 2 travels at 25m/s.  Based on relative velocities, we can understand that Car 1 travels 10m/s faster than Car 2 every second.  So we can interpret Car 1's relative velocity to Car 2 as 10m/s.  Car 1 needs to travel 10m/s till a point of catching up to Car 2 which is 462m away.

v = 10m/s

d = 462m

v = d/t

(10) = (462)/t

t = 46.2s

So it takes 46.2 seconds for Car 1 to catch up to Car 2, but the question is asking how far does Car 1 travel to catch up.  So we have to use Car 1's velocity and not the relative velocity:

v = 35m/s

v = d/t

(35) = d/(46.2)

d = 1617m

Car 1 traveled a total distance of 1617m.
