A 5-m steel beam is lowered by means of two cables unwinding at the same speed from overhead cranes. As the beam approaches the

ground, the crane operators apply brakes to slow the unwinding motion.
At the instant considered, the deceleration of the cable attached at B is 2.5 m/s2 , while that of the cable attached at D is 1.5 m/s2 .

Determine

(a) the angular acceleration of the beam,
(b) the acceleration of points A and E.

Answer:

a) The angular acceleration of the beam is 0.5 rad/s²CW (direction clockwise due the tangential acceleration is positive)

b) The acceleration of point A is 3.25 m/s²

The acceleration of point E is 0.75 m/s²

Explanation:

a) The relative acceleration of B with respect to D is equal:

a_{B} =a_{D} +(a_{B/D} )_{n} +(a_{B/D} )_{t}

Where

aB = absolute acceleration of point B = 2.5 j (m/s²)

aD = absolute acceleration of point D = 1.5 j (m/s²)

(aB/D)n = relative acceleration of point B respect to D (normal direction BD) = 0, no angular velocity of the beam

(aB/D)t = relative acceleration of point B respect to D (tangential direction BD)

a_{B} =a_{D}  +(a_{B/D} )_{t}

2.5j=1.5j  +(a_{B/D} )_{t}\\(a_{B/D} )_{t}=j=1m/s^{2}

We have that

(aB/D)t = BDα

Where α = acceleration of the beam

BDα = 1 m/s²

Where

BD = 2

2\alpha =1\\\alpha =0.5rad/s^{2}CW

b) The acceleration of point A is:

a_{A} =a_{D}  +(a_{A/D} )_{t}

(aA/D)t = ADαj

a_{A} =a_{D}  +AD\alpha j\\a_{A}=1.5j+(3.5*0.5)j\\a_{A}=3.25jm/s^{2}

The acceleration of point E is:

(aE/D)t = -EDαj

a_{E} =a_{D}  -ED\alpha j\\a_{E}=1.5j-(1.5*0.5)j\\a_{E}=0.75jm/s^{2}

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

The question is incomplete, below is the complete question "A particle moves through an xyz coordinate system while a force acts on it. When the particle has the position vector r with arrow = (2.00 m)i hat − (3.00 m)j + (2.00 m)k, the force is F with arrow = Fxi hat + (7.00 N)j − (5.00 N)k and the corresponding torque about the origin is vector tau = (4 N · m)i hat + (10 N · m)j + (11N · m)k.

Determine Fx."

F_{x}=-1N.m

Explanation:

We asked to determine the "x" component of the applied force. To do this, we need to write out the expression for the torque in the in vector representation.

torque=cross product of force and position . mathematically this can be express as

T=r*F

Where

F=F_{x}i+(7N)j-(5N)k  and the position vector

r=(2m)i-(3m)j+(2m)k

using the determinant method to expand the cross product in order to determine the torque we have

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\2&-3&2\\ F_{x} &7&-5\end{array}\right]\\\\

by expanding we arrive at

T=(18-14)i-(-12-2F_{x})j+(12+3F_{x})k\\T=4i-(-12-2F_{x})j+(12+3F_{x})k\\\\

since we have determine the vector value of the toque, we now compare with the torque value given in the question

(4Nm)i+(10Nm)j+(11Nm)k=4i-(-12-2F_{x})j+(12+3F_{x})k\\

if we directly compare the j coordinate we have

10=-(-12-2F_{x})\\10=12+2F_{x}\\ 10-12=2F_{x}\\ F_{x}=-1N.m

Some help me on this please
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Changes in the object's momentum (answer D)

Explanation:

A net force will cause an object to change its velocity, and that will affect the object's momentum, which is defined by the product of the object's mass times its velocity.

So, select the last option (D) in the given list.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

  θ = 28.9

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the law of refraction

          n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

where we use index 1 for air and index 2 for water where the fish is

        sin θ₂ = n₁ / n₂ sin θ₁

in this case the air repair index is 1 and the water 1.33

we substitute

        sin θ₂ = 1 / 1.33 sin t 40

        sin θ = 0.4833

         

        θ = sin⁻¹ 0.4833

        θ = 28.9
