What happens in a tug of war if the net forces are balanced and why?

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Balanced forces are responsible for unchanging motion. Balanced forces are forces where the effect of one force is cancelled out by another. A tug of war, where each team is pulling equally on the rope, is an example of balanced forces. The forces exerted on the rope are equal in size and opposite in direction.

A vertical spring has a length of 0.25 m when a 0.175 kg mass hangs from it, and a length of 0.775 m when a 2.075 kg mass hangs

Contact [7]

Answer:

A) 35.5N/m b) 20.1cm

Explanation:

Using Hooke's law;

F = Ke where F is the weight of the object = mass of the object in kg * acceleration due to gravity in m/s^2 and k if the force constant of the spring in N/m and e is the extension of the spring which original length of the spring - new length after extension in meters

For the first body, m*g = K * (0.25- li)

Where li is the initial length of the spring

0.175*9.81 = k(0.25-li)

1.72 = k(0.25-li) as equation 1

For the second body, m *g = K* ( 0.775-li)

2.075*9.81 = k (0.775-li) equation 2

20.36 = k(0.775-li)

Make li subject of the formula;

li = 0.775 - 20.36/k

Substitute for li in equation 1

1.72 = k(0.25- (0.775 - 20.36/k))

1.72 = k ( 0.25 - 0.775 + 20.36/k)

Open the bracket with k

1.72 = 0.25k - 0.775k + 20.36 (since k cancel k)

Collect the like terms:

1.72 - 20.36 = - 0.525k

- 18.64 = -0.525k

Divide both side by -0.525

-18.64/-0.525 = -0.525/-0.525k

K = 35.5N/m

B) substitute for k in using

li = 0.775 - 20.36/k

li = 0.775 - 20.36/35.5

li = 0.775 - 0.574

li = 0.201 in meters

li = 0.201 * 100 centimeters = 20.1cm

g A thin-walled hollow cylinder and a solid cylinder, both have same mass 2.0 kg and radius 20 cm, start rolling down from rest

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a. i. 3.43 m/s ii. 2.8 m/s

b. The thin-walled cylinder

Explanation:

a. Find translational speed of each cylinder upon reaching the bottom

The potential energy change of each mass = total kinetic energy gain = translational kinetic energy + rotational kinetic energy

So, mgh = 1/2mv² + 1/2Iω² where m = mass of object = 2.0 kg, g =acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², h = height of incline = 1.2 m, v = translational velocity of object, I = moment of inertia of object and ω = angular speed = v/r where r = radius of object.

i. translational speed of thin-walled cylinder upon reaching the bottom

So, For the thin-walled cylinder, I = mr², we find its translational velocity, v

So, mgh = 1/2mv² + 1/2Iω²

mgh = 1/2mv² + 1/2(mr²)(v/r)²

mgh = 1/2mv² + 1/2mv²

mgh = mv²

v² = gh

v = √gh

v = √(9.8 m/s² × 1.2 m)

v = √(11.76 m²/s²)

v = 3.43 m/s

ii. translational speed of solid cylinder upon reaching the bottom

So, For the solid cylinder, I = mr²/2, we find its translational velocity, v'

So, mgh = 1/2mv'² + 1/2Iω²

mgh = 1/2mv² + 1/2(mr²/2)(v'/r)²

mgh = 1/2mv'² + mv'²

mgh = 3mv'²/2

v'² = 2gh/3

v' = √(2gh/3)

v' = √(2 × 9.8 m/s² × 1.2 m/3)

v' = √(23.52 m²/s²/3)

v' = √(7.84 m²/s²)

v' = 2.8 m/s

b. Determine which cylinder has the greatest translational speed upon reaching the bottom.

Since v = 3.43 m/s > v'= 2.8 m/s,

the thin-walled cylinder has the greatest translational speed upon reaching the bottom.

Both segments of the wire are made of the same metal. Current I1 flows into segment 1 from the left. How does current I1 in segm

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

current I1 = current I2

Explanation:

since the wire is made up of the same material, from Kirchoff's current law sum of currents entering a particular node or segment of wire is equals to the sum of currents leaving that particular node or segment of wire

Assume the Earth is a ball of perimeter 40, 000 kilometers. There is a building 20 meters tall at point a. A robot with a camera

torisob [31]

Answer:

Approximately 21 km.

Explanation:

Refer to the not-to-scale diagram attached. The circle is the cross-section of the sphere that goes through the center C. Draw a line that connects the top of the building (point B) and the camera on the robot (point D.) Consider: at how many points might the line intersects the outer rim of this circle? There are three possible cases:

No intersection: There's nothing that blocks the camera's view of the top of the building.
Two intersections: The planet blocks the camera's view of the top of the building.
One intersection: The point at which the top of the building appears or disappears.

There's only one such line that goes through the top of the building and intersects the outer rim of the circle only once. That line is a tangent to this circle. In other words, it is perpendicular to the radius of the circle at the point A where it touches the circle.

The camera needs to be on this tangent line when the building starts to disappear. To find the length of the arc that the robot has travelled, start by finding the angle $\angle \mathrm{B\hat{C}D}$ which corresponds to this minor arc.

This angle comes can be split into two parts:

$\angle \mathrm{B\hat{C}D} = \angle \mathrm{B\hat{C}A} + \angle \mathrm{A\hat{C}D}$ .

Also,

$\angle \mathrm{B\hat{A}C} = \angle \mathrm{D\hat{A}C} = 90^{\circ}$ .

The radius of this circle is:

$\displaystyle r = \frac{c}{2\pi} = \rm \frac{4\times 10^{7}\; m}{2\pi}$ .

The lengths of segment DC, AC, BC can all be found:

$\rm DC = \rm \left(1.75 \displaystyle + \frac{4\times 10^{7}\; m}{2\pi}\right)\; m$ ;
$\rm AC = \rm \displaystyle \frac{4\times 10^{7}}{2\pi}\; m$ ;
$\rm BC = \rm \left(20\; m\displaystyle +\frac{4\times 10^{7}}{2\pi} \right)\; m$ .

In the two right triangles $\triangle\mathrm{DAC}$ and $\triangle \rm BAC$ , the value of $\angle \mathrm{B\hat{C}A}$ and $\angle \mathrm{A\hat{C}D}$ can be found using the inverse cosine function:

$\displaystyle \angle \mathrm{B\hat{C}A} = \cos^{-1}{\rm \frac{AC}{BC}}$

$\displaystyle \angle \mathrm{D\hat{C}A} = \cos^{-1}{\rm \frac{AC}{DC}}$

$\displaystyle \angle \mathrm{B\hat{C}D} = \cos^{-1}{\rm \frac{AC}{BC}} + \cos^{-1}{\rm \frac{AC}{DC}}$ .

The length of the minor arc will be:

$\displaystyle r \theta = \frac{4\times 10^{7}\; \rm m}{2\pi} \cdot (\cos^{-1}{\rm \frac{AC}{BC}} + \cos^{-1}{\rm \frac{AC}{DC}}) \approx 20667 \; m \approx 21 \; km$ .
