Part A A uniform solid disk of radius 1.60 m and mass 2.30 kg rolls without slipping to the bottom of an inclined plane. If the

kifflom [539]

Answer:

Height will be 3.8971 m

Explanation:

We have given that radius of the solid r = 1.60 m

Mass of the solid disk m = 2.30 kg

Angular velocity $\omega =4.46rad/sec$

Moment of inertia is given by $I=\frac{1}{2}mr^2$

Transnational Kinetic energy is given by $KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ as we know that v = $v=\omega r$

So $KE=\frac{1}{2}m(\omega r)^2$

Rotational kinetic energy is given by $KE_{ROTATIONAL}=\frac{1}{2}I\omega ^2=\frac{1}{2}\left ( \frac{1}{2}mr^2 \right )\omega ^2=\frac{1}{4}m(r\omega )^2$

Potential energy is given by mgh

According to energy conservation

$mgh=\frac{1}{2}m(\omega r)^2+\frac{1}{4}m(\omega r)^2$

$h=\frac{3r^2\omega ^2}{4g}=\frac{3\times 1.60^2\times 4.46^2}{4\times 9.8}=3.8971m$

Starting from rest, a 6.79 kg block slides 2.82 m down a rough 20.7 ◦ incline. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the b

Veronika [31]

Answer:

23.52092 J

Explanation:

m = Mass of block = 6.79 kg

s = Sliding distance = 2.82 m

$\theta$ = Angle of slide = 20.7°

$\mu$ = Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.425

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Work done by the force of gravity is given by

$W=mgsin\theta\\\Rightarrow W=6.79\times 9.8\times sin20.7\\\Rightarrow W=23.52092\ J$

The work done by the force of gravity is 23.52092 J

A package is dropped from an air balloon two times. In the first trial the distance between the balloon and the surface is Hand

enyata [817]

Answer:

<em>The final speed of the second package is twice as much as the final speed of the first package.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Free Fall Motion</u>

If an object is dropped in the air, it starts a vertical movement with an acceleration equal to g=9.8 m/s^2. The speed of the object after a time t is:

$v=gt$

And the distance traveled downwards is:

$\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}$

If we know the height at which the object was dropped, we can calculate the time it takes to reach the ground by solving the last equation for t:

$\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}$

Replacing into the first equation:

$\displaystyle v=g\sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}$

Rationalizing:

$\displaystyle v=\sqrt{2gy}$

Let's call v1 the final speed of the package dropped from a height H. Thus:

$\displaystyle v_1=\sqrt{2gH}$

Let v2 be the final speed of the package dropped from a height 4H. Thus:

$\displaystyle v_2=\sqrt{2g(4H)}$

Taking out the square root of 4:

$\displaystyle v_2=2\sqrt{2gH}$

Dividing v2/v1 we can compare the final speeds:

$\displaystyle v_2/v_1=\frac{2\sqrt{2gH}}{\sqrt{2gH}}$

Simplifying:

$\displaystyle v_2/v_1=2$

The final speed of the second package is twice as much as the final speed of the first package.

A new roller coaster contains a loop-the-loop in which the car and rider are completely upside down. If the radius of the loop i

levacccp [35]

Answer:

The minimum speed must the car must be 13.13 m/s.

Explanation:

The radius of the loop is 17.6 m. We need to find the minimum speed must the car traverse the loop so that the rider does not fall out while upside down at the top.

We know that, mg be the weight of car and rider, which is equal to the centripetal force.

$mg = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\v = \sqrt{rg}\\v = \sqrt{17.6\times 9.8}\\v = 13.13\ m/s\\$

So, the minimum speed must the car must be 13.13 m/s.
