A cart loaded with bricks has a total mass of 9.13 kg and is pulled at constant speed by a rope. The rope is inclined at 24.7 ◦

degrees above the horizontal and the cart moves 15.1 m on a horizontal floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction between ground and cart is 0.597. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . How much work is done on the cart by the rope? Answer in units of kJ

Answer:

W = 0.63 KJ

Explanation:

Work (W) is defined as the point product of force (F) by the distance (d)the body travels due to this force.  

W= F*d *cosα Formula (1)  

F : force (N)

d : displacement (m)

α : angle between force and displacement

Newton's second law:

∑F = m*a Formula (2)  

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass s (kg)

a : acceleration  (m/s²)

We define the x-axis in the direction parallel to the movement of the cart on the ramp and the y-axis in the direction perpendicular to it.

Forces acting on the cart

W: Weight of the cart : In vertical direction

FN : Normal force : perpendicular to the floor

f : Friction force: parallel to the floor

T : tension Force,  inclined at  θ=24.7° above the horizontal

Calculated of the W

W= m*g

W= 9.13 kg* 9.8 m/s² = 89.47 N

x-y components o the  tension force (T)

Tx = Tcosθ = T*cos 24.7° (N)

Ty = Tsin θ = T*sin 24.7°  (N)

Calculated of the FN  

We apply the formula (2)  

∑Fy = m*ay ay = 0  

FN +Ty- W = 0  

FN = W-Ty  

FN =  89.47-T*sin 24.7°

Calculated of the friction force (f)

f = μk*FN

f =(0.597)*(  89.47-T*sin 24.7° )

f= 53.41-0.249T

Calculated of the tension force of the rope (f)

We apply the formula (2) :

∑Fx = m*ax  ,  ax= 0 ,because the speed of the cart  is constant

Tx - f = 0

T*cos 24.7°-( 53.41 - 0.249T )= 0

T*cos 24.7° + 0.249T = 53.41

(1.1575)T = 53.41

T= (53.41) / (1.1575)

T= 46.14 N

Work done on the cart by the rope

We apply the formula (1)

W=T*d *cosα

W= (46.14 N)*(15.1 m) *(cos24.7)

W = 632.97 (N*m) = 632.97 (J)

W = 0.63 KJ

Which is not a simple harmonic motion (S.H.M.) (a) Simple Pendulum (b) Projectile motion (c) None (d) Spring motion
Scrat [10]

Answer:

b) Projectile MOTION

Explanation:

SHM is periodic motion or to and fro motion of a particle about its mean position in a straight line

In this type of motion particle must be in straight line motion

So here we can say

a) Simple Pendulum : it is a straight line to and fro motion about mean position so it is a SHM

b) Projectile motion : it is a parabolic path in which object do not move to and fro about its mean position So it is not SHM

d) Spring Motion : it is a straight line to and fro motion so it is also a SHM

So correct answer will be

b) Projectile MOTION

A felt-covered beanbag is fired into a empty wooden crate that sits on a concrete floor and is open on one side. The beanba
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

31.42383 m/s

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

\mu = Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.48

s = Displacement = 0.935 m

m_1 = Mass of bean bag = 0.354 kg

m_2 = Mass of empty crate = 3.77 kg

v_1 = Speed of the bean bag

v_2 = Speed of the crate

Acceleration

a=-\frac{f}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=-\frac{\mu mg}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=-\mu g

a=--9.81\times 0.48=4.7088\ m/s^2

From equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 4.7088\times 0.935+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=2.96739\ m/s

In this system the momentum is conserved

m_1v_1=(m_1+m_2)v_2\\\Rightarrow v_1=\frac{(m_1+m_2)v_2}{m_1}\\\Rightarrow u=\frac{(0.354+3.77)\times 2.69739}{0.354}\\\Rightarrow u=31.42383\ m/s

The speed of the bean bag is 31.42383 m/s

A pendulum is raised to a height of 0.3m above its lowest point and released. What is the velocity of the pendulum at its lowest
enyata [817]

Answer:

v = 2,425 m / s

Explanation:

A simple pendulum has anergy stored at the highest point of the path and this energy is conserved throughout the movement.

highest point

           Em₀ = U = m g y

lowest point

          Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

         Em₀ = Em_{f}

        mg y = ½ m v²

        v = √ 2gy

let's calculate

        v = √ (2 9.8 0.3)

        v = 2,425 m / s

Use a(t) = -32 feet per second per second as the acceleration due to gravity. (Neglect air resistance.) -With what initial veloc
Kitty [74]

Answer:

u= 187.61 ft/s

Explanation:

Given that

g= - 32 ft/s²

The maximum height ,h= 550 ft

Lets take the initial velocity = u ft/s

We know that

v²=u² + 2 g s

v=final speed ,u=initial speed ,s=height

When the object reach at the maximum height then the final speed of the object will become zero.

That is why

u²= 2 x 32 x 550

u²= 35200

u= 187.61 ft/s

That is why the initial speed will be 187.61 ft/s
