A 0.200-m uniform bar has a mass of 0.795 kg and is released from rest in the vertical position, as the drawing indicates. The s

pring is initially unstrained and has a spring constant of k = 27.0 N/m. Find the tangential speed with which end A strikes the horizontal surface.

Explanation:

Since, the rod is present in vertical position and the spring is unrestrained.

So, initial potential energy stored in the spring is U_{s} = 0

And, initial potential gravitational potential energy of the rod is U_{g} = \frac{mgL}{2}.

It is given that,

       mass of the bar = 0.795 kg

            g = 9.8 m/s^{2}

           L = length of the rod = 0.2 m

Initial total energy T = \frac{mgL}{2}

Now, when the rod is in horizontal position then final total energy will be as follows.

            T = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + I \omega^{2}

where,    I = moment of inertia of the rod about the end = \frac{mL^{2}}{3}

Also,    \omega = \frac{\nu}{L}

where,    \nu = speed of the tip of the rod

              x = spring extension

The initial unstrained length is x_{o} = 0.1 m

Therefore, final length will be calculated as follows.

              x' = \sqrt{(0.2)^{2} + (0.1)^{2}} m

Then,  x = x' - x_{o}

          x = \sqrt{(0.2)^{2} + (0.1)^{2}} m - 0.1 m

             = 0.1236 m

       k = 25 N/m

So, according to the law of conservation of energy

       \frac{mgL}{2} = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + \frac{1 \times mL^{2}}{2 \times 3}(\frac{\nu}{L})^{2}

      \frac{mgL}{2} = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + \frac{1}{6}mv^{2}

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

   \frac{mgL}{2} = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + \frac{1}{6}mv^{2}

  \frac{0.795 kg \times 9.8 \times 0.2 m}{2} = \frac{1}{2} \times 27 N/m \times (0.1236)^{2} + \frac{1}{6} \times 0.795 \times v^{2}

          v = 2.079 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that tangential speed with which end A strikes the horizontal surface is 2.079 m/s.

sukhopar [10]

Answer: The average speed is 27,24 mph (exactly 1008/37 mph)

Explanation:

This is solved using a three rule: We know the speeds and the distances, what we can obtain from it is the time used. It is done like this:

1h--->18mi

X ---->20 mi, then X=20mi*1h/18mi= 10/9 h=1,111 h

1h--->56mi

X ---->20 mi, then X=20mi*1h/56mi= 5/14 h=0,35714 h

Then the average speed is calculated by taking into account that it was traveled 40mi and the time used was 185/126 h=1,468 h and since speed is distance over time we get the answer. Average speed= 40mi/(185/126 h)=1008/37 mph=27,24 mph.
