Answer:
P = 1 (14,045 ± 0.03 ) k gm/s
Explanation:
In this exercise we are asked about the uncertainty of the momentum of the two carriages
Δ (Pₓ / Py) =?
Let's start by finding the momentum of each vehicle
car X
Pₓ = m vₓ
Pₓ = 2.34 2.5
Pₓ = 5.85 kg m
car Y
Py = 2,561 3.2
Py = 8,195 kgm
How do we calculate the absolute uncertainty at the two moments?
ΔPₓ = m Δv + v Δm
ΔPₓ = 2.34 0.01 + 2.561 0.01
ΔPₓ = 0.05 kg m
Δ
= m Δv + v Δm
ΔP_{y} = 2,561 0.01+ 3.2 0.001
ΔP_{y} = 0.03 kg m
now we have the uncertainty of each moment
P = Pₓ /
ΔP = ΔPₓ/P_{y} + Pₓ ΔP_{y} / P_{y}²
ΔP = 8,195 0.05 + 5.85 0.03 / 8,195²
ΔP = 0.006 + 0.0026
ΔP = 0.009 kg m
The result is
P = 14,045 ± 0.039 = (14,045 ± 0.03 ) k gm/s
Answer:32 m/s/s
Explanation: since F=M*A, F=16N, M=0.5kg, A= F/M
A=16/0.5
A=32 m/s/s
The main formula to be used here is
Force = (mass) x (acceleration).
We'll get to work in just a second. But first, I must confess to you that I see
two things happening here, and I only know how to handle one of them. So
my answer will be incomplete, but I believe it will be more reliable than the
first answer that was previously offered here.
On the <u>right</u> side ... where the 2 kg and the 3 kg are hanging over the same
pulley, those weights are not balanced, so the 3 kg will pull the 2kg down, with
some acceleration. I don't know what to do with that, because . . .
At the <em>same time</em>, both of those will be pulled <u>up</u> by the 10 kg on the other side
of the upper pulley.
I think I can handle the 10 kg, and work out the acceleration that IT has.
Let's look at only the forces on the 10 kg:
-- The force of gravity is pulling it down, with the whatever the weight of 10 kg is.
-- At the same time, the rope is pulling it UP, with whatever the weight of 5 kg is ...
that's the weight of the two smaller blocks on the other end of the rope.
So, the net force on the 10 kg is the weight of (10 - 5) = 5 kg, downward.
The weight of 5 kg is (mass) x (gravity) = (5 x 9.8) = 49 newtons.
The acceleration of 10 kg, with 49 newtons of force on it, is
Acceleration = (force) / (mass) = 49/10 = <em>4.9 meters per second²</em>
