a 5-kg fish swimming at 1 m/s swallows an absent minded 1-kg fish at rest. What is the speed of the large fish immediately afyer

lunch? What would its speed be if the small dish were swimming toward it at 4 m/s?

Answer:

In first case speed of fish will be \frac{5}{6} m/s.

In the second case the speed of fish \frac{1}{6} m/s

Explanation:

Given data :-

Mass of bigger fish ( m₁ ) = 5 kg.

Mass of small fish ( m₂ ) = 1 kg.

Speed of large fish ( v₁ ) = 1 m/s

Mass of bigger fish after eating smaller one = 5 + 1 = 6 kg.

Case - 1

Momentum of bigger fish before eating the smaller fish = m₁* v₁ = 5 * 1 = 5 kg.m/s

Momentum of bigger fish after eating the larger fish = ( m₁ + m₂)*v

v = speed of bigger fish immediately after lunch.

Using the conservation of momentum.

m₁* v₁ = ( m₁ + m₂)*v

5 = 6 * v

v = \frac{5}{6}  m/s.

Case -2

Speed of small fish = 4 m/s

Momentum of bigger fish before lunch = 5 kg.m/s

Momentum of smaller fish before lunch = 4*1 = 4 kg.m/s

Net momentum before lunch = 5 - 4 = 1 kg.m/s

Momentum of bigger fish after eating the larger fish = 6 * V

Using the conservation of momentum.

1 = 6 * V

V = \frac{1}{6} m/s.

When a carpenter shuts off his circular saw, the 10.0 inch diameter blade slows from 4250 rpm to 0.00 in 4.00 s. (a) What is the
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

(a) \alpha=-111.26rad/s

(b) s=4450.6in

(c) 8.66in

Explanation:

First change the units of the velocity, using these equivalents 1rev=2\pi rad and 1 min =60s

4250rpm(\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev})(\frac{1 min}{60 s} )=445.06rad/s

The angular acceleration \alpha the time rate of change of the angular speed \omega according to:

\alpha=\frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}

\Delta  \omega=\omega_i-\omega_f

Where \omega_i is the original velocity, in the case the velocity before starting the deceleration, and \omega_f is the final velocity, equal to zero because it has stopped.

\alpha=\frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t} =\frac{\omega_i-\omega_f}{4}\frac{0-445.06}{4} =\frac{-445.06}{4} =-111.26rad/s

b) To find the distance traveled in radians use the formula:

\theta = \omega_i t + \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2

\theta = 445.06 (4) + \frac{1}{2}(-111.26) (4)^2=1780.24-890.12=890.12rad

To change this result to inches, solve the angular displacement \theta for the distance traveled s (r is the radius).

\theta=\frac{s}{r} \\s=\theta r

s=890.12(5)=4450.6in

c) The displacement is the difference between the original position and the final. But in every complete rotation of the rim, the point returns to its original position. so is needed to know how many rotations did the point in the 890.16 rad of distant traveled:

\frac{890.12}{2\pi}=141.6667

The real difference is in the 0.6667 (or 2/3) of the rotation. To find the distance  between these positions imagine a triangle formed with the center of the blade (point C), the initial position (point A) and the final position (point B). The angle \gamma=\frac{2\pi}{3}=\frac{360^o}{3}=120 is between the two sides known. Using the theorem of the cosine we can find the missing side of the the triangle(which  is also the net displacement):

c^2=a^2+b^2-2abcos(\gamma)

c^2=5^2+5^2-2(5)(5)cos(\frac{2\pi}{3} )\\c^2=25+25+25\\c^2=75\\c=5\sqrt{3}=8.66in

A long, straight wire lies in the plane of a circular coil with a radius of 0.018 m. the wire carries a current of 5.6 a and is
iris [78.8K]
(a) The net flux through the coil is zero.
In fact, the magnetic field generated by the wire forms concentric circles around the wire. The wire is placed along the diameter of the coil, so we can imagine as it divides the  coil into two emisphere. Therefore, the magnetic field of the wire is perpendicular to the plane of the coil, but the direction of the field is opposite in the two emispheres. Since the two emispheres have same area, then the magnetic fluxes in the two emispheres are equal but opposite in sign, and so they cancel out when summing them together to find the net flux.

(b) If the wire passes through the center of the coil but it is perpendicular to the plane of the wire, the net flux through the coil is still zero.
In fact, the magnetic field generated by the wire forms concentric lines around the wire, so it is parallel to the plane of the coil. But the flux is equal to
\Phi = BA \cos \theta
where \theta is the angle between the direction of the magnetic field and the perpendicular to the plane of the coil, so in this case \theta=90^{\circ} and so the cosine is zero, therefore the net flux is zero.
