Answer:

a) Final position is x = 0.90 m

b) Final position is x = 0.133 m

Explanation:

The workdone between two points is usually approximated as the area under the force-distance curve between those two points.

From the graph,

As at the initial position, x = 0.40 m and the corresponding F = 0.8 N,

The area from that point onwards up to the end of that particular bar = 0.8 (0.5 - 0.4) = 0.08 J

The next bar has force = 0.4 N and the width of the bar = (0.75 - 0.50) = 0.25 m

Work done under this bar = 0.4 × 0.25 = 0.1 J

Total work done from the starting position up to this point now = 0.08 + 0.1 = 0.18 J, still less than 0.21 J

So, the final position has to be on the last bar. Let the position be x. The force on the last bar = 0.2 N

0.21 = 0.18 + 0.2 (x - 0.75)

0.03 = 0.2x - 0.15

0.2x = 0.18

x = 0.9 m

Therefore, the final position of the object, to do 0.21 J worth of work, starting from x = 0.4 m is 0.90 m.

b) For this part, negative work is done, this means, we will move in the negative direction to try and trace this total work done.

From the starting point where the initial position is 0.40 m, the force here is 0.80 N

The workdone under this bar to the left is

The workdone = 0.8 (0.25 - 0.4) = - 0.12 J

Since we're tracing -0.19 J, the final position has to be on the last bar (on the left), Let the position be x. The force on the last bar on the left (could also be referred to as the first bar) = 0.60 N

- 0.19 = -0.12 + 0.6 (x - 0.25)

-0.07 = 0.6x - 0.15

0.6x = 0.08

x = (0.08/0.6) = 0.133 m

Therefore, the final position of the object, after doing -0.19 J worth of work, starting from x = 0.4 m is 0.133 m.

Hope this Helps!!!

a mass of 1.00 kg of water at temperature T is poured from a height of 0.100 km into a vessel containing water of the same tempe
Mariana [72]

Answer:

1.34352 kg

Explanation:

m_w = Mass of water falling = 1 kg

h = Height of fall = 0.1 km

\Delta T = Change in temperature = 0.1

c = Specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg K

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

m_v = Mass of water in the vessel

Here the potential energy will balance the internal energy

m_wgh=m_wc\Delta T+m_vc\Delta T\\\Rightarrow m_v=\dfrac{m_wgh-m_wc\Delta T}{c\Delta T}\\\Rightarrow m_v=\dfrac{m_wgh}{c\Delta T}-m_w\\\Rightarrow m_v=\dfrac{1\times 9.81\times 100}{4186\times 0.1}-1\\\Rightarrow m_v=1.34352\ kg

Mass of the water in the vessel is 1.34352 kg

The minimum frequency of light needed to eject electrons from a metal is called the threshold frequency, ν0. find the minimum en
shusha [124]
The energy carried by the incident light is
E=hf
where h is the Planck constant and f is the frequency of the light. The threshold frequency is the frequency that corresponds to the minimum energy needed to eject the electrons from the metal, so if we substitute the threshold frequency in the formula, we get the minimum energy the light must have to eject the electrons:
E=hf=(6.63 \cdot 10^{-34}Js)(5.64 \cdot 10^{14}s^{-1})=3.74 \cdot 10^{-19}J

A merry-go-round with a rotational inertia of 600 kg m2 and a radius of 3.0 m is initially at rest. A 20 kg boy approaches the m
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The velocity of the merry-go-round after the boy hops on the merry-go-round is 1.5 m/s

Explanation:

The rotational inertia of the merry-go-round = 600 kg·m²

The radius of the merry-go-round = 3.0 m

The mass of the boy = 20 kg

The speed with which the boy approaches the merry-go-round = 5.0 m/s

F_T \cdot r = I \cdot \alpha  = m \cdot r^2  \cdot \alpha

Where;

F_T = The tangential force

I =  The rotational inertia

m = The mass

α = The angular acceleration

r = The radius of the merry-go-round

For the merry go round, we have;

I_m \cdot \alpha_m  = I_m \cdot \dfrac{v_m}{r \cdot t}

I_m = The rotational inertia of the merry-go-round

\alpha _m = The angular acceleration of the merry-go-round

v _m = The linear velocity of the merry-go-round

t = The time of motion

For the boy, we have;

I_b \cdot \alpha_b  = m_b \cdot r^2  \cdot \dfrac{v_b}{r \cdot t}

Where;

I_b = The rotational inertia of the boy

\alpha _b = The angular acceleration of the boy

v _b = The linear velocity of the boy

t = The time of motion

When the boy jumps on the merry-go-round, we have;

I_m \cdot \dfrac{v_m}{r \cdot t} = m_b \cdot r^2  \cdot \dfrac{v_b}{r \cdot t}

Which gives;

v_m = \dfrac{m_b \cdot r^2  \cdot \dfrac{v_b}{r \cdot t} \cdot r \cdot t}{I_m} = \dfrac{m_b \cdot r^2  \cdot v_b}{I_m}

From which we have;

v_m =  \dfrac{20 \times 3^2  \times 5}{600} =  1.5

The velocity of the merry-go-round, v_m, after the boy hops on the merry-go-round = 1.5 m/s.

A solid, uniform sphere with a mass of 2.5 kg rolls without slipping down an incline plane starting from rest at a vertical heig
kolezko [41]

Answer:

1/2 m v^2 + 1/2 I ω^2 = m g h       conservation of energy

I = 2/5 m R^2     inertia of solid sphere

1/2 m v^2 + 1/5 m ω^2 R^2 = m g h

1/2 v^2 + 1/5 v^2 = g h

v^2 = 10 g h / 7 = 1.43 * 9.80 * 19 m^2/s^2 = 266 m^2/s^2

v = 16.3 m/s

v = R ω

ω = 16.3 / .6 = 27.2 / sec

Everyone's favorite flying sport disk can be approximated as the combination of a thin outer hoop and a uniform disk, both of di
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

The length of the boomerang is 0.364 m

Explanation:

The moment of inertia is:

I=\frac{1}{2} m_{d} r^{2} +m_{h} r^{2}

Where

md = 0.05 kg

mh = 0.12 kg

r = d/2 = 0.273/2 = 0.1365 m

I=\frac{0.05*(0.1365)^{2} }{2} +(0.12)*(0.1365)^{2} =2.7x10^{-3} kgm^{2}

The length of the boomerang is:

L_{b} =\sqrt{\frac{12I}{m} } =\sqrt{\frac{12*2.7x10^{-3} }{0.245} } =0.364m
