A string is attached to a ball that has a mass of 0.11 kg. A student pulls up on the string so that the ball accelerates upward

at 0.5 m/s2. What is the tension in the string? (Take the magnitude of acceleration due to gravity to be 9.8 m/s2.)
(Hint: How do all the forces involved interact with each other?)

Answer:

T=+1.133N

Explanation:

Tension and weight are forces that have opposite directions

Weight is negative (downward)

W=m*g= 0.11kg*(-9.8m/s^2)

W= -1.078N

Tension is possitive (upward)

The total force will be the sum of both (the difference taking in consideration the direction)

Ft= T+W

Also the total force is the product of the mass due to acceleration:

Ft=m*a

Ft= +0.11kg*0.5m/s^2

Ft=+0.055N (upward)

Tension will be the difference between Ft and W:

T= Ft-W

T=+0.055N-(-1.078N)

T=+1.133N

Estimate the smallest possible period of a satellite in a circular orbit around earth. (mass and radius of earth is 5.98 x 1024
myrzilka [38]
Given: Mass of earth Me = 5.98 x 10²⁴ Kg

           Radius of earth r = 6.37 x 10⁶ m

            G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/Kg²

Required: Smallest possible period T = ?

Formula: F = ma;  F = GMeMsat/r²     Centripetal acceleration ac = V²/r

               but V = 2πr/T

equate T from all equation.

F = ma

GMeMsat/r² = Msat4π²/rT²    

GMe = 4π²r³/T²

T² = 4π²r³/GMe  

T² = 39.48(6.37 x 10⁶ m)³/6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/Kg²)(5.98 x 10²⁴ Kg)

T² = 1.02 x 10²² m³/3.99 x 10¹⁴ m³/s²

T² = 25,563,909.77 s²

T = 5,056.08 seconds    or around   1.4 Hour

Each vegetables and fruits will have different response to the varying temperature and atmospheric condition of the surrounding. Some may become rotten in a shorter period of time. In this regard the price would get lower in order for the goods to get sold easily.

Compare the momentum of a 6,300-kg elephant walking 0.11 m/s and a 50-kg dolphin swimming 10.4 m/s. your answer
bogdanovich [222]
<span>First sum applied the Newton's second law motion: F = ma Force = mass* acceleration This motion define force as the product of mass times Acceleration (vs.Velocity). Since acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time, force=(mass*velocity)/time such that, (mass*velocity)/time=momentum/time Therefore we get mass*velocity=momentum Momentum=mass*velocity Elephant mass=6300 kg; velocity=0.11 m/s Momentum=6300*0.11 P=693 kg (m/s) Dolphin mass=50 kg; velocity=10.4 m/s Momentum=50*10.4 P=520 kg (m/s) The elephant has more momentum(P) because it is large.</span>

A thin, uniform rod is bent into a square of side length a. If the total mass is M, find the moment of inertia about an axis thr
Papessa [141]

Answer:

The  moment of inertia about an axis through the center and perpendicular to the plane of the square is

    I_s =  \frac{Ma^2}{3}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The length of one side of the square is  a

   The total mass of the square is  M

Generally the mass of one size of the square is mathematically evaluated as

    m_1 = \frac{M}{4}

Generally the moment of inertia of one side of the square is mathematically represented as

        I_g =  \frac{1}{12}  *  m_1 * a^2

Generally given that m_1 = m_2 = m_3 = m_4 = m it means that this moment inertia evaluated above apply to every side of the square  

Now substituting for  m_1

  So

       I _g=  \frac{1}{12}  *  \frac{M}{4} * a^2

Now according to  parallel-axis theorem the moment of inertia of one side of the square about an axis through the center and perpendicular to the plane of the square is mathematically represented as

      I_a =  I_g + m [\frac{q}{2} ]^2

=>    I_a =  I_g + {\frac{M}{4} }* [\frac{q}{2} ]^2

substituting for I_g

=>    I_a =  \frac{1}{12}  *  \frac{M}{4} * a^2 + {\frac{M}{4} }* [\frac{q}{2} ]^2

=>    I_a = \frac{Ma^2}{48} + \frac{Ma^2}{16}

=>    I_a = \frac{Ma^2}{12}

Generally the moment of inertia of the square about an axis through the center and perpendicular to the plane of the square is mathematically represented as

      I_s = 4 * I_a

=>   I_s = 4 * \frac{Ma^2}{12}

=>   I_s =  \frac{Ma^2}{3}
