A ruler of length 0.30m is pivoted at its centre. Equal and opposite forces of magnitude 2.0N are applied to the ends of the rul

er, creating a couple which create an angle of 50o with the ruler. What is the magnitude of the torque of the couple on the ruler.

Answer:

0.3858 Nm

Explanation:

The torque of the couple is the dot product of the force vector and the couple vector from 1 end of the ruler to the center. This equals to the product of their magnitude times the cosine() of the angle made by their direction:

T = \vec{F} \cdot \vec{s} = Fscos(50^0) = 2 * 0.3 * 0.643 = 0.3858 Nm

Real springs have mass. How will the true period andfrequency
Ad libitum [116K]

Explanation:

An perfect mass less spring, attached at one end and with a free mass attached at the other end, will have a distinct frequency of oscillation depending on its constant spring and mass. On the other hand, a spring with mass along its length will not have a characteristic frequency of oscillation.

Alternatively, based on its spring constant and mass per length, it will now have a wave Speed. It would be possible to use all wavelengths and frequencies, as long as the component fλ= S, where S is the spring wave size. If that sounds like longitudinal waves, like solid sound waves.

Water is pumped steadily out of a flooded basement at a speed of 5.4 m/s through a uniform hose of radius 0.83 cm. The hose pass
Gala2k [10]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the flow as a function of the volume in a certain time, as well as the potential and kinetic energy that act on the pump and the fluid.

The work done would be defined as

\Delta W = \Delta PE + \Delta KE

Where,

PE = Potential Energy

KE = Kinetic Energy

\Delta W = (\Delta m)gh+\frac{1}{2}(\Delta m)v^2

Where,

m = Mass

g = Gravitational energy

h = Height

v = Velocity

Considering power as the change of energy as a function of time we will then have to

P = \frac{\Delta W}{\Delta t}

P = \frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t}(gh+\frac{1}{2}v^2)

The rate of mass flow is,

\frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t} = \rho_w Av

Where,

\rho_w = Density of water

A = Area of the hose \rightarrow A=\pi r^2

The given radius is 0.83cm or 0.83 * 10^{-2}m, so the Area would be

A = \pi (0.83*10^{-2})^2

A = 0.0002164m^2

We have then that,

\frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t} = \rho_w Av

\frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t} = (1000)(0.0002164)(5.4)

\frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t} = 1.16856kg/s

Final the power of the pump would be,

P = \frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t}(gh+\frac{1}{2}v^2)

P = (1.16856)((9.8)(3.5)+\frac{1}{2}5.4^2)

P = 57.1192W

Therefore the power of the pump is 57.11W
