We want to find the work done and power exerted, let’s start with work first.

We know that the equation for work is: W = F * D. We need to find the force which we can find by using: F = M * A.

Mass: 300kg
Acceleration (using equation from photo): 1.25 m/s^2

(The equation says x but can be used with y values)

If you are confused about how I found the acceleration; I plugged in 2.5 for the final y value, 0 for the initial y value, 0 for the initial velocity and 4 for t squared.

To solve, for acceleration it’s a matter of simple algebra. You can subtract the initial y position and the initial velocity from the final y position because they are 0. This leaves you with 2.5 m = 1/2a * t^2, from here I multiplied 2.5 by 2 to get rid of the 1/2. Now I have 5 = a * t^2. T^2 is just 2 squared, so four. Simply divide 5 by 4, and boom, you get 1.25 m/s^2.

Force = 300 kg * 1.25 m/s^2 = 375 Newtons

So, work = 500 N * 2.5 m = 1000 Joules

Power: W/t

So, Power = 1000 J / 2 seconds = 500 Watts

Hope this helps!

A 2.30-kg cylindrical rod of length 2.00 m is suspended from a horizontal bar so it is free to swing about that end. a solid sph
Marina86 [1]

Solution:


initial sphere mvr = final sphere mvr + Iω 
where I = mL²/3 = 2.3g * (2m)² / 3 = 3.07 kg·m² 
0.25kg * (12.5 + 9.5)m/s * (4/5)2m = 3.07 kg·m² * ω 
where: ω = 2.87 rad/s 

So for the rod, initial E = KE = ½Iω² = ½ * 3.07kg·m² * (2.87rad/s)² 
E = 12.64 J becomes PE = mgh, so 
12.64 J = 2.3 kg * 9.8m/s² * h 
h = 0.29 m 

h = L(1 - cosΘ) → where here L is the distance to the CM 
0.03m = 1m(1 - cosΘ) = 1m - 1m*cosΘ 
Θ = arccos((1-0.29)/1) = 44.77 º

Io experiences tidal heating primarily because __________. hints io experiences tidal heating primarily because __________. io i
maxonik [38]
Lo experiences tidal heating primarily because lo’s elliptical orbit causes the tidal force on lo to vary as it orbits the Jupiter. Thus, lo’s elliptical orbit is essential to its tidal heating. This elliptical orbit, in turn, is an end result of the orbital resonance among lo, Europa and ganymade. This orbital resonance origin lo to have a more elliptical orbit than it would because lo intermittently passes Europa and ganymade in the same orbital position. We cannot perceive tidal forces of tidal heating in lo but rather we foresee that they must occur based on the orbital characteristic of the moons and active volcanoes on lo is the observational evidence that tidal heating is significant in lo.
