N and 125 N are applied to the disk, as the drawing illustrates. (a) What is the net torque produced by the two forces? (Assume counterclockwise is the positive direction.)(b) What is the angular acceleration of the disk? rad/s2

Answer:

a. -12.7 Nm

b. -7.9 rad/s^2

Explanation:

I have attached an illustration of a solid disk with the respective forces applied, as stated in this question.

Forces applied to the solid disk include:

F_1 = 90.0N\\F_2 = 125N

Other parameters given include:

Mass of solid disk, M = 24.3kg

and radius of solid disk, r = 0.364m

a.) The formula for determining torque (T), is T = r * F

Hence the net torque produced by the two forces is given as a summation of both forces:

T = T_{125} + T_{90}\\= -r(125)sin90 + r(90)sin90\\= 0.364(-125 + 90)\\= -12.7 Nm

b.)  The angular acceleration of the disk can be found thus:

using the formula for the Moment of Inertia of a solid disk;

I_{disk} = {\frac{1}{2}}Mr^2

where M = Mass of solid disk

and r = radius of solid disk

We then relate the torque and angular acceleration (\alpha) with the formula:

T = I\alpha \\-12.7 = ({\frac{1}{2}}Mr^2)\alpha \\\alpha  = -{\frac{12.7}{1.61}} = -7.9 rad/s^2

James threw a ball vertically upward with a velocity of 41.67ms-1 and after 2 second David threw a ball vertically upward with a
Reptile [31]

Answer:

When have passed 3.9[s], since James threw the ball.

Explanation:

First, we analyze the ball thrown by James and we will find the final height and velocity by the time two seconds have passed.

We'll use the kinematics equations to find these two unknowns.

y=y_{0} +v_{0} *t+\frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2} \\where:\\y= elevation [m]\\y_{0}=initial height [m]\\v_{0}= initial velocity [m/s] =41.67[m/s]\\t = time passed [s]\\g= gravity [m/s^2]=9.81[m/s^2]\\Now replacing:\\y=0+41.67 *(2)-\frac{1}{2} *(9.81)*(2)^{2} \\\\y=63.72[m]\\

Note: The sign for the gravity is minus because it is acting against the movement.

Now we can find the velocity after 2 seconds.

v_{f} =v_{o} +g*t\\replacing:\\v_{f} =41.67-(9.81)*(2)\\\\v_{f}=22.05[m/s]

Note: The sign for the gravity is minus because it is acting against the movement.

Now we can take these values calculated as initial values, taking into account that two seconds have already passed. In this way, we can find the time, through the equations of kinematics.

y=y_{o} +v_{o} *t-\frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2} \\y=63.72 +22.05 *t-\frac{1}{2} *(9.81)*t^{2} \\\\y=63.72 +22.05 *t-4.905*t^{2} \\

As we can see the equation is based on Time (t).

Now we can establish with the conditions of the ball launched by David a new equation for y (elevation) in function of t, then we match these equations and find time t

y=y_{o} +v_{o} *t+\frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2} \\where:\\v_{o} =55.56[m/s] = initial velocity\\y_{o} =0[m]\\now replacing\\63.72 +22.05 *t-(4.905)*t^{2} =0 +55.56 *t-(4.905)*t^{2} \\63.72 +22.05 *t =0 +55.56 *t\\63.72 = 33.51*t\\t=1.9[s]

Then the time when both balls are going to be the same height will be when 2 [s] plus 1.9 [s] have passed after David throws the ball.

Time = 2 + 1.9 = 3.9[s]

A 3,000 kg truck moving at +10 m/s hits a 1,000 kg parked car which moves off at +15 m/s What is the velocity of
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

v₃ = 5 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the definition of linear momentum, which tells us that momentum is equal to the product of mass by Velocity.

P = m*v

where:

P = linear momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

We must also clarify that the momentum is preserved i.e. it is equal before the collision and after the collision

Pbeforecollision = Paftercollision

(m₁*v₁) + (m₂*v₂) = (m₁*v₃) + (m₂*v₄)

where:

m₁ = mass of the truck = 3000 [kg]

v₁ = velocity of the truck = 10 [m/s]

m₂ = mass of the car = 1000 [kg]

v₂ = velocity of the car before the collision = 0 (the car is parked)

v₃ = velocity of the truck after the collision [m/s]

v₄ = velocity of the car after the collision = 15 [m/s]

(3000*10) + (1000*0) = (3000*v₃) + (1000*15)

30000 = 3000*v₃ + 15000

3000*v₃ = 30000 - 15000

3000*v₃ = 15000

v₃ = 5 [m/s]

Unlike a roller coaster, the seats in a Ferris wheel swivel so that the rider is always seated upright. An 80-ft-diameter Ferris
telo118 [61]

Answer:

a

   F_A  =425.42 \ N

b

  F_A_H  = 358.58 \ N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The diameter of the Ferris wheel is  d  =  80 \ ft =  \frac{80}{3.281} =  24.383

    The  period of the Ferris wheel is  T  =  24 \ s

     The  mass of the passenger is  m_g  =  40 \ kg

The  apparent weight of the passenger at the lowest point is mathematically represented as

           F_A_L  =  F_c  + W

Where  F_c is the centripetal force on the passenger,  which is mathematically represented as

         F_c  =m *  r *  w^2

Where w is the angular velocity which is mathematically represented as

         w =  \frac{2* \pi   }{T}

substituting values

         w =  \frac{2* 3.142 }{24}

         w =  0.2618 \ rad/s

and  r  is the radius which is evaluated as r =  \frac{d}{2}

   substituting values

         r =  \frac{24.383}{2}

         r = 12.19 \ ft

So

          F_c  = 40 * 12.19* (0.2618)^2

          F_c  =  33.42 \ N

W is the weight which is mathematically represented as

           W =  40 * 9.8

           W =  392 \ N

So

         F_A    =  33.42 + 392

         F_A  =425.42 \ N

The  apparent weight of the passenger at the highest point is mathematically represented as

          F_A_H  =  W- F_c

substituting values

         F_A_H  = 392 -  33.42

         F_A_H  = 358.58 \ N
