A thin rod of length 0.75 m and mass 0.42 kg is suspended freely from one end. It is pulled to one side and then allowed to swin

g like a pendulum, passing through its lowest position with an angular speed of 4.0 rad/s. neglecting friction and air resistance, find (a) the rod’s kinetic energy at its lowest position, (b) and how far above that position the center of mass rises.

Answer:

(A) 0.63 J  

(B) 0.15 m

Explanation:

length (L) = 0.75 m

mass (m) =0.42 kg

angular speed (ω) = 4 rad/s

To solve the questions (a) and (b) we first need to calculate the rotational inertia of the rod (I)

I = Ic + mh^{2}  

Ic is the rotational inertia of the rod about an axis passing trough its centre of mass and parallel to the rotational axis

h is the horizontal distance between the center of mass and the rotational axis of the rod

I = (\frac{1}{12})(mL^{2} ) + m([tex]\frac{L}{2})^{2}[/tex]

I = (\frac{1}{12})(0.42 x 0.75^{2} ) + ( 0.42 x ([tex]\frac{0.75}{2})^{2}[/tex])

I = 0.07875 kg.m^{2}

(A) rods kinetic energy = 0.5Iω^{2}

  = 0.5 x 0.07875 x 4^{2} = 0.63 J   0.15 m

(B) from the conservation of energy

   initial kinetic energy + initial potential energy = final kinetic energy + final potential energy

   Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf

   at the maximum height velocity = 0 therefore final kinetic energy = 0

   Ki + Ui = Uf

   Ki = Uf - Ui

 Ki =  mg(H-h)

where (H-h) = rise in the center of mass

     0.63 = 0.42 x 9.8 x (H-h)

   (H-h) = 0.15 m

A baseball has a mass of 145 g. A bat exerts a force of 18,400 N on the ball. What is the acceleration of the ball?
amid [387]

The correct formula to use for the situation given above is: F = MA, where F is the applied force, M is the mass of the object and A is the acceleration.

From the details given in the question, we are told that:

F = 18, 400N

M = 145 g = 145 / 1000 = 0.145 kg

A = ?

From the equation F = MA

A = F / M

A = 18,400 / 0.145 = 126,896.55 = 1.27 *10^5.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

car traveling on a flat (unbanked), circular track accelerates uniformly from rest with a tangential acceleration of a. The car
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

0.572

Explanation:

First examine the force of friction at the slipping point where Ff = µsFN = µsmg.

the mass of the car is unknown,

The only force on the car that is not completely in the vertical direction is friction, so let us consider the sums of forces in the tangential and centerward directions.

First the tangential direction

∑Ft =Fft =mat

And then in the centerward direction ∑Fc =Ffc =mac =mv²t/r

Going back to our constant acceleration equations we see that v²t = v²ti +2at∆x = 2at πr/2

So going backwards and plugging in Ffc =m2atπr/ 2r =πmat

Ff = √(F2ft +F2fc)= matp √(1+π²)

µs = Ff /mg = at /g √(1+π²)=

1.70m/s/2 9.80 m/s² x√(1+π²)= 0.572

What are the strength and direction of an electric field that will balance the weight of a 0.9 g plastic sphere that has been ch
Vladimir79 [104]
(a) The force exerted by the electric field on the plastic sphere is equal to
F=qE
where q=-3.4 nC=-3.4 \cdot 10^{-9} C is the charge of the sphere and E is the strength of the electric field. This force should balance the weight of the sphere:
F=mg =0.9 g
where m is the mass of the sphere and g is the gravitational acceleration.

Since the two forces must be equal, we have:
qE=mg
and so we find the intensity of the electric field
E= \frac{mg}{q}= \frac{0.9 \cdot 9.81 m/s^2}{3.4 \cdot 10^{-9} C} =2.6 \cdot 10^9 N/C

(b) Now let's find the direction of the field. The electric force must balance the weight of the sphere, which is directed downward, so the electric force should be directed upward. Since the charge is negative, the force is opposite to the electric field direction, and so the direction of the electric field is downward.
