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 2,000 kg car starts from rest and coasts down from the top of a 5.00 m long driveway that is sloped at an angel of 20o with th
ehidna [41]

Answer:

The speed at the bottom of the driveway is3.67m/s.

Explanation:

Height,h= 5sin20°= 1.71m

Potential energy PE=mgh= 2000×9.8×1.71

PE= 33516J

KE= PE- Fk ×d

0.5mv^2= 33516 - (4000×5)

0.5×2000v^2= 33516 - 20000

1000v^2= 13516

v^2= 13516/1000

v =sqrt 13.516

v =3.67m/s

When measuring accelerations with three different graphs (x-t, v-t, a-t) which gives the most reliable results and why?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

the best graph to find the acceleration is v-t since calculating the slope averages the different experimental errors.

Explanation:

The different graphics depending on time give various information, let's examine what we can get from some

Graph of x -t. from this graph we can obtain the speed through the slope, but the acceleration is not directly obtainable

v-t chart. We can get the acceleration not through the slope and the distance traveled by the area under the curve. Obtaining acceleration is very accurate since it is an average that avoids possible errors in measurements. This is the best graph to find the acceleration

Graph of a-t In this graph the acceleration is a point on the Y axis, it gives some errors because it depends strongly on the possible experimental errors.

In conclusion, the best graph to find the acceleration is v-t since calculating the slope averages the different experimental errors.

What is the law of variation of the period T of a simple pendulum
DIA [1.3K]
The period of a simple pendulum is given by:
T=2 \pi  \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }
where L is the length of the pendulum and g=9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration. As we can see, the period of a simple pendulum depends only on its length.
