Four objects are situated along the y axis as follows: a 1.99-kg object is at 2.99 m, a 2.96-kg object is at 2.57 m, a 2.43-kg o

Dominik [7]

Answer:

The center of mass for the object is $y_c = 1.063 \ m$ from the origin

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the first object is $m_1 = 1.99 \ kg$

The position of first object with respect to origin $y_1 = 2.99 \ m$

The mass of the second object is $m_2 = 2.96 \ kg$

The position of second object with respect to origin $y_2 = 2.57 \ m$

The mass of the third object is $m_3 = 2.43 \ kg$

The position of third object with respect to origin $y_3 = 0 \ m$

The mass of the fourth object is $m_3 = 3.96 \ kg$

The position of fourth object with respect to origin $y_3 = -0.502 \ m$

Generally the center of mass of the object along the x-axis is zero because all the mass lie on the y axis

Generally the location of the center mass of the object is mathematically represented as

$y_c = \frac{m_1 * y_1 + m_2 * y_2 + m_3 * y_3 + m_4 * y_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}$

=> $y_c = \frac{1.99 * 2.99 + 2.96 * 2.57 + 2.43 * 0 + 3.96 * (-0.502)}{1.99+ 2.96 + 2.43 + 3.96}$

=> $y_c = 1.063 \ m$

A 15 m uniform ladder weighing 500 N rests against a frictionless wall. The ladder makes a 60° angle with horizontal. (a) Find t

scoray [572]

Answer:

a) F₁ = 267.3 N, N₁ = 1300 N, b) μ = 0.324

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the rotational equilibrium condition, we have a reference system is the floor and the anticlockwise rotations as positive, in the adjoint we can see a diagram of the forces

let's use subscript 1 for the ladder and 2 for the firefighter

∑ τ = 0

-W₁ x₁ - W₂ x₂ + N₁ y = 0

N₁ = $\frac{W_1 x_1 + W_2 x_2}{y}$ (1)

the center of mass of the ladder is at its geometric center,

d = L / 2 = 15/2 = 7.5 m

cos 60 = x₁ / d₁

x₁ = d₁ cos 60

x₁ = 7.5 cos 60

x₁ = 3.75 m

for the firefighter d₂ = 4 m

cos 60 = x₂ / d₂

x₂ = d₂ cos 60

x₂ = 4 cos 60 = 2 m

for the fulcrum d₃ = 15 m

sin 60 = y / d₃

y = d₃ sin 60

y = 15 sin 60

y = 13 m

we look for the Normal by substituting in equation 1

N₂ = $\frac{500 \ 3.75 \ + 800 \ 2}{13}$

N₂ = 267.3 N

now let's use the translational equilibrium relations

X axis

F₁ - N₂ = 0

F₁ = N₂

F₁ = 267.3 N

Axis y

N₁ - W₁ -W₂ = 0

N₁ = W₁ + W₂

N₁ = 500 + 800

N₁ = 1300 N

b) for this case change the firefighter's distance d₂ = 9 m

x₂ = 9 cos 60

x₂ = 4.5 m

we substitute in 1

N₂ = \frac{500 \ 3.75 \ + 800 \ 4.5}{13}

N₂ = 421.15 N

of the translational equilibrium equation on the x-axis

fr = F₁ = N₂

fr = 421.15 N

friction force has the expression

fr = μ N

in this case the reaction of the Earth to the support of the ladder is N1 = 1300N

μ = fr / N₁

μ = 421.15 / 1300

μ = 0.324
