A loaded ore car has a mass of 950 kg. and rolls on rails ofnegligible friction. It starts from rest ans is pulled up a mineshaf

t by a cable connected to a winch. The shaft is inclined at30.0 degrees above the horizontal. the car accelerates uniformly toa speed of 2.20m/s in 12.0s and then continues at constant speed.(a) What power must the winch motor provide when the car is movingat constant speed? (b) What maximum power must the winch motorprovide? (c) What total energy has transfered out of the motor bywork by the time the car moves off the end of the track, which isof length 1250m?

(a) 10241 W

In this situation, the car is moving at constant speed: this means that its acceleration along the direction parallel to the slope is zero, and so the net force along this direction is also zero.

The equation of the forces along the parallel direction is:

F - mg sin \theta = 0

where

F is the force applied to pull the car

m = 950 kg is the mass of the car

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\theta=30.0^{\circ} is the angle of the incline

Solving for F,

F=mg sin \theta = (950)(9.8)(sin 30.0^{\circ})=4655 N

Now we know that the car is moving at constant velocity of

v = 2.20 m/s

So we can find the power done by the motor during the constant speed phase as

P=Fv = (4655)(2.20)=10241 W

(b) 10624 W

The maximum power is provided during the phase of acceleration, because during this phase the force applied is maximum. The acceleration of the car can be found with the equation

v=u+at

where

v = 2.20 m/s is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

u = 0 is the initial velocity

t = 12.0 s is the time

Solving for a,

a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{2.20-0}{12.0}=0.183 m/s^2

So now the equation of the forces along the direction parallel to the incline is

F - mg sin \theta = ma

And solving for F, we find the maximum force applied by the motor:

F=ma+mgsin \theta =(950)(0.183)+(950)(9.8)(sin 30^{\circ})=4829 N

The maximum power will be applied when the velocity is maximum, v = 2.20 m/s, and so it is:

P=Fv=(4829)(2.20)=10624 W

(c) 5.82\cdot 10^6 J

Due to the law of conservation of energy, the total energy transferred out of the motor by work must be equal to the gravitational potential energy gained by the car.

The change in potential energy of the car is:

\Delta U = mg \Delta h

where

m = 950 kg is the mass

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\Delta h is the change in height, which is

\Delta h = L sin 30^{\circ}

where L = 1250 m is the total distance covered.

Substituting, we find the energy transferred:

\Delta U = mg L sin \theta = (950)(9.8)(1250)(sin 30^{\circ})=5.82\cdot 10^6 J

A plant is thrown straight
olchik [2.2K]

The time taken for the plant to hit the ground from a distance of 7.01m and at a velocity of 8.84m/s is 1.59s.

<h3>How to calculate time?</h3>

The time taken for a motion to occur can be calculated using the following formula:

v² = u² - 2as

Where;

  • v = final velocity
  • u = initial velocity
  • s = distance
  • a = acceleration

8.84² = 0² + 2 × a × 7.01

78.15 = 14.02a

a = 5.57m/s²

V = u + at

8.84 = 0 + 5.57t

t = 1.59s

Therefore, the time taken for the plant to hit the ground from a distance of 7.01m and at a velocity of 8.84m/s is 1.59s.

Briefly answer the following questions. a) A clock is mounted on the wall. As you look at it, what is the direction of the angul
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) The direction of angular velocity vector of second hand will be along the line going into the plane of dial perpendicular to it.

b )  If the angular acceleration of a rigid body is zero, the angular velocity will remain constant.

c )  If another planet the same size as Earth were put into orbit around the Sun along with Earth  the moment of inertia of the system will increase because the mass of the system increases. Moment of inertia depends upon mass and its distribution around the axis.

d ) Increasing the number of blades on a propeller increases the moment of inertia , because both mass and mass distribution around axis of rotation increases.

e ) It is not possible  that  a body has the same moment of inertia for all possible axes because a body can not remain symmetrical about all axes possible. Sphere has same moment of inertia about all axes passing through its centre.

f ) To maximize the moment of inertia of a flywheel while minimizing its weight, the  shape and distribution of mass should be such that maximum mass of the body may be situated at far end of the body from axis of rotation . So flywheel must have thick outer boundaries and this should be

attached with axis with the help of thin rods .

g ) When the body is rotating at the same place , its translational kinetic   energy is zero but its rotational energy can be increased

at the same place.

vampirchik [111]

Answer: I = 111.69 pA

Explanation: The hall effect is all about the fact that when a semiconductor is placed perpendicularly to a magnetic field, a voltage is generated which could be measured at right angle to the current path. This voltage is known as the hall voltage.

The hall voltage of a semiconductor sensor is given below as

V = I×B/qnd

Where V = hall voltage = 1.5mV =1.5/1000=0.0015V

I = current =?,

n= concentration of charge (electron density) = 5.8×10^20cm^-3 = 5.8×10^20/(100)³ = 5.8×10^14 m^-3

q = magnitude of an electronic charge=1.609×10^-19c

B = strength of magnetic field = 5T

d = thickness of sensor = 0.8mm = 0.0008m

By slotting in the parameters, we have that

0.0015 = I × 5/5.8×10^14 × 1.609×10^-19×0.0008

0.0015 = I×5/7.446×10^-8

I = (0.0015 × 7.446×10^-8)/5

I = 111.69*10^(-12)

I = 111.69 pA
