ASK YOUR TEACHER A meter stick is found to balance at the 49.7-cm mark when placed on a fulcrum. When a 51.5-gram mass is attach

ed at the 16.0-cm mark, the fulcrum must be moved to the 39.2-cm mark for balance. What is the mass of the meter stick

Answer:

0.114 kg or 114 g

Explanation:

From the diagram attaches,

Taking the moment about the fulcrum,

sum of clockwise moment = sum of anticlockwise moment.

Wd = W'd'

Where W = weight of the mass, W' = weight of the meter rule, d = distance of the mass from the fulcrum, d' = distance of the meter rule.

make W'  the subject of the equation

W' = Wd/d'................ Equation 1

Given: W = mg = 0.0515(9.8) = 0.5047 N, d = (39.2-16) = 23.2 cm, d' = (49.7-39.2) = 10.5 cm

Substitute these values into equation 1

W' = 0.5047(23.2)/10.5

W' = 1.115 N.

But,

m' = W'/g

m' = 1.115/9.8

m' = 0.114 kg

m' = 114 g

Answer:

The x-component of F_{3} is 56.148 newtons.

Explanation:

From 1st and 2nd Newton's Law we know that a system is at rest when net acceleration is zero. Then, the vectorial sum of the three forces must be equal to zero. That is:

\vec F_{1} + \vec F_{2} + \vec F_{3} = \vec O (1)

Where:

\vec F_{1}, \vec F_{2}, \vec F_{3} - External forces exerted on the ring, measured in newtons.

\vec O - Vector zero, measured in newtons.

If we know that \vec F_{1} = (70.711,70.711)\,[N], \vec F_{2} = (-126.859, 46.173)\,[N], F_{3} = (F_{3,x},F_{3,y}) and \vec O = (0,0)\,[N], then we construct the following system of linear equations:

\Sigma F_{x} = 70.711\,N - 126.859\,N +F_{3,x} = 0\,N (2)

\Sigma F_{y} = 70.711\,N + 46.173\,N+F_{3,y} = 0\,N (3)

The solution of this system is:

F_{3,x} = 56.148\,N, F_{3,y} = -116.884\,N

The x-component of F_{3} is 56.148 newtons.

A ball rolls with a speed of 2.0m/s across a level table that is 1.0m above the floor. Upon reaching the edge of the table it fo
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:0.58 m

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the ball is u = 2.0 m/s

The height of the table is, h = 1.0 m

The ball falls in vertical direction under acceleration due to gravity.

Time taken for ball to hit the floor:

h= ut + 0.5gt² ( from the equation of motion)

1.0 m=2.0 m/s × t+0.5 × 9.8 m/s²× t²

Solving this for t,

t = 0.29 s ( we have neglected the negative value of t)

In the same time, the ball would cover a horizontal distance of :

s = u t

⇒s = 2.0 m/s×0.29 s = 0.58 m

Thus, the landing spot is 0.58 m away from the table.

05. The time required to complete one lap around a perfectly circular track having a radius of 1,835 meters is 86
likoan [24]

Answer:

v = 134.06 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of a circular track is 1,835 m

Time required to complete one lap around a perfectly circular track is 86 seconds

We need to find the car's velocity. Velocity is equal to,

v=d/t

On circular path,

v=\dfrac{2\pi r}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{2\pi \times 1835}{86}\\\\v=134.06\ m/s

So, car's velocity is 134.06 m/s.
