A uniform solid sphere of mass M and radius R is free to rotate about a horizontal axis through its center. A string is wrapped

around the sphere and is attached to an object of mass m. Assume that the string does not slip on the sphere. (Use the following as necessary: M, m, and g.) Find the acceleration of the object.

Answer:

a = \frac{mg}{m + \frac{2}{5}M}

Explanation:

To calculate the Acceleration and the tension of the object, we start by considering the value of the Tension through its moment of Inertia and Acceleration based on the angular velocity

\tau = I\alpha = Tension(T)*R

And a = \alpha R

Replacing,

T*R = I\alpha = (\frac{2}{5} MR^2)*\frac{a}{R})\\T*R = \frac{2}{5}MaR\\T = \frac{2}{5}Ma

The following forces occur in the body,

mg - T = ma

By this way we have the acceleration

mg - \frac{2}{5}Ma = ma

a(m + \frac{2}{5})M) = mg

a = \frac{mg}{m + \frac{2}{5}M}

What is the voltage across an 8.00 nm–thick membrane if the electric field strength across it is 5.50 MV/m?
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

0.044 V

Explanation:

E = Electric field = 5.5\times 10^6\ V/m

d = Thickness of membrane = 8 nm

When the electric field strength is multiplied by the membrane thickness we get the voltage

Voltage across a gap is given by

V=Ed\\\Rightarrow V=5.5\times 10^6\times 8\times 10^{-9}\\\Rightarrow V=0.044\ V

The voltage across the membrane is 0.044 V

A stalled car is being pushed up a hill at constant velocity by three people. the net force on the car is
frosja888 [35]
I think you need more information like the force of gravity and the force of the three people. Once you combine the two, however, you should get the net force.

A 3.00-kg ball swings rapidly in a complete vertical circle of radius 2.00 m by a light string that is fixed at one end. The bal
Brut [27]

Answer:

  • The gravity does a work of - 117.6 Joules.
  • The tension does not do work as the force is perpendicular to the direction of motion at any point in the trajectory.

Explanation:

The work done by the gravity simply is the difference in gravitational potential energy multiplied by -1:

W_g = - \Delta E_p = - (mgh_f  - m g h_i)

where m is the mass of the ball, g is the acceleration due to gravity, h_f is the final height and h_i is the initial height.

So, if the radius is 2.00 m, then the difference of height will be 4 meters:

W_g = - mg (h_f - h_i)

W_g = - 3.00 \ kg \ 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} \ 4 \m

W_g = - 117.6 Joules

As the tension is perpendicular to the velocity of the ball, the force is always perpendicular to the direction of motion. So, the differential of work will be:

dW = \vec{F}  d\vec{r} = 0

At which of the following points does a roller coaster have the most potential energy? As it is going down a hill. At the top of
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

At the top of the hill.

Explanation:

As the roller coaster goes up the hill, kinetic energy (K.E) decreases, gravitational potential energy (G.P.E) increases .

As it reach the top of the hill, K.E becomes zero and G.P.E reaches <em>m</em><em>a</em><em>x</em><em>i</em><em>m</em><em>u</em><em>m</em> .

As it goes down the hill, K.E starts to increase and G.P.E decrease .

At the bottom of the hill, K.E reaches <em>maximum</em> and G.P.E becomes zero .

(Correct me it I am wrong)
