Answer:

v_{y_0} = \frac{\frac{g}{2}t(t - 2\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}})}{\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - t}

Explanation:

We will apply the equations of kinematics to both stones separately.

First stone:

Let us denote the time spent after the second stone is thrown as 'T'.

y - y_0 = v_{y_0}(t+T) + \frac{1}{2}a(t+T)^2\\0 - h = 0 + \frac{1}{2}(-g)(t+T)^2\\(t+T)^2 = \frac{2h}{g}\\T = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}-t

Second stone:

y - y_0 = v_{y_0}T + \frac{1}{2}aT^2\\0 - h = v_{y_0}T -\frac{1}{2}gT^2\\-h = v_{y_0}(\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - t) - \frac{g}{2}(\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - t)^2\\-h = v_{y_0}(\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - t) - \frac{g}{2}(\frac{2h}{g} + t^2 - 2t\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}})\\-h = v_{y_0}\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - v_{y_0}t - h -\frac{g}{2}t^2 + gt\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}\\v_{y_0}(\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - t) = \frac{g}{2}t^2 - gt\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}\\v_{y_0} = \frac{\frac{g}{2}t(t - 2\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}})}{\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - t}

At t=0 a grinding wheel has an angular velocity of 25.0 rad/s. It has a constant angular acceleration of 26.0 rad/s2 until a cir
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

a) The total angle of the grinding wheel is 569.88 radians, b) The grinding wheel stop at t = 12.354 seconds, c) The deceleration experimented by the grinding wheel was 8.780 radians per square second.

Explanation:

Since the grinding wheel accelerates and decelerates at constant rate, motion can be represented by the following kinematic equations:

\theta = \theta_{o} + \omega_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \alpha \cdot t^{2}

\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t

\omega^{2} = \omega_{o}^{2} + 2 \cdot \alpha \cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})

Where:

\theta_{o}, \theta - Initial and final angular position, measured in radians.

\omega_{o}, \omega - Initial and final angular speed, measured in radians per second.

\alpha - Angular acceleration, measured in radians per square second.

t - Time, measured in seconds.

Likewise, the grinding wheel experiments two different regimes:

1) The grinding wheel accelerates during 2.40 seconds.

2) The grinding wheel decelerates until rest is reached.

a) The change in angular position during the Acceleration Stage can be obtained of the following expression:

\theta - \theta_{o} = \omega_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \alpha \cdot t^{2}

If \omega_{o} = 25\,\frac{rad}{s}, t = 2.40\,s and \alpha = 26\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}, then:

\theta-\theta_{o} = \left(25\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)\cdot (2.40\,s) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(26\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (2.40\,s)^{2}

\theta-\theta_{o} = 134.88\,rad

The final angular angular speed can be found by the equation:

\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t

If  \omega_{o} = 25\,\frac{rad}{s}, t = 2.40\,s and \alpha = 26\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}, then:

\omega = 25\,\frac{rad}{s} + \left(26\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (2.40\,s)

\omega = 87.4\,\frac{rad}{s}

The total angle that grinding wheel did from t = 0 s and the time it stopped is:

\Delta \theta = 134.88\,rad + 435\,rad

\Delta \theta = 569.88\,rad

The total angle of the grinding wheel is 569.88 radians.

b) Before finding the instant when the grinding wheel stops, it is needed to find the value of angular deceleration, which can be determined from the following kinematic expression:

\omega^{2} = \omega_{o}^{2} + 2 \cdot \alpha \cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})

The angular acceleration is now cleared:

\alpha = \frac{\omega^{2}-\omega_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})}

Given that \omega_{o} = 87.4\,\frac{rad}{s}, \omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s} and \theta-\theta_{o} = 435\,rad, the angular deceleration is:

\alpha = \frac{ \left(0\,\frac{rad}{s}\right)^{2}-\left(87.4\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(435\,rad\right)}

\alpha = -8.780\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}

Now, the time interval of the Deceleration Phase is obtained from this formula:

\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t

t = \frac{\omega - \omega_{o}}{\alpha}

If \omega_{o} = 87.4\,\frac{rad}{s}, \omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}  and \alpha = -8.780\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}, the time interval is:

t = \frac{0\,\frac{rad}{s} - 87.4\,\frac{rad}{s} }{-8.780\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} }

t = 9.954\,s

The total time needed for the grinding wheel before stopping is:

t_{T} = 2.40\,s + 9.954\,s

t_{T} = 12.354\,s

The grinding wheel stop at t = 12.354 seconds.

c) The deceleration experimented by the grinding wheel was 8.780 radians per square second.

In a horse cart system when would there be the smallest amount of acceleration
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

well... when the horse stops/rests, or if it is blocked by a surface or anything of solid background.

Explanation:

If it is going up a hill or slope and it just starts to move that would also be considered the smallest amount of acceleration this can go for many things when it just starts to move. but I would go for when it rests amounting to your fitting of the question.

What is surface tension? How does surface tension result from intermolecular forces? How is it related to the strength of interm
Bond [772]

Answer:

Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible.

Surface tension is caused by effects of intermolecular forces at liquid interface.

Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases.

Explanation:

  • Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible. It can also be seen as the energy required to increase the surface of a liquid by a unit amount.
  • Surface tension is caused by the mediating effects of intermolecular forces at the liquid interfaces. Example in water, surface tension is caused by the mediating effect of the force between hydrogen and oxygen molecules. Liquids tends to reduce their surface area because of inward attarction of the liquid molecules.
  • Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases. Also, surface tension decreases as intermolecular forces decreases.

A lawn roller is rolled across a lawn by a force of 107 N along the direction of the handle, which is 13.5 ◦ above the horizonta
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

22.02 m

Explanation:

given,

Force, F = 107 N

angle made with horizontal = 13.5◦

Power develop by the lawn roller = 69.4 W

time = 33 s

distance = ?

Force along horizontal= F cos θ

          = 107 cos 13.5°= 104 N

Power = \dfrac{work\ done}{time}

69.4 = \dfrac{W}{33}

W = 2290.2 J

Work done= Force x displacement

displacement= \dfrac{2290.2}{104}

                      = 22.02 m
