If a 6kg ball is hanging by a rope from the ceiling at rest, what is the tension of the rope?

Physics

Answer:

58.8 N

Explanation:

Since the ball is hanging at rest, the net force on the ball must be zero.

There are only two forces acting on the rope:

- Its weight, downward, given by W = mg, where m = 6 kg is the mass of the ball and g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

- the tension in the rope, T, upward

Therefore, the equation for the forces is:

T-W=0

And solving for T, we find:

T=W=mg=(6 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=58.8 N

Most volcanoes are found along a belt, called the “Ring of Fire” that encircles the Pacific Ocean. Some volcanoes, like those that form the Hawaiian Islands, occur in the interior of plates at areas called “hot spots.”

A 2.5kg object oscillates at the end of a vertically hanging light spring once every 0.65s .
sesenic [268]

Answer:

Explanation:

By the general expresion for this problem, we have:

y(t) = A*cos(w*t+∅)

since: w = 2π/T = 2π/0,65  

For the initial conditions:

y(0) = (0.17cm)*cos(w*0+∅) = + 0.17 m ---> cos(∅) = 1 ---> ∅ = 0°

Then:

A) y(t) = (0.17 m)*cos((2π/0,65)*t)

<u>B part</u>

This means, find the first solution for:

y(t) = (0.17 m)*cos((2π/0,65)*t) = 0 > (equilibrium position)

then: cos((2π/0,65)*t) = 0 ---> (2π/0,65)*t = π/2 ---> t = 0.1625 sec

<u>C part</u>

By definition: (Velocity) v = dy/dt

Then, deriving: v = dy/dt = - (0.17 m)*(2π/0,65)*sin((2π/0,65)*t)

The maximum velocity ocurrs when sin((2π/0,65)*t)  = ±1, then (in absolute value): Vmax = 1,64 m/s

<u>D part</u>

By definition: (Aceleration) A = dv/dt

Then, deriving: v = dv/dt = - (0.17 m)*(2π/0,65)²*cos((2π/0,65)*t)

The maximum aceleration ocurrs when cos((2π/0,65)*t)  = ±1, then (in absolute value): Amax = 15,88 m/s²

<u>E part</u>

<em>For the acceleration</em>, ocurres by all the solution when:

cos((2π/0,65)*t)  = cos(phase) = ±1, this means: phase = {π, 2π, 3π, ...}, all π multiples.

Then, for the position:

<em>y(t) = (0.17 m)*±1= {+0.17 m ; -0.17 m}</em>

<em>For the velocity</em>, ocurres by all the solution when:

sin((2π/0,65)*t)  = sin(phase) = ±1, this means: phase = {π/2, π, 3π/2, ...}, all π/2 multiples.

Then, for the position:

<em>y(t) = (0.17 m)*cos(phase)= 0</em>

The pulley has an efficiency of 78%. How much useful work does the pulley do if you perform 775 J of work on the pulley
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

605 J

Explanation:

Efficiency = work out / work in

0.78 = W / 775 J

W = 605 J
