A 20-kg block is held at rest on the inclined slope by a peg. A 2-kg pendulum starts at rest in a horizontal position when it is

released. The pendulum bob strikes the block at the bottom of its swing with a horizontal velocity of 15 m/s. The coefficient of restitution of the impact is e = 0.7, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the inclined surface is µk = 0.5. What distance does the block slide before stopping?

Complete Question

The diagram of this question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The distance the block slides before stopping is $d = 0.313 \ m$

Explanation:

The free body diagram for the diagram in the question is shown

From the diagram the angle is $\theta = 25 ^o$

$sin \theta = \frac{h}{d}$

Where $h = h_b - h_a$

So $d sin \theta = h_b - h_a$

From the question we are told that

The mass of the block is $m = 20 \ kg$

The mass of the pendulum is $m_p = 2 \ kg$

The velocity of the pendulum at the bottom of swing is $v_p = 15 m/s$

The coefficient of restitution is $e =0.7$

The coefficient of kinetic friction is $\mu _k = 0.5$

The velocity of the block after the impact is mathematically represented as

$v_2 f = \frac{m_b - em_p}{m_b + m_p} * v_2 i + \frac{[1 + e] m_1}{m_1 + m_2 } v_p$

Where $v_2 i$ is the velocity of the block before collision which is 0

$= \frac{20 - (0.7 * 2)}{(2 + 20)} * 0 + \frac{(1 + 0.7) * 2 }{2 + 20} * 15$

Substituting value

$v_2 f = 2.310\ m/s$

According to conservation of energy principle

The energy at point a = energy at point b

So $PE_A + KE _A = PE_B + KE_B + E_F$

Where

$PE_A$ is the potential energy at A which is mathematically represented as

$PE_A = m_b gh_a$ = 0 at the bottom

$KE _A$ is the kinetic energy at A which is mathematically represented as

$K_A = \frac{1}{2} m_b * v_2f^2$

$PE_B$ is the potential energy at B which is mathematically represented as

$PE_B = m_b gh$

From the diagram $h = h_b -h_a$

$PE_B = m_b g(h_b - h_a)$

$KE _B$ is the kinetic energy at B which is 0 (at the top )

Where is $E_F$ is the workdone against velocity which from the diagram is

$\mu_k m_b g cos 25 *d$

So

$\frac{1}{2} m_b v_2 f^2 = m_b g h_b + \mu_k m_b g cos \25 * d$

Substituting values

$\frac{1}{2} * 20 * 2.310^2 = 20 * 9.8 * d sin(25) + 0.5* 20 * 9.8 * cos 25 * d$

So

$d = 0.313 \ m$

Jupiter is made of gas(like Saturn, Uranus and Neptune). What would happen to the strength of gravity if you

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

a) The strength of gravity decreases if one moved away from Jupiter

b) The strength of gravity increases if one fell into Jupiter

Explanation:

The gravitational attraction is given by Newton law of gravitation as follows;

$Force \ (strength) \ of \ gravity = \dfrac{G \times M \times m}{R^2}$

Where;

G = The universal gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg·s²)

M = The mass of Jupiter

m = The mass of the nearby body

R = The distance between the centers of Jupiter and the body

From the equation, we have that the gravitational strength varies inversely with the square of the separation distance between two bodies

Therefore, as one moves away, R increases, and the strength of gravity reduces

Similarly as the body falls into Jupiter, R, reduces the gravitational strength increases.

Which of the following statements are true? Select all correct responses. Choose all that apply. Choose all that apply. The tota

Ne4ueva [31]

<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

-The total momentum of an isolated system is constant.

-The total momentum of any number of particles is equal to the vector sum of the momenta of the individual particles.

-The vector sum of forces acting on a particle equals the rate of change of momentum of the particle with respect to time.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Momentum is a vector quantity, and therefore we need to use vector addition when summing together the momenta of the multiple bodies which make up a system.
The vector sum of forces acting on a particle is equivalent to the rate of change of momentum of the particle with respect to time. This is according to the Newton's second Law of motion. In mathematical terms, ֿF = d ֿp/dt, that is F= ma.
According to the Law of conservation of Momentum, or a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.

A capacitor is formed from two concentric spherical conducting shells separated by vacuum. The inner sphere has radius 11.0 cm ,

viktelen [127]

Part A)
First of all, let's convert the radii of the inner and the outer sphere:
$r_A = 11.0 cm = 0.110 m$
$r_B = 16.5 cm=0.165 m$
The capacitance of a spherical capacitor which consist of two shells with radius rA and rB is
$C=4 \pi \epsilon _0 \frac{r_A r_B}{r_B- r_A}=4\pi(8.85 \cdot 10^{-12}C^2m^{-2}N^{-1}) \frac{(0.110m)(0.165m)}{0.165m-0.110m}=$
$=3.67\cdot 10^{-11}F$

Then, from the usual relationship between capacitance and voltage, we can find the charge Q on each sphere of the capacitor:
$Q=CV=(3.67\cdot 10^{-11}F)(100 V)=3.67\cdot 10^{-9}C$

Now, we can find the electric field at any point r located between the two spheres, by using Gauss theorem:
$E\cdot (4 \pi r^2) = \frac{Q}{\epsilon _0}$
from which
$E(r) = \frac{Q}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 r^2}$
In part A of the problem, we want to find the electric field at r=11.1 cm=0.111 m. Substituting this number into the previous formula, we get
$E(0.111m)=2680 N/C$

And so, the energy density at r=0.111 m is
$U= \frac{1}{2} \epsilon _0 E^2 = \frac{1}{2} (8.85\cdot 10^{-12}C^2m^{-2}N^{-1})(2680 N/C)^2=3.17 \cdot 10^{-5}J/m^3$

Part B) The solution of this part is the same as part A), since we already know the charge of the capacitor: $Q=3.67 \cdot 10^{-9}C$ . We just need to calculate the electric field E at a different value of r: r=16.4 cm=0.164 m, so
$E(0.164 m)= \frac{Q}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 r^2}=1228 N/C$

And therefore, the energy density at this distance from the center is
$U= \frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0 E^2 = \frac{1}{2} (8.85\cdot 10^{-12}C^2m^{-2}N^{-1})(1228 N/C)^2=6.68 \cdot 10^{-6}J/m^3$
