Answer: the maximum compression force = 59.47 kip

the minimum compression force = 43.33 kip

Explanation:

In this we required to do force balance in order to get maximum and minimum compression force in the column.

the picture below explains the steps to solve the question with diagrams to ease understanding.

A hoop (I = MR2) of mass 3 kg and radius 1.1 m is rolling at a center-of-mass speed of 11 m/s. An external force does 842 J of w

Scilla [17]

Answer:

$v_f = 20 m/s$

Explanation:

Since the hoop is rolling on the floor so its total kinetic energy is given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} I\omega^2$

now for pure rolling condition we will have

$v = R\omega$

also we have

$I = mR^2$

now we will have

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}(mR^2)\frac{v^2}{R^2}$

$KE = mv^2$

now by work energy theorem we can say

$W = KE_f - KE_i$

$842 J = mv_f^2 - mv_i^2$

$842 = 3(v_f^2) - 3\times 11^2$

now solve for final speed

$v_f = 20 m/s$

A disk-shaped grindstone of mass 3.0 kg and radius 8.0 cm is spinning at 600 rev/min. After the power is shut off, a man continu

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

τ=0.060 N.m

Explanation:

By kinematics:

$\omega f = \omega o-\alpha*t$

Solving for α:

$\alpha=\frac{\omega o-\omega f}{t}$

where ωo = 600*2*π/60; ωf = 0; t=10s

$\alpha=6.283rad/s^2$

The sum of torque is:

$\tau=I*\alpha$

$\tau=M*R^2/2*\alpha$

$\tau=0.060 N.m$

A delivery truck travels with a constant velocity up an 8 slope. A 60 kg box sits on the floor of the truck and, because of sta

Blababa [14]

Explanation:

Given that,

The slope of the ramp, $\theta=8^{\circ}$

Mass of the box, m = 60 kg

(a) Distance covered by the truck up the slope, d = 300 m

Initially the truck moves with a constant velocity. We know that the net work done on the box is equal to 0 as per work energy theorem as :

$W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)=0$

u and v are the initial and the final velocity of the truck

(b) The work done on the box by the force of gravity is given by :

$W=Fd\ cos\theta$

Here, $\theta=90+8=98^{\circ}$

$W=mgd\ cos\theta$

$W=60\times 9.8\times 300\ cos(98)$

W = -24550.13 J

(c) What is the work done on the box by the normal force is equal to 0 as the angle between the force and the displacement is 90 degrees.

(d) The work done by friction is given by :

$W_f=-W$

$W_f=24550.13\ J$

Hence, this is the required solution.
