Using a rope that will snap if the tension in it exceeds 387 N, you need to lower a bundle of old roofing material weighing 449

N from a point 6.1 m above the ground. Obviously if you hang the bundle on the rope, it will snap. So, you allow the bundle to accelerate downward. (a) What magnitude of the bundle’s acceleration will put the rope on the verge of snapping? (b) At that acceleration, with what speed would the bundle hit the ground

Answer:

(a) a\approx1.4 m.s^{-2}

(b) v\approx 4.133 m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

  • Limiting tension of snapping of the rope, T= 387 N
  • Weight of the object to be lifted, w=449 N
  • ∴mass, \Rightarrow m= 45.8163 kg
  • height of letting down the weight, h = 6.1 m

(a)

Now,

The force to be compensated for  being on the verge of snapping:

(T-w) = 62 N

Therefore, we need to produce and acceleration equivalent to the above force.

∵F=m.a

62=45.8163\times a

a= \frac{62}{45.8163}

a\approx 1.4 m.s^{-2}

(b)

From the equation of motion ,we have:

v^{2} =u^{2} +2a.s....................(2)

where:

u= initial velocity= 0 (here, starting from rest)

v= final velocity = ?

a= 1.4 m.s^{-2}

s= displacement =h =6.1 m

Now, putting the values in eq. (2)

v^2= 0^2 + 2\times 1.4\times 6.1

v\approx 4.133 m.s^{-1}        is the velocity with which the body will hit the ground in the given conditions.

We would like to use the relation V(t)=I(t)RV(t)=I(t)R to find the voltage and current in the circuit as functions of time. To d
drek231 [11]

Answer:

V = -RC (dV/dt)

Solving the differential equation,

V(t) = V₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

where k = RC

Explanation:

V(t) = I(t) × R

The Current through the capacitor is given as the time rate of change of charge on the capacitor.

I(t) = -dQ/dt

But, the charge on a capacitor is given as

Q = CV

(dQ/dt) = (d/dt) (CV)

Since C is constant,

(dQ/dt) = (CdV/dt)

V(t) = I(t) × R

V(t) = -(CdV/dt) × R

V = -RC (dV/dt)

(dV/dt) = -(RC/V)

(dV/V) = -RC dt

∫ (dV/V) = ∫ -RC dt

Let k = RC

∫ (dV/V) = ∫ -k dt

Integrating the the left hand side from V₀ (the initial voltage of the capacitor) to V (the voltage of the resistor at any time) and the right hand side from 0 to t.

In V - In V₀ = -kt

In(V/V₀) = - kt

(V/V₀) = e⁻ᵏᵗ

V = V₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

V(t) = V₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

Hope this Helps!!!

On a very muddy football field, a 110kg linebacker tackles an 85kg halfback. Immediately before the collision, the linebacker is
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

A. the magnitude of the velocity at which the two players move together immediately after the collision is 7.9m/s

B. The direction of this velocity is due north as the linebacker since he has obviously has more momentum

Explanation:

This problem bothers on the inelastic collision

Given data

Mass of linebacker m1= 110kg

Mass of halfbacker m2= 85kg

Velocity of linebacker v1= 8.8m/s

Velocity of halfbacker v2= 7.2m/s

Applying the principle of conservation of momentum for inelastic collision we have

m1v1 +m2v2= (m1+m2)v

Where v is the common velocity after impact

Substituting our data into the expression we have

110*8.5+85*7.2= (110+85)v

935+612=195v

1547=195v

v=1547/195

v=7.9m/s

Momentum of linebacker after impact = 110*7.9= 869Ns

Momentum of halfbacker after impact = 85*7.9= 671.5Ns

the direction after impact is due north since the linebacker has greater momentum
