Answer:

6.8 m/s2

Explanation:

Let g = 9.8 m/s2. The total weight of both the rope and the mouse-robot is

W = Mg + mg = 1*9.8 + 2*9.8 = 29.4 N

For the rope to fails, the robot must act a force on the rope with an additional magnitude of 43 - 29.4 = 13.6 N. This force is generated by the robot itself when it's pulling itself up at an acceleration of

a = F/m = 13.6 / 2 = 6.8 m/s2

So the minimum magnitude of the acceleration would be 6.8 m/s2 for the rope to fail

Tom has two pendulums with him. Pendulum 1 has a ball of mass 0.2 kg attached to it and has a length of 5 m. Pendulum 2 has a ba
mars1129 [50]

Given Information:

Pendulum 1 mass = m₁ = 0.2 kg

Pendulum 2 mass = m₂ = 0.6 kg

Pendulum 1 length = L₁ = 5 m

Pendulum 2 length = L₂ = 1 m

Required Information:

Affect of mass on the frequency of the pendulum = ?

Answer:

The mass of the ball will not affect the frequency of the pendulum.

Explanation:

The relation between period and frequency of pendulum is given by

f = 1/T

The period of pendulum is given by

T = 2π√(L/g)

Where g is the acceleration due to gravity and L is the length of the string

As you can see the period (and frequency too) of pendulum is independent of the mass of the pendulum. Therefore, the mass of the ball will not affect the frequency of the pendulum.

Bonus:

Pendulum 1:

T₁ = 2π√(L₁/g)

T₁ = 2π√(5/9.8)

T₁ = 4.49 s

f₁ = 1/T₁

f₁ = 1/4.49

f₁ = 0.22 Hz

Pendulum 2:

T₂ = 2π√(L₂/g)

T₂ = 2π√(1/9.8)

T₂ = 2.0 s

f₂ = 1/T₂

f₂ = 1/2.0

f₂ = 0.5 Hz

So we can conclude that the higher length of the string increases the period of the pendulum and decreases the frequency of the pendulum.

What type of energy does the box have after it is done being pulled?
Ksivusya [100]
Assuming that the box is moving when it is being pulled, Work is done on the box.

So work is the Force times the distance

W=Fd

But what is work actually ? When something moves due to force over some change in distance, it have energy.

But where does this energy come from ? Does it magically appear ? The energy comes from the applied force onto the box.

So the energy have been transferred. And it’s like that throughout the universe

Now to save time, I’ll just tell you the answer: kinetic energy
