Answer:

a) T = 608.22 N

b) T = 608.22 N

c) T = 682.62 N

d) T = 533.82 N

Explanation:

Given that the mass of gymnast is m = 62.0 kg

Acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.81 m/s²

Thus; The weight of the gymnast is acting downwards and tension in the string acting upwards.

So;

To calculate the tension T in the rope if the gymnast hangs motionless on the rope; we have;

T = mg

= (62.0 kg)(9.81 m/s²)

= 608.22 N

When the gymnast climbs the rope at a constant rate tension in the string is

= (62.0 kg)(9.81 m/s²)

= 608.22 N

When the gymnast climbs up the rope with an upward acceleration of magnitude

a = 1.2 m/s²

the tension in the string is  T - mg = ma (Since acceleration a is upwards)

T = ma + mg

= m (a + g )

= (62.0 kg)(9.81 m/s² + 1.2  m/s²)

= (62.0 kg) (11.01 m/s²)

= 682.62 N

When the gymnast climbs up the rope with an downward acceleration of magnitude

a = 1.2 m/s² the tension in the string is  mg - T = ma (Since acceleration a is downwards)

T = mg - ma

= m (g - a )

= (62.0 kg)(9.81 m/s² - 1.2 m/s²)

= (62.0 kg)(8.61 m/s²)

= 533.82 N

A 0.260 m radius, 525 turn coil is rotated one-fourth of a revolution in 4.17 ms, originally having its plane perpendicular to a
Sophie [7]

Answer:

B = 0.37T

Explanation:

In order to calculate the needed magnitude of the magnetic force you use the following formula, which calculate the induced emf of the solenoid when there is a change in the magnetic flux:

emf=-N\frac{\Delta \Phi_B}{\Delta t}=-N\frac{\Delta (BAcos\theta)}{\Delta t}       (1)

emf: induced voltage in the solenoid = 10,000V

N: turns of the solenoid = 525

ФB: magnetic flux

B: magnitude of the magnetic field = ?

A: cross-sectional area of the solenoid = π*r^2

r: radius of the cross-sectional area = 0.260m

Δt: interval time of the change of the magnetic flux = 4.17ms = 4.17*10^-3s

First, you have the magnetic field direction perpendicular to the plane of the solenoid, after, the angle between them is 90°  (quarter of a revolution)

In the equation (1) the only parameter that changes on time is the angle, then, you can solve for B from the equation (1):

emf=-NBA\frac{cos(90\°)-cos(0\°)}{\Delta t}=\frac{NBA}{\Delta t}\\\\B=\frac{(\Delta t)(emf)}{NA}=\frac{(\Delta t)(emf)}{N(\pi r^2)}\\\\

Finally, you replace the values of the parameters to calculate B:

B=\frac{(4.17*10^{-3}s)(10000V)}{(525)(\pi(0.260m)^2)}=0.37T

The strength of the magnetic field is 0.37T

A block of mass 200 g is attached at the end of a massless spring of spring constant 50 N/m. The other end of the spring is atta
alexira [117]

Answer:

Explanation:

At the lowest point velocity is zero

loss of potential energy = gain of spring energy

= mgh = 1/2 k h² , h is vertical downward displacement , k is spring constant

2 mg = k h

h = 2mg / k

= (2 x .2 x 9.8) / 50

= .0784 m

P E ( gravitational) = - mgh

= - .2 x 9.8 x .0784

= -  .1536 J

spring PE = + .1536 J

Total PE = 0

b )

At mid point ie at h = .0392 m

gravitational PE = .2 X 9.8 X .0392

= - .0768 J

Elastic PE = 1/2 X 50 X .0392² = .0384 J

Total =  - .0768 J + .0384 J

= - .0384 J

At mid point total energy = 0

- .0384 + KE = 0

KE = .0384 J

c )

1/2 m v ² = .0384

v² = 2 x .0384 / .2

= .384

v = .6196 m / s

62 cm / s

A car travels due east with a speed of 38.0 km/h. Raindrops are falling at a constant speed vertically with respect to the Earth
DiKsa [7]

Answer: 116.926 km/h

Explanation:

To solve this we need to analise the relation between the car and the Raindrops. The cars moves on the horizontal plane with a constant velocity.

Car's Velocity (Vc) = 38 km/h

The rain is falling perpedincular to the horizontal on the Y-axis. We dont know the velocity.

However, the rain's traces on the side windows makes an angle of 72.0° degrees. ∅ = 72°

There is a relation between this angle and the two velocities. If the car was on rest, we will see that the angle is equal to 90° because the rain is falling perpendicular. In the other end, a static object next to a moving car shows a horizontal trace, so we can use a trigonometric relation on this case.

The following equation can be use to relate the angle and the two vectors.

Tangent (∅) = Opposite (o) / adjacent (a)

Where the Opposite will be the Rain's Vector that define its velocity and the adjacent will be the Car's Velocity Vector.

Tan(72°) = Rain's Velocity / Car's Velocity

We can searching for the Rain's Velocity

Tan(72°) * Vc = Rain's Velocity

Rain's Velocity = 116.926 km/h
