Wind farms, solar collectors, and nuclear power plants generate no pollution.

But wind farms make noise, wind and solar are both hazardous to birds, and there's no known means of disposing of nuclear plant waste that's completely safe.

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

at x=0

T_{l}=W*L/L

and

T_{l}=W-T_{r}

Explanation:

Solve for the tension in the left rope, TL, in the special case that x=0. Be sure the result checks with your intuition. Express your answer in terms of W and the dimensions L and x. Not all of these variables may show up in the solution.

moments is the product of force and the perpendicular distance in line of the action of the given force

from the principle of moments which states that the sum of clockwise moments ,must be equal to the sum of anticlockwise moments.

also, sum of upward forces must be equal to sum of downward forces

Going by the aforementioned,

taking moments about T_{r}

W*(l-x)=T_{l}*(L)

T_{l}=W*(L-x)/(L)..............1

at x=0

T_{l}=W*L/L

also

T_{l}+ T_{r}=W

T_{l}=W-T_{r}

Select the correct answer. G = 6.67 × 10-11 N·m2/kg2 Me = 5.598 × 1024 kg What is the velocity of an Earth satellite that is in
zzz [600]
Centripetal force of satellite = gravitational force between earth and the satellite
(m•v^2)/r = (G•Me•m)/r^2
v^2 = (G•Me)/r
v^2 = 6.67x10^-11 x 5.598x10^24 / 7.5x10^7
v = 2231 m/s

so answer is B

Consider the video you just watched. Suppose we replace the original launcher with one that fires the ball upward at twice the s
sveta [45]

Answer:

b

Explanation:

Given:

- The ball is fired at a upward initial speed v_yi = 2*v

- The ball in first experiment was fired at upward initial speed v_yi = v

- The ball in first experiment was as at position behind cart = x_1

Find:

How far behind the cart will the ball land, compared to the distance in the original experiment?

Solution:

- Assuming the ball fired follows a projectile path. We will calculate the time it takes for the ball to reach maximum height y. Using first equation of motion:

                                      v_yf = v_yi + a*t

Where, a = -9.81 m/s^2 acceleration due to gravity

            v_y,f = 0 m/s max height for both cases:

For experiment 1 case:

                                     0 = v - 9.81*t_1

                                      t_1 = v / 9.81

For experiment 2 case:

                                     0 = 2*v - 9.81*t_2

                                      t_2 = 2*v / 9.81

The total time for the journey is twice that of t for both cases:

For experiment 1 case:

                                     T_1 = 2*t_1

                                     T_1 = 2*v / 9.81

For experiment 2 case:

                                     T_2 = 2*t_2

                                     T_2 = 4*v / 9.81

- Now use 2nd equation of motion in horizontal direction for both cases:

                                     x = v_xi*T

For experiment 1 case:

                                     x_1 = v_x1*T_1

                                    x_1 = v_x1*2*v / 9.81

For experiment 2 case:

                                     x_2 =  v_x2*T_2

                                    x_2 = v_x2*4*v / 9.81

- Now the x component of the velocity for each case depends on the horizontal speed of the cart just before launching the ball. Using conservation of momentum we see that both v_x2 = v_x1 after launch. Since the masses of both ball and cart remains the same.

- Hence; take ratio of two distances x_1 and x_2:

                        x_2 / x_2 = v_x2*4*v / 9.81 * 9.81 / v_x1*2*v

Simplify:

                        x_1 / x_2 = 2  

- Hence, the amount of distance traveled behind the cart in experiment 2 would be twice that of that in experiment 1.

Conservation of Momentum
aksik [14]

Hi there!

This collision is an example of an inelastic collision since kinetic energy is lost from the collision.

We can represent this using the conservation of momentum formula:

m1v1 + m2v1 = m1vf + m2vf

Where:

m1 = blue ball

m2 = green ball

We know that the final velocity of the blue ball is 0, so:

m1v1 + m2v1 = m2vf

Rearrange to solve for the speed of the green ball:

(m1v1 + m2v1)/m2 = vf

Plug in given values:

((0.15 · 3) + (0.15 · 2)) / 0.15 = 5 m/s
