A 0.358 kg particle slides around a horizontal track. The track has a smooth, vertical outer wall forming a circle with a radius

of 1.66 m. The particle is given an initial speed of 8.19 m/s. After one revolution, its speed has dropped to 6.29 m/s because of friction with the rough floor of the track. Calculate the energy loss due to friction in one revolution.

Answer:

The energy loss due to friction in one revolution is 4.92 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of particle = 0.358 kg

Radius = 1.66 m

Initial speed =8.19 m/s

Final speed = 6.29 m/s

We need to calculate the kinetic energy

Using formula of kinetic energy

$\Delta K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v_{f}^2-v_{i}^2)$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times0.358\times(8.19^2-6.29^2)$

$\Delta K.E=4.92\ J$

Hence, The energy loss due to friction in one revolution is 4.92 J.

Answer: $V_{f}=2.96m/s$

Firstly we have to draw the Free Body Diagram (FBD) as shown in the figure attached.

Where the weight $w$ of the block has an x-component and y-component:

$w_{x}=wsin(\theta)$ (1)

$w_{y}=wcos(\theta)$ (2)

As well as the Normal Force $N$ :

$N_{x}=Nsin(\theta)$ (3)

$N_{y}=Ncos(\theta)$ (4)

In addition, we know $N=w$ , then $\sum F_{y}=0$

In the X-component:

$\sum F_{x}=m.a$

$m.a=w_{x}$ (5)

Substituting (1) in (5):

$wsin(\theta)=m.a$ (6)

In addition, we know $w=m.g$ , where $m$ is the mass of the block and $g$ the gravity acceleration, which is equal to $9.8m/{s}^{2}$

So:

$m.g.sin(\theta)=m.a$ (7)

$a=g.sin(\theta)$ (8)

$a=5.88m/{s}^{2}$ (9) >>>>This is the acceleration of the block

On the other hand, we have the following equation that expresses a <u>relation between</u> the distance $d$ with the acceleration $a$ and time $t$ :

$d=\frac{1}{2}a{t}^{2}$ (10)

We already know the value of $d$ and calculated $a$ , we have to find $t$ :

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}$ (11)

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.75m)}{5.88m/{s}^{2}}}$ (12)

$t=0.50s$ (13) >>>This is the time it takes to the block to go from the initial velocity $V_{o}$ to its final velocity $V_{f}$

If the acceleration is the variation of the velocity in time, we can use the following equation to find $V_{f}$ :

$V_{f}-V_{o}=a.t$ (13)

If $V_{o}=0$

$V_{f}=a.t$ (14)

$V_{f}=(5.88m/{s}^{2})(0.50s)$ (15)

Finally we get the value of the Final Velocity of the block:

$V_{f}=2.96m/s$

Answer:

A. nuclear fusion reactions

C. it's still hot from the big bang

Explanation:

The inside of the earth is hot due to some reasons. This heat provides the internal energy the drives processes within the earth interior. Here are some of the ways in which the heat has accumulated:

Nuclear reactions within the earth interior by fusion and other radioactive processes releases a large amount of heat.
Some heat accreted during the early formation of the earth and has not been lost till this day.
Heating due to friction

These are some of the sources of the earth's internal heat.

I've been getting this question wrong and i still don't know it.

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Laser helps in zooming an image on which it is directed or falls so that it becomes easier for a large population to understand what the teacher or guide is talking about.

For example, when Greg is giving slide show presentation to a large audience then in order to make his slides visualized by everyone in the room he uses laser.

Therefore, we can conclude that a laser best help him with the presentation as he can use the laser to enlarge images on the slides.

The main difference between speed and velocity involves

Direction. Velocity is a vector that describes both speed and direction, while speed is a scalar that describes only speed regardless of direction.
