A 2.00-kg textbook rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A cord attached to the book passes over a pulley whose diameter

is 0.150 m, to a hanging book with mass 3.00 kg. The system is released from rest, and the books are observed to move 1.20 m in 0.800 s. (a) What is the tension in each part of the cord? (b) What is the moment of inertia of the pulley about its rotation axis?

Given that,

Mass of textbook Mb = 2kg

Initially at rest Ub=0m/s

diameter of pulley d = 0.15m

Then, the radius is r = d/2 =0.15/2 = 0.075m

A hang book of mass Mh = 3kg

Initial at rest too Uh = 0m/s

Distance moved = 1.2m in t = 0.8s

Check attachment for free body diagram and better understanding

Analysis of the mass of textbook on table

Using Newton second law

ΣFx = m•ax

T1 = Mb•ax

T1 = 2•ax, ............ equation 1

Now, analysis of the hanged body

Using the same newton's law

ΣFy = m•ay

T2 — Mh•g = —3•ay,

ay is negative because it is moving in the negative direction

Then, T2 = Mh•g — 3•ay

T2 = 3×9.81 —3•ay

T2 = 29.43 — 3•ay, ............... equation 2

Now, the body moves 1.2m in t=0.8second

The initial velocity of the body is 0m/s

Using equation of motion to calculate the acceleration (a)

S=ut+½at²

1.2 = 0•t + ½ × a × 0.8²

1.2 = 0 + 0.32a

0.32a =1.2

a = 1.2/0.32

a = 3.75m/s²

Since the body are connected by an I inextensive string, their acceleration are the same i.e. ax=ay=a=3.75m/s²

So, back to equation 1

T1 = 2•ax

T1 = 7.5 N

Also, back to equation 2

T2 = 29.43 — 3•ay

T2 = 29.43 — 3 × 3.75

T2 = 29.43 — 11.25

T2 = 18.18 N

b. Torque?

Modelling the pulley as a rigid body

Then, applying equilibrium of torque

Clockwise torque = anti-clockwise torque

Σ τ = (T2-T1)r = Iα

Where α is angular acceleration

Relationship between angular acceleration and radial acceleration is given as a=αr

Therefore,

(T2-T1)r = Iα

Since α=a/r

(T2-T1) = Ia/r

Cross multiply

(T2-T1)r² = Ia

(18.18 — 7.5) × 0.075² = I(3.75)

10.68×0.075² = 3.75I

0.060075 = 3.75I

Then, I = 0.060075/3.75

I = 0.01602 kgm²

I ≈ 0.016 kgm²

Then, the moment of inertia is 0.016 kgm²

Who clarified the photoelectric effect?
sergiy2304 [10]
When visible light, X rays, gamma rays, or other forms of electromagnetic radiation are shined on certain kinds of matter, electrons are ejected. That phenomenon is known as the photoelectric effect. The photoelectric effect was discovered by German physicist Heinrich Hertz (1857–1894) in 1887. You can imagine the effect as follows: Suppose that a metal plate is attached by two wires to a galvanometer. (A galvanometer is an instrument for measuring the flow of electric current.) If light of the correct color is shined on the metal plate, the galvanometer may register a current. That reading indicates that electrons have been ejected from the metal plate. Those electrons then flow through the external wires and the galvanometer. HOPE THIS HELPED

A solid cylinder has a diameter of 17.4 mm and a length of 50.3mm. It's mass is 49g . What is its density of the cylinder in met
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

4 tonne/m³

Explanation:

ρ = m / V

ρ = 49 g / (π (17.4 mm / 2)² (50.3 mm))

ρ = 0.0041 g/mm³

Converting to tonnes/m³:

ρ = 0.0041 g/mm³ (1 kg / 1000 g) (1 tonne / 1000 kg) (1000 mm / m)³

ρ = 4.1 tonne/m³

Rounding to one significant figure, the density is 4 tonne/m³.

tester [92]

Explanation:

I think it will increase a little bit ... just image ... if the temperature is 0, the velocity will be 0 too. because the vibration of atom is so weak and the sound cant progation.
