Given two identical 2.2 kg masses. The first mass is moving with a velocityFind the kinetic energy of the compound system immedi

ately after the collision. Answer in units of J.v1 immediately before colliding with the second mass, which is suspended by a string of length 0.82 m . The two masses are stuck together as a result of the collision. The compound system then swings to the right and rises to the horizontal level. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2

Answer:

E_k = 0.55v_1^2 J

h = 0.0128v_1^2

where v_1 is the initial velocity of the moving block

Explanation:

We can apply the law of momentum conservation to calculate the compund velocity post-collision:

m_1v_1 +m_2v_2 = (m_1 + m_2)v

where m_1 = m_2 = 2.2 kg are the masses of block 1 (the moving block) and block 2. v_1 , v_2 are the initial velocities before collision of block 1 and 2, and v_2 = 0m/s as it's at rest initially.

2.2v_1 + 0 = (2.2 + 2.2)v

v = 2.2v_1/4.4 = 0.5v_1

So the kinetic energy right after the collision is

E_k = \frac{(m_1 + m_2)v^2}{2} = \frac{(2.2 + 2.2)(0.5v_1)^2}{2} = \frac{4.4*0.25v_1^2}{2} = 0.55v_1^2 J

To calculate the horizontal level where the compound rises to, we need to apply the law energy conservation. As the compound rises its kinetic energy is converted to potential energy:

E_p = E_k

mgh = mv^2/2

where m is the mass and h is the vertical distance traveled, v is the velocity at the bottom, and g = 9.8 m/s2 is the gravitational acceleration.We can divide both sides by m:

gh = v^2/2

h = v^2/(2g) = (0.5v_1)^2/(2g) = v_1^2/(8*9.8) = 0.0128v_1^2

Answer:

\boxed{\text{\sf \Large 3.0 s}}

Explanation:

Use distance formula

\displaystyle d=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2

u= \text{\sf  initial velocity}\\d= \text{\sf  distance}\\a= \text{\sf  acceleration}\\t= \text{\sf  time taken}

\displaystyle 18=0 \times t+\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times t^2

A 30-cm-diameter, 1.2 kg solid turntable rotates on a 1.2-cm-diameter, 450 g shaft at a constant 33 rpm. When you hit the stop s
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

frictional force = 0.52 N

Explanation:

diameter of turn table (D1) = 30 cm = 0.3 m

mass of turn table (M1) = 1.2 kg

diameter of shaft (D2) = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m

mass of shaft (M2) = 450 g = 0.45 kg

time (t) = 15 seconds

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

radius of turn table (R1) = 0.3 / 2 = 0.15 m

radius of shaft (R2) = 0.012 / 2 = 0.006 m

total moment of inertia (I) = moment of inertia of turn table + moment of inertia of shaft

I = 0.5(M1)(R1)^{2} + O.5 (M2)(R2)^{2}

I =  0.5(1.2)(0.15)^{2} + O.5 (0.45)(0.006)^{2}

I = 0.0135 + 0.0000081 = 0.0135081

ω₁ = 33 rpm = 33 x \frac{2π}{60} = 3.5 rad/s

α = -ω₁/t = -3.5 / 15 = -0.23 rad/s^{2}

torque = I x α

torque = 0.0135081 x (-0.23) = - 0.00311 N.m

torque = frictional force x R2

- 0.00311 = frictional force x 0.006

frictional force = 0.52 N

What is the formula that describes the magnitude of impulse on an object?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Option C.

Impulse = mass × change in velocity

Explanation:

Impulse is defined by the following the following formula:

Impulse = force (F) × time (t)

Impulse = Ft

From Newton's second law of motion,

Force = change in momentum /time

Cross multiply

Force × time = change in momentum

Recall:

Impulse = Force × time

Thus,

Impulse = change in momentum

Recall:

Momentum = mass x velocity

Momentum = mv

Chang in momentum = mass × change in velocity

Change in momentum = mΔv

Thus,

Impulse = change in momentum

Impulse = mass × change in velocity
