In a Broadway performance, an 83.0-kg actor swings from a R = 3.90-m-long cable that is horizontal when he starts. At the bottom

of his arc, he picks up his 55.0-kg costar in an inelastic collision. What maximum height do they reach after their upward swing?

Answer:

h = 2.821\,m

Explanation:

The speed of the actor before the collision is found by means of the Principle of Energy Conservation:

(83\,kg)\cdot(9.807\,\frac{m}{s})\cdot (3.90\,m) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (83\,kg)\cdot v^{2}

v = \sqrt{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (3.90\,m)}

v \approx 8.746\,\frac{m}{s}

The speed after the inelastic collision is obtained by using the Principle of Momentum Conservation:

(83\,kg)\cdot (8.746\,\frac{m}{s} )+(55\,kg)\cdot (0\,\frac{m}{s} ) = (83\,kg + 55\,kg)\cdot v

v = 5.260\,\frac{m}{s}

Lastly, the maximum height is determined by using the Principle of Energy Conservation again:

\frac{1}{2}\cdot (138\,kg)\cdot (5.260\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2} = (138\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot h

h = \frac{(5.260\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }

h = 2.821\,m

The cylinder in the picture is rotating at 500 RPMs. The friction coefficients between the cylinder and block B are static=0.5 a
Tju [1.3M]

  • Coefficient of static friction = 0.5
  • Coefficient of Kinetic friction = 0.3
  • Angular velocity = 500 RPMs

<h3>The Radius of the System</h3>

Let R be the radius of cylinder

m_a + m_b = 4 + 3 = 7kg

The angular velocity is 500 RPMs

\omega ^2 = \frac{500 * 2\pi}{60} rad/s\\N = (M_a + M_b)\omega ^2 R

The normal force

f = \mu N = (M_a + M_b) g\\\mu (M_a + M_b) \omega ^2 R = M_a + M_b\\R = \frac{1}{\mu \omega ^2 R}\\\mu_s = 0.5\\R = \frac{1}{0.5 * (\frac{500 * 2\pi}{60})^2 }\\R = 0.0073m\\R = 7.3mm

Since the radius is very little for two block to execute circular motion so system will slide down.

A projectile is launched from ground level with an initial speed of 47 m/s at an angle of 0.6 radians above the horizontal. It s
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

30.67m

Explanation:

Using one of the equations of motion as follows, we can describe the path of the projectile in its horizontal or vertical displacement;

s = ut ± \frac{1}{2} at^2               ------------(i)

Where;

s = horizontal/vertical displacement

u = initial horizontal/vertical component of the velocity

a = acceleration of the projectile

t = time taken for the projectile to reach a certain horizontal or vertical position.

Since the question requires that we find the vertical distance from where the projectile was launched to where it hit the target, equation (i) can be made more specific as follows;

h = vt ± \frac{1}{2} at^2               ------------(ii)

Where;

h = vertical displacement

v = initial vertical component of the velocity = usinθ

a = acceleration due to gravity (since vertical motion is considered)

t = time taken for the projectile to hit the target

<em>From the question;</em>

u = 47m/s, θ = 0.6rads

=> usinθ = 47 sin 0.6

=> usinθ = 47 x 0.5646 = 26.54m/s

t = 1.7s

Take a = -g = -10.0m/s   (since motion is upwards against gravity)

Substitute these values into equation (ii) as follows;

h = vt - \frac{1}{2} at^2

h = 26.54(1.7) - \frac{1}{2} (10)(1.7)^2

h = 45.118 - 14.45

h = 30.67m

Therefore, the vertical distance is 30.67m
