An object of mass 4 kg is initially at rest on a frictionless ice rink. It suddenly explodes into three pieces (I have no idea w

hy it happened!). One chunk of mass 1 kg slides across the ice with a velocity 1.2 ms^-1i and another chunk of mass 2kg slides across the ice with a velocity 0.8 m.s^-1j. Determine the velocity of the third chunk in magnitude angle form.

We have two events that occurred on different axes, the most convenient is to perform the operations on the two axes, and then look for the resulting force.

Our values are,

m_1=1kg\\m_2 = 2kg\\v_1' = 1.2m/s\\v_1''= 0.8m/s

PAR A) For the X axis, we apply momentum conservation, which is given by,

Total momentum before = Total momentum After

We start from rest, so in X the initial speeds are 0,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v_1'+m_2v_2'

0+0 = (1*1.2)+(1)v_2'

V_2' = -1.2m/s

Now we apply for the conservation of the moment, it is part of the rest, so,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v_1''+m_2v_2''

0+0=2*0.8+1*v_2''

v_2'' = -1.6

To find the total speed, we simply apply pitagoras,

V = \sqrt{v_2'^2+v_2^2''}

V = \sqrt{1.2^2+1.6^2}

V = 2m/s

PART B) The address is given by,

tan\theta = \frac{V_2''}{V_2'}

\theta = tan^{-1} \frac{V_2''}{V_2'}

\theta = tan^{-1} \frac{1.6}{1.2}

\theta = 53.31\° (Below -x axis)

Describe the parts of a lever. Include the following terms (fulcrum, resistance arm and effort arm).
yarga [219]

Answer:

hi here is your answer and this is a very important question.

Explanation:

A lever is a rigid bar with three parts: the fixed point around which the bar pivots is the fulcrum: the effort arm (in-lever arm) is the part of the lever to which force is applied; the resistance arm (out-lever arm) is the part that bears the load to be moved.

The spring is unstretched at the position x = 0. under the action of a force p, the cart moves from the initial position x1 = -8
hammer [34]
Missing figure and missing details can be found here:
<span>http://d2vlcm61l7u1fs.cloudfront.net/media%2Fdd5%2Fdd5b98eb-b147-41c4-b2c8-ab75a78baf37%2FphpEgdSbC....
</span>
Solution:
(a) The work done by the spring is given by
W= \frac{1}{2} k (\Delta x)^2 &#10;
where k is the elastic constant of the spring and \Delta x is the stretch between the initial and final position. Since x1=-8 in=-0.203 m and x2=5 in=0.127 m, we have
W= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 500 N/m \cdot (0.127m-(-0.203m))^2=27.25 J

(b) The work done by the weight is the product of the component of the weight parallel to the inclined plane and the displacement of the cart:
W_W = -F_{//} (x_2 -x_1)
where  the negative sign is given by the fact that F_{//} points in the opposite direction of the displacement of the cart, and where
F_{//}=m g sin 15^{\circ}=6 kg \cdot 9.81m/s^2 \cdot sin 15^{\circ}=15.2 N
therefore, the work done by the weight is
W_W=-15.2 N \cdot (0.203m-(-0.127m))=-5.02 J

Can someone please help me with these physics problems? I just don’t even know where to start.
KIM [24]

#1

for the block of mass 5 kg normal force is given as

F_n = mg

F_n = 5*9.8 = 49 N

friction force is given as

F_f = \mu F_n

F_f = 0.1*49 = 4.9 N

Net force is given as

F_{net} = ma

F_{net} = 5*2 = 10 N

now we know that

F_{net} = F_{app} - F_f

10 = F_{app} - 4.9

F_{app} = 14.9 N

#2

Normal force is given as

F_n = mg

F_n = 6*9.8

F_n = 58.8 N

now we know that

F_{net} = F_{app} - F_f

F_{net} = 0

as object moves with constant velocity

F_{app} = F_f = 15 N

now for coefficient of friction we can use

F_f = \mu F_n

15 = \mu * 58.8

\mu = 0.255

#3

net force upwards is given as

F = 1.2 * 10^{-4} N

mass is given as

m = 7 * 10^{-5} kg

now as per newton's law we can say

F = ma

1.2 * 10^{-4} = 7 * 10^{-5} * a

a = 1.71 m/s^2

#4

As we know that when block is sliding on rough surface

part a)

net force = applied force - frictional force

F_{net} = F_{app} - F_f

ma = F_{app} - F_f

5*6 = 40 - F_{f}

F_f = 40 - 30 = 10 N

part b)

for coefficient of friction we can use

F_f = \mu F_n

10 = \mu * F_n

here normal force is given as

F_n = mg = 5*9.8 = 49 N

now we have

\mu = \frac{10}{49} = 0.204

#5

if an object is initially at rest and moves 20 m in 5 s

so we can use kinematics to find out the acceleration

d = v_i*t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

20 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}a(5^2)

a = 1.6 m/s^2

now net force is given as

F_{net} = ma

F_{net} = 10*1.6 = 16 N

#6

an object travelling with speed 25 m/s comes to stop in 1.5 s

so here acceleration of object is given as

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a = \frac{0 - 25}{1.5} = -16.67 m/s^2

now the force is gievn as

F = ma

F = 5*16.67 = 83.3 N
