Two blocks of masses M 1 and M 2 are connected by a massless string that passes over a massless pulley as shown in the figure. M

stealth61 [152]

The mass M1 is 7.8 kg

Explanation:

Block M1 is hanging on the string while block M2 is on the frictionless ramp.

We have to write the equations of motion for the two blocks.

- For M1, the only two forces acting on it are the force of gravity $M_1 g$ (downward) and the tension in the string T (upward). So we can write

$M_1 g - T = M_1 a$

where

$M_1$ is the mass of the block

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

$a$ is the acceleration of the system

- For M2, the only two forces acting on it are the tension in the string T (acting up along the ramp) and the component of the gravity acting down along the ramp, $M_2 g sin \theta$ . So the equation of motion is

$T-M_2 g sin \theta = M_2 a$

where

$M_2 = 13.5 kg$ is the mass of the 2nd block

$\theta=35.5^{\circ}$ is the angle of the ramp

In order for the two blocks to be in equilibrium, the acceleration must be zero:

$a=0$

So the two equations become:

$M_1 g - T=0\\T-M_2 g sin \theta = 0$

Isolating T from the 1st equation,

$T=M_1 g$

And substituting into the 2nd equation, we can find the value of the mass $M_1$ :

$M_1 g - M_2 g sin \theta = 0\\M_1 = M_2 sin \theta = (13.5)(sin 35.5^{\circ})=7.8 kg$

A park ranger driving on a back country road suddenly sees a deer in his headlights 20

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

17.1

Explanation:

The distance ahead, of the deer when it is sighted by the park ranger, d = 20 m

The initial speed with which the ranger was driving, u = 11.4 m/s

The acceleration rate with which the ranger slows down, a = (-)3.80 m/s² (For a vehicle slowing down, the acceleration is negative)

The distance required for the ranger to come to rest, s = Required

The kinematic equation of motion that can be used to find the distance the ranger's vehicle travels before coming to rest (the distance 's'), is given as follows;

v² = u² + 2·a·s

∴ s = (v² - u²)/(2·a)

Where;

v = The final velocity = 0 m/s (the vehicle comes to rest (stops))

Plugging in the values for 'v', 'u', and 'a', gives;

s = (0² - 11.4²)/(2 × -3.8) = 17.1

The distance the required for the ranger's vehicle to com to rest, s = 17.1 (meters).

A superhero swings a magic hammer over her head in a horizontal plane. The end of the hammer moves around a circular path of rad

Korolek [52]

Answer:

9.21954 m/s

54 m/s²

Angle is zero

Explanation:

r = Radius of arm = 1.5 m

$\omega$ = Angular velocity = 6 rad/s

The horizontal component of speed is given by

$v_h=\omega r\\\Rightarrow v_h=6\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow v_h=9\ m/s$

The vertical component of speed is given by

$v_v=2\ m/s$

The resultant of the two components will give us the velocity of hammer with respect to the ground

$v=\sqrt{v_h^2+v_v^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{9^2+2^2}\\\Rightarrow v=9.21954\ m/s$

The velocity of hammer relative to the ground is 9.21954 m/s

Acceleration in the vertical component is zero

Net acceleration is given by

$a_n=a_h=\omega^2r\\\Rightarrow a_n=6^2\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow a_n=54\ m/s^2$

Net acceleration is 54 m/s²

As the acceleration is towards the center the angle is zero.

Referring to the diagram above, predict what will happen when the switch is closed. Explain your answer.

alisha [4.7K]

Answer

The nail will become an electromagnet.

Explanation

When the switched is closed , a current will flow in the insulated wire. Then the current flows through the coil around the iron nail, it will induce am magnetic filed inside the nail. The nail becomes a magnet because it is made of magnetic material. As long as there is current flowing through the current, there nail will remain a magnet.

aniked [119]

Answer:

Object B has greater density

desity A=20/10=2 g cm^-3 . density B=50/10=5 g cm^-3

the object that has greater mass has the greater density because the volume of the those two objects are same
