A wooden beam with a mass of 10.8 kg is supported by vertical supports

Physics
1 answer:
blondinia [14]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Force from the support closest = 79.8 N

Force from the support furthest = 61.9 N

Explanation:

Let's say the length of the beam is L.  Let's say A is the near end of the beam and B is the far end of the beam.

Draw a free body diagram.  There are four forces on the beam:

Reaction force Ra at the near end (0),

Reaction force Rb at the far end (L),

Weight force of the beam Mg at the center (L/2),

Weight force of the book mg at L/4 from A.

Sum of torques at A:

∑τ = Iα

Rb (L) − Mg (L/2) − mg (L/4) = 0

Rb (L) = Mg (L/2) + mg (L/4)

Rb = ½ Mg + ¼ mg

Rb = (½ M + ¼ m) g

Rb = (½ (10.8 kg) + ¼ (3.66 kg)) (9.8 m/s²)

Rb = 61.9 N

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

Ra + Rb − Mg − mg = 0

Ra = Mg + mg − Rb

Ra = (M + m) g − Rb

Ra = (10.8 kg + 3.66 kg) (9.8 m/s²) − 61.9 N

Ra = 79.8 N

seropon [69]

Answer: Option B. R = (1/2)gt^2

Explanation:

S = R (horizontal distance)

V^2 = 2gS

V^2 = 2gR

R = V^2 / 2g

But V = gt

R = (gt)^2 / 2g

R = (g^2 x t^2) / 2g

R = gt^2 / 2

But t^2 = 2h/g

R = ( g x 2h/g) / 2

R = h

But h = (1/2)gt^2

R = h = (1/2)gt^2

A satellite circles the Earth in an orbit whose radius is twice the Earth’s radius. The Earth’s mass is 5.98 x 1024 kg, and its
gavmur [86]

Hello!

Recall the period of an orbit is how long it takes the satellite to make a complete orbit around the earth. Essentially, this is the same as 'time' in the distance = speed * time equation. For an orbit, we can define these quantities:

d = 2\pi r ← The circumference of the orbit

speed = orbital speed, we will solve for this later

time = period

Therefore:

T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}

Where 'r' is the orbital radius of the satellite.

First, let's solve for 'v' assuming a uniform orbit using the equation:
v = \sqrt{\frac{Gm}{r}}

G = Gravitational Constant (6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²)

m = mass of the earth (5.98 × 10²⁴ kg)

r = radius of orbit (1.276 × 10⁷ m)

Plug in the givens:
v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(5.98*10^{24})}{(1.276*10^7)}} = 5590.983 m/s

Now, we can solve for the period:

T = \frac{2\pi (1.276*10^7)}{5590.983} =\boxed{ 14339.776 s}

A dairy farmer notices that a circular water trough near the barn has become rusty and now has a hole near the base. The hole is
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

v=1.93m/s

Explanation:

From the concept of fluids mechanics we know that if a tank has a hole at the bottom, the equation that we need to use is:

v=\sqrt{2gh}

Since we know gravity and its hight

v=\sqrt{2*(9.81m/s^{2})(0.19m) }=1.93m/s

What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point midway between them if the top one carries a current of 19.5 A and the bo
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

The magnetic field will be \large{\dfrac{1.4 \times 10^{-4}}{d}} T, '2d' being the distance the wires.

Explanation:

From Biot-Savart's law, the magnetic field (\large{\overrightarrow{B}}) at a distance 'r' due to a current carrying conductor carrying current 'I' is given by

\large{\overrightarrow{B} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I}{4 \pi}} \int \dfrac{\overrightarrow{dl} \times \hat{r}}{r^{2}}}

where '\overrightarrow{dl}' is an elemental length along the direction of the current flow through the conductor.

Using this law, the magnetic field due to straight current carrying conductor having current 'I', at a distance 'd' is given by

\large{\overrightarrow{B}} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I}{2 \pi d}

According to the figure if 'I_{t}' be the current carried by the top wire, 'I_{b}' be the current carried by the bottom wire and '2d' be the distance between them, then the direction of the magnetic field at 'P', which is midway between them, will be perpendicular towards the plane of the screen, shown by the \bigotimes symbol and that due to the bottom wire at 'P' will be perpendicular away from the plane of the screen, shown by \bigodot symbol.

Given \large{I_{t} = 19.5 A} and \large{I_{B} = 12.5 A}

Therefore, the magnetic field (\large{B_{t}}) at 'P' due to the top wire

B_{t} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I_{t}}{2 \pi d}

and the magnetic field (\large{B_{b}}) at 'P' due to the bottom wire

B_{b} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I_{b}}{2 \pi d}

Therefore taking the value of \mu_{0} = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} the net magnetic field (\large{B_{M}}) at the midway between the wires will be

\large{B_{M} = \dfrac{4 \pi \times 10^{-7}}{2 \pi d} (I_{t} - I_{b}) = \dfrac{2 \times 10^{-7}}{d} = \dfrac{41.4 \times 10 ^{-4}}{d}} T
