A 4.40-m-long, 500 kg steel uniform beam extends horizontally from the point where it has been bolted to the framework of a new

building under construction. A 70 kg construction worker stands at the far end of the beam.
What is the magnitude of the torque about the bolt due to the worker and the weight of the beam?

Answer:

Torque=13798.4 N.m

Explanation:

Given data

Mass of beam m₁=500 kg

Mass of the person m₂=70 kg

length of steel r₁=4.40m

center of gravity of the beam is at r₂=r₁/2 =4.40/2 = 2.20m

To find

Torque

Solution

Torque due to beam own weight

T_{1}=m_{1}gr_{1}\\ T_{1}=500*2.2*9.8\\T_{1}=10780N.m

Torque due to person

T_{2}=m_{2}r_{2}g\\T_{2}=70*(4.40)*(9.8)\\T_{2}=3018.4 N.m

Now for total torque

T_{total}=T_{1}+T_{2}\\T_{total}=10780+3018.4\\T_{total}=13798.4N.m

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

This question can be answered by using conversation of energy.

K_1 + U_1 = K_2 + U_2

\frac{1}{2}mv_{0}^2 + mgh_1 = 0 + mgh_2

\frac{1}{2}(3)v_0^2 + (3)(9.8)(30) = (3)(9.8)(45)\\\frac{1}{2}(3)v_0^2 = 441\\v_0^2 = 294\\v_0 = 17.14 m/s

Explanation:

Note that we take K_2 = 0 because we are looking for the minimum initial speed for the penguin to reach the top of the second hill. Any other speed more than this will already be enough for him.

Describe Kinetic Energy.​
mina [271]
In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the body when decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest.

9. A Veggie meatball with v = 5.0 m/s rolls off a 1.0 m high table. How long does it take to hit the floor if no one sneezes? Wh
Paha777 [63]

By Considering the vertical distance and both vertical and horizontal final velocity, the time t = 0.45 s and Velocity V = 6.7 m/s

Given that a Veggie meatball with v = 5.0 m/s rolls off a 1.0 m high table.

Height h = 1.0 m

As the ball rolls off the table, it will be fallen under gravity. Where

g = 9.8 m/s^{2}

Initial vertical velocity u_{y} = 0

Initial horizontal velocity u_{x} = 5 m/s

Considering the vertical distance, the formula to use to calculate the time will be;

h = ut + 1/2gt^{2}

1 = 0 + 1/2 x 9.8t^{2}

1 = 4.9t^{2}

t^{2} = 1/4.9

t = \sqrt{0.204}

t = 0.45 seconds

It takes 0.45 seconds to hit the floor if no one sneezes.

To calculate its velocity when it hits the floor, we will need to calculate for both vertical and horizontal final velocity and find the resultant velocity of the two.

Vertical component

V_{y} = U_{y} + gt

V_{y} = 0 + 9.8(0.45)

V_{y} = 4.41 m/s

Horizontal component

V_{x} = u_{x} + at

but a = 0

V_{x} = 5 m/s

Final velocity V = \sqrt{5^{2} + 4.41^{2}  }

V = 6.67 m/s

Therefore, it will hit the floor at a velocity of 6.7 m/s
