ozzi

Answer:

\theta =\left (\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}\times mg}  \right )^{\frac{1}{3}}

Explanation:

Let the length of the string is L.

Let T be the tension in the string.

Resolve the components of T.

As the charge q is in equilibrium.

T Sinθ = Fe       ..... (1)

T Cosθ = mg     .......(2)

Divide equation (1) by equation (2), we get

tan θ = Fe / mg

tan\theta =\frac{\frac{kq^{2}}{AB^{2}}}{mg}

tan\theta =\frac{\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}Sin^{\theta }}}}{mg}

tan\theta =\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}Sin^{2}\theta \times mg}

tan\theta\times Sin^{2}\theta =\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}\times mg}

As θ is very small, so tanθ and Sinθ is equal to θ.

\theta ^{3} =\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}\times mg}

\theta =\left (\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}\times mg}  \right )^{\frac{1}{3}}

A horizontal 810-N merry-go-round of radius 1.60 m is started from rest by a constant horizontal force of 55 N applied tangentia
Sloan [31]

Answer:

576 joules

Explanation:

From the question we are given the following:

weight = 810 N

radius (r) = 1.6 m

horizontal force (F) = 55 N

time (t) = 4 s

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

K.E = 0.5 x MI x ω^{2}

where MI is the moment of inertia and ω is the angular velocity

MI = 0.5 x m x r^2

mass = weight ÷ g = 810 ÷ 9.8 = 82.65 kg

MI = 0.5 x 82.65 x 1.6^{2}

MI = 105.8 kg.m^{2}

angular velocity (ω) = a x t

angular acceleration (a) = torque ÷ MI

where torque = F x r = 55 x 1.6 = 88 N.m

a= 88 ÷ 105.8 = 0.83 rad /s^{2}

therefore

angular velocity (ω) = a x t = 0.83 x 4 = 3.33 rad/s

K.E = 0.5 x MI x ω^{2}

K.E = 0.5 x 105.8 x 3.33^{2} = 576 joules

A coin is placed on a large disk which rotates uniformly at a rate of 1 rot/s. The coefficient of friction between the coin and
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

r = 0.02 m

Explanation:

from the question we have :

speed = 1 rps = 1x 60 = 60 rpm

coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.1

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

maximum distance without falling off (r) = ?

to get how far from the center of the disk the coin can be placed without having to slip off we equate the formula for the centrifugal force with the frictional force on the turntable force

mv^2 / r =  m x g x μ

v^2 / r =  g x μ  .......equation 1

where

velocity (v) = angular speed (rads/seconds) x radius

angular speed (rads/seconds) = (\frac{2π}{60} ) x rpm

angular speed (rads/seconds) = (\frac{2 x π}{60} ) x 60 = 6.28 rads/ seconds

now

velocity = 6.28 x r = 6.28 r

now substituting the value of velocity into equation 1

v^2 / r =  g x μ

(6.28r)^2 / r = 9.8 x 0.1

39.5 x r = 0.98

r = 0.02 m
