- A person is on an elevator that moves

Physics
1 answer:
Mademuasel [1]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The net force acting on the person is, F = 560 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The downward acceleration of the elevator, a = 1.8 m/s²

The weight of the person is, W = mg

                                                          = 686 N

Therefore the mass of the person,

                                           m = W /g

                                               = 686 / 9.8

                                               = 70 kg

The net force acting on the person,

                                           F = mg - ma

                                               = 686 - 70 x 1.8

                                               = 560 N

Hence, the net force acting on the person is, F = 560 N

leva [86]

1) 1.86\cdot 10^6 rad/s^2

2) 2418 rad/s

3) 27000 m/s^2

4) 36.3 m/s

Explanation:

1)

The angular acceleration of an object in rotation is the rate of change of angular velocity.

It can be calculated using the following suvat equation for angular motion:

\theta=\omega_i t +\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

where:

\theta is the angular displacement

\omega_i is the initial angular velocity

t is the time

\alpha is the angular acceleration

In this problem we have:

\theta=90^{\circ} = \frac{\pi}{2}rad is the angular displacement

t = 1.3 ms = 0.0013 s is the time elapsed

\omega_i = 0 is the initial angular velocity

Solving for \alpha, we find:

\alpha = \frac{2(\theta-\omega_i t)}{t^2}=\frac{2(\pi/2)-0}{0.0013}=1.86\cdot 10^6 rad/s^2

2)

For an object in accelerated rotational motion, the final angular speed can be found by using another suvat equation:

\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t

where

\omega_i is the initial angular velocity

t is the time

\alpha is the angular acceleration

In this problem we have:

t = 1.3 ms = 0.0013 s is the time elapsed

\omega_i = 0 is the initial angular velocity

\alpha = 1.86\cdot 10^6 rad/s is the angular acceleration

Therefore, the final angular speed is:

\omega_f = 0 + (1.86\cdot 10^6)(0.0013)=2418 rad/s

3)

The tangential acceleration is related to the angular acceleration by the following formula:

a_t = \alpha r

where

a_t is the tangential acceleration

\alpha is the angular acceleration

r is the distance of the point from the centre of rotation

Here we want to find the tangential acceleration of the tip of the claw, so:

\alpha = 1.86\cdot 10^6 rad/s is the angular acceleration

r = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m is the distance of the tip of the claw from the axis of rotation

Substituting,

a_t=(1.86\cdot 10^6)(0.015)=27900 m/s^2

4)

Since the tip of the claw is moving by uniformly accelerated motion, we can find its final speed using the suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

u is the initial linear speed

a is the tangential acceleration

t is the time elapsed

Here we have:

a=27900 m/s^2 (tangential acceleration)

u = 0 m/s (it starts from rest)

t = 1.3 ms = 0.0013 s is the time elapsed

Substituting,

v=0+(27900)(0.0013)=36.3 m/s

A boy is playing with a ball of mass 72g attached to a string. He is moving it at constant speed in a horizontal circle of radiu
irina [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

radius of circle r = 0.9 m.

(a ) In a motion on circular path , work done is zero because force ( centripetal force ) acts perpendicular to displacement .

( b )

Tension in string T = m ω²r

Putting the values

60 = .072 x ω² x 0.9

ω² = 926

ω = 30.4 rad /s

angle made in 20 revolutions θ = 20 x 2π = 126.6 rad

time taken = θ / ω

= 126.6 / 30.4

= 4.16 s .

Hey guys can you help me solve this problem "how long will it take a car travelling 30m/s to come to stop ifs its acceleration i
salantis [7]

Answer:

10 seconds.

Explanation:

We can use a kinematic equation where we know the final velocity, initial velocity, acceleration, and need to determine the time <em>t: </em>

<em />\displaystyle v_f = v_i + at<em />

<em />

The initial velocit is 30 m/s, the final velocity is 0 m/s (as we stopped), and the acceleration is -3 m/s².

Substitute and solve for <em>t: </em>

<em />\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (0\text{ m/s}) & = (30 \text{ m/s}) + (-3 \text{ m/s$^2$}) t \\ \\  t & = \frac{-30\text{ m/s}}{-3 \text{ m/s$^2$}} \\ \\ & = 10 \text{ s} \end{aligned}<em />

<em />

Hence, it will take the car 10 seconds to come to a stop.
