Answer:

B) 3.50 m/s

Explanation:

The linear velocity in a circular motion is defined as:

v=\omega r(1)

The angular frequency (\omega) is defined as 2π times the frequency and r is the radius, that is, the distance from the center of the circular motion.

\omega=2\pi f(2)

Replacing (2) in (1):

v=2\pi fr

We have to convert the frequency to Hz:

7.18rpm*\frac{1Hz}{60rpm}=0.12Hz

Finally, we calculate how fast is the child moving:

v=2\pi(0.12Hz)(4.65m)\\v=3.5\frac{m}{s}

soldi70 [24.7K]
<h2>Resultant is 235.54 pounds at an angle 44.16° to X axis.</h2>

Explanation:

Forces are 100 pound and 150 pound and angles with x axis are 20°and 60°.

That is force 1 is 100 pound with x axis at 20°

           F₁ = 100 cos 20 i  +  100 sin 20 j

           F₁ = 93.97 i  +  34.20 j          

That is force 2 is 150 pound with x axis at 60°

           F₂ = 150 cos 60 i  +  150 sin 60 j

           F₂ = 75 i  +  129.90 j  

F₁ +  F₂ =  93.97 i  +  34.20 j + 75 i  +  129.90 j

F₁ +  F₂ =  168.97 i  +  164.10 j

\texttt{Magnitude = }\sqrt{168.97^2+164.10^2}\\\\\texttt{Magnitude = }235.54pounds\\\\\texttt{Angle = }tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{164.10}{168.97}\right )\\\\\texttt{Angle = }44.16^0

Resultant is 235.54 pounds at an angle 44.16° to X axis.

A mass of 0.5 kg hangs motionless from a vertical spring whose length is 1.10 m and whose unstretched length is 0.50 m. Next the
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The maximum length during the motion is L_{max} = 1.45m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

           The mass  is  m =0.5 kg

            The vertical spring  length is  L = 1.10m

            The unstretched  length is  L_{un} = 1.30m

          The initial speed is v_i = 1.3m/s

          The new length of the spring L_{new} =  1.30 m

The spring constant k is mathematically represented as

                           k = -\frac{F}{y}

Where F is the force applied  = m * g = 0.5 * 9.8=4.9N

           y is the difference in weight which is   =1.10-0.50=0.6m

The negative sign is because the displacement of the spring (i.e its extension occurs against the force F)

    Now  substituting values accordingly

                    k =  \frac{4.9}{0.6}

                       = 8.17 N/m

The  elastic potential energy is given as E_{PE} = \frac{1}{2} k D^2

  where D is this the is the displacement  

Since Energy is conserved the total elastic potential energy would be

             E_T = initial  \ elastic\ potential \ energy + kinetic \ energy

            E_T = \frac{1}{2} k D_{max}^2 =   \frac{1}{2} k D^2 + \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Substituting value accordingly

                \frac{1}{2} *8.17 *D_{max}^2 =\frac{1}{2} * 8.17*(1.30 - 0.50)^2 + \frac{1}{2} * 0.5 *1.30^2

                4.085 * D_{max}^2 = 3.69

                 D^2_{max} = 0.9033

                D_{max} = 0.950m

So to obtain total length we would add the unstretched length

 So we have

                  L_{max} = 0.950 + 0.5 = 1.45m

A large airplane typically has three sets of wheels: one at the front and two farther back, one on each side under the wings. Co
Tems11 [23]

(a) The force the ground exerts on each set of rear wheels when the plane is at rest on the runway is 0.743 MN.

(b) The force the ground exerts on the front set of wheels is 0.239 MN.

<h3>Center mass of the airplane</h3>

The concept of center mass of an object can be used to dtermine the mass distribution of the airplane along the line through the center.

<h3>Some assumptions</h3>
  • The wheels under the wind do not pass through the center line.
  • The position of the front wheel is constant and it is zero mark (origin).
  • The rear wheels are at 21.7 m mark

Position of the center mass of the plane is calculated as follows;

Let the position of the center mass, Xcm = y

the center mass is 3 m in front of rear wheels, that is

21.7 - y = 3

y = 21.7 - 3

y = 18.7 m

Xcm = 18.7 m

<h3>Mass of the plane at the position of the rear wheels</h3>

Let the mass of the plane at front wheels = M1

Let the mass of the plane at rear wheels = M2

X_{cm} = \frac{M_1x_1 + M_2x_2}{M_1 + M_2}

18.7 = \frac{M_1(0) + M_2(21.7)}{177000} \\\\3,309,900 = 21.7M_2\\\\M_2 = \frac{3,309,900}{21.7} \\\\M_2 = 152,529.95 \ kg

<h3>Force exerted by the ground on each rear wheel</h3>

There are two rear wheels, and the force exerted on each wheel due to mass of the airplane at this position is calculated as follows;

W = mg\\\\W_1 = W_2 = \frac{1}{2} (mg) = \frac{1}{2} (152,529.95 \times 9.8) = 743,396.76 \ N= 0.743 \ MN

<h3>Mass of the plane at the position of the front wheel</h3>

M1 + M2 = 177,000

M1 = 177,000 - M2

M1 = 177,000 - 152,529.95

M1 = 24,470.05 kg

<h3>Force exerted by the ground on the front wheel</h3>

W = mg

W = 24,470.05 x 9.8

W = 239,806.5 N = 0.239 MN
