A tug boat pulls a ship with a constant net horizontal force of 5.00•10*3 N and causes the ship to move through a harbor. How mu
1 answer:
The work done on the ship is
Explanation:
The work done by a force on an object is given by:
where
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the displacement
is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement
In this problem, we have:
(force acting on the ship)
d = 3.00 km = 3000 m (displacement of the ship)
(because the force is horizontal, and the displacement is horizontal as well)
Therefore, the work done on the ship is

First of all we need to convert everything into SI units.
Let's start with the initial angular speed,
. Keeping in mind that
we have
And we should also convert the angle covered by the centrifuge:
This is the angle covered by the centrifuge before it stops, so its final angular speed is

To solve the problem we can use the equivalent of
of an uniformly accelerated motion but for a rotational motion. It will be
And by substituting the numbers, we can find the value of
