The maximum mass the can be hung vertically from a string without breaking the string is 10kg. A length of this string that is 2

m long is used to rotate a 0.5kg object in a circle on a frictionless table with the string horizontal. The maximum speed that the mass can attain under these conditions without the string breaking is most nearly:

Answer:

Explanation:

Think about circular motion when answering this question. First determine the maximum force that can be applied on the string. F = mg so F = (10)(10) = 100 N. Then determine the centripetal acceleration of the .5 kg mass, a = F/m so a = 100/.5 = 200 m/s².  On the equation sheet, use equation a(centripetal acceleration) = v²/r so 200 = v²/2 therefore v = 20 m/s. Hope this helps!

An ice block measuring 5cm by 5cm by 5cm has a desity of 5g/cm3. What is the mass of the ice block?
Svetradugi [14.3K]


Density = (mass) / (volume)

Volume of your block = (5cm x 5cm x 5cm) = 125 cm³

5 gm/cm³ = (mass) / (125 cm³)

Multiply each side by (125 cm³):  Mass = 625 gm

Note: 
I don't know what kind of frozen substance you're working with,
but maybe you ought to be careful handling it ... I know that's
not water ice you have there.  The density of water ice is not
5 gm/cm³.  In fact, it's a little less than 1 gm/cm³.  That's why
the ice floats in your soda.

inessss [21]

Answer:

4.5sec

Explanation:

From the question above, the following are the parameters that are given

u= 30m/s

v= 50m/s

s= 180m

First of all we have to find the acceleration by using the third equation of motion

V^2= U^2 + 2as

50^2= 30^2 + 2(a)(180)

2500= 900 + 360a

Collect the like terms

2500-900= 360a

1600=360a

Divide both sides by the coefficient of a which is 360

1600/360=360a/360

a= 4.44m/s

The next step is to find the time. To do this we will have to use the first equation of motion

v= u + at

50= 30 + 4.44t

Collect the like terms

50-30= 4.44t

20= 4.44t

Divide both sides by the coefficient of t which is 4.44

20/4.44= 4.44t/4.44

t= 4.5sec

Hence 4.5secs elapses while the auto moves at a distance of 180m
