A rod of length 35.50 cm has linear density (mass per length) given by λ = 50.0 + 23.0x where x is the distance from one end, an
1 answer:
Answer:
(a)20.65g
(b)0.19m
Explanation:
(a) The total mass would be it's mass per length multiplied by the total lenght
0.355(50 + 23*0.355) = 20.65 g
(b) The center of mass would be at point c where the mass on the left and on the right of c is the same
Hence the mass on the left side would be half of its total mass which is 20.65/2 = 10.32 g

As stated in the statement, we will apply energy conservation to solve this problem.
From this concept we know that the kinetic energy gained is equivalent to the potential energy lost and vice versa. Mathematically said equilibrium can be expressed as
Where,
m = mass
= initial and final velocity
g = Gravity
h = height
As the mass is tHe same and the final height is zero we have that the expression is now:
