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

c(50 + 23c) = 10.32

23c^2 + 50c - 10.32 = 0

c \approx 0.19m

A skydiver falls toward the ground at a constant velocity. Which statement best applies Newton’s laws of motion to explain the s
Tema [17]

Answer:

The answer is (a.) An upward force balances the downward force gravity on the skydiver

The skydiver is falling at a constant velocity because the upward force is balancing the downward force of gravity. According to Newton, the opposite force balance each other. This is stated in Newton's second law of motion.

A 19 g bullet is fired into the bob of a ballistic pendulum of mass 1.3 kg. When the bob is at its maximum height, the strings m
katovenus [111]

Answer:

217.43298 m/s

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of bullet = 19 g

m_2 = Mass of bob = 1.3 kg

L = Length of pendulum = 2.3 m

\theta = Angle of deflection = 60°

u = Velocity of bullet

Combined velocity of bullet and bob is given by

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2aL(1-cos\theta)+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times (1-cos60)+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=3.13209\ m/s

As the momentum is conserved

m_1u=(m_1+m_2)v\\\Rightarrow u=\frac{(m_1+m_2)v}{m_1}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{(0.019+1.3)\times 3.13209}{0.019}\\\Rightarrow v=217.43298\ m/s

The speed of the bullet is 217.43298 m/s

A 96.0 kg hoop rolls along a horizontal floor so that its center of mass has a speed of 0.240 m/s. How much work must be done on
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The work done by the hoop is equal to 5.529 Joules.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the hoop, m = 96 kg

The speed of the center of mass, v = 0.24 m/s

To find,

The work done by the hoop.

Solution,

The initial energy of the hoop is given by the sum of linear kinetic energy and the rotational kinetic energy. So,

K_i=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2

I is the moment of inertia, I=mr^2

Since, \omega=\dfrac{v}{r}

K_i=mv^2

K_i=96\times (0.24)^2=5.529\ J

Finally it stops, so the final energy of the hoop will be, K_f=0

The work done by the hoop is equal to the change in kinetic energy as :

W=K_f-K_i

W = -5.529 Joules

So, the work done by the hoop is equal to 5.529 Joules. Therefore, this is the required solution.
