Answer:

36.5°

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved immediately before and after the collision.

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

(0.020 kg) (100 m/s) + (1 kg) (0 m/s) = (0.020 kg) v + (1 kg) v

v = 1.96 m/s

After the collision, energy is conserved.

KE = PE

½ m v² = mgh

½ v² = gh

h = v² / (2g)

h = (1.96 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)

h = 0.196 m

We need the angle that the string forms with the vertical.  Knowing the length of the string and the height that the block rises, we can do some geometry (see attached diagram).

L − L cos θ = h

L (1 − cos θ) = h

1 − cos θ = h / L

cos θ = 1 − h / L

cos θ = 1 − (0.196 m / 1 m)

θ = 36.5°

Round as needed.

You are investigating an elevator accident which happened in a tall building. An elevator in this building is attached to a stro
Advocard [28]

Answer:

a) F = 2250 Ib

b) F = 550 Ib

c) new max force ( F newmax ) = 2850 Ib

Explanation:

A) The force the wall of the elevator shaft exert on the motor if the elevator starts from rest and goes up

max capacity  of elevator = 24000 Ibs

counterweight = 1000 Ibs

To calculate the force (F) :

we first calculate the Tension using this relationship

Counterweight (1000) - T =  ( 1000 / g ) ( g/4 )

Hence T = 750 Ib

next determine F

750 + F - 2400 = 2400 / 4

hence F = 2250 Ib

B ) calculate Tension first

T - 1000 = ( 1000/g ) ( g/4)

T = 1250 Ib

F = 2400 -1250 - 2400/ 4

F = 550 Ib

C ) determine design limit

Max = 2400 * 1.2 = 2880 Ib

750 + new force - 2880 = 2880 / 4

new max force ( F newmax ) = 2850 Ib
