A man seeking to set a world record wants to tow a 101,000-kg airplane along a runway by pulling horizontally on a cable attache

d to the airplane. The mass of the man is 84 kg, and the coefficient of static friction between his shoes and the runway is 0.76. What is the greatest acceleration the man can give the airplane? Assume that the airplane is on wheels that turn without any frictional resistance.

Answer:

6.19 x 10^{-3} m/s^{2}

Explanation:

For this exercise we need to sum the forces on the y-axis and x-axis as follows:

∑F_{y} = N - mg = m.a_{y} = 0

From the exercise, we deduce there is no motion in y-axis, so:

N = mg

Then for x-axis we have:

∑F_{x} = H - f^{s} = m.a_{x} = 0

Now, from the exercise we deduce that we are looking for the greatest static friction which means to have the maximun static friction to start moving, so at this point the acceleration is zero, so we can find horizontal force (H), which then will act in the airplane to move it. Therefore we have:

H = f^{s} = f^{sma_{x} } = u_{s}N = u_{s}mg

H = (0.76)(84Kg)(9.8m/s^{2})

H = 625.63 N

Now we apply this force to the weight of the plane to find the greatest acceleration the mann can give to start moving the plane.

a = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{H}{m}

a = \frac{6325.63N}{101000Kg}

a = 6.19 x 10^{-3} m/s^{2}

A spring-mass system has a spring constant of 3 Nm. A mass of 2 kg is attached to the spring, and the motion takes place in a vi
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The answer to the question

The steady state response is u₂(t) = -\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{2}cos(3t + π/4)

of the form R·cos(ωt−δ) with R = -\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{2}, ω = 3 and δ = -π/4

Explanation:

To solve the question we note that the equation of motion is given by

m·u'' + γ·u' + k·u = F(t) where

m = mass = 2.00 kg

γ = Damping coefficient = 1

k = Spring constant = 3 N·m

F(t) = externally applied force = 27·cos(3·t)−18·sin(3·t)

Therefore we have 2·u'' + u' + 3·u = 27·cos(3·t)−18·sin(3·t)

The homogeneous equation 2·u'' + u' + 3·u is first solved as follows

2·u'' + u' + 3·u = 0 where putting the characteristic equation as

2·X² + X + 3 = 0 we have the solution given by \frac{-1+/-\sqrt{23} }{4} \sqrt{-1} =\frac{-1+/-\sqrt{23} }{4} i

This gives the general solution of the homogeneous equation as

u₁(t) = e^{(-1/4t)} (C_1cos(\frac{\sqrt{23} }{4}t) + C_2sin(\frac{\sqrt{23} }{4}t)

For a particular equation of the form 2·u''+u'+3·u = 27·cos(3·t)−18·sin(3·t) which is in the form u₂(t) = A·cos(3·t) + B·sin(3·t)

Then u₂'(t) = -3·A·sin(3·t) + 3·B·cos(3·t) also u₂''(t) = -9·A·cos(3·t) - 9·B·sin(3·t) from which  2·u₂''(t)+u₂'(t)+3·u₂(t) = (3·B-15·A)·cos(3·t) + (-3·A-15·B)·sin(3·t). Comparing with the equation 27·cos(3·t)−18·sin(3·t)  we have

3·B-15·A = 27

3·A +15·B = 18

Solving the above linear system of equations we have

A = -1.5, B = 1.5 and  u₂(t) = A·cos(3·t) + B·sin(3·t) becomes 1.5·sin(3·t) - 1.5·cos(3·t)

u₂(t) = 1.5·(sin(3·t) - cos(3·t) = -\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{2}·cos(3·t + π/4)

The general solution is then  u(t) = u₁(t) + u₂(t)

however since u₁(t) = e^{(-1/4t)} (C_1cos(\frac{\sqrt{23} }{4}t) + C_2sin(\frac{\sqrt{23} }{4}t) ⇒ 0 as t → ∞ the steady state response = u₂(t) = -\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{2}·cos(3·t + π/4) which is of the form R·cos(ωt−δ) where

R = -\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{2}

ω = 3 and

δ = -π/4

a tractor pulls a wagon from rest with a constant force of 700 N eventually giving the wagon a speed of 20 km/h. how much work i
Semenov [28]


Work = Force × distance

We need to calculate distance travelled.

20km/hr = 20,000m / 60min  → 333.3m/ min

333.3 × 3.5 min = 1,166.6 meters travelled

Force = 700 N  and distance = 1,166.6 m

Work done is  700 N × 1,666.6 =  816,620 Nm

Power output = work /time

Power output is 816, 620 Nm / (3.5 × 60sec) →816, 620 / 210 = 3,888.7

Power output is 3,888.7 Watts.

Power output can also be expressed in joules per second so it is also correct to  say work done is 3,888.7 J/s
