A professor has to haul a cart up a ramp. The ramp has an angle of about 10 degrees and is about 5 meters long. His initial spee

d at the bottom of the ramp is 4.5 m/s, and the cart has a mass of about 80 kg. How hard does he have to push on the cart so that at the top of the ramp, its speed has not dropped below 3.6 m/s? Neglecting friction, what is the magnitude of the minimum force he has to exert on the cart?

Answer:

77.95 N

Explanation:

work done by force WF = F×L

work done by gravity Wg = -m×g×L×sinθ

initial kinetic energy Ki = (1/2)×m×vi^2

final kinetic energy Kf = (1/2)×m×vf^2

from work energy relation

net work = change in KE

W_tot = K_f - K_i

WF + Wg = K_f - K_i

F×L - mg×L×sinθ = (1/2)×m×(v_f^2 - v_i^2)

F×5 - 80×9.81×5×sin10 = (1/2)×80×(3.6^2-4.5^2)

force F = 77.95 N

Rashid [163]

Answer:

30.30 m/s

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 1501 kg

angle of banking, θ = 25°

radius, r = 201 m

Let the speed is v.

The relation for the speed is given by

tan\theta =\frac{v^{2}}{rg}

tan25 =\frac{v^{2}}{201\times9.8}

v = 30.30 m/s

What is the purpose of a kink in a thermometer?
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

A 'kink' in the glass tube which breaks the mercury as it contracts, storing the highest temperature reading. The glass tube is shaped like a lens to magnify the thin mercury thread. Shaking the thermometer resets the mercury back into the bulb.
