The chain of length L and mass per unit length rho is released from rest on the smooth horizontal surface with a negligibly smal

l overhang x to initiate motion. Determine: (a) the acceleration of the chain as a function of x, (b) the tension T in the chain at the smooth corner as a function of x, (c) the velocity v of the last link A as it reaches the corner

Answer:

Part a)

a = \frac{x}{L} g

Part b)

T = \rho x g(1 - \frac{x}{L})

Part c)

v = \sqrt{gL}

Explanation:

Part a)

Net pulling force on the chain is due to weight of the part of the chain which is over hanging

So we know that mass of overhanging part of chain is given as

m = \rho x

now net pulling force on the chain is given as

F = \rho x g

now acceleration is given as

F = Ma

\rho x g = \rho L a

a = \frac{x}{L} g

Part b)

Tension force in the part of the chain is given as

mg - T = ma

\rho x g - T = \rho x a

\rho x(g - a) = T

\rho x (g - \frac{x}{L} g) = T

T = \rho x g(1 - \frac{x}{L})

Part c)

velocity of the last link of the chain is given as

a = \frac{x}{L} g

v\frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{x}{L} g

now integrate both sides

\int v dv = \frac{g}{L} \int x dx

\frac{v^2}{2} = \frac{gL}{2}

v = \sqrt{gL}

cycling at 13.0 m/s on your new aero carbon fiber bike, how much times would it take a pro cyclist to ride in 120 km? Give your
sp2606 [1]

We have that the time in seconds, minutes, and hours is

t=1.083*10^{-4}s

T_{min}=1.805*10^{-6}min

T_{hours}=3.0083*10^{-8}hours

From the Question we are told that

Velocity v=13.0m/s

Distance d=120 km

Generally the equation for the Time  is mathematically given as

t=\frac{13}{120*10^3}\\\\t=1.083*10^{-4}s

Therefore

T_{min}=1.083*10^{-4}s/60

T_{min}=1.805*10^{-6}min

And

T_{hours}=T_{min}/60

T_{hours}=3.0083*10^{-8}hours

A basketball is rolling with a velocity of 0.5 meters/second relative to the ground and due north. A tennis ball is rolling with
Lisa [10]
Since the basketball and the tennis ball both travel to the same direction relative to the ground, the velocity of the basketball relative to the tennis ball is therefore the difference of their velocities.
                                     0.5 m/s - 0.25 m/s = 0.25 m/s
Thus, the basketball travel for 0.25 m/s relative to the tennis ball.

Two speakers in a stereo emit identical pure tones. As you move around in front of the speakers, you hear the sound alternating
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Interference

Explanation:

When two traveling waves traveling waves along the same path are superimposed(combine). The superimposition of these two waves results in the production of a resultant wave which is defined by the net effect of the two waves. Wave interference occurs most types of waves including radio wave, light, acoustic waves and other wave types. Alternating sound between loud and Zero is heard as the two speakers emit identical pure tones because the resultant amplitude after the interference of the two sound waves is the vector sum of each of their amplitudes. A loud sound is heard, when the crest of both waves meets each other and a zero is heard if the crest of one meets the trough of the other as they cancel out.
