A 5-kg block(m1) is released (from rest) from the top of a 3.0-m high, frictionless incline. When the 5-kg block reaches the bot

tom of the incline it collides with a 3-kg block in a perfectly elastic collision. After the collision, the two blocks slide horizontally on a rough surface(μk=0.31) until they come to rest. How far does the 3-kg block slide before coming to rest?

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of energy (Potential and kinetic), later we can consider the conservation of kinetic energy to finally apply the theory of kinematic equations of linear motion and find the velocity before reaching rest . From the conservation of energy we have to,

\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2 = mgh

v_1 = \sqrt{2gh}

v_1 = \sqrt{2(9.8)(3)}

v_1 = 7.66m/s

From conservation of kinetic energy we have that

KE_i = KE_f

There is not Kinetic Energy at the beginning, then

KE_f = 0

\frac{1}{2} m_2v_2^2 - \frac{1}{2} m_1v_1^2 = 0

\frac{1}{2} m_2v_2^2 = \frac{1}{2} m_1v_1^2

Rearranging to find the velocity 2

v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{m_1}{m_2}}v_1

v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{5}{3}}(7.66)

v_2 = 9.8m/s

From kinetic equation we have that

\Delta V = 2ad

9.899^2 = 2(0.31)(9.8)d

d = 16.12m

Therefore the distance is 16.12m

A sock stuck to the inside of the clothes dryer spins around the drum once every 2.0 s at a distance of 0.50 m from the center o
Rashid [163]

a) 1.57 m/s

The sock spins once every 2.0 seconds, so its period is

T = 2.0 s

Therefore, the angular velocity of the sock is

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{2.0}=3.14 rad/s

The linear speed of the sock is given by

v=\omega r

where

\omega is the angular velocity

r = 0.50 m is the radius of the circular path of the sock

Substituting, we find:

v=(3.14)(0.50)=1.57 m/s

B) Faster

In this case, the drum is twice as wide, so the new radius of the circular path of the sock is twice the previous one:

r' = 2r = 1.00 m

At the same time, the drum spins at the same frequency as before, therefore the angular frequency as not changed:

\omega' = \omega = 3.14 rad/s

Therefore, the new linear speed would be:

v'=\omega' r' = \omega (2r)

And substituting,

v'=(3.14)(1.00)=3.14 rad/s = 2v

So, we see that the linear speed has doubled.

Assume your mass is 60 kg. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . How much work against gravity do you do when you climb
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

W=1705.2 J

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m= 60 kg

Acceleration due to gravity ,g= 9.8 m/s²

Height ,h= 2.9 m

As we know that work done by a force given as

W = F . d

F=force

d=Displacement

W=work done by force

Now by putting the values

F= m g (Acting downward  )

d= h  (Upward)

W= m g h    ( work done against the force)

W= 60 x 9.8 x 2.9 J

W=1705.2 J

Therefore the answer will be 1705.2 J.
