Which form of the law of conservation of energy describes the motion of the block when it slides from the top of the table to th

e bottom of the ramp?

Mnenie [13.5K]3 years ago

By definition we have that the energy at the top of the ramp is equal to the energy at the bottom of the ramp. This is due to the principle of energy conservation.

We have then:

E1 = E2

The energy at the top is only potential energy:

E1 = mgh

Where,

  • <em>m: mass </em>
  • <em>g: acceleration of gravity </em>
  • <em>h: vertical height of the ramp </em>

The energy when it falls is transformed into kinetic energy and therefore:

E2 = \frac {1} {2} mv ^ 2

Where,

  • <em>v: object speed. </em>

Therefore we have:

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

Answer:

The potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy.

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

Why is current a scalar quantity?
Nutka1998 [239]
Despite current has a magnitude and a direction, like vectors, it is a scalar because it doesn't obey laws of vector addition. For instance, if we  consider a junction of 90^{\circ} in a circuit, and two currents entering this junction, we know that the resultant current is just the algebraic sum of the two currents, not the vector sum, so it is not a vector quantity.

Ml(d^2θ/dt^2) =-mgθ
Nata [24]

The equation of motion of a pendulum is:

\dfrac{\textrm{d}^2\theta}{\textrm{d}t^2} = -\dfrac{g}{\ell}\sin\theta,

where \ell it its length and g is the gravitational acceleration. Notice that the mass is absent from the equation! This is quite hard to solve, but for <em>small</em> angles (\theta \ll 1), we can use:

\sin\theta \simeq \theta.

Additionally, let us define:

\omega^2\equiv\dfrac{g}{\ell}.

We can now write:

\dfrac{\textrm{d}^2\theta}{\textrm{d}t^2} = -\omega^2\theta.

The solution to this differential equation is:

\theta(t) = A\sin(\omega t + \phi),

where A and \phi are constants to be determined using the initial conditions. Notice that they will not have any influence on the period, since it is given simply by:

T = \dfrac{2\pi}{\omega} = 2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{\ell}}.

This justifies that the period depends only on the pendulum's length.

A 68 kg crate is dragged across a floor by pulling on a rope attached to the crate and inclined 13° above the horizontal. (a) if
Blababa [14]
<span>Answer: Therefore, x component: Tcos(24°) - f = 0 y component: N + Tsin(24°) - mg = 0 The two equations I get from this are: f = Tcos(24°) N = mg - Tsin(24°) In order for the crate to move, the friction force has to be greater than the normal force multiplied by the static coefficient, so... Tcos(24°) = 0.47 * (mg - Tsin(24°)) From all that I can get the equation I need for the tension, which, after some algebraic manipulation, yields: T = (mg * static coefficient) / (cos(24°) + sin(24°) * static coefficient) Then plugging in the values... T = 283.52. Reference https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/difficulty-with-force-problems-involving-friction.111768/</span>
