A dumbbell consists of two point-like masses M connected by a massless rod of length 2L. There are no external forces. If the du

mbbell rotates with angular velocity w while its center of mass moves linearly (translates) with velocity v such that v = ωL, the ratio of the rotational kinetic energy to the translational (linear) kinetic energy is:

Answer:

2

Explanation:

The rotational kinetic energy of the dumbbell is:

E_r = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2

where I is the moments of inertia of the two point-like system

I = 2Mr^2 = 2ML^2

E_r = ML^2\omega^2

The translation kinetic energy is:

E_t = \frac{1}{2}Mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}M\omega^2L^2

Therefore the ratio of the rotational kinetic energy to the translational (linear) kinetic energy is:

\frac{E_r}{E_t} = \frac{ML^2\omega^2}{\frac{1}{2}M\omega^2L^2} = 2

A string of length 100 cm is held fixed at both ends and vibrates in a standing wave pattern. The wavelengths of the constituent
azamat

The wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves CANNOT be 400 cm.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Length of the string, L = 100 cm</em>

<em />

The wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves is calculated as follows;

L = \frac{n \lambda}{2} \\\\n\lambda = 2L\\\\\lambda = \frac{2L}{n}

for first mode: n = 1

\lambda = \frac{2\times 100 \ cm}{1} \\\\\lambda = 200 \ cm

for second mode: n = 2

\lambda = \frac{2L}{2} = L = 100 \ cm

For the third mode: n = 3

\lambda = \frac{2L}{3} \\\\\lambda = \frac{2 \times 100}{3} = 67 \ cm

For fourth mode: n = 4

\lambda = \frac{2L}{4} \\\\\lambda = \frac{2 \times 100}{4} = 50  \ cm

Thus, we can conclude that, the wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves CANNOT be 400 cm.

The complete question is below:

A string of length 100 cm is held fixed at both ends and vibrates in a standing wave pattern. The wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves CANNOT be:

A. 400 cm

B. 200 cm

C. 100 cm

Now let’s apply the work–energy theorem to a more complex, multistep problem. In a pile driver, a steel hammerhead with mass 200
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

a) v = 7.67

b) n = 81562 N

Explanation:

Given:-

- The mass of hammer-head, m = 200 kg

- The height at from which hammer head drops, s12 = 3.00 m

- The amount of distance the I-beam is hammered, s23 = 7.40 cm

- The resistive force by contact of hammer-head and I-beam, F = 60.0 N

Find:-

(a) the speed of the hammerhead just as it hits the I-beam and

(b) the average force the hammerhead exerts on the I-beam.

Solution:-

- We will consider the hammer head as our system and apply the conservation of energy principle because during the journey of hammer-head up till just before it hits the I-beam there are no external forces acting on the system:

                                   ΔK.E = ΔP.E

                                  K_2 - K_1 = P_1- P_2

Where,  K_2: Kinetic energy of hammer head as it hits the I-beam

             K_1: Initial kinetic energy of hammer head ( = 0 ) ... rest

             P_2: Gravitational potential energy of hammer head as it hits the I-beam. (Datum = 0)

             P_1: Initial gravitational potential energy of hammer head      

- The expression simplifies to:

                                K_2 = P_1

Where,                     0.5*m*v2^2 = m*g*s12

                                v2 = √(2*g*s12) = √(2*9.81*3)

                                v2 = 7.67 m/s

- For the complete journey we see that there are fictitious force due to contact between hammer-head and I-beam the system is no longer conserved. All the kinetic energy is used to drive the I-beam down by distance s23. We will apply work energy principle on the system:

                               Wnet = ( P_3 - P_1 ) + W_friction

                               Wnet = m*g*s13 + F*s23

                               n*s23 = m*g*s13 + F*s23

Where,    n: average force the hammerhead exerts on the I-beam.

               s13 = s12 + s23

Hence,

                             n = m*g*( s12/s23 + 1) + F

                             n = 200*9.81*(3/0.074 + 1) + 60

                             n = 81562 N

The electric field due to two point charges is found by: a) finding the stronger field. The net field will just be equal to the
alekssr [168]

Answer:

b)determining the electric field due to each charge and adding them together as vectors.

Explanation:

The electric Field is a vector quantity, in other words it has a magnitude and a direction. On the other hand, the electric field follows the law of superposition. The electric field produced by two elements is equal to the sum of the electric fields produced by each element when the other element is not present. in other words, the total electric field is solved determining the electric field due to each charge and adding them together as vectors.
