The cheetah is considered the fastest running animal in the world. Cheetahs can accelerate to a speed of 21.7 m/s in 2.50 s and
viktelen [127]

Answer:

1) 64.2 mi/h

2) 3.31 seconds

3) 47.5 m

4) 5.26 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 2.5 s

u = Initial velocity = 0 m/s

v = Final velocity = 21.7 m/s

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

1) Top speed = 28.7 m/s

1 mile = 1609.344 m

1\ m=\frac{1}{1609.344}\ miles

1 hour = 60×60 seconds

1\ s=\frac{1}{3600}\ hours

28.7\ m/s=\frac{\frac{28.7}{1609.344}}{\frac{1}{3600}}=64.2\ mi/h

Top speed of the cheetah is 64.2 mi/h

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{21.7-0}{2.5}\\\Rightarrow a=8.68\ m/s^2

Acceleration of the cheetah is 8.68 m/s²

2)

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{28.7-0}{8.68}\\\Rightarrow t=3.31\ s

It takes a cheetah 3.31 seconds to reach its top speed.

3)

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{28.7^2-0^2}{2\times 8.68}\\\Rightarrow s=47.5\ m

It travels 47.5 m in that time

4) When s = 120 m

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 120=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 8.68\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{120\times 2}{8.68}}\\\Rightarrow t=5.26\ s

The time it takes the cheetah to reach a rabbit is 120 m is 5.26 seconds

The horizontal beam in Fig. E11.14 weighs 190 N, and its center of gravity is at its center. Find (a) the tension in the cable a
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

(a). The tension in the cable is 658.33 N.

(b). The horizontal components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall is 526.66 N.

(c). The vertical components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall is 95.002 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of beam= 190 N

Here, The center of gravity is at its center

According to figure,

The angle is

\sin\theta=\dfrac{3}{5}

The horizontal component is

T_{x}=T\cos\theta

The vertical component is

T_{y}=T\sin\theta

(a). We need to calculate the tension in the cable

Using formula of net torque acting on the pivot

\sum\tau=F_{b}\times r+F_{w}\times r'-T\sin \theta\times r'

Put the value into the formula

0=190\times2+300\times 4-T\sin\theta\times 4

T\sin\theta\times 4=380+1200

T=\dfrac{1580\times5}{3\times 4}

T=658.33\ N

(b). We need to calculate the horizontal components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall

Using formula of horizontal component

F_{x}=T\cos\theta

Put the value into the formula

F_{x}=658.33\times\dfrac{4}{5}

F_{x}=526.66\ N

(c). We need to calculate the vertical components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall

Using formula of vertical component

F_{y}=F_{b}+F_{w}-T\sin\theta

Put the value into the formula

F_{y}=190+300-658.33\times\dfrac{3}{5}

F_{y}=95.002\ N

Hence, (a). The tension in the cable is 658.33 N.

(b). The horizontal components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall is 526.66 N.

(c). The vertical components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall is 95.002 N.

A 2000 kg roller coaster is at the top of a loop with a radius of 24 m. If its speed is 18 m/s at this point, what force does it
levacccp [35]

Answer:

46620\ \text{N}

Explanation:

m = Mass of roller coaster = 2000 kg

r = Radius of loop = 24 m

v = Velocity of roller coaster = 18 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

Normal force at the point will be

N-mg=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow N=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}+mg\\\Rightarrow N=\dfrac{2000\times 18^2}{24}+2000\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow N=46620\ \text{N}

The force exerted on the track is 46620\ \text{N}.

The flywheel of a steam engine runs with a constant angular speed of 113 $rev/min$. When steam is shut off, the friction of the
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

α = - 1.883 rev/min²

Explanation:

Given

ωin = 113 rev/min

ωfin = 0 rev/min

t = 1.0 h = 60 min

α = ?

we can use the following equation

ωfin = ωin + α*t      ⇒     α = (ωfin - ωin) / t

⇒     α = (0 rev/min - 113 rev/min) / (60 min)

⇒     α = - 1.883 rev/min²
