•• CP Two blocks connected by a light horizontal rope sit at rest on a horizontal, frictionless surface. Block AA has mass 15.0

kg, and block BB has mass mm. A constant horizontal force F=60.0 NF=60.0 N is applied to block AA (Fig. P4.38). In the first 5.00 s after the force is applied, block AA moves 18.0 m to the right. (a) While the blocks are moving, what is the tension TT in the rope that connects the two blocks? (b) What is the mass of block B?

Answer:

(a) T= 38.4 N

(b) m= 26.67 kg

Explanation:

We apply Newton's second law:

∑F = m*a (Formula 1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass in kilograms (kg)

a : acceleration in meters over second square (m/s²)

Kinematics

d= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t² (Formula 2)

d:displacement in meters (m)  

t : time in seconds (s)

v₀: initial speed in m/s  

vf: final speed in m/s  

a: acceleration in m/s²

v₀=0, d=18 m , t=5 s

We apply the formula 2 to calculate the accelerations of the blocks:

d= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t²

18= 0+  (1/2)*a*(5)²

a= (2*18) / ( 25) = 1.44 m/s² to the right

We apply Newton's second law to the block A

∑Fx = m*ax

60-T = 15*1.44

60 - 15*1.44 = T

T = 38.4 N

We apply Newton's second law to the block B

∑Fx = m*ax

T = m*ax

38.4 = m*1.44

m= (38.4) / (1.44)

m = 26.67 kg

A 55.0-g sample of hot metal initially at 99.5oC was added to 40.0 g of water in a Styrofoam coffee cup calorimeter. The water a
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Cp= 0.44 J/g.C

This is heat capacity of metal.

Explanation:

From energy conservation

Heat lost by metal = Heat gain by water +Heat gain by  calorimeter

Because here temperature of metal is high that is why it loose the heat.The temperature of water and  calorimeter is low that is why they gain the heat.

final temperature is T= 30.5 C

We know that sensible heat transfer given as

Q= m Cp ΔT

m=Mass

Cp=Specific heat capacity

ΔT=Temperature difference

By putting the values

55 x Cp ( 99.5 - 30.5) = 40 x 4.184 ( 30.5- 21 ) + 10 x ( 30.5 - 21)

Cp ( 99 .5- 30.5) = 30.65

Cp= 0.44 J/g.C

This is heat capacity of metal.

A 10.0-kg box starts at rest on a level floor. An external, horizontal force of 2.00 × 102 N is applied to the box for a distanc
Harman [31]

Answer:

vf = 11.2 m/s

Explanation:

m = 10 Kg

F = 2*10² N

x = 4.00 m

μ = 0.44

vi = 0 m/s

vf = ?

We can apply Newton's 2nd Law

∑ Fx = m*a   (→)

F - Ffriction = m*a  ⇒  F - (μ*N) = F - (μ*m*g) = m*a   ⇒  a = (F - μ*m*g)/m

⇒    a = (2*10² N - 0.44*10 Kg*9.81 m/s²)/10 Kg = 15.6836 m/s²

then , we use the equation

vf² = vi² + 2*a*x    ⇒    vf = √(vi² + 2*a*x)

⇒   vf = √((0)² + 2*(15.6836 m/s²)*(4.00m)) = 11.2 m/s
