Block A can slide relative to block B which, in turn, can slide on a perfectly smooth horizontal plane. If the initial velocity

of A is v0, and the initial velocity of B is 0, find the final velocities of the two blocks and the distance that A slides relative to B.

Answer:

the final velocity of the two blocks is v = \frac{mv_o}{m+M}

the distance that A slides relative to B is S = \frac{v_o^2M}{2 \mu g (M+m)}  

Explanation:

From the diagram below;

acceleration of A relative to B is : a = - ( \mu g  + \frac{ \mu mg}{M})

where

v = u + at

0 = v_o + ( - \mu g - \frac{\mu m g }{M})t

Making t the subject of the formula; we have:

t = \frac{v_o M}{(\mu g )(M+m)}

v^2 = u^2 +2 as\\\\0^2 = v_o^2 - 2 (\mu g ) (\frac{M+m}{M})S\\\\

S = \frac{v_o^2M}{2 \mu g (M+m)}  which implies the distance that A slides relative to B.

The final velocities of the two blocks can be determined as follows:

v = u + at

v = v_o - \mu g \frac{v_oM}{\mu g (M+m)}\\\\v = \frac{\mu g mv_o}{m+M}\\\\

v = \frac{mv_o}{m+M}

Thus, the final velocity of the two blocks is v = \frac{mv_o}{m+M}

A 40.0 kg beam is attached to a wall with a hi.nge and its far end is supported by a cable. The angle between the beam and the c
GalinKa [24]

The magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge will be,261.12N.

To find the answer, we need to know about the tension.

<h3>How to find the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge?</h3>
  • Let's draw the free body diagram of the system using the given data.
  • From the diagram, we have to find the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge.
  • For that, it is given that the horizontal component of force is equal to the 86.62N, which is same as that of the horizontal component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge.

                           N_x=86.62N

  • We have to find the vertical component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge. For this, we have to equate the total force in the vertical direction.

                           N_y=F_V=mg-Tsin59\\

  • To find Ny, we need to find the tension T.
  • For this, we can equate the net horizontal force.

                           F_H=N_x=Tcos59\\\\T=\frac{F_H}{cos59} =\frac{86.62}{0.51}= 169.84N

  • Thus, the vertical component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge become,

                    N_y= (40*9.8)-(169.8*sin59)=246.4N

  • Thus, the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge will be,

                 N=\sqrt{N_x^2+N_y^2} =\sqrt{(86.62)^2+(246.4)^2}=261.12N

Thus, we can conclude that, the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge is 261.12N.

A soccer player kicks a rock horizontally off a 37 m high cliff into a pool of water. If the player hears the sound of the splas
Alchen [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em><u>(a). 16.741 m/s</u></em>

<em><u>(b). 15.75 m/s</u></em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In the question,

Height of the cliff, h = 37 m

Time taken to reach the sound to us = 2.92 s

Speed of the sound in air at room temperature = 343 m/s

Now,

Let us say the speed of the ball = u m/s

So,

Time taken by the ball to reach at the bottom, t is given by,

t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 37}{9.8}}\\t=2.747\,s

So,

Splash is heard after = 2.92 s

So,

<u>Time taken by sound to travel the shortest distance along the hypotenuse of the triangle</u> thus formed is,

t = 2.92 - 2.747

t = 0.172 s

Now,

Distance traveled by sound is given by,

Distance=343\times 0.172\\Distance=59.02\,m

So,

In the triangle using the Pythagoras Theorem,

Horizontal distance traveled is,

D=\sqrt{59.02^{2}-37^{2}}\\D=45.99\,m

So,

Speed of throwing of ball is given by,

Distance=Speed\times Time\\45.99=u\times 2.747\\u=16.741\,m/s

<em><u>Therefore, the speed of the ball = 16.741 m/s.</u></em>

(b).

If,

Speed of sound = 331 m/s

So,

<u>Distance traveled by sound</u> is,

Distance=331\times 0.172\\Distance=56.932\,m

So,

Distance traveled in the horizontal by ball is,

Distance=\sqrt{56.932^{2}-37^{2}}\\Distance=43.269\,m

So,

Speed of the ball thrown is given by,

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\Speed=\frac{43.269}{2.747}\\Speed=15.75\,m/s

<em><u>Therefore, the speed of the ball = 15.75 m/s.</u></em>

Un automovil parte del reposo y acelera uniformemente hasta alcanzar una rapidez de 0,255km/h en un tiempo de 3/4 Minutos determ
Elden [556K]

Answer:

a = 1.5*10^-3 m/s^2

x = 0.033m = 3.3cm

Explanation:

To calculate the acceleration and the distance traveled by the car you use the following formulas:

v=v_o+at    (1)

x=v_ot+\frac{1}{2}at^2   (2)

v: final velocity = 0,255 km/h

vo: initial velocity = 0 m/s

t: time = 3/4 min

a: acceleration = ?

x: distance

In order to use the equations (1) and (2) you first convert the units of the final velocity to m/s, and the time to seconds.

v=0,255\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}\\\\v=0.07m/s\\\\t=\frac{3}{4}min*\frac{60s}{1min}=45s

Next, you solve the equation (1) for the acceleration a:

a=\frac{v}{t}=\frac{0.07m/s}{45s}=1.5*10^{-3}\frac{m}{s^2}

With this value of a you can calculate the distance traveled by the car, by using the equation (2):

x=\frac{1}{2}(1.5*10^{-3}m/s^2)(45s)^2=0.033m=3.3cm

hence, the acceleration of the car is 1.5*10^-3 m/s^2 and the distance traveled in 3/4 min is 0.033m
