Answer:

1.42 s

Explanation:

The equation for free fall of an object starting from rest is generally written as

s=\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the vertical distance covered

a is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time

On this celestial body, the equation is

s=10.04 t^2

this means that

\frac{1}{2}g = 10.04

so the acceleration of gravity on the body is

g=2\cdot 10.04 = 20.08 m/s^2

The velocity of an object in free fall starting from rest is given by

v=gt

In this case,

g = 20.08 m/s^2

So the time taken to reach a velocity of

v = 28.6 m/s

is

t=\frac{v}{g}=\frac{28.6 m/s}{20.08 m/s^2}=1.42 s

Two objects, M = 15.3 ks and m = 8.29 kg are connected with an ideal string and suspended by a pulley (which rotates with no fri
Scilla [17]

Answer:

(a) 7 m/s

(b) 931 rad/s

(c) 0.716 s

Explanation:

Gravity would be exerting on the 2 masses

G_1 = Mg = 15.3*9.81 = 150.093N

G_2 = mg = 8.29*9.81= 81.32N

Since heavier, mass 1 (M) would be the one pulling down, while mass 2 is being pulled up.

So the net force on mass 1 is

F = G_1 - G_2 = 68.77N

This force would generate torque on the solid pulley

T = FR = 68.77 * 0.0075 = 0.5158 Nm

We can also calculate the pulley moments of inertia, with it being solid

I = 0.5MpR^2 = 0.5*14.1*0.0075^2 = 0.000396563kgm^2

From there we can calculate the angular acceleration of the pulley, which generates the entire system motion

\alpha = \frac{T}{I} = \frac{0.5158}{0.000396563} = 1300.58 rad/s^2

Since the system is moved by a distance of d = 2.5m, the pulley would have turn an angle of

\theta = \frac{d}{R} = \frac{2.5}{0.0075} = 333 rad

(c)The time it takes to get to this distance is

\theta = \frac{\alpha t^2}{2}

t^2 = \frac{2\theta}{\alpha} = \frac{2*333}{1300.58} =0.513

t = \sqrt{0.513} = 0.716s

(b)The final angular speed of the disk is

\omega = \alpha t = 1300.58*0.716 = 931 rad/s

(a) And so the perimeter speed of the pulley, which is also speed of mass 1 when it comes to d = 2.5 m is

v = \omega R = 931*0.0075 \approx 7m/s

Two parallel wires are separated by 6.10 cm, each carrying 2.85 A of current in the same direction. (a) What is the magnitude of
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The force per unit length is 2.66 \times 10^{-5} \ N/m

Explanation:

The current carrying by each wires = 2.85 A

The current in both wires flows in same direction.

The gap between the wires = 6.10 cm

Now we will use the below expression for the force per unit length. Moreover, before using the below formula we have to change the unit centimetre into meter. So, we just divide the centimetre with 100.

F/l = \frac{\mu _0i_1 i_2}{2\pi d} \\i_1 = 2.85 \\i_ 2 = 2.85  \\\mu _0 = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \\d = 0.061 \\F/l = \frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7} \times 2.85 \times 2.85}{2 \pi \times 0.061} \\= 2.66 \times 10^{-5} \ N/m

How are force and motion related

Force is used to put things in motion you can’t have motion without force!
Even if it just pushing a piece of paper you still use force to put the paper in motion!
