Answer:

The bodies will not come back to their starting point at he same time.

Explanation:

Since they are both pulled back at an angle to the vertical, there is a tangential component of acceleration a = gsinθ

When θ = 4 , a = 9.8sin4 = 0.684 m/s²

When θ = 8 , a = 9.8sin8 = 1.364 m/s²

Using s = ut + 1/2at². Where s is the distance covered and t = time taken, u = initial speed = 0 (assumed since they are both released at the same time)

So s = 0 × t + 1/2at² = 1/2at²

s = 1/2at²

t = √2s/a. Now, since s is the same for both swings, it follows that

t ∝ 1/a. Since their accelerations are different, the bodies will not come back to their starting point at he same time.

Answer:

They will come back at the same time.

Explanation:

The angular velocity equation of ω= \frac{V}{r} where ω is the frequency of the movement, dependent on the angle. But since swings are simple pendulums and their angles of 8 and 4 degrees are small, they will come back to their starting points at the same time.

I hope this answer helps.

What is the hang time when the person moves 6 m horizontally during a 1.25 m high jump?
AlekseyPX

Answer:

1 sec

Explanation:

Horizontal distance (x) = 6m

Vertical distance (y) = 1.25m

Hang time is the duration the object is in the air before it reaches maximum height.

The time of free fall is given by

t = √2y/g

g = acceleration due to gravity

t = √(2*1.25)/9.8

t = √2.5/9.8

t = 0.5secs

Hang time = 2*0.5

= 1 sec

A professor's office door is 0.91 m wide, 2.0 m high, and 4.0 cm thick; has a mass of 25 kg; and pivots on frictionless hinges.
olasank [31]

Answer:

F= 5.71 N

Explanation:

width of door= 0.91 m

door closer torque on door= 5.2 Nm

In order to hold the door in open position we need to exert an equal and opposite torque, to the door closer torque, on the door.

so wee need to exert 5.2 Nm torque on the door.

If we want to apply minimum force to exert the required torque we need to apply force perpendicularly on the door knob (end of door) so that to to greater moment arm.

T= r x F

T= r F sin∅

F= T/ (r * sin∅)

F= 5.2/ (0.91 * 1)

F= 5.71 N
