Total mechanical energy (The sum of kinetic and potential energy

Physics
1 answer:
victus00 [196]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Emechanical=mgh+\frac{1}{2}mν²

Explanation:

The equation for the total mechanical energy is:

Emechanical=Epotential+Ekinetic

In which,

Epotential=mgh; m: mass of the body, g: gravity; h: height

Ekinetic=\frac{1}{2}mν²; m: mass of the body, ν: velocity of the body

So,

Emechanical=mgh+\frac{1}{2}mν²

A motorcycle is traveling up one side of a hill and down the other side. The crest of the hill is a circular arc with a radius o
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

21.8 m/s

Explanation:

At the top of the hill (crest), there are two forces acting on the motorcycle:

- The reaction force of the road, N (upward)

- The force of gravity, mg (downward)

Since the motorcycle is moving by circular motion, the resultant of these forces will give the centripetal force, so:

mg-N = m\frac{v^2}{r}

where the direction of the weight (mg) is equal to that of the centripetal force, and where

m is the mass of the cycle

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

v is the speed

r = 48.6 is the radius of the hill

The cycle loses contact with the road when the reaction force becomes zero:

N = 0

Substituting into the equation, we therefore find the maximum speed that is allowed for the cycle before losing constact:

mg = m\frac{v^2}{r}\\v=\sqrt{gr}=\sqrt{(9.8)(48.6)}=21.8 m/s

John is carrying a shovelful of snow. The center of mass of the 3.00 kg of snow he is holding is 15.0 cm from the end of the sho
Andru [333]

Answer:

James is correct here as the force of hand pushing upwards is always more than the force of hand pushing down

Explanation:

Here we know that one hand is pushing up at some distance midway while other hand is balancing the weight by applying a force downwards

so here we can say

Upwards force = downwards Force + weight of snow

while if we find the other force which is acting downwards

then for that force we can say that net torque must be balanced

so here we have

F_{down} L_1 = W_{snow} L_2

so here we have

F_{down} = \frac{L_2}{L_1} (W_{snow})

so here we can say that upward force by which we push up is always more than the downwards force

It has been argued that power plants should make use of off-peak hours to generate mechanical energy and store it until it is ne
sdas [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

90 rpm = 90 / 60 rps

= 1.5 rps

= 1.5 x 2π rad /s

angular velocity of flywheel

ω = 3π rad /s

Let I be the moment of inertia of flywheel

kinetic energy = (1/2) I ω²

(1/2) I ω² = 10⁷ J

I = 2 x  10⁷ / ω²

=2 x  10⁷ / (3π)²

= 2.2538 x 10⁵ kg m²

Let radius of wheel be R

I = 1/2 M R² , M is mass of flywheel

= 1/2 πR² x t x d x R² , t is thickness , d is density of wheel .

1/2 πR⁴ x t x d = 2.2538 x 10⁵

R⁴ = 2 x 2.2538 x 10⁵ / πt d

= 4.5076 x 10⁵ / 3.14 x .1 x 7800

= 184

R= 3.683 m .

diameter = 7.366 m .

b ) centripetal accn required

= ω² R

= 9π² x 3.683

= 326.816 m /s²
