You place a solid cylinder of mass M on a ramp that is inclined at an angle β to the horizontal. The coefficient of static frict

ion for the cylinder on the ramp is μs. If the cylinder rolls downhill without slipping, what is the magnitude of the friction force that the ramp exerts on the cylinder? Express your answer in terms of the variables β, M and acceleration due to gravity g.

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the frictional force required be f .

frictional force is responsible in creating rotational motion in the cylinder.

torque created by frictional force = f R

if angular acceleration be α

α = f R / I , I is moment of inertia of cylinder .

α = a / R , a is linear acceleration.

f R / I = a / R

a = f R² / I

linear acceleration a of cylinder down the slope

ma = mgsinθ - f , ( f force is acting upwards and mgsinθ is acting downwards )

mf R² / I = mgsinθ -f

f ( m R² / I + 1) = mgsinθ

f = mgsinθ / ( m R² / I + 1)

= mgsinθ / ( m R² / mk² + 1) , k is radius of gyration of cylinder.

= mgsinθ / ( R² / k² + 1)

Putting the given values

f = Mgsinβ /( R² / k² + 1)

for cylinder , R² / k² = 2

f = Mgsinβ /3

Velocity is a vector quantity which has both magnitude and direction. ... Net force is also a vector quantity which has both mag

GuDViN [60]

When the object is moving in the elliptical orbit, it means that the direction of its acceleration should be towards the two foci (plural of focus) of the ellipse to keep the elliptical motion. As force according to the Newton's second law: F = ma, the net force must be in the direction of the acceleration. As far as the magnitude of net force is concerned, you can use Newton's gravitational law to find its magnitude.

A spatially challenged goldfish swims along the x-axis only. Its initial position is 7.8 m. After swimming back and forth a whil

Verdich [7]

Answer:

<em>The fish displacement was -3.4 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Distance and Displacement</u>

A moving object constantly travels some distance at defined periods of time. The total moved distance is the sum of each individual distance the object traveled. It can be written as:

dtotal=d1+d2+d3+...+dn

This sum is obtained independently of the direction the object moves.

The displacement only takes into consideration the initial and final points of the path defined by the object in its moving. The displacement, unlike distance, is a vectorial magnitude and can be even zero if the object starts and ends the movement at the same point.

The displacement, when the object moves in one axis only is given by:

d = final position - initial position

We know the fist started at 7.8 m from a given reference along the x-axis.

After some undisclosed movements, it ends up at the position 4.4 m. Thus, the displacement is:

d = 4.4 m - 7.8 m = -3.4 m

This means the fish ended up to the left of the position it started from.

The fish displacement was -3.4 m

A 5.30kg block hangs from a spring with a spring constant 1700 N/m. The block is pulled down 4.50cm from the equilibrium positio

Andru [333]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the frequency in a spring, the conservation of energy and the total mechanical energy in the body (kinetic or potential as the case may be)

PART A) By definition the frequency in a spring is given by the equation

$f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

Where,

m = mass

k = spring constant

Our values are,

k=1700N/m

m=5.3 kg

Replacing,

$f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{1700}{5.3}}$

$f=2.85 Hz$

PART B) To solve this section it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of energy both potential (simple harmonic) and kinetic in the spring.

$\frac{1}{2}kA^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} kY^2$

Where,

k = Spring constant

m = mass

y = Vertical compression

v = Velocity

This expression is equivalent to,

$kA^2 =mV^2 +ky^2$

Our values are given as,

k=1700 N/m

V=1.70 m/s

y=0.045m

m=5.3 kg

Replacing we have,

$1700*A^2=5.3*1.7^2 +1700*(0.045)^2$

Solving for A,

$A^2 = \frac{5.3*1.7^2 +1700*(0.045)^2}{1700}$

$A ^2 = 0.011035$

$A=0.105 m \approx 10.5 cm$

PART C) Finally, the total mechanical energy is given by the equation

$E = \frac{1}{2}kA^2$

$E=\frac{1}{2}1700*(0.105)^2$

$E= 9.3712 J$
