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

You lift a large bag of flour from the floor to a 2.5m high counter, doing 400J of work in 2 seconds. How much force did you app

<h2>The man have to apply force of 160 N</h2>

Explanation:

The work done to lift the bag of weight mg through height 2.5 m is 400 J

The work done can be found by relation W = mg x h

Thus mg = $\frac{W}{h}$ = $\frac{400}{2.5}$ = 160 N

Therefore the man have to apply the force of 160 N

Fill in the blank. Consider the inverse square law: When light leaves a light bulb, it spreads out over more and more space as i

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of light is inversely proportional to distance from source

I ∝ 1 /r² where I is intensity and r is distance from source . If I₁ and I₂ be intensity at distance r₁ and r₂ .

I₁ /I₂ = r₂² /r₁²

If r₂ = 4r₁ ( given )

I₁ / I₂ = (4r₁ )² / r₁²

= 16 r₁² / r₁²

I₁ / I₂ = 16

I₂ = I₁ / 16

So intensity will become 16 times less bright .

"16 times " is the answer .

At t = 0 the components of a radio-controlled car's velocity are vx = 0.5 m/s and vy = 1.2 m/s. Find the components of the car's

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

x-component of velocity = 5.7 m/s

y-component of velocity = -1.4 m/s

Explanation:

Use first equation of motion to find components of velocity at a given time:

$v = u + at$

where, $v$ is the final velocity, $u$ is the initial velocity, $a$ is the acceleration and $t$ is the time.

Given:

$u_x= 0.5 m/s\\u_y=1.2 m/s\\a_x=2 m/s^2\\a_y=-1m/s^2\\t = (2.6-0)s =2.6 s$

$v_x=u_x+a_xt\\\Rightarrow v_x=0.5+2\times 2.6\\\Rightarrow v_x=5.7 m/s$

$v_y=u_y+a_yt\\\Rightarrow v_y=1.2-1\times 2.6\\\Rightarrow v_y=-1.4 m/s$

What is the value of x in the equation below 1+2e^x+1=9

GuDViN [60]

<h2>Answer: 1.252</h2>

Explanation:

We are given this equation and we need to find the value of $x$ :

$1+2e^x+1=9$ (1)

Firstly, we have to clear $x$ :

$2e^x=9-1-1$

$2e^x=7$

$e^x=\frac{7}{2}$ (2)

Applying<u> Natural Logarithm</u> on both sides of the equation (2):

$ln(e^x)=ln(\frac{7}{2})$ (3)

$xln(e)=ln(\frac{7}{2})$ (4)

According to the Natural Logarithm rules $xln(e)=x$ , so (4) can be written as:

$x=ln(\frac{7}{2})$ (5)

Finally:

$x=1.252$
