Measure mass of bouncing balls using a balance

Consider the following statements about Newton's 2nd law in general. Select all of the statements that are true. Note, there may

Art [367]

Answer:

1. True

2. False

3. True

Explanation:

Newton's 2nd law states that the net force exerted on an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration:

$\sum F = ma$ (1)

where

$\sum F$ is the net force on the object

m is its mass

a is the acceleration

Furthermore, we know that acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity:

$a = \frac{dv}{dt}$

So let's now analyize the three statements:

1. A net force causes velocity to change: TRUE. Net force (means non-zero) causes a non-zero acceleration, which means that the velocity of the object must change.

2. If an object has a velocity, then we can conclude that there is a net force on the object: FALSE. The fact that the object has a velocity does not imply anything about its acceleration: in fact, if its velocity is constant, then its acceleration is zero, which would mean that the net force on the object is zero. So this statement is not necessarly true.

3. Accelerations are caused by the presence of a net force: TRUE. This is directly implied by eq.(1): the presence of the net force results in the object having a non-zero acceleration.

If an object has a mass of 26 g on earth would its mass be less than 26 g on the moon

aleksley [76]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

No matter where an object is, its mass will stay the same, but its weight might change depending on gravity.

A salt shaker sits 0.102 m from

Ivahew [28]

The maximum speed is 0.55 m/s

Explanation:

For an object in uniform circular motion, the force of friction between the object and the ground provides the centripetal force required to keep the body in motion. Therefore we can write:

$\mu_s mg = m\frac{v^2}{r}$

where the term on the left is the frictional force and the term on the right is the centripetal force, and where

$\mu_s$ is the coefficient of static friction

m is the mass of the body

g is the gravitational acceleration

v is the speed of the body

r is the radius of the circular path

In this problem, we have:

$\mu_s = 0.307$

r = 0.102 m

$g=9.8 m/s^2$

Substituting and re-arranging, we find the maximum speed v at which the salt shaker can rotate:

$v=\sqrt{\mu gr}=\sqrt{(0.307)(9.8)(0.102)}=0.55 m/s$

A 3 inch fire hose has a water flow of 200 gallons per minute. What is the flow in liters per second? Note: Use US gallons not U

stepladder [879]

Answer:

Case I: 12.617 L/s

Case II: 161.406 cubic meters per hour

Case III: 1.062 Pound inches

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Speed of water flow = 200 gallons per minute
Speed of air blow = 95 cubic feet per minute
Measure of Torque = 12 Newton centimeter

<u>Assumptions:</u>

1 US gallon = 3.785 L
1 min = 60 s
1 ft = 0.3048 m
1 h = 60 min
1 inch = 2.54 cm
1 N = 0.2248 lb

Case I:

$Speed\ of\ water\ flow = 200 \dfrac{gallon}{min}\\\Rightarrow V_{water} = 200\times \dfrac{3.785\ L}{60\ s}\\\Rightarrow V_{water} = 12.617\ L/s$

Case II:

$Speed\ of\ air\ blow = 95 \dfrac{ft^3}{min}\\\Rightarrow V_{air} = 95\times \dfrac{(0.3048\ m)^3}{\dfrac{1}{60}\ h}\\\Rightarrow V_{air} = 95\times (0.3048)^3\times 60\ m^3/h\\\Rightarrow V_{air} = 161.406\ m^3/h$

Case III:

$Measure\ of\ torque = 12\ N cm\\\Rightarrow \tau = 12\times (0.2248\ lb)\times \dfrac{1}{2.54}\ in\\ \Rightarrow \tau = 1.062\ lb in$
