A 3.00-kg ball swings rapidly in a complete vertical circle of radius 2.00 m by a light string that is fixed at one end. The bal

l moves so fast that the string is always taut and perpendicular to the velocity of the ball. As the ball swings from its lowest point to its highest point, what is the work done by gravity and by the tension?

Answer:

  • The gravity does a work of - 117.6 Joules.
  • The tension does not do work as the force is perpendicular to the direction of motion at any point in the trajectory.

Explanation:

The work done by the gravity simply is the difference in gravitational potential energy multiplied by -1:

W_g = - \Delta E_p = - (mgh_f  - m g h_i)

where m is the mass of the ball, g is the acceleration due to gravity, h_f is the final height and h_i is the initial height.

So, if the radius is 2.00 m, then the difference of height will be 4 meters:

W_g = - mg (h_f - h_i)

W_g = - 3.00 \ kg \ 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} \ 4 \m

W_g = - 117.6 Joules

As the tension is perpendicular to the velocity of the ball, the force is always perpendicular to the direction of motion. So, the differential of work will be:

dW = \vec{F}  d\vec{r} = 0

(Figure 1) shows the angular-velocity-versus-time graph for a particle moving in a circle. How many revolutions does the object
Travka [436]

Answer: 10.34

Explanation:

Given

\omega -t graph for a particle is given

angle turned by the particle in radians is given by the area under \omega -t graph

The area is given by

A=20\times (2-0)+10(4-2)+\dfrac{1}{2}\times (20-10)\times (3-2)\\A=40+20+5=65\ rad

Revolutions(N) made by the object is given by

N=\dfrac{65}{2\pi }=10.34

Dos cargas puntuales q1 = −50μC y q2 = +30μC se encuentran
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Datos:

q1 = -50 μC = 50*10^{-6}

q2 = +30 μC = 30*10^{-6}

F = 10 N

a) x si la <em>F = 10N</em>

Aplicando la Ley de Coulomb:

x = \sqrt\frac{k0 * q1 *q2}{F} = \sqrt\frac{(9*10^{9} )*(50*10^{-6})*(30*10^{-6})}{10} = 1,162m

b) x si la <em>F = 20 N</em>

x=<em> </em>\sqrt\frac{(9*10^{9} )*(50*10^{-6})*(30*10^{-6})}{20}<em> </em>= 0,822m

c)x si la <em>F = 50 N</em>

x = \sqrt\frac{(9*10^{9} )*(50*10^{-6})*(30*10^{-6})}{50} = 0,520m

Explain how you can cause light separated by a prism to combine
r-ruslan [8.4K]
When you shine a lite through a prism is reflects out light through all of the edges and causes light separation. Or just simply shine a laser through the edge of a sideways piece of glass.

I hope that this was helpful for you.

WhAT is the change IN THE entropy of 2.0kg of h2o molecules when transform at a constant pressure of 1 atm from water at 100 deg
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

The entropy change is 45.2 kJ/K.

Explanation:

mass of water at 100 C = 2 kg

Latent heat of vaporization, L = 2260 kJ/kg

Heat is

H = m L

H = 2 x 2260 = 4520 kJ

Entropy is given by

S = H/T = 4520/100 = 45.2 kJ/K
