A homeowner is trying to move a stubborn rock from his yard. By using a a metal rod as a lever arm and a fulcrum (or pivot point

) the homeowner will have a better chance of moving the rock. The homeowner places the fulcrum a distance ????=0.266 md=0.266 m from the rock, which has a mass of 325 kg,325 kg, and fits one end of the rod under the rock's center of weight. If the homeowner can apply a maximum force of 663 N at the other end of the rod, what is the minimum total length L of the rod required to move the rock? Assume that the rod is massless and nearly horizontal so that the weight of the rock and homeowner's force are both essentially vertical.

Answer:

L = 1.545 m

Explanation:

Let the total length of the rod is L

now the torque must applied on the other end of the rod so that it will balance the torque due to weight of rock on other side of fulcrum

so we will have

mg \times d = F(L - d)

so we have

325\times 9.8 \times 0.266 = F(L - 0.266)

F = 663 N

848 = 663(L - 0.266)

L = 1.545 m

What is a stream’s discharge rate if it has a width of 10 meters, a depth of 2 meters, and a velocity of 2 meters per second?
julia-pushkina [17]

A stream’s discharge rate if it has a width of 10 meters, a depth of 2 meters, and a velocity of 2 meters per second will be 40 m^{3}/sec .

Discharge rate = velocity * area

                 = velocity * depth * width

                 = 2 * 2 * 10 = 40 m^{3}/sec

A stream’s discharge rate if it has a width of 10 meters, a depth of 2 meters, and a velocity of 2 meters per second will be 40 m^{3}/sec .

15. A machine must move an object 15.1 meters by exerting a 121 Newton force. If the machine
Tcecarenko [31]

The power provided by the machine is 13.24 W.

Answer:

Explanation:

Power is determined as the ratio of work done by the system or on the system to the time interval. As the work done is equal to the product of force acting on the system or by the system with the  displacement experienced by the system. The power provided by the machine will be

Power = Work done /Time

As the force is given as 121 N and the displacement is given as 15.1 m in a time interval of 2.3 minutes. The time interval should be changed to seconds for each solving ability.

Time taken = 2.3 * 60 s = 138 s

Power = (121×15.1)/138 = 13.24 W.

So the power provided by the machine is 13.24 W.

A ball of mass 0.075 kg is fired horizontally into a ballistic pendulum. The pendulum mass is 0.350 kg. The ball is caught in th
Tatiana [17]
1) In the initial situation, the total mechanical energy of the system is given only by the kinetic energy of the ball that is moving with speed v:
E_i =K= \frac{1}{2}m_b v^2
where m_b = 0.075 kg is the mass of the ball.

In the final situation, where the system (ball+pendulum) rises a vertical distance of h=0.145 m, the system is stationary (v=0) so the total mechanical energy of the system is the gravitational potential energy:
E_f = U = (m_b+m_p)gh
where m_p = 0.350 kg is the mass of the pendulum.

For the law of conservation of energy, E_i=E_f , so we can find the initial speed v of the ball:
\frac{1}{2}m_bv^2 = (m_b+m_p)gh
v= \sqrt{ 2 \frac{m_b+m_p}{m_b}gh } =4.0 m/s

2) The kinetic energy lost in the collision is the initial kinetic energy of the ball:
K= \frac{1}{2}m_bv^2= \frac{1}{2}(0.075 kg)(4.0 m/s)^2=0.6 J
