An Atwood's machine consists of two different masses, both hanging vertically and connected by an ideal string which passes over

a pulley. Let the masses be M1 and M2 and M2 = 2M1. Initially, M1 is held fixed a distance y below M2. Find the speed of the blocks when they are the same elevation (that is, the same horizontal position, by then each block has moved y/2).

Answer:

V₁ = √ (gy / 3)

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the concepts of mechanical energy, for which we define energy n the initial point and the point of average height and / 2

Starting point

    Em₀ = U₁ + U₂

    Em₀ = m₁ g y₁ + m₂ g y₂

Let's place the reference system at the point where the mass m1 is

     y₁ = 0

    y₂ = y

    Em₀ = m₂ g y = 2 m₁ g y

End point, at height yf = y / 2

    E_{mf} = K₁ + U₁ + K₂ + U₂

    E_{mf} = ½ m₁ v₁² + ½ m₂ v₂² + m₁ g y_{f} + m₂ g y_{f}

Since the masses are joined by a rope, they must have the same speed

     E_{mf} = ½ (m₁ + m₂) v₁² + (m₁ + m₂) g y_{f}

   E_{mf}= ½ (m₁ + 2m₁) v₁² + (m₁ + 2m₁) g y_{f}

How energy is conserved

   Em₀ =  E_{mf}

   2 m₁ g y = ½ (m₁ + 2m₁) v₁² + (m₁ + 2m₁) g y_{f}

   2 m₁ g y = ½ (3m₁) v₁² + (3m₁) g y / 2

   3/2 v₁² = 2 g y -3/2 g y

   3/2 v₁² = ½ g y

   V₁ = √ (gy / 3)

A Cessna aircraft has a lift off speed of 147 km/h. What minimum constant acceleration does this require if the aircraft is to b
netineya [11]

Answer:

The acceleration is  a =51945 \ km/h^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The lift up speed is  v  = 147 \  km/h

    The distance covered for the take off run is s =  208 m = 0.208 \ km

Generally from kinematic equation we have that

      v^2 = u^2 + 2as

Here u is the initial  speed of the aircraft with value 0 m/ s give that the aircraft started from rest

So  

    147^2 = 0^2 + 2* a* 0.208

=>  a =51945 \ km/h^2

Physics question!!!
lesantik [10]

Answer:

4.5 metres

Explanation:

Using Hooke's Law (F\propto x)

We need to find the spring constant of the bungee cord with the given extension and force, we can do this by substituting in known values.

600=3k\\k=200

Now we have found the spring constant of the bungee cord, we can substitute it in for the a different force. As the cord is the same we can use the same spring constant.

900=200x\\x=4.5

Three people pull simultaneously on a stubborn donkey. jack pulls eastward with a force of 92.5 n, jill pulls with 89.9 n in the
alekssr [168]
Jack------------ force of 92.5 n   eastward-------Fjack(X)=92.5 n   Fjack(Y)=0

<span>jill ------------------------------- force of 89.9 n   northeast
Fjill(X)=cos45*89.9=63.57 n
</span>Fjill(Y)=sin45*89.9=63.57 n<span>

</span>jane -----------------------------force of 163 n   southeast
Fjane(X)=cos45*163=115.26 n
Fjane(X)=-sin45*163=-115.26 n

Ftotal (X)=92.5+63.57+115.26=271.33 n
Ftotal (Y)=0+63.57-115.26=-51.69 n

Fotal=((271.33)^2+(-115.26)^2) ^0.5=294.80 n southeast

the magnitude of the net force the people exert on the donkey. is 294.80 n southeast
