Answer:

\tau=(-32k)\ N-m

\theta=116.55^{\circ}

Explanation:

Given that.

Force acting on the particle, F=(-6i + 2.0j)\ N

Position of the particle, r=(4i+4j)\ m

To find,

(a) Torque on the particle about the origin.

(b) The angle between the directions of r and F

Solution,

(a) Torque acting on the particle is a scalar quantity. It is given by the cross product of force and position. It is given by :

\tau=F\times r

\tau=(-6i + 2.0j)\times (4i+4j)

\tau=\begin{pmatrix}0&0&-32\end{pmatrix}

\tau=(-32k)\ N-m

So, the torque on the particle about the origin is (32 N-m).

(b) Magnitude of r, |r|=\sqrt{4^2+4^2}=5.65\ m

Magnitude of F, |F|=\sqrt{(-6)^2+2^2}=6.324\ m

Using dot product formula,

F{\circ}\ r=|F|.|r|\ cos\theta

cos\theta=\dfrac{F{\circ} r}{|F|.|r|}

cos\theta=\dfrac{-24+8}{6.324\times 5.65}

\theta=116.55^{\circ}

Therefore, this is the required solution.

Answer:

(a) \overrightarrow{\tau }=32\widehat{K}  Nm

(b)  116.6°

Explanation:

\overrightarrow{F}=-6\widehat{i}+2\widehat{j}

\overrightarrow{r}=4\widehat{i}+4\widehat{j}

(a) Torque is defined as

\overrightarrow{\tau }=\overrightarrow{r}\times \overrightarrow{F}

\overrightarrow{\tau }=\left (4\widehat{i}+4\widehat{j}  \right )\times \left (-6\widehat{i}+2\widehat{j}  \right )

\overrightarrow{\tau }=32\widehat{K}  Nm

(b) Let θ be the angle between the r and F.

magnitude of r = \sqrt{4^{2}+4^{2}}=\sqrt{32}

magnitude of F = \sqrt{6^{2}+2^{2}}=\sqrt{40}

Cos\theta =\frac{\overrightarrow{r}.\overrightarrow{F}}{rF}

Cos\theta =\frac{-24+8}{\sqrt{32\times40}}

θ = 116.6°

From the edge of a cliff, a 0.41 kg projectile is launched with an initial kinetic energy of 1430 J. The projectile's maximum up
NemiM [27]

Answer:

v₀ₓ = 63.5 m/s

v₀y = 54.2 m/s

Explanation:

First we find the net launch velocity of projectile. For that purpose, we use the formula of kinetic energy:

K.E = (0.5)(mv₀²)

where,

K.E = initial kinetic energy of projectile = 1430 J

m = mass of projectile = 0.41 kg

v₀ = launch velocity of projectile = ?

Therefore,

1430 J = (0.5)(0.41)v₀²

v₀ = √(6975.6 m²/s²)

v₀ = 83.5 m/s

Now, we find the launching angle, by using formula for maximum height of projectile:

h = v₀² Sin²θ/2g

where,

h = height of projectile = 150 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

θ = launch angle

Therefore,

150 m = (83.5 m/s)²Sin²θ/(2)(9.8 m/s²)

Sin θ = √(0.4216)

θ = Sin⁻¹ (0.6493)

θ = 40.5°

Now, we find the components of launch velocity:

x- component = v₀ₓ = v₀Cosθ  = (83.5 m/s) Cos(40.5°)

<u>v₀ₓ = 63.5 m/s</u>

y- component = v₀y = v₀Sinθ  = (83.5 m/s) Sin(40.5°)

<u>v₀y = 54.2 m/s</u>

A cyclist traveling at constant speed of 12m/s when he passes a stationary bus.The bus starts moving just as the cyclist passes
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

A.) 8 seconds

B.) 16 seconds

C.) 48 m

Explanation:

Given that a cyclist traveling at constant speed of 12 m/s

and the bus accelerates uniformly at 1.5ms²

A.) The bus has the following parameters

Acceleration a = 1.5 m/s^2

Initial velocity U = 0. Since the bus is starting from rest.

Final velocity V = 12 m/s

Use equation one of linear motion.

V = U + at

Substitute V, U and a into the formula

12 = 0 + 1.5t

1.5t = 12

t = 12/1.5

t = 8 seconds

Therefore, the bus reach the same speed as the cyclist at 8 seconds.

B.) For the cyclist moving at constant speed, acceleration a = 0. Using second equation of motion

h = Ut + 1/2at^2

Since a = 0, the equation is reduced to:

h = Ut.

Also, for the bus,

h = Ut + 1/2at^2

Equate the two equations since the h is the same

Ut = Ut + 1/2at^2

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

12t = 0 + 1/2 × 1.5t^2

12t = 0.75t^2

0.75t = 12

t = 12/0.75

t = 16 seconds

Therefore, the bus takes 16 seconds to catch the cyclist

C.) Use third equation of linear motion.

V^2 = U^2 + 2as

Where s = distance

Substitute V, U and a into the formula

12^2 = 0 + 2 × 1.5 S

144 = 3S

S = 144/3

S = 48 m

Which statement best summarizes the central idea of “Applications of Newton’s Laws”?
Shkiper50 [21]

 

Newton's three forces, normal, tension and friction, are present in a surprising number of physical situations

Newton's Laws, that describe the relationship between an obejct and the forces acting upon it, apply in almost every physical situation, from quantum mechanics to electricity.

The correct answer is:

Newton’s laws can explain the forces that occur between objects every day
