A 38.2 kg wagon is towed up a hill inclined at 17.5 ◦ with respect to the horizontal. The tow rope is parallel to the incline an

d has a tension of 129 N in it. Assume that the wagon starts from rest at the bottom of the hill, and neglect friction. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . How fast is the wagon going after moving 85.4 m up the hill

Answer:

v = 8.57 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the wagon is pulled up by string system

So the net force on the wagon along the inclined is due to tension in the rope and component of weight along the inclined plane

So as per work energy theorem we know that

work done by tension force + work done by force of gravity = change in kinetic energy

$F_t . d - (mgsin\theta)(d) = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - 0$

so we have

$F_t = 129 N$

$\theta = 17.5^o$

m = 38.2 kg

d = 85.4 m

so now we have

$129(85.4) - (38.2)9.8sin17.5 (85.4) = \frac{1}{2}(38.2) v^2$

$v = 8.57 m/s$

On a certain planet, which is perfectly spherically symmetric, the free-fall acceleration has magnitude g = go at the north pole

ohaa [14]

The reason why there is a difference between free-fall acceleration is a centrifugal force.
I attached a diagram that shows how this force aligns with the force of gravity.
From the diagram we can see that:
$F=F_g-F_{cf}=mg'-mw^2r'cos(\alpha)\\ ma=mg'-mw^2r'cos(\alpha)\\ a=g'-w^2rcos^2(\alpha)\\$
Where g' is the free-fall acceleration when there is no centrifugal force, r is the radius of the planet, and w is angular frequency of planet's rotation. $\alpha$ is the latitude.
We can calculate g' and wr^2 from the given conditions in the problem.
$g(90)=g_0;\ g_0= g'-w^2rcos^2(90)\\
g_0=g'\\
g(0)=ag_0;\ ag_0=g_0-w^2rcos^2(0)\\
ag_0=g_0-w^2r\\
w^2r=g_0(a-1)
$
Our final equation is:
$g=g_0-g_0(a-1)cos^2(\alpha)$
Colatitude is:
$\alpha_c=90^\circ-\alpha$
The answer is:
$g=g_0-g_0(a-1)cos^2(90-9)=g_0-g_0(a-1)sin^2(9)$

A bowling ball has a mass of 6 kg. What happens to its momentum when its speed increases from 2m/s to 4 m/s?

Vitek1552 [10]

Here, Initial momentum = mu = 6*2 = 12 Kg m/s
Final momentum = mv = 6*4 = 24 Kg m/s

In short, Your Answer would be Option C

Hope this helps!

For a specific volume of 0.2 m3/kg, find the quality of steam if the absolute pressure is (a) 40 kPa and (b) 630 kPa. What is th

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

$x=0.0498$

$x'=0.659$

Explanation:

Specific Volume $V=0.2m_3/kg$

Absolute Pressure (a) $P_a= 40kpa$

Giving

$T_a=75.87$

$v_f=1.265*10^{-3}m^3/kg$

$v_g=3.993m^3/kg$

(b) $P_a= 630kpa$

Giving

$T_b=160.13C$

$v_f'=1.10282*10^{-3} m^3/kg$

$v_g'=0.30286 m^3/kg$

(a)

Generally the equation for quality of Steam X is mathematically given by

$x=\frac{v-v_f}{v_g-v_f}$

$x=\frac{0.2-1.0265*10^{-3}}{3.993-1.0265*10^{-3}}$

$x=0.0498$

(b)

Generally the equation for quality of Steam X is mathematically given by

$x'=\frac{v-v_f'}{v_g'-v_f'}$

$x'=\frac{0.2-1.10*10^{-3}}{3.30-1.1*10^{-3}}$

$x'=0.659$

In a series RLC ac circuit, a second resistor is connected in series with the resistor previously in the circuit. As a result of

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

* The first thing we observe is that the frequency response does not change

* The current that circulates in the circuit decreases due to the new resistance at the resonance point,

Z = R + R₂

Explanation:

The impedance of a series circuit is

Z₀² = R² + (X_L-X_C) ²

when we place another resistor in series the initial resistance impedance changes to

Z² = (R + R₂) ² + (X_L - X_C) ²

let's analyze this expression

* The first thing we observe is that the frequency response does not change

* The current that circulates in the circuit decreases due to the new resistance at the resonance point,

Z = R + R₂
