Answer:
a) v = 88.54 m/s
b) vf = 26.4 m/s
Explanation:
Given that;
m = 1400.0 kg
a)
by using the energy conservation
loss in potential energy is equal to gain in kinetic energy
mg × ( 3200-2800) = 1/2 ×m×v²
so
1400 × 9.8 × 400 = 0.5 × 1400 × v²
5488000 = 700v²
v² = 5488000 / 700
v² = 7840
v = √7840
v = 88.54 m/s
b)
Work done by all forces is equal to change in KE
W_gravity + W_non - conservative = 1/2×m×(vf² - vi²)
we substitute
1400 × 9.8 × ( 3200-2800) - (5 × 10⁶) = 1/2 × 1400 × (vf² -0 )
488000 = 700 vf²
vf² = 488000 / 700
vf² = 697.1428
vf = √697.1428
vf = 26.4 m/s
We use the following expression
T = 2*pi *sqrt(l/g)
Where T is the period of the pendulum
l is the length of the pendulum
and g the acceleration of gravity
We solve for l
l = [T/2*pi]² *g = [30s/2*pi]²* 9.8 [m/s²] = 223.413 m
The tower would need to be at least 223.413 m high
All, or almost all, warm-blooded creatures get rid of excess heat by evaporating moisture from their bodies. It's a great system, because evaporation takes a lot of heat. That's the reason people perspire when we're active and build up a lot of heat inside. The evaporation of sweat from our skin carries away heat with it.
Dogs do not sweat on their skin. The only place they can evaporate moisture is through their mouth. Panting speeds up the evaporation by blowing air across the moisture.
