shows a conical pendulum, in which the bob (the small object at the lower end of the cord) moves in a horizontal circle at const

ant speed. (The cord sweeps out a cone as the bob rotates.) The bob has a mass of 0.040 kg, the string has length L = 0.90 m and negligible mass, and the bob follows a circular path of circumference 0.94 m. What are (a) the tension in the string and (b) the period of the motion?

Answer:

a) T=0.40 N

b) T=1.9 s

Explanation:

Let's find the radius of the circumference first. We know that bob follows a circular path of circumference 0.94 m, it means that the perimeter is 0.94 m.

The perimeter of a circunference is:

P=2\pi r=0.94

r=\frac{0.94}{2\pi}=0.15 m

Now, we need to find the angle of the pendulum from vertical.

tan(\alpha)=\frac{r}{L}=\frac{0.15}{0.90}=0.17

\alpha=9.44 ^{\circ}

Let's apply Newton's second law to find the tension.

\sum F=ma_{c}=m\omega^{2}r

We use centripetal acceleration here, because we have a circular motion.

The vertical equation of motion will be:

Tcos(\alpha)=mg (1)

The horizontal equation of motion will be:

Tsin(\alpha)=m\omega^{2}r (2)

a) We can find T usinf the equation (1):

T=\frac {mg}{cos(\alpha)}=\frac{0.04*9.81}{cos(9.44)}=0.40 N

We can find the angular velocity (ω) from the equation (2):

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{Tsin(\alpha)}{mr}}=3.31 rad/s

b) We know that the period is T=2π/ω, therefore:

T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2\pi}{3.31}=1.9 s

I hope it helps you!

A 65.0-kg runner has a speed of 5.20 m/s at one instant dur- ing a long-distance event. (a) What is the runner’s kinetic energy
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

a)KE=878.8 J

b)W=2636.4 J      

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m = 65 kg

Initial speed ,u = 5.2 m/s

a)

We know that kinetic energy KE is given as follows

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2

m=mass

u=velocity

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 65\times 5.2^2\ J

KE=878.8 J

b)

We know that

Work done by all forces = Change in the kinetic energy

The final velocity , v= 2 u = 2 x 5.2 m/s

v= 10.4 m/s

W=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2-\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

W=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 65\times 10.4^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 65\times 5.2^2\ J

W=2636.4 J

a)KE=878.8 J

b)W=2636.4 J

A small but measurable current of 5.8 × 10-10 A exists in a copper wire whose diameter is 3.0 mm. The number of charge carriers
swat32

Answer:

a) The current density ,J = 2.05×10^-5

b) The drift velocity Vd= 1.51×10^-15

Explanation:

The equation for the current density and drift velocity is given by:

J = i/A = (ne)×Vd

Where i= current

A = Are

Vd = drift velocity

e = charge ,q= 1.602 ×10^-19C

n = volume

Given: i = 5.8×10^-10A

Raduis,r = 3mm= 3.0×10^-3m

n = 8.49×10^28m^3

a) Current density, J =( 5.8×10^-10)/[3.142(3.0×10^-3)^2]

J = (5.8×10^-10) /(2.83×10^-5)

J = 2.05 ×10^-5

b) Drift velocity, Vd = J/ (ne)

Vd = (2.05×10^-5)/ (8.49×10^28)(1.602×10^-19)

Vd = (2.05×10^-5)/(1.36 ×10^10)

Vd = 1.51× 10^-5

1. What is wave motion
nadya68 [22]
A wave is basically propagation of disturbances—that is, deviations from a state of rest or equilibrium—from place to place in a regular and organized way. Most familiar are surface waves on water, but both sound and light travel as wavelike disturbances, and the motion of all subatomic particles exhibits wavelike properties.
