ll and roll to the bottom without slipping. Part A Which of the following statements about these spheres are true?
A. Both spheres reach the bottom at the same time.
B. The heavier sphere reaches the bottom ahead of the lighter one.

Answer:

options A and C

Explanation:

Since, the spheres are of same size and rotational speed of the sphere are not dependent on their masses. So, both the sphere will reach the bottom of the at the same time with the same speed. But their kinetic energies are different.

So, options A and C are correct.

A 1 036-kg satellite orbits the Earth at a constant altitude of 98-km. (a) How much energy must be added to the system to move t
Veronika [31]

Answer:

a) The Energy added should be 484.438 MJ

b) The  Kinetic Energy change is -484.438 MJ

c) The Potential Energy change is 968.907 MJ

Explanation:

Let 'm' be the mass of the satellite , 'M'(6×10^{24} be the mass of earth , 'R'(6400 Km) be the radius of the earth , 'h' be the altitude of the satellite and 'G' (6.67×10^{-11} N/m) be the universal constant of gravitation.

We know that the orbital velocity(v) for a satellite -

v=\sqrt{\frac{Gmm}{R+h} }         [(R+h) is the distance of the satellite   from the center of the earth ]

Total Energy(E) = Kinetic Energy(KE) + Potential Energy(PE)

For initial conditions ,

h = h_{i} = 98 km = 98000 m

∴Initial Energy (E_{i})  = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} + \frac{-GMm}{(R+h_{i} )}

Substituting v=\sqrt{\frac{GMm}{R+h_{i} } } in the above equation and simplifying we get,

E_{i} = \frac{-GMm}{2(R+h_{i}) }

Similarly for final condition,

h=h_{f} = 198km = 198000 m

∴Final Energy(E_{f}) = \frac{-GMm}{2(R+h_{f}) }

a) The energy that should be added should be the difference in the energy of initial and final states -

∴ ΔE = E_{f} - E_{i}

        = \frac{GMm}{2}(\frac{1}{R+h_{i} } - \frac{1}{R+h_{f} })

Substituting ,

M = 6 × 10^{24} kg

m = 1036 kg

G = 6.67 × 10^{-11}

R = 6400000 m

h_{i} = 98000 m

h_{f} = 198000 m

We get ,

ΔE = 484.438 MJ

b) Change in Kinetic Energy (ΔKE) = \frac{1}{2}m[v_{f} ^{2} - v_{i} ^{2}]

                                                          = \frac{GMm}{2}[\frac{1} {R+h_{f} } - \frac{1} {R+h_{i} }]

                                                          = -ΔE                                                            

                                                          = - 484.438 MJ

c)  Change in Potential Energy (ΔPE) = GMm[\frac{1}{R+h_{i} } - \frac{1}{R+h_{f} }]

                                                             = 2ΔE

                                                             = 968.907 MJ

A 1000-kg car is moving at 30 m/s around a horizontal unbanked curve whose diameter is 0.20 km. What is the magnitude of the fri
omeli [17]

Answer:

4500 N

Explanation:

When a body is moving in a circular motion it will feel an acceleration directed towards the center of the circle, this acceleration is:

a = v^2/r

where v is the velocity of the body and r is the radius of the circumference:

Therefore, a body with mass m, will feel a force f:

f = m v^2/r

Therefore we need another force to keep the body(car) from sliding, this will be given by friction, remember that friction force is given a the normal times a constant of friction mu, that is:

fs = μN = μmg

The car will not slide if     f = fs,   i.e.

fs = μmg =  m v^2/r

That is, the magnitude of the friction force must be (at least) equal to the force due to the centripetal acceleration

fs = (1000 kg)  * (30m/s)^2 / (200 m) = 4500 N

A person sitting on a pier observes incoming waves that have a sinusoidal form with a distance of 2.5 m between the crests. Of a
Doss [256]

Answer:

Part(a): The frequency is \bf{0.2~Hz}.

Part(b): The speed of the wave is \bf{0.5~m/s}.

Explanation:

Given:

The distance between the crests of the wave, d = 2.5~m.

The time required for the wave to laps against the pier, t = 5.0~s

The distance between any two crests of a wave is known as the wavelength of the wave. So the wavelength of the wave is \lambda = 2.5~m.

Also, the time required for the wave for each laps is the time period of oscillation and it is given by T = 5.0~s.

Part(a):

The relation between the frequency and time period is given by

\nu = \dfrac{1}{T}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(1)

Substituting the value of T in equation (1), we have

\nu &=& \dfrac{1}{5.0~s}\\~~~&=& 0.2~Hz

Part(b):

The relation between the velocity of a wave to its frequency is given by

v = \nu \lambda~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(2)

Substituting the value of \nu and \lambda in equation (2), we have

v &=& (0.2~Hz)(2.5~m)\\~~~&=& 0.5~m/s
