A 2.10 kg textbook rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A cord attached to the book passes over a pulley whose diameter

is 0.170 m, to a hanging book with mass 3.00 kg. The system is released from rest, and the books are observed to move 1.20 m in 0.900 s.
(a) What is the tension in each part of the cord?
(b) What is the moment of inertia of the pulley about its rotation axis?

Answer:

(A) 6.2 N and 20.52 N

(B) I = 0.035 kg m^{2}

Explanation:

mass of first book (M1) = 2.1

mass of second book (M2) = 3 kg

diameter of pulley = 0.17 m

distance (s) = 1.2 m

time = 0.9 secs

(A) what is the tension in each part of the cord

    we first have to get the acceleration of the first  book

 s = ut + 0.5 at^{2}

 since the books are initially at rest u = 0

s = 0.5 at^{2}

1.2 = 0.5 x a x 0.9^{2}

a = 2.96 m/s^[2}

  • Tension at T1 = M1 x A1

       T1 = 2.1 x 2.96 = 6.2 N

  • Tension at T2 = m x ( g - a )

          (g-a) is the net acceleration of the first book

           T2 = 3 x ( 9.8 - 2.96 ) = 20.52 N

(B) What is the moment of inertia of the pulley?

     taking clockwise rotation of the pulley to be negative while

     anticlockwise to be positive, we can see from the diagram that T1      

     causes a clockwise rotation while T2 produces an anticlockwise rotation

       ( T2 - T1 )r = I∝

         where ∝ is the angular acceleration of the pulley relative to its radial  

         acceleration, ∝ = \frac{a}{r}

          ( T2 - T1 )r = I\frac{a}{r}

          I = \frac{(T2 - T1)r^{2}}{a}

          I = \frac{(20.52 - 6.2)0.085^{2}}{2.96}

         I = 0.035 kg m^{2}

A storm is moving at 15 km/hr what to do to determine its velocity
WINSTONCH [101]
Check the current weather map for 2 different times, and see where the center of the storm is. That tells you what direction it's moving. With its speed and direction, you have its velocity.

A floating ice block is pushed through a displacement d = (23 m) i - (9 m) j along a straight embankment by rushing water, which
Sav [38]

Answer:

Work = 5941 J

Explanation:

As we know that work done is given by the equation

W = F. d

here we know that

F  = (200 N)\hat i - (149 N) \hat j

also we have

d = (23m) \hat i - (9 m)\hat j

now from above formula we have

W = (200 N\hat i - 149 N \hat j).(23 m\hat i - 9m \hat j)

W = 5941 J
