A metal block of mass 235 g rests at a point 2.8 m from the center of a horizontal rotating wooden platform. The coefficient of

static friction between the block and the platform is 0.437. The platform initially rotates very slowly but the rotation rate is gradually increasing. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . At what minimum angular velocity of the platform would the block slide away? Answer in units of rad/s.

Answer:

ω=1.23 rad/sec

Explanation:

The block will start sliding when the centrifugal force exceeds the force of friction

We have Force of friction and centrifugal force are as under

F_{f}=\mu mg...........(i)\\\\F_{c.f}=m\omega ^{2}r................(ii)

Thus equating the 2 forces to get the minimum angular velocity we have

\fr\mu mg= m\omega^{2}r\\\\\therefore \omega =(\frac{\mu g}{r})^{1/2}

Applying values we get

ω=1.23 rad/sec

A block of mass m rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A cord attached to the block passes over a pulley whose radius is
ra1l [238]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the tension in the cord be T₁ and T₂  .

for motion of block placed on horizontal table

T₁ = m a  , a is acceleration of the whole system .

for motion of hanging bucket of mass m

mg - T₂ = ma

adding the two equation

mg + T₁- T₂ = 2ma

for rotational motion of the pulley

torque = moment of inertia x angular acceleration

(T₂ - T₁) R = I x α , I is moment of inertia of pulley , α is angular acceleration .

(mg - 2ma ) R = I x α

(mg - 2ma ) R = I x a / R

(mg - 2ma ) R² = I x a

mgR² =  2ma R² + I x a

a = mgR² / (2m R² + I )

Since body moves by distance d in time T

d = 1/2 a T²

a = 2d / T²

mgR² / (2m R² + I ) = 2d / T²

mgR²T² = 2d x (2m R² + I )

mgR²T² -  4dm R² =  2dI

m R² ( gT² - 4d ) = 2dI

I =  m R² ( gT² - 4d ) ] / 2d .

The graph is tied to the reading
AleksandrR [38]
I. Positive acceleration increases velocity. Negative acceleration decreases velocity. runner A sped up until the finish line and then slowed to a stop.

ii. Zero a acceleration implies a constant, unchanging velocity not a zero velocity. runner B achieved some velocity prior to 8s and is moving and must slow down to reach a stop.

iii. None. No aspects of this reasoning are correct. Everything she says is wrong. See iv for what/why.

iv. The sign on acceleration denotes the direction of *change in velocity* not change in direction. The sign on velocity can denote change in direction but only “forward” or “reverse” along a particular path. Cardinal direction is not indicated, generally, by the sign on velocity. It may correspond to North/South situationally but it is not an built-in feature of velocity and its sign. For example, if you are traveling with positive velocity and turn left to continue your journey you still have a positive velocity in the new direction. In fact, if you turn left again, traveling in the opposite direction as the one you started with your velocity would still be positive… in the new direction. The velocity relative to original direction could be said to be negative but that would be a confusing way to describe a journey. Maybe if you stopped the vehicle and moved in reverse, you could meaningfully say velocity was negative.

Emma is riding on a train. The train is moving at 50 m/s. Emma walks down the aisle at 1 m/s relative to the train in the same d
anzhelika [568]

low speed means non relativistic.

the velocities relative to an observer outside the train are added.

51 m/s.

Were ita light wave, rather than Emma, the speed wold not depend on the speed of the train. Though that may sound surprising, I think it's true. Special relativity says more about this.

Special relativity "shows up" when the speeds get very high indeed.
