Two books are located 1 m above the surface of the Earth. The first has a mass of 2 kg; the second has a mass of 1 kg. Which sta

tement about the pull of Earth's gravity is true?
A. The force of Earth's gravity on the 1-kg book is stronger than the force of Earth's gravity on the 2-kg book.
B. The force of Earth's gravity on the 2-kg book is stronger than the force of Earth's gravity on the 1-kg book.
C. The force of Earth's gravity is the same on both books, because when they're dropped, they'll both accelerate at 9.8 m/s2.
D. The force of Earth's gravity is the same on both books, because the two books are both 1.0 m above the ground.

When the cylinder is displaced slightly along its vertical axis it will oscillate about its equilibrium position with a frequenc
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

w = √[g /L (½ r²/L2 + 2/3 ) ]

When the mass of the cylinder changes if its external dimensions do not change the angular velocity DOES NOT CHANGE

Explanation:

We can simulate this system as a physical pendulum, which is a pendulum with a distributed mass, in this case the angular velocity is

          w² = mg d / I

In this case, the distance d to the pivot point of half the length (L) of the cylinder, which we consider long and narrow

         d = L / 2

The moment of inertia of a cylinder with respect to an axis at the end we can use the parallel axes theorem, it is approximately equal to that of a long bar plus the moment of inertia of the center of mass of the cylinder, this is tabulated

        I = ¼ m r2 + ⅓ m L2

        I = m (¼ r2 + ⅓ L2)

now let's use the concept of density to calculate the mass of the system

        ρ = m / V

        m = ρ V

the volume of a cylinder is

         V = π r² L

          m =  ρ π r² L

let's substitute

        w² = m g (L / 2) / m (¼ r² + ⅓ L²)

        w² = g L / (½ r² + 2/3 L²)

        L >> r

         w = √[g /L (½ r²/L2 + 2/3 ) ]

When the mass of the cylinder changes if its external dimensions do not change the angular velocity DOES NOT CHANGE

An example of a Destructive force is the formation of mountains True or False?
nata0808 [166]
Hey there!

<span>An example of a Destructive force is the formation of mountains.

This statement is false, an example of a destructive force would not be the formation of mountains.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!

A pump is used to lift 100 KG of water from a wel 60 m deep,in 20 S If force of gravity on 1 KG is 10 N,find
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Explanation:

Given,

  • m = 100 kg
  • g = 10 N/kg¹
  • h = 60 m
  • t = 20 s

To Find:

a) Work done by the pump

b) Potential energy stored in the water

c)Power spent by the pump

d)Power rating of the pump.

Solution:

  • a) Work done by the pump

We know that,

\rm \: Work  \: done = Force * Distance  \: moved

  • f = 100 kg * 10N/kg
  • d = 60 m

\rm \: Work\; Done =(100 \: kg \times  \cfrac{10N}{kg} ) \times 60 \: m

\rm \: Work\; Done =1000 \times 60 \: joule

\boxed{\rm \: Work\; Done =60000 \: joule}

[The unit'll be joule since N×M = J]

  • b) Potential energy stored in the water

\rm \: P.E = m \cdot g \cdot  h

  • m = 100 kg
  • g = 10N/kg
  • h = 60

\rm \: P.E =100 \:kg \:  \times  \cfrac{10 \: N}{kg}  \times 60

\boxed{\rm \: P.E =60000  \: joule}

  • same condition here as well, N×M = J
  • c) Power of the Pump

\rm \: P = W/T

  • where P = Power; W = Work done & T = Time taken
  • As we got the value of work done on question (a),& ATQ time taken is 20 S.

\rm \: P =  \cfrac{60000 \: joule}{20 \: seconds}  =\boxed{\rm { 3000 \: Watts }}\: or \: \boxed{\rm 3 \: kW}

  • d) Power rating of the pump = 3 kW

Assumption: The pump is 100% efficient & works well.
