A uniform solid disk of mass 5.00 kg and diameter 47.0 cm starts from rest and rolls without slipping down a 40.0 ∘ incline that

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The speed it reaches the bottom is

$v=6.51m/s$

Explanation:

Given: $m=5.0kg$ , $r=47cm\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.47m$

Using the conservation of energy theorem

$U_i=K_E+K_{ER}$

$m*g*h=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2+\frac{1}{2}*I*w^2$

$v=r*w$ , $I=\frac{1}{2}*m*r^2$

$m*g*h=\frac{1}{2}*m*(r*w)^2 +\frac{1}{2}*[\frac{1}{2} *m*r^2]*w^2$

$m*g*h=\frac{3}{4}*m*r^2*w^2$

$g*h=\frac{3}{4}*r^2*w^2$

Solve to w'

$w^2=\frac{4*g*h}{3*r^2}$

$h=x*sin(30)=6.5m*sin(30)=3.25m$

$w=\sqrt{\frac{4*9.8m/s^2*3.25m}{3*(0.235m)^2}}$

$w=27.74rad/s$

$v=27.74rad/s*0.235m=6.51m/s$

A golf ball is rolling in the grass. What must happen to stop the ball from continuing to roll?

slamgirl [31]

The net force must be zero

This is in accordance to Newton's first law, which states that any object in motion will remain in motion and any object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. An unbalanced force is one where the net force is not zero. If no unbalanced force is applied to a moving object, it will keep moving forever. The reason that we do not observe this in our daily lives is due to friction acting as the unbalanced force.

If the distance from a light source triples, how does light intensity change? The intensity will be 3x greater. The intensity wi

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The intensity will be 1/9 as much.

Explanation:

The intensity of the light or any source is inversely related to the square of the distance.

$I\alpha \frac{1}{r^{2} }$

Now according to the question the distance is increased by three times than,

$\frac{I_{2} }{I_{1} }=\frac{r_{1}^{2} }{r_{2}^{2} }$

Therefore,

$\frac{I_{2} }{I_{1} }=\frac{r_{1}^{2} }{(3r_{1})^{2} }\\\frac{I_{2} }{I_{1} }=\frac{1}{9} \\{I_{2}=\frac{1}{9}{I_{1} }$

Therefore the intensity will become 1/9 times to the initial intensity.

A spring on a horizontal surface can be stretched and held 0.5 m from its equilibrium position with a force of 60 N. a. How much

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

a)1815Joules b) 185Joules

Explanation:

Hooke's law states that the extension of a material is directly proportional to the applied force provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded. Mathematically;

F = ke where;

F is the applied force

k is the elastic constant

e is the extension of the material

From the formula, k = F/e

F1/e1 = F2/e2

If a force of 60N causes an extension of 0.5m of the string from its equilibrium position, the elastic constant of the spring will be ;

k = 60/0.5

k = 120N/m

a) To get the work done in stretching the spring 5.5m from its position,

Work done by the spring = 1/2ke²

Given k = 120N/m, e = 5.5m

Work done = 1/2×120×5.5²

Work done = 60× 5.5²

Work done = 1815Joules

b) work done in compressing the spring 1.5m from its equilibrium position will be gotten using the same formula;

Work done = 1/2ke²

Work done =1/2× 120×1.5²

Works done = 60×1.5²

Work done = 135Joules
