Answer:

v = 2,425 m / s

Explanation:

A simple pendulum has anergy stored at the highest point of the path and this energy is conserved throughout the movement.

highest point

           Em₀ = U = m g y

lowest point

          Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

         Em₀ = Em_{f}

        mg y = ½ m v²

        v = √ 2gy

let's calculate

        v = √ (2 9.8 0.3)

        v = 2,425 m / s

A small sphere is at rest at the top of a frictionless semicylindrical surface. The sphere is given a slight nudge to the right
V125BC [204]

Answer:

vi = 4.77 ft/s

Explanation:

Given:

- The radius of the surface R = 1.45 ft

- The Angle at which the the sphere leaves

- Initial velocity vi

- Final velocity vf

Find:

Determine the sphere's initial speed.

Solution:

- Newton's second law of motion in centripetal direction is given as:

                         m*g*cos(θ) - N = m*v^2 / R

Where, m: mass of sphere

             g: Gravitational Acceleration

             θ: Angle with the vertical

             N: Normal contact force.

- The sphere leaves surface at θ = 34°. The Normal contact is N = 0. Then we have:

                         m*g*cos(θ) - 0 = m*vf^2 / R

                         g*cos(θ) = vf^2 / R    

                         vf^2 = R*g*cos(θ)

                         vf^2 = 1.45*32.2*cos(34)

                        vf^2 = 38.708 ft/s

- Using conservation of energy for initial release point and point where sphere leaves cylinder:

                          ΔK.E = ΔP.E

                          0.5*m* ( vf^2 - vi^2 ) = m*g*(R - R*cos(θ))

                          ( vf^2 - vi^2 ) = 2*g*R*( 1 - cos(θ))

                          vi^2 =  vf^2 - 2*g*R*( 1 - cos(θ))

                          vi^2 = 38.708 - 2*32.2*1.45*(1-cos(34))

                          vi^2 = 22.744

                           vi = 4.77 ft/s

What is the difference between prejudice and discrimination?
adoni [48]

Prejudice has to do with the inflexible and irrational attitudes and opinions held by members of one group about another, while discrimination refers to behaviors directed against another group. Being prejudiced usually means having preconceived beliefs about groups of people or cultural practices.

Consider three force vectors Fi with magni- tude 53 N and direction 116º, F2 with mag- nitude 57 N and direction 217°, and F3 wi
Flauer [41]

Answer:

a. Fnet =37.67N

b. The direction = 133.4 from the x axis counter clockwise.

c. Option 2

Explanation:

Given that F1 is 53N at 116°, then it will be at a direction of 116-90=26° in the second quadrant.

Given that F2 is 57N at 116°, then it will be at a direction of 217-180=37° in the third quadrant..

Given that F1 is 71N at 20°, then it is in the first quadrant.

a. Fnet= F1+F2+F3

Fnet= -F1sin26i+F2cos26j-F2cos37i-F2sin37j+F3cos20i+F3sin20j

Fnet= 53sin26i+53cos26j-57cos37i-57sin37j+71cos20i+71sin20j

Resolving the vectors into x and y components.

Fnet= -2.04i+37.62j

Magnitude of the vector

Fnet= √((-2.04)^2+(37.62)^2)

Fnet= 37.67N

Fnet is approximately 38N.

b. Direction of the Fnet.

Angle=arctan(y/x)

Angle=arctan(-37.61/2.04)

Angle= -43.37°

The angle is in the negative x axis and positive y axis.

Then the direction becomes 180-43.37

Therefore, the direction of the net force is 133.37°.

c. The instantaneous velocity of a body is always in the direction of the net force at that instant. Option 2 is correct.

Fnet=ma

Fnet= mv/t

So the velocity is in the direction of the Fnet.

A charged object traveling 7 m in a uniform electric field of 5 N/C experiences a 4 J increase in Kinetic Energy.
Travka [436]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the principles of conservation of Energy in order to obtain the final work done.

The electric field in terms of the Force can be expressed as

E = \frac{F}{q} \rightarrow F=Eq

Where,

F = Force

E= Electric Field

q = Charge

Puesto que el trabajo realizado es equivalente al cambio en la energía cinetica entonces tenemos que

KE = W

KE = F*d

In the First Case,

4 = (qE)d\\q = \frac{4}{Ed}\\q = \frac{4}{5*7}\\q = 0.1142C

In Second Case,

KE = q E'd

KE = (0.1142)(40)(7)

KE = 31.976J

The total energy change would be subject to,

\Delta KE = 31.976-4

\Delta KE = 27.976J

Therefore the Kinetic Energy change of the charged object is 27.976J
