An escalator is 17.4 m long. If a person stands on the escalator, it takes 47.6 s to ride from the bottom to the top. If a perso

n walks up the moving escalator with a speed of 0.541 m/s relative to the escalator, how long does it take the person to get to the top?

Answer:

19.1 secs

Explanation:

The first step is to calculate the velocity

= 17.4/47.6

= 0.37 m/s

Therefore the time taken for the person to reach the top can be calculated as follows

= 17.4/(0.37+0.541)

= 17.4 / 0.911

= 19.1 secs

Hence the time taken is 19.1 secs

: A honeybucket man is carrying his load. He has a pole 2 m long with a bucket hanging from each end. The buckets have a mass of
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the principle of moment, assuming the rod is uniform rod of mass 1 kg

the center of mass of the rod will be at 1 m

assuming the system is in equilibrium,

clockwise moment = anticlockwise moment

let the distance of the man shoulder be x from the center of gravity and also is the pivot point

total mass of bucket + mass of honey = 2kg + 3 kg =  5 kg for rear bucket and

2kg + 5 kg = 7 kg for front bucket

( 5kg × ( 1+x)) + ( 1 kg × x) = 7 kg × ( 1 - x)

5 + 5 x + x = 7 - 7x

5 + 6x = 7 - 7x

6x + 7x = 7 - 5

13x = 2

x = 2 / 13 = 0.154 m

the honeybucket man's shoulder is 0.154 m from the center of the pole ( forward ).

3. Si usted duplicara la amplitud de un M.A.S. ¿cómo cambiaría la frecuencia, velocidad máxima, la aceleración máxima y la energ
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

la frecuencia = ω/2π, nada cambio

v(max) = ωA → ω2Α = 2ωA  duplicara velocidad máxima

a(max) = ω²Α → ω²2Α = 2ω²Α duplicara la aceleración máxima

la energía total ½kA² → ½k(2Α)² = 4(½kA²) cuatro veces la energía
