A book falls of the table and hits the floor. Is work done? Why?​

<u>Yes, work is done when a book falls of the table.</u>

This is because:

When the book falls, it's potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.   As it reaches the floor down, this kinetic energy is converted to heat energy and sound energy due to the impact.

When a force is imposed on an object to cause displacement of that object, work is done on that object. For a force to do work on an object, there should be a displacement and this force should cause the displacement. So here, since the book falls from the table and causes the displacement of the book from the table to the floor. It is said that work is done.

Work can be given by the formula:

W = F • d

where F is the force and d is the displacement.

A particle makes 800 revolution in 4 minutes of a circle of 5cm. Find
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

i) The period of the particle is 0.3 seconds

ii) The angular velocity is approximately 20.94 rad/s

iii) The linear velocity is approximately 1.047 m/s

iv) The centripetal acceleration is approximately 6.98 m/s²

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of revolution of the particle, n = 800 revolution

The time it takes the particle to make 800 revolutions = 4 minutes

The dimension of the circle = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Given that the dimension of the circle is the radius of the circle, we have;

i) The period of the particle, T = The time to complete one revolution

T = 1/(The number of revolutions per second)

∴ T = 1/(800 rev/(4 min × 60 s/min)) = 3/10 s

The period, T = 3/10 seconds = 0.3 seconds

ii) The angular velocity, ω = Angle covered/(Time)

800 revolutions in 4 minutes = Angle of (800 × 2·π) in 4 minutes

∴ ω = (800 × 2·π)/(4 × 60) = 20·π/3

The angular velocity, ω = 20·π/3 rad/s ≈ 20.94 rad/s

iii) The linear velocity, v = r × ω

∴ The linear velocity, v = 0.05 m × 20·π/3 rad/s = π/3 m/s ≈ 1.047 m/s

iv) The centripetal acceleration, a_c = v²/r

∴ The centripetal acceleration, a_c = (π/3)²/(0.05) = 20·π/9

The centripetal acceleration, a_c = 20·π/9 m/s² ≈ 6.98 m/s²

What happens when multiple forces act upon an object?
Bogdan [553]
The object will move if the forces are unbalanced.

Newtons second tells you that when a net force (the unbalanced force) is applied to and object it will produce an acceleration (movement) in direct proportion to the force and in inverse proportion to the mass of the object.
