A stunt cyclist rides on the interior of a cylinder 13 m in radius. The coefficient of static friction between the tires and the

wall is 0.67. Find the value of the minimum speed (in m/s) for the cyclist to perform the stunt. (Assume the axis of the cylinder is vertical, so that the cyclist always maintains the same height.)

Answer:

v=13.1m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Radius r=13

Coefficient of static friction \mu=0.67

Given the Centripetal concept

Generally the equation for Velocity v is mathematically given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{gr}{\mu}}

v=\sqrt{\frac{9.81*13}{0.67}}

v=13.1m/s

The value of the minimum speed (in m/s) for the cyclist to perform the stunt is Given as

v=13.1m/s

How much work would be needed to lift the ball from the 2-m shelf to the 5-m shelf, and how much potential energy would it have
Stells [14]

Answer:

a) 2.94 N

b) 4.90 N

Explanation:

Let us assume that the weight of the ball is 0.98 N

Solution:

a) An object’s gravitational potential energy depends on two factors which are height and its weight (or mass). The equation for gravitational potential energy (PE) is given as:  

Potential energy = weight (w) * height (h)

PE = wh

Potential energy at 2 m shelf = weight * height = 0.98 N * 2 m = 1.96 N

Potential energy at 5 m shelf = weight * height = 0.98 N * 5 m = 4.90 N

The work needed to lift the ball from the 2-m shelf to the 5-m shelf = Potential energy at 5 m shelf - Potential energy at 2 m shelf

The work needed to lift the ball from the 2-m shelf to the 5-m shelf = 4.90 N - 1.96 N = 2.94 N

b) Potential energy at 5 m shelf = weight * height = 0.98 N * 5 m = 4.90 N

When you whirl a can at the end of a string in a circular path, what is the direction of the force that acts on the can
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Toward the centre of the circular path

Explanation:

The can is moved in a circular path: this means that it is moving by circular motion (uniform circular motion if its tangential speed is constant).

In order to keep a circular motion, an object must have a force that pushes it towards the centre of the circular trajectory: this force is called centripetal force, and its magnitude is given by

F=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where m is the mass of the object, v its tangential speed, r the radius of the trajectory. This force always points towards the centre of the circular path.

A simple hydraulic lift is made by fitting a piston attached to a handle into a 3.0-cm diameter cylinder. The cylinder is connec
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Approximately 3.1 \times 10^4 \; \rm N (assuming that the acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.81\; \rm kg \cdot N^{-1}.)

Explanation:

Let A_1 denote the first piston's contact area with the fluid. Let A_2 denote the second piston's contact area with the fluid.

Similarly, let F_1 and F_2 denote the size of the force on the two pistons. Since the person is placing all her weight on the first piston:

F_1 = W = m \cdot g = 50\; \rm kg \times 9.81 \; \rm kg \cdot N^{-1} =495\; \rm N.  

Since both pistons fit into cylinders, the two contact surfaces must be circles. Keep in mind that the area of a square is equal to \pi times its radius, squared:

  • \displaystyle A_1 = \pi \times \left(\frac{1}{2} \times 3.0\right)^2 = 2.25\, \pi\;\rm cm^{2}.
  • \displaystyle A_2 = \pi \times \left(\frac{1}{2} \times 24\right)^2 = 144\, \pi\;\rm cm^{2}.

By Pascal's Law, the pressure on the two pistons should be the same. Pressure is the size of normal force per unit area:

\displaystyle P = \frac{F}{A}.

For the pressures on the two pistons to match:

\displaystyle \frac{F_1}{A_1} = \frac{F_2}{A_2}.

F_1, A_1, and A_2 have all been found. The question is asking for F_2. Rearrange this equation to obtain:

\displaystyle F_2 = \frac{F_1}{A_1} \cdot A_2 = F_1 \cdot \frac{A_2}{A_1}.

Evaluate this expression to obtain the value of F_2, which represents the force on the piston with the larger diameter:

\begin{aligned}F_2 &= F_1 \cdot \frac{A_2}{A_1} \\ &= 495\; \rm N \times \frac{2.25\, \pi\; \rm cm^2}{144\, \pi \; \rm cm^2} \approx 3.1 \times 10^4\; \rm N\end{aligned}.

Which of the following is an example of qualitative data
NemiM [27]
Qualitative data is easy to explain. You either agree or disagree in writing. Wrong. You agree, disagree, or qualify. Meaning agree to somewhat extend, but not entirely. So you can agree that people should walk instead of talk in the progressive manner, but not in the impulsive manner.
