Answer:
write the equation of motion go over the centre of mass
Explanation:
the center of mass of a distribution of mass in space (sometimes referred to as the balance point) is the unique point where the weighted relative position of the distributed mass sums to zero. This is the point to which a force may be applied to cause a linear acceleration without an angular acceleration.
Answer:
189 m/s
Explanation:
The pilot will experience weightlessness when the centrifugal force, F equals his weight, W.
So, F = W
mv²/r = mg
v² = gr
v = √gr where v = velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and r = radius of loop = 3.63 × 10³ m
So, v = √gr
v = √(9.8 m/s² × 3.63 × 10³ m)
v = √(35.574 × 10³ m²/s²)
v = √(3.5574 × 10⁴ m²/s²)
v = 1.89 × 10² m/s
v = 189 m/s
Answer:
a) m=20000Kg
b) v=0.214m/s
Explanation:
We will separate the problem in 3 parts, part A when there were no coals on the car, part B when there is 1 coal on the car and part C when there are 2 coals on the car. Inertia is the mass in this case.
For each part, and since the coals are thrown vertically, the horizontal linear momentum p=mv must be conserved, that is,
, were each velocity refers to the one of the car (with the eventual coals on it) for each part, and each mass the mass of the car (with the eventual coals on it) also for each part. We will write the mass of the hopper car as
, and the mass of the first and second coals as
and
respectively
We start with the transition between parts A and B, so we have:

Which means

And since we want the mass of the first coal thrown (
) we do:



Substituting values we obtain

For the transition between parts B and C, we can write:

Which means

Since we want the new final speed of the car (
) we do:

Substituting values we obtain
