Answer:

B - spring scale and meterstick

Explanation:

The work done by the force of gravity as the object falls is equal to the potential energy of the object.

We know that the gravitational potential energy(PE) of an object is obtained by;

PE =mgΔh

Where;

m = mass of the object

g = acceleration due to gravity

h= height of the object

The spring scale is needed to measure the mass of the object while the meterstick measures the Δh in meters.

Answer:

I believe the answer is B.

Explanation:

Newton's First Law of Gravity states, "The greater the weight (or mass) of an object, the more inertia it has. Heavy objects are harder to move than light ones because they have more inertia. "

b. A string is wrapped around a pulley of radius 0.05 m and moment of inertia 0.2 kg  m2. If the string is pulled with a force
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

f = 8 N

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Radius of the pulley  = r = 0.05 m

Moment of inertia = (I) = 0.2 kg.m^{2}

Angular acceleration = ∝ = 2 rad/sec

Based on the above information

As we know that

Torque is

= force \times  radius

= f \times r

And,

Torque is also

= moment\ of\ inertia \times angular\ acceleration

= I \times \alpha

So,

We can say that

f \times r = I \times \alpha

f \times 0.05 = 0.2 \times 2

0.05f = 0.4

f = 8 N

We simply applied the above formulas

Find an expression for the kinetic energy of the car at the top of the loop.Express the kinetic energy in terms of m, g, h, and
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

K.E₂ = mg(h - 2R)

Explanation:

The diagram of the car at the top of the loop is given below. Considering the initial position of the car and the final position as the top of the loop. We apply law of conservation of energy:

K.E₁ + P.E₁ = K.E₂ + P.E₂

where,

K.E₁ = Initial Kinetic Energy = (1/2)mv² = (1/2)m(0 m/s)² = 0 (car initially at rest)

P.E₁ = Initial Potential Energy = mgh

K.E₂ = Final Kinetic Energy at the top of the loop = ?

P.E₂ = Final Potential Energy = mg(2R) (since, the height at top of loop is 2R)

Therefore,

0 + mgh = K.E₂ + mg(2R)

<u>K.E₂ = mg(h - 2R)</u>
