Answer:
acceleration are
hollow cylinder < hollow sphere < solid cylinder < solid sphere
Explanation:
To answer this question, let's analyze the problem. Let's use conservation of energy
Starting point. Highest point
Em₀ = U = m g h
Final point. To get off the ramp
Em_f = K = ½ mv² + ½ I w²
notice that we include the kinetic energy of translation and rotation
energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_f
mgh = ½ m v² +1/2 I w²
angular and linear velocity are related
v = w r
w = v / r
we substitute
mg h = ½ v² (m + I / r²)
v² = 2 gh
v² = 2gh
this is the velocity at the bottom of the plane ,, indicate that it stops from rest, so we can use the kinematics relationship to find the acceleration in the axis ax (parallel to the plane)
v² = v₀² + 2 a L
where L is the length of the plane
v² = 2 a L
a = v² / 2L
we substitute
a =
let's use trigonometry
sin θ = h / L
we substitute
a = g sin θ \ \frac{h}{L} \ \frac{1}{1+ \frac{I}{m r^2 } }
the moment of inertia of each object is tabulated, let's find the acceleration of each object
a) Hollow cylinder
I = m r²
we look for the acerleracion
a₁ = g sin θ 1/1 + mr² / mr² =
a₁ = g sin θ ½
b) solid cylinder
I = ½ m r²
a₂ = g sin θ = g sin θ
a₂ = g sin θ ⅔
c) hollow sphere
I = 2/3 m r²
a₃ = g sin θ
a₃ = g sin θ
d) solid sphere
I = 2/5 m r²
a₄ = g sin θ
a₄ = g sin θ
We already have all the accelerations, to facilitate the comparison let's place the fractions with the same denominator (the greatest common denominator is 210)
a) a₁ = g sin θ ½ = g sin θ
b) a₂ = g sinθ ⅔ = g sin θ
c) a₃ = g sin θ = g sin θ
d) a₄ = g sin θ = g sin θ
the order of acceleration from lower to higher is
a₁ <a₃ <a₂ <a₄
acceleration are
hollow cylinder < hollow sphere < solid cylinder < solid sphere
Answer:
If the canoe heads upstream the speed is zero. And directly across the river is 8.48 [km/h] towards southeast
Explanation:
When the canoe moves upstream, it is moving in the opposite direction of the normal river current. Since the velocities are vector (magnitude and direction) we can sum each vector:
Vr = velocity of the river = 6[km/h}
Vc = velocity of the canoe = -6 [km/h]
We take the direction of the river as positive, therefore other velocity in the opposite direction will be negative.
Vt = Vr + Vc = 6 - 6 = 0 [km/h]
For the second question, we need to make a sketch of the canoe and we are watching this movement at a high elevation. So let's say that the canoe is located in point 0 where it is located one of the river's borders.
So we are having one movement to the right (x-direction). And the movement of the river to the south ( - y-direction).
Since the velocities are vector we can sum each vector, so using the Pythagoras theorem we have:
