. Is there net work done on an object at rest or moving at a constant velocity? WHICH ONE ???

Physics

Grace [21]3 years ago

If an object is moving with a constant velocity, then by definition it has zero acceleration. So there is no net force acting on the object. The total work done on the object is thus 0 (that's not to say that there isn't work done by individual forces on the object, but the sum is 0 ).

A solid sphere of weight 42.0 N rolls up an incline at an angle of 36.0°. At the bottom of the incline the center of mass of the
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Part a)

KE = 77.95 J

Part b)

L = 3.16 m

Part c)

distance L is independent of the mass of the sphere

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that rotational kinetic energy of the sphere is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}I\omega_2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we will have

KE = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mR^2)(\frac{v}{R})^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we will have

KE = \frac{1}{5} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = \frac{7}{10} mv^2

KE = \frac{7}{10}(\frac{42}{9.81})(5.10^2)

KE = 77.95 J

Part b)

By mechanical energy conservation law we know that

Work done against gravity = initial kinetic energy of the sphere

So we will have

mgLsin\theta = KE

\frac{42}{9.81}(9.81)L sin36 = 77.95

L = 3.16 m

Part c)

by equation of energy conservation we know that

\frac{7}{10}mv^2 = mgL sin\theta

so here we can see that distance L is independent of the mass of the sphere

A 150 kg uniform beam is attached to a vertical wall at one end and is supported by a cable at the other end. Calculate the magn
xenn [34]

Answer:

T = 2010 N

Explanation:

m = mass of the uniform beam = 150 kg

Force of gravity acting on the beam at its center is given as

W = mg

W = 150 x 9.8

W = 1470 N

T = Tension force in the wire

θ = angle made by the wire with the horizontal =  47° deg

L = length of the beam

From the figure,

AC = L

BC = L/2

From the figure, using equilibrium of torque about point C

T (AC) Sin47 = W (BC)

T L Sin47 = W (L/2)

T Sin47 = W/2

T Sin47 = 1470

T = 2010 N

A 10 kg blue cart moving to the right at 25 m/s collides with a 17 kg red cart moving in the opposite direction at 16 m/s. If, a
scoray [572]

Answer:

24.8m/s

Explanation:

Given data

m1= 10kg

u1=25m/s

m2=17kg

u2=16m/s

v1=10m/s

v2=??

Applying the conservation of linear momentum

m1u1+m2u2=m1v1+m2v2

substitute

10*25+17*16=10*10+17*v2

250+272=100+17v2

522=100+17v2

522-100=17v2

422=17v2

Divide both sides by 17

v2= 422/17

v2= 24.8 m/s

Hence the velocity of the red cart is 24.8m/s in the opposite direction of the blue cart
