A bucket filled with water has a mass of 70kg and is hanging from a rope that is wound around a 0.054 m radius stationary cylind

er. If the cylinder does not rotate and the bucket hangs straight down, what is the magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder?

Answer:

T = 37.08 [N*m]

Explanation:

We must remember that torque is defined as the product of a force by a distance. This distance is measured from the point of application of force to the center of rotation of the rotating body.

The force is equal to the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

$F=m*g\\F=70*9.81\\F=686.7[N]$

Now the torque can be calculated:

$T=F*r\\T=686.7*0.054\\T=37.08[N*m]$

A Ferris wheel starts at rest and builds up to a final angular speed of 0.70 rad/s while rotating through an angular displacemen

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The average angular acceleration is 0.05 radians per square second.

Explanation:

Let suppose that Ferris wheel accelerates at constant rate, the angular acceleration as a function of change in angular position and the squared final and initial angular velocities can be clear from the following expression:

$\omega^{2} = \omega_{o}^{2} + 2 \cdot \alpha\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})$

Where:

$\omega_{o}$ , $\omega$ - Initial and final angular velocities, measured in radians per second.

$\alpha$ - Angular acceleration, measured in radians per square second.

$\theta_{o}$ , $\theta$ - Initial and final angular position, measured in radians.

Then,

$\alpha = \frac{\omega^{2}-\omega_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})}$

Given that $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $\theta-\theta_{o} = 4.9\,rad$ , the angular acceleration is:

$\alpha = \frac{\left(0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(4.9\,rad\right)}$

$\alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

Now, the time needed to accelerate the Ferris wheel uniformly is described by this kinematic equation:

$\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t$

Where $t$ is the time measured in seconds.

The time is cleared and obtain after replacing every value:

$t = \frac{\omega-\omega_{o}}{\alpha}$

If $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $\alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$ , the required time is:

$t = \frac{0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} - 0\,\frac{rad}{s} }{0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} }$

$t = 14\,s$

Average angular acceleration is obtained by dividing the difference between final and initial angular velocities by the time found in the previous step. That is:

$\bar \alpha = \frac{\omega-\omega_{o}}{t}$

If $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $t = 14\,s$ , the average angular acceleration is:

$\bar \alpha = \frac{0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} - 0\,\frac{rad}{s} }{14\,s}$

$\bar \alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

The average angular acceleration is 0.05 radians per square second.

Polly is pushing a box across the floor with a force of 30 N. The force of gravity is -8 in, and the normal force is eight in. W

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

A. -30 N

Explanation:

not sure but if the box isn't moving then the force opposite of Polly would be equal to the force she's exerting.
