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:

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

ball A of mass 5.0 kg moving at 20 meters per second collides with ball B of unknown mass moving at 10. meters per second in the

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:The mass of ball B is 10 kg.

Explanation;

Mass of ball A = $M_A=5 kg$

Velocity of the ball A before collision: $U_A=20 m/s$

Velocity of ball A after collision= $V_A=10 m/s$

Mass of ball B= $M_B$

Velocity of the ball B before collision: $U_B=10 m/s$

Velocity of ball B after collision= $V_B=15 m/s$

$M_AV_A+M_BV_B=M_AU_A+M_BU_B$

$5 kg\times 10 m/s+M_B\times 15=5 kg\times 20m/s+M_B\times 10m/s$

$M_B=10kg$

The mass of ball B is 10 kg.

You throw a small rock straight up from the edge of a highway bridge that crosses a river. the rock passes you on its way down,

maw [93]

V^2=u^2 +2aS
U is found first by considering that first 8 secs and using v=u+at. {different v and u though}

V=-u+gt.
Magnitude of u = magnitude of v if there is no resistance ( because the conservation of energy says the k. E. must be the same when it passes you as when it left your hand).... up is negative here, down is positive.
V+v=gt
2v= g x 8
V=4xg.= the initial velocity for the next calculation
V^2=(4g)^2+(2xgx21)

So v can be calculated.

57. Example of the law of force and acceleration

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Newton's Second Law of Motion says that acceleration (gaining speed) happens when a force acts on a mass (object). Riding your bicycle is a good example of this law of motion at work. Your bicycle is the mass. Your leg muscles pushing pushing on the pedals of your bicycle is the force.

In a shipping company distribution center, an open cart of mass 50.0 kg is rolling to the left at a speed of 5.00 m/s. Ignore fr

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

a) $v_p=9.35m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Open cart of mass $M_o=50.0 kg$

Speed of cart $V=5.00m/s$

Mass of package $M_p=15.0kg$

Speed of package at end of chute $V_c=3.00m/s$

Angle of inclination $\angle =37$

Distance of chute from bottom of cart $d_x=4.00m$

a)

Generally the equation for work energy theory is mathematically given by

$\frac{1}{2}mu^2+mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv_p^2$

Therefore

$\frac{1}{2}u^2+gh=\frac{1}{2}v_p^2$

$v_p=\sqrt{2(\frac{1}{2}u^2+gh)}$

$v_p=\sqrt{2(\frac{1}{2}v_c^2+gd_x)}$

$v_p=\sqrt{2(\frac{1}{2}(3)^2+(9.8)(4))}$

$v_p=9.35m/s$

How does kinetic energy affect the stopping distance of a vehicle traveling at 30 mph compared to the same vehicle traveling at

Maru [420]

Well you of course have different kinetic energies with the two speeds.
Kinetic energy = (1/2)*mass*velocity^2
The vehicle's mass is the same in both cases, so we can ignore that as well as 1/2 since it's a constant.
So we have (30)^2 vs (60^2)
which is 900 vs 3600
So having 60 mph compared to 30 mph is 4 times the kinetic energy.
