4. A box of books weighing 325 N moves at a constant velocity across the floor when the box is pushed with a force of 425 N exer

Rudik [331]

Answer:

0.61°

Explanation:

Since the box move at constant velocity, it means there is no acceleration then we can say it has a balanced force system.

Pulling force= resistance force

From the formula for pulling force,

F(x)= Fcos(θ)

= 425×cos(35.2)

=347N

The force exerted downward at an angle of 35.2° below the horizontal= Fsin(θ)= 425sin(35.2)

=425×0.567=245N

Resistance force= (325N+ 245N) (α)= 570N(α)

We can now equates the pulling force to resistance force

570 (α)= 347N

(α)= 347/570

= 0.61

Starting from rest, a 2-m-long pendulum swings from an angleof

Andrews [41]

Answer:

D.) 1m/s

Explanation:

Assume the initial angle of the swing is 12.8 degree with respect to the vertical. We can calculate the vertical distance from this initial point to the lowest point by first calculate the vertical distance from this point the the pivot point:

$L_1 = L*cos(12.8) = 2*0.975 = 1.95 m$

where L is the pendulum length

The vertical distance from the lowest point to the pivot point $L_2$ is the pendulum length 2m

this means the vertical distance from this initial point to the lowest point is simply:

$L_3 = L_2 - L_1 = 2 - 1.95 = 0.05 m$

As the pendulum travel (vertically) from the initial point to the bottom point, its potential energy is converted to kinetic energy:

$E_p = E_k$

$mgh = mv^2/2$

where m is the mass of the pendulum, g = 10 m/s2 is the constant gravitational acceleration, h = 0.05 is the vertical it travels, v is the pendulum velocity at the bottom, which we are trying to solve for.

The m on both sides of the equation cancel out

$v^2 = 2gh = 2*10*0.05 = 1$
