6) If a mass of an object is decreased to half and acting force is reduced by quarter the acceleration of its motion

Physics

Zepler [3.9K]3 years ago

Answer:

Decreases to half.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial mass (m₁) = m

Initial force (F₁) = F

Initial acceleration (a₁) =?

Final mass (m₂) = ½m

Final force (F₂) = ¼F

Final acceleration (a₂) =?

Next, we shall determine a₁. This can be obtained as follow:

F₁ = m₁a₁

F = ma₁

Divide both side by m

a₁ = F / m

Next, we shall determine a₂.

F₂ = m₂a₂

¼F = ½ma₂

2F = 4ma₂

Divide both side by 4m

a₂ = 2F / 4m

a₂ = F / 2m

Finally, we shall determine the ratio of a₂ to a₁. This can be obtained as follow:

a₁ = F / m

a₂ = F / 2m

a₂ : a₁ = a₂ / a₁

a₂ / a₁ = F/2m ÷ F/m

a₂ / a₁ = F/2m × m/F

a₂ / a₁ = ½

Cross multiply

a₂ = ½a₁

From the illustrations made above, the acceleration of the car will decrease to half the original acceleration

A ship's anchor weighs 5000N. It's cable passes over a roller of negligible mass and is wound around a hollow cylindrical drum o
deff fn [24]
Hi! Great first step would be to understand the scenario (in my opinion). So two great ways would be to draw a picture or rephrase it. If something else works, do that! You just need to "see" the situation so that you can take some away from it.

Then I think a good next step is to conceptualize everything. Put everything into a context like a physics book would. The anchor is pulled 5000N downward - that's weight. The roller will act like a pulley, and we can ignore it's properties except that it's part of a pulley system (we can ignore stuff because it has "negligible" mass and no other details are given). And then we have the hollow cylindrical drum with one radius measurement given; so we can think of this as a made-up shape with mass - a cylindrical soda can without a top or bottom (but no thickness) and a 380kg mass. The anchor is drops 16m. It hints at energy. The energy that the drum gets is all do to this anchor pulling on the rope (which is really just a means of transferring force, since we neglect its mass and get no details).

Feel free to pause here to make sure you can get the scenario in your head.

So, we want to know something about the barrel as it's rolling. The rotation rate. How many turns per some time. But don't worry yet, we can find a way to work that in. Since the rope pulls and spins the drum, the drum is spun, and gets energy. One way to find the kinetic energy of the spinning drum uses the radius, mass, and rate of rotation. More on that soon.

And how does having some equation with the drum's kinetic energy, radius, mass, and rate of rotation help? Well, we can find all of those except our rate of rotation and solve for the rate of rotation. The energy is the only mystery, but that all comes from the dropping anchor. Can we find that energy? Yeah, there's a way to find the energy that gravity gives our anchor based on it's the force and how far that force moves it.

So, first for the anchor. Linear work is simple:  W=F d
So you have your force and distance we associate with the anchor, so you have your work. We'll call that "W_1" when we need it.

Next the drum's situation. Thanks to http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/hframe.html, we have the equation for kinetic energy.
Generally, we have <em></em>KE=\frac12I\omega^2, and we need the "I," which deals with rotational inertia. That is pretty much how hard it is to rotate the drum based only on the idea that your getting the mass to move (acceleration). That site refers to our hollow drum as a "hoop," and gives says that we can consider the rotational inertia to be I=MR^2. Now that we know the rotational inertia, we can use good old mathematical substitution to get the kinetic energy to look like
KE=\frac12MR^2\omega^2
And we can rearrange that to get
\omega=\sqrt{\frac{2KE}{MR^2}}=\sqrt{\frac{2KE}{M}}\cdot\frac1R

Since the energy change from the anchor's fall is the energy change of the drum, this KE is the "W_1" from before. So
\omega=\sqrt{\frac{2W_1}{M}}\cdot\frac1R=\sqrt{\frac{2\left(F d\right)}{M}}\cdot\frac1R

Now everything's set up. It's a matter of checking my work, carefully using a calculator, and making sure the answer makes sense (ie. this should be a lot of energy - much more than 1 Joule). Also, follow up by making sure you can do it again, alone. And feel free to ask or lookup questions you need along the way if there are missing pieces in your understanding.

Good luck! :)

How are passengers affected when a moving bus is stopped suddenly? Explain with reason.<br>​
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

When a moving bus stops suddenly, the passenger are pushed forward because of the inertia of the passengers. ... Because the lower part of the body comes to rest with the bus while the upper part tends to continue its motion due to inertia.

Explanation :

The passengers in a bus tend to fall backward when it starts suddenly due to inertia as the passengers tend to remain in the state of rest while the bus starts to move. When the bus stops suddenly, people fall forward because their inertia as they are in state of motion even when the bus has come to rest.

Hope this helps!! <3

A ball is kicked at an angle of 30˚ with the ground. What should be the initial velocity of the
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

a.18.5 m/s

b.1.98 s

Explanation:

We are given that

a.Let  be the initial velocity of the ball.

Distance,x=30 m

Height,h=1.8 m

Substitute the values

Initial velocity of the ball=18.5 m/s

b.Substitute the value then we get

t=1.98 s

Hence, the time for the ball to reach the target=1.98 s
