Answer:

An object can have a displacement in the absence of any external force acting on it

Explanation:

When a object moves with a constant velocity (v), then it gets displaced in the direction of motion but the net external force experienced by the object is zero.

F external =ma

If object moves with constant velocity, acceleration is zero.

Since, a=0 ⟹F external =0

Using s=ut+ 1/2 at ^2

⟹ Displacement s=ut (∵a=0)

Hence, an object can have a displacement in the absence of any external force acting on it

Hope this helped you:)

Identify a situation in which you would want to have a high

Andreyy89

Answer: A voltmeter must have a high resistance where as an ammeter must have a low resistance.

Explanation:

A voltmeter is a device which is connected in parallel to the component across which voltage needs to be measured. In a parallel circuit voltage drop is same at the nodes. The parallel connection must not offer easier path for current to divert from the main circuit and travel. Thus, a voltmeter must have high resistance.

On the other hand, an ammeter which is used to measure current in the circuit must have low resistance as it is connected in series. It should not offer resistance as it would reduce the actual current and measurement would be inaccurate.

Un pintor de 75.0 kg sube por una escalera de 2.75 m que está inclinada contra una pared vertical. La escalera forma un ángulo d

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Work done, W = 1786.17J

Explanation:

The question says "A 75.0-kg painter climbs a 2.75-m ladder that is leaning against a vertical wall. The ladder makes an angle of 30.0 ° with the wall. How much work (in Joules) does gravity do on the painter? "

Mass of a painter, m = 75 kg

He climbs 2.75-m ladder that is leaning against a vertical wall.

The ladder makes an angle of 30 degrees with the wall.

We need to find the work done by the gravity on the painter.

The angle between the weight of the painter and the displacement is :

θ = 180 - 30

= 150°

The work done by the gravity is given by :

$W=Fd\cos\theta\\\\=75\times 10\times 2.75\times \cos30\\\\=1786.17\ J$

Hence, the required work done is 1786.17 J.

Jessica stretches her arms out 0.60 m from the center of her body while holding a 2.0 kg mass in each hand. She then spins aroun

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

a.) L = 2.64 kgm^2/s

b.) V = 4.4 m/s

Explanation: Jessica stretches her arms out 0.60 m from the center of her body. This will be considered as radius.

So,

Radius r = 0.6 m

Mass M = 2 kg

Velocity V = 1.1 m/s

Angular momentum L can be expressed as;

L = MVr

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

L = 2 × 1.1 × 0.6 = 1.32kgm^2s^-1

the combined angular momentum of the masses will be 2 × 1.32 = 2.64 kgm^2s-1

b. If she pulls her arms into 0.15 m,

New radius = 0.15 m

Using the same formula again

L = 2( MVr)

2.64 = 2( 2 × V × 0.15 )

1.32 = 0.3 V

V = 1.32/0.3

V = 4.4 m/s

Her new linear speed will be 4.4 m/s

uniform disk with mass 40.0 kg and radius 0.200 m is pivoted at its center about a horizontal, frictionless axle that is station

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

The magnitude of the tangential velocity is $v= 0.868 m/s$

The magnitude of the resultant acceleration at that point is $a = 4.057 m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the uniform disk is $m_d = 40.0kg$

The radius of the uniform disk is $R_d = 0.200m$

The force applied on the disk is $F_d = 30.0N$

Generally the angular speed i mathematically represented as

$w = \sqrt{2 \alpha \theta}$

Where $\theta$ is the angular displacement given from the question as

$\theta = 0.2000 rev = 0.2000 rev * \frac{2 \pi \ rad }{1 rev}$

$=1.257\ rad$

$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration which is mathematically represented as

$\alpha = \frac{torque }{moment \ of \ inertia} = \frac{F_d * R_d}{I}$

The moment of inertial is mathematically represented as

$I = \frac{1}{2} m_dR^2_d$

Substituting values

$I = 0.5 * 40 * 0.200^2$

$= 0.8kg \cdot m^2$

Considering the equation for angular acceleration

$\alpha = \frac{torque }{moment \ of \ inertia} = \frac{F_d * R_d}{I}$

Substituting values

$\alph$ $\alpha = \frac{(30.0)(0.200)}{0.8}$

$= 7.5 rad/s^2$

Considering the equation for angular velocity

$w = \sqrt{2 \alpha \theta}$

Substituting values

$w =\sqrt{2 * (7.5) * 1.257}$

$= 4.34 \ rad/s$

The tangential velocity of a given point on the rim is mathematically represented as

$v = R_d w$

Substituting values

$= (0.200)(4.34)$

$v= 0.868 m/s$

The radial acceleration at hat point is mathematically represented as

$\alpha_r = \frac{v^2}{R}$

$= \frac{0.868^2}{0.200^2}$

$= 3.7699 \ m/s^2$

The tangential acceleration at that point is mathematically represented as

$\alpha _t = R \alpha$

Substituting values

$\alpha _t = (0.200) (7.5)$

$= 1.5 m/s^2$

The magnitude of resultant acceleration at that point is

$a = \sqrt{\alpha_r ^2+ \alpha_t^2 }$

Substituting values

$a = \sqrt{(3.7699)^2 + (1.5)^2}$

$a = 4.057 m/s^2$
