Two forces act in opposite directions on a wood block. What will happen if the forces are unbalanced?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

If two unequal forces act in opposite directions, one larger force must cancel out the smaller force,

leaving the net force to be some number in one direction.

Take for example a game of tug-of-war; there are two  OPPOSITE forces (groups of people) acting on the rope, one force is pulling with a force in the negative direction while the other force is pulling in the positive direction.

If the forces on the rope were unequal, then the stronger force (group) will pull everything in their direction.

The same will happen on two unequal forces of opposite directions acting on a wooden block. Therefore, since the resultant force will have a non-zero magnitude and direction, there will be a change in the block's motion and position.

If 2.0 x 10^-4 C charge passes a point in 5.0 x 10^-5 s, what is the rate of current flow?
vampirchik [111]
Current is defined as the rate of charge flowing a point every second. Having a current of 1 Ampere signifies 1 Coulomb is flowing in a circuit every second. It is measured by the use of an ammeter which is positioned in series to the component to be measured. The current in the problem is calculated as follows:

I = 2.0 x 10^-4 C / 5.0 x 10^-5 s

Consider three force vectors Fi with magni- tude 53 N and direction 116º, F2 with mag- nitude 57 N and direction 217°, and F3 wi
Flauer [41]

Answer:

a. Fnet =37.67N

b. The direction = 133.4 from the x axis counter clockwise.

c. Option 2

Explanation:

Given that F1 is 53N at 116°, then it will be at a direction of 116-90=26° in the second quadrant.

Given that F2 is 57N at 116°, then it will be at a direction of 217-180=37° in the third quadrant..

Given that F1 is 71N at 20°, then it is in the first quadrant.

a. Fnet= F1+F2+F3

Fnet= -F1sin26i+F2cos26j-F2cos37i-F2sin37j+F3cos20i+F3sin20j

Fnet= 53sin26i+53cos26j-57cos37i-57sin37j+71cos20i+71sin20j

Resolving the vectors into x and y components.

Fnet= -2.04i+37.62j

Magnitude of the vector

Fnet= √((-2.04)^2+(37.62)^2)

Fnet= 37.67N

Fnet is approximately 38N.

b. Direction of the Fnet.

Angle=arctan(y/x)

Angle=arctan(-37.61/2.04)

Angle= -43.37°

The angle is in the negative x axis and positive y axis.

Then the direction becomes 180-43.37

Therefore, the direction of the net force is 133.37°.

c. The instantaneous velocity of a body is always in the direction of the net force at that instant. Option 2 is correct.

Fnet=ma

Fnet= mv/t

So the velocity is in the direction of the Fnet.

The wheel having a mass of 100 kg and a radius of gyration about the z axis of kz=300mm, rests on the smooth horizontal plane.a.
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

a) 20 rad/s

b) 6 m/s

Explanation:

b) Force acting on the wheel is 200 N

mass of the wheel is 100 kg

From Newton's second law of motion, F = m × a

Where F is the net force acting on the body

m is mass of the body

a is the acceleration of the body

By substituting the values we get, a = 2 m/s²

As acceleration is constant, we can use the below formula for calculating the final velocity of the object

v = u + a × t

Where v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time taken

u = 0 (∵ it starts from rest)

By substituting the values we get

v = 0 + 2 × 3 = 6 m/s

∴ Speed of center of mass after 3 seconds = 6 m/s

a) As the wheel rotates about z-axis, radius of gyration will be the radius of wheel

∴ Radius of the wheel = 300 mm

Torque acting on the wheel about axis of rotation = 300 mm × 200 N =

60 N·m

Torque = (Moment of inertia) × (angular acceleration)

Assuming that the mass of spokes of the wheel to be negligible,

Moment of inertia of the wheel about axis of rotation = 100 × 300² × 10^{-6} = 9 kg·m²

Then,

60 = 9 × (angular acceleration)

∴ angular acceleration ≈ 6·67 rad/s²

As angular acceleration of the wheel is constant, we can use the below formula for calculation of final angular speed

w_{f} = w_{i} + α × t

Where

w_{f} is the final angular velocity

w_{i} is the initial angular velocity

α is the angular acceleration

t is the time taken

w_{i} is 0 (∵ initially it starts from rest)

By substituting the values we get

w_{f} = 6·67 × 3 = 20 rad/s

∴ Angular velocity of the wheel after three seconds = 20 rad/s
