<span>speed of slower=x; distance in 6 hours is 6x
 speed of larger=2x; distance in 6 hours is 12x
 12x-6x=204 miles
</span><span> 6x=204
 x=34 mph slower, 204 miles in 6 hours.
 2x=68 mph, faster, 408 miles in 6 hours, and difference is 204 miles</span>

A thin rod (length = 2.97 m) is oriented vertically, with its bottom end attached to the floor by means of a frictionless hinge.
nlexa [21]

Answer:

a)  w = 2.57 rad / s , b)   α = 3.3 rad / s²

Explanation:

a) Let's use the conservation of mechanical energy, we will write it in two points the highest and when touching the ground

Initial. Higher

       Em₀ = U = m g h

Final. Touching the ground

       Em_{f} = K = ½ I w²

How energy is conserved

       Em₀ = Em_{f}

       mg h = ½ I w2

The moment of specific object inertia

        I = m L²

We replace

       m g h = ½ (mL²) w²

       w² = 2g h / L²

The height of the object is the length of the bar

        h = L

        w = √ 2g / L

       w = √ (2 9.8 / 2.97)

       w = 2.57 rad / s

b) the angular acceleration can be found from Newton's second rotational law

       τ = I α

       W L = I α

       mg L = (m L²) α

       α = g / L

       α = 9.8 / 2.97

       α = 3.3 rad / s²

A spring is 6.0cm long when it is not stretched, and 10cm long when a 7.0N force is applied. What force is needed to make it 20c
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Approximately 25\; {\rm N} (assuming that this spring is ideal.)

Explanation:

The displacement of a spring is the new length of the spring relative to the original length.

For example:

  • When the 6.0\; {\rm cm}-spring in this question is stretched to 10\; {\rm cm}, the displacement is x = (10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}).
  • Likewise, if this spring is stretched to 20\; {\rm cm}, the displacement would be (20\; {\rm cm} - 6\; {\rm cm}).

If this spring is ideal, the force on the spring would be proportional to the displacement of the spring. In other words, if a force of F_{\text{a}} displaces this spring by x_{\text{a}}, while a force of F_{\text{b}} displaces this spring by x_{\text{b}}, then:

\displaystyle \frac{F_{\text{a}}}{x_{\text{a}}} = \frac{F_{\text{b}}}{x_{\text{b}}}.

In this question, it is given that a force of F_{\text{a}} = 7.0 \; {\rm N} would stretch this spring by x_{\text{a}} = (10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}). Thus, the force F_{\text{b}} required to stretch this spring by x_{\text{a}} = (20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}) would satisfy:

\displaystyle \frac{7.0\; {\rm N}}{10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}}= \frac{F_{\text{b}}}{20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}}.

Rearrange and solve for F_{\text{b}}:

\begin{aligned} F_{\text{b}} &= \frac{7.0\; {\rm N}}{10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}} \, (20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}) \\ &\approx 25\; {\rm N}\end{aligned}.

A juggler is practicing with one ball. It takes 2.4 seconds for the ball to leave her hand and return to her hand. How fast did
nikklg [1K]

The kinematics for the vertical launch we can enter the initial velocity is 11.76 m / s

Given parameters

  • Time t = 2.4 s

To find

  • Initial velocity

Kinematics is the part of physics that establishes the relationships between the position, velocity, and acceleration of bodies.

In this case we have a vertical launch

          y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

Where y and y₀ are the final and initial positions, respectively, v₀ the initial velocity, g the acceleration of gravity (g = 9.8 m / s²) and t the time

   

With the ball in hand, its position is zero

         0 = 0 + v₀ t - ½ g t²

         v₀ t - ½ g t² = 0

         v₀ = ½ g t

Let's calculate

         v₀ = ½ 9.8 2.4

         v₀ = 11.76 m / s

In conclusion using kinematics for the vertical launch we can enter the initial velocity is 11.76 m / s
