A pendulum is constructed from a 6 kg mass attached to a strong cord of length 1.7 m also attached to a ceiling. Originally hang

ing vertically, the mass is pulled aside a small distance of 7.6 cm and released from rest. While the mass is swinging the cord exerts an almost-constant force on it. For this problem, assume the force is constant as the mass swings. How much work in J does the cord do to the mass as the mass swings a distance of 8.0 cm

Answer:

work done is -2.8  × 10⁻⁶ J

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

mass of the pendulum m = 6 kg

Length of core = 1.7 m

Now, case1, mass is pulled aside a small distance of 7.6 cm and released from rest. so let θ₁ be the angle made by mass with vertical axis.

so, θ₁ = ( 7.6 × 10⁻² m / 1.7 m ) = 0.045 rad

In case2, mass is pulled aside a small distance of 8 cm and released from rest. so let θ₁ be the angle made by mass with vertical axis.

so, θ₂ = ( 8 × 10⁻² m / 1.7 m ) = 0.047 rad.

Now, the required work done will be;

W = \int\limits^{\theta_2} _{\theta_1} {r} \, d\theta

W = \int\limits^{\theta_2} _{\theta_1} {-mgl sin\theta } \, d\theta

W = -mgl  \int\limits^{0.047 } _{0.045 } {sin\theta } \, d\theta

W = -mgl[ -cosθ ]^{0.047}_{0.045 }

W = 6 × 9.8 × 1.7 × [ cos( 0.047 ) - cos( 0.045 ) ]

W = 6 × 9.8 × 1.7 × [ -2.8 × 10⁻⁸ ]

W = -2.8  × 10⁻⁶ J

Therefore, work done is -2.8  × 10⁻⁶ J

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of change in momentum is (2mv).

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by the product of mass and velocity with which it is moving.

Let the mass of ball is m. A tennis player smashes a ball of mass m horizontally at a vertical wall. The ball rebounds at the same speed v with which it struck the wall.

Initial speed of the ball is v and final speed, when it rebounds, is (-v). The change in momentum is given by :

p = final momentum - initial momentum

p=-mv-mv\\\\p=-2mv

So, the magnitude of change in momentum is (2mv).
