Answer:

angle minimum   θ = 41.3º

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law in the condition of static equilibrium

    N - W = 0

    N = W

The rotational equilibrium condition, where we place the axis of rotation on the wall

We assume that counterclockwise rotations are positive

     fr (l sin θ) - N (l cos θ) + W (l/2 cos θ) = 0

     

the friction force formula is

     fr = μ N

     fr = μ W

we substitute

      μ m g l sin θ - m g l cos θ + mg l /2   cos θ = 0

      μ sin θ - cos θ + ½ cos θ= 0

         

       μ sin θ - ½ cos θ = 0

       sin θ / cos θ = 1/2 μ

       tan θ = 1/2 μ

       θ = tan⁻¹ (1 / 2μ)

       θ = tan⁻¹ (1 (2 0.57))

      θ = 41.3º

Calculate the velocity of a 1650kg satellite that is in a circular orbit of 4.2 x 10^6m above the surface of a planet which has
Anastasy [175]
-- We're going to be talking about the satellite's speed. 
"Velocity" would include its direction at any instant, and
in a circular orbit, that's constantly changing.

-- The mass of the satellite makes no difference.

Since the planet's radius is  3.95 x 10⁵m  and the satellite is
orbiting  4.2 x 10⁶m  above the surface, the radius of the
orbital path itself is

                               (3.95 x 10⁵m) + (4.2 x 10⁶m)

                     =        (3.95 x 10⁵m) + (42 x 10⁵m)

                     =           45.95 x 10⁵ m

The circumference of the orbit is  (2 π R) =  91.9 π x 10⁵ m.

The bird completes a revolution every 2.0 hours,
so its speed in orbit is

                                     (91.9 π x 10⁵ m) / 2 hr

                        =        45.95 π x 10⁵  m/hr  x  (1 hr / 3,600 sec)

                        =           0.04 x 10⁵      m/sec

                        =              4 x 10³      m/sec  

                                     (4 kilometers per second)

A projectile is launched diagonally into the air and has a hang time of 24.5 seconds. Approximately how much time is required fo
Rasek [7]

Answer:

t=12.25\ seconds

Explanation:

<u>Diagonal Launch </u>

It's referred to as a situation where an object is thrown in free air forming an angle with the horizontal. The object then describes a known path called a parabola, where there are x and y components of the speed, displacement, and acceleration.

The object will eventually reach its maximum height (apex) and then it will return to the height from which it was launched. The equation for the height at any time t is

x=v_ocos\theta t

\displaystyle y=y_o+v_osin\theta \ t-\frac{gt^2}{2}

Where vo is the magnitude of the initial velocity, \theta is the angle, t is the time and g is the acceleration of gravity

The maximum height the object can reach can be computed as

\displaystyle t=\frac{v_osin\theta}{g}

There are two times where the value of y is y_o when t=0 (at launching time) and when it goes back to the same level. We need to find that time t by making y=y_o

\displaystyle y_o=y_o+v_osin\theta\ t-\frac{gt^2}{2}

Removing y_o and dividing by t (t different of zero)

\displaystyle 0=v_osin\theta-\frac{gt}{2}

Then we find the total flight as

\displaystyle t=\frac{2v_osin\theta}{g}

We can easily note the total time (hang time) is twice the maximum (apex) time, so the required time is

\boxed{t=24.5/2=12.25\ seconds}
