Two blocks, with masses m and 3m , are attached to the ends of a string with negligible mass that passes over a pulley, as shown

above. The pulley has negligible mass and friction and is attached to the ceiling by a bracket. The blocks are simultaneously released from rest.
(b) Determine the work done by the string on the two-block system as each block moves a distance d.

Answer:

(a)v = √gd (b) Td - Td = 0 (c) -g/4 m/s²

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

By the work energy theorem,

ΔKE = W = work done

1/2 *3m * v² + 1/2 * m * v² = 3mgd - mgd

so,

2 v² = 2gd

v = √gd

(b)W tension system = Td - Td = 0

(c) a = 3mg - mg/ 4m = g/2

Thus,

Acm = 3 m (g/2) + m (g/2)/4m

= -g/4 m/s²

Note: The complete question to this example is shown below

Two blocks, with masses m and 3m, are attached to the ends of a string with negligible mass that passes over a pulley, as shown above. The pulley has negligible mass and friction and is attached to the ceiling by a bracket. The blocks are simultaneously released from rest.

(a) Derive an equation for the speed v of the block of mass 3m after it falls a distance d in terms of m, d, and physical constants, as appropriate.

(b) Determine the work done by the string on the two-block system as each block moves a distance d.

(c) The acceleration of the center of mass of the blocks-string-pulley system has magnitude aCOM . Briefly  explain, in terms of any external forces acting on the system, why aCOM

Andrei [34K]

Group 17 is the second column from the right in the periodic table and contains six elements: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (As), and (Ts). Astatine and are radioactive elements with very short half-lives and thus do not occur naturally.

A power plant produces 1000 MW to suply a city 40Km away.Current flows from the power plant on a single wire of resistance0.050
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The current in wire resistance 2Ω

a). 8696 A

b). fraction power 15.1% a 115kV

Explanation:

Resistance

R=0.05Ω/Km*40km

R=2Ω

P=1000 MW

a).

P=V*I\\I=\frac{P}{V}=\frac{1000x10^{6}W}{115x10^{3}k }  =8696.65A

Using law ohm

b).

V=I*R\\I=\frac{V}{R}

P=I*I*R\\P=I^{2} *R\\P=8696.65^{2}*2\\P=151.228 x10^{6}  W

e=\frac{151.228x10^{6} }{1000x10^{6} }*100= 15.12%
