3.00 textbook rests on a frictionless, horizontal tabletop surface. A cord attached to the book passes over a pulley whose diame

ter is 0.15 m, to a hanging book with mass 4.00 kg. The system is released from rest, and the books are observed to move 1.00 m in 0.750 s. What is the tension of the cord on 3.00 kg book

Answer:

a1 = 3.56 m/s²

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of book on horizontal surface; m1 = 3 kg

Mass of hanging book; m2 = 4 kg

Diameter of pulley; D = 0.15 m

Radius of pulley; r = D/2 = 0.15/2 = 0.075 m

Change in displacement; Δx = Δy = 1 m

Time; t = 0.75

I've drawn a free body diagram to depict this question.

Since we want to find the tension of the cord on 3.00 kg book, it means we are looking for T1 as depicted in the FBD attached. T1 is calculated from taking moments about the x-axis to give;

ΣF_x = T1 = m1 × a1

a1 is acceleration and can be calculated from Newton's 2nd equation of motion.

s = ut + ½at²

our s is now Δx and a1 is a.

Thus;

Δx = ut + ½a1(t²)

u is initial velocity and equal to zero because the 3 kg book was at rest initially.

Thus, plugging in the relevant values;

1 = 0 + ½a1(0.75²)

Multiply through by 2;

2 = 0.75²a1

a1 = 2/0.75²

a1 = 3.56 m/s²

A european car manufacturer reports that the fuel efficiency of the new microcar is 28.5 km/l highway and 22.0 km/l city. what a
Studentka2010 [4]

We know that:

1 mile = 1.61 km

1 gal = 3.8 L

 

Therefore converting the fuel efficiency rates:

highway = (28.5 km/L) * (1 mile / 1.61 km) * (3.8 L / 1 gal) = 67.27 mile / gal

<span>city = (22.0 km/L) * (1 mile / 1.61 km) * (3.8 L / 1 gal) = 51.93 mile / gal</span>

H e l p.. I have no idea what any of this is, what is the first step of the hydrogen fusion process
klasskru [66]
The answer to this question is the first choice. In the hydrogen fusion process, the first step involves the collision of two protons to emit an antielectron and a neutrino. Only the first choice of
                             1_1H + 1_1H →2_1H + e^+ + v + energy
reflects this process. A hydrogen ion with a mass of one and number protons of 1 means a proton.
