Answer:

Explanation:

The longer arm means the force needed to create the required torque is lower than for the short handled spanner.

τ = FR

You are planning to make an open rectangular box from an 8-inch by 15-inch piece of cardboard by cutting congruent squares from
Phoenix [80]

Let us say that x is the cut that we will make on the sides to make a box, therefore the new dimensions are:

l = 15 – 2x

w = 8 – 2x

It is 2x since we cut on two sides.

 

We know that volume is:

V = l w x

V = (15 – 2x) (8 – 2x) x

V = 120x – 30x^2 – 16x^2 + 4x^3

V = 120x – 46x^2 + 4x^3

 

Taking the 1st derivative:

dV/dx = 120 – 92x + 12x^2

 

Set dV/dx = 0 to get maxima:

120 – 92x + 12x^2 = 0

 

Divide by 12:

x^2 – (92/12)x + 10 = 0

(x – (92/24))^2 = -10 + (92/24)^2

x - 92/24 = ±2.17

x = 1.66, 6

We cannot have x = 6 because that will make our w negative, so:

x = 1.66 inches

 

So the largest volume is:

V = 120x – 46x^2 + 4x^3

V = 120(1.66) – 46(1.66)^2 + 4(1.66)^3

V = 90.74 cubic inches

A wheel starts from rest and rotates with constant angular acceleration to reach an angular speed of 11.2 rad/s in 3.07 s. (a) f
Hitman42 [59]
(a) The angular acceleration of the wheel is given by
\alpha =  \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i }{t}
where \omega_i and \omega_f are the initial and final angular speed of the wheel, and t the time.

In our problem, the initial angular speed is zero (the wheel starts from rest), so the angular acceleration is
\alpha =  \frac{(11.2 rad/s) - 0}{3.07 s} =3.65 rad/s^2

(b) The wheel is moving by uniformly rotational accelerated motion, so the angle it covered after a time t is given by
\theta (t) = \omega_i t +  \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2
where \omega_i = 0 is the initial angular speed. So, the angle covered after a time t=3.07 s is
\theta=  \frac{1}{2}  \alpha t^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(3.65 rad/s^2)(3.07 s)^2 = 17.2 rad

During its swing, a pendulum on a clock has the kinetic energy of 6J and the potential energy of 5J. What formula will you use t
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, which is the energy exerted by a moving object. An active pendulum has the most kinetic energy at the lowest point of its swing when the weight is moving fastest.
