In a follow-up experiment, two identical gurneys are placed side-by-side on a ramp with their wheels locked to eliminate spinnin

g. Gurney 1 has a dummy placed on it to give it a total mass of 200 kg, while Gurney 2 is loaded with a dummy that makes it only 50 kg overall. If the ramp has a coefficient of friction of μs, which gurney is more likely to slide down the ramp?

Answer:

Gurney 2 is more likely to slide.

Explanation:

We know static friction force is equal to the mass of the object times coefficient of friction.

Static friction force is the frictional force applied to the object which prevents the body to slip or slide when the body is at rest.

Now in the question, the gurney 1 which is placed in the ramp has a total mass of 200 kg and the coefficient of friction between the ramp and the gurney is μ.

And the gurney 2 place on the same ramp has a total mass of 50 kg and coefficient of friction μ between the ramp and the gurney 2.

Both the gurneys are at rest initially, means they are acted upon by static frictional force.

Mathematically, Static friction force = mass x coefficient of friction

So static friction depends on mass and since it is clear that the gurney 1 has a greater mass of 200 kg than the gurney 2 which has a total of 50 kg.

Therefore gurney 1 has greater static friction that is acted upon it which restricts it to slide or slip.

So, gurney 2 is more likely to slide down the ramp.

The maximum rate at which energy can be added to the circuit element mathematically given as

MER=5.044 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{sec}

<h3>What is the maximum rate at which energy can be added to the circuit element?</h3>

Generally, the equation for P is  mathematically given as

P=\ln s \frac{\Delta T}{\Delta t}

Therefore

Rate\ of\ Change\ of\ Temp =\frac{p}{lnS}

\frac{p}{lnS}=\frac{7.4 \times 10^{-3}}{23 \times 10^{-6} \times 705}

\frac{p}{lnS}=0.456^{\circ \mathrm{c}} / \mathrm{sec}

Max temp Change

MaxT=5.6^{\circ} \mathrm{C}

\text { time }=3 \times 60

t=180s

In conclusion, Max Energy Rate

MER =23 \times 10^{-6} \times \frac{301 \times 5.6}{180}

MER=5.044 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{sec}

The uniform slender bar AB has a mass of 6.4 kg and swings in a vertical plane about the pivot at A. If θ˙ = 2.7 rad/s when θ =
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

F=√[(1.5(14.58L+11.96))² + (3.2(2.97L - 157.03) + 62.72)²]

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the bar AB, m = 6.4 kg

The angular velocity of the bar,  θ˙ = 2.7 rad/s

The angle of the bar at A, θ = 24°

Let the length of the bar be, L = l

The angular moment at point A is,

                        ∑ Mₐ = Iα

Where,     Mₐ - the moment about A

                 α  - angular acceleration

                 I - moment of inertia of the rod AB

                       -mg(\frac{lcos\theta}{2})=\frac{1}{3}(ml^{2})\alpha

                        \alpha=\frac{-3gcos\theta}{2l}

Let G be the center of gravity of the bar AB

The position vector at A with respect to the origin at G is,

                          \vec{r_{G}}=[\frac{lcos\theta}{2}\hat{i}-\frac{lcos\theta}{2}\hat{j}]

The acceleration at the center of the bar

                          \vec{a_{G}}=\vec{a_{a}}+\vec{\alpha}X\vec{r_{G}}-\omega^{2}\vec{r_{G}}

Since the point A is fixed, acceleration is 0

The acceleration with respect to the coordinate axes is,

                         (\vec{a_{G}})_{x}\hat{i}+(\vec{a_{G}})_{y}\hat{j}=0+(\frac{-3gcos\theta}{2l})\hat{k}\times[\frac{lcos\theta}{2}\hat{i}-\frac{lcos\theta}{2}\hat{j}]-\omega^{2}[\frac{lcos\theta}{2}\hat{i}-\frac{lcos\theta}{2}\hat{j}]

(\vec{a_{G}})_{x}\hat{i}+(\vec{a_{G}})_{y}\hat{j}=[-\frac{cos\theta(2l\omega^{2}+3gsin\theta)}{4}\hat{i}+(\frac{2l\omega^{2}sin\theta-3gcos^{2}\theta}{4})\hat{j}]

Comparing the coefficients of i

=-\frac{cos\theta(2l\omega^{2}+3gsin\theta)}{4}

Comparing coefficients of j

(\vec{a_{G}})_{y}=\frac{2l\omega^{2}sin\theta-3gcos^{2}\theta}{4}

Net force on x direction

F_{x}=(\vec{a_{G}})_{x}

substituting the values

F_{x}=1.5(14.58L+11.96)

Similarly net force on y direction

F_{y}=(\vec{a_{G}})_{y}+mg

               = 3.2(2.97L - 157.03) + 62.72

Where L is the length of the bar AB

Therefore the net force,

F=\sqrt{F_{x}^{2}+F_{y}^{2}}

F=√[(1.5(14.58L+11.96))² + (3.2(2.97L - 157.03) + 62.72)²]

Substituting the value of L gives the force at pin A

Would you measure the height of a building in meters? give reasons for your answer
vampirchik [111]
No because, if we measure the height of a building in 'metres' it will be difficult for us as we will have a big number. Calculating the height in feet is easier.
