A 235-kg merry-go-round at the Great Escape in Lake George is in the shape of a uniform, solid, horizontal disk of radius 1.50 m

. It is set in motion by wrapping a rope about the rim of the disk and pulling on the rope. What constant force would have to be exerted on the rope to bring the merry-go-round from rest to an angular speed of 0.400 rev/s in 2.00 s?

Answer:

The constant force to be exerted on the rope is 221.55 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the merry, m = 235 kg

radius, r = 1.5 m

number of revolution per second, = 0.4 rev/s

time of motion, t= 2.00 s

The angular acceleration is given by;

\alpha = \frac{0.4 \ rev}{s} *\frac{2\pi \ rad}{rev} *\frac{1}{2.0\ s} = 1.257 \ rad/s^2

Torque is given by;

τ = F.r

Also torque in uniform solid disk is given by;

τ = ¹/₂mr²α

Thus, equating the two;

F.r = ¹/₂mr²α

F =  ¹/₂mrα

F = ¹/₂(235)(1.5)(1.257)

F = 221.55 N

Therefore, the constant force to be exerted on the rope is 221.55 N

You should not go into the left side of the roadway when within 100 feet of the crossing. Moreover, you should also turn on your turn signal when within 100 of a turn. These precautions prevent accidents as it makes clear to other drivers what your intentions are and drivers making turns are not endangered.

A student pushes a 2.85 kg cart causing it to accelerate at a rate of 4.9 m/s squared .What amount of force must the student hav
uysha [10]
In order to find the force (F), you would have to use the formula for it:
F=ma
where m is mass and a is acceleration.
In the problem, the mass is 2.85kg and the acceleration is 4.9m/s^2.
Therefore,
F=2.85kg(4.9m/s^2)
F=13.965kg(m/s^2)
Since N=kg(m/s^2)
F=13.965N
And because the problem requires that we use only 2 significant figures,
F=13N
Therefore, the student must exert 13N of force.

love history [14]

Answer:

625 W

Explanation:

Applying

P = W/t.................... Equation 1

Where p = power, W = Work, t = time

But,

W = Force (F) × distance (d)

W = Fd........................ Equation 2

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

P = Fd/t.................... Equation 3

From the question,

Given: F = 5000 N, d = 30 m, t = 4 munites = (4×60) seconds = 240 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 3

P = (5000×30)/240

P = 625 Watt
