A 20.0-N weight slides down a rough inclined plane which makes an angle of 30 degree with the horizontal. The weight starts from

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

$1270.64\ \text{J}$

Explanation:

m = Mass of object = $\dfrac{mg}{g}$

mg = Weight of object = 20 N

g = Acceleration due to gravity = $9.81\ \text{m/s}^2$

v = Final velocity = 15 m/s

u = Initial velocity = 0

d = Distance moved by the object = 150 m

$\theta$ = Angle of slope = $30^{\circ}$

f = Force of friction

fd = Work done against friction

The force balance of the system is

$\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)=(mg\sin\theta-f)d\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mg\sin\theta d-fd\\\Rightarrow fd=mg\sin\theta d-\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow fd=20\times \sin 30^{\circ}\times 150-\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{20}{9.81}\times 15^2\\\Rightarrow fd=1270.64\ \text{J}$

The work done against friction is $1270.64\ \text{J}$ .

A pendulum is swinging back and forth with a period of 2.0 seconds here on Earth. This pendulum is then brought to the Moon. Wha

LenKa [72]

Answer: The period of the pendulum will increase. Because of less gravity

Explanation:

Since the force of gravity is less on the Moon, the pendulum would swing slower at the same length and angle and its frequency would be less. Hence more time period will be experienced by the pendulum. On the moon, the acceleration due to gravity g is less when compared to that of the earth.
