Answer:

We conclude that the required momentum is 80 kgm/s.

Explanation:

Given

Mass m = 20 kg

Velocity v = 4 m/s

To determine

The momentum p = ?

Important Tip:

The momentum of an object is the product of mass and velocity.

We can determine the momentum using the formula

$p = mv$

where

p is the momentum

m is the mass

v is the velocity

now substituting m = 20 and v = 4 using the equation

$p = mv$

$p = (20) (4)$

$p = 80$ kg m/s

Therefore, we conclude that the required momentum is 80 kgm/s.

Zolol [24]

The temperature difference of 1 K is equivalent to the temperature difference of 1 °C. Therefore, we find the relationship between the change in °F and °C.
A change of 212 - 32 °F is the same as a change of 100 - 0 °C. Thus:
(212 - 32) °F = (100 - 0) °C
1 °C = 1.8 °F
1 K = 1.8 °F

• ¿Qué rapidez tendrá un sonido de 150 Hz con una longitud de onda de 2 metros?

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Speed = 300 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Frequency = 150 Hz

Wavelength = 2 meters

To find the speed of the wave;

Mathematically, the speed of a wave is given by the formula:

$Speed = wavelength * frequency$

Substituting into the formula, we have;

$Speed = 2 * 150$

Speed = 300 m/s

Harman [31]

Answer:

A) 1.55

B) 1.55

C) 12.92

D) 34.08

E) 57.82

Explanation:

The free body diagram attached, R is the radius of the wheel

Block B is lighter than block A so block A will move upward while A downward with the same acceleration. Since no snipping will occur, the wheel rotates in clockwise direction.

At the centre of the whee, torque due to B is given by

${\tau _2} = - {T_{\rm{B}}}R$

Similarly, torque due to A is given by

${\tau _1} = {T_{\rm{A}}}R$

The sum of torque at the pivot is given by

$\tau = {\tau _1} + {\tau _2}$

Replacing ${\tau _1}$ and ${\tau _2}$ by ${T_{\rm{A}}}R$ and $- {T_{\rm{B}}}R$ respectively yields

$\begin{array}{c}\\\tau = {T_{\rm{A}}}R - {T_{\rm{B}}}R\\\\ = \left( {{T_{\rm{A}}} - {T_{\rm{B}}}} \right)R\\\end{array}$

Substituting $I\alpha$ for $\tau$ in the equation $\tau = \left( {{T_{\rm{A}}} - {T_{\rm{B}}}} \right)R$

$I\alpha=\left( {{T_{\rm{A}}} - {T_{\rm{B}}}} \right)R$

$\frac{I\alpha}{R} =\left {{T_{\rm{A}}} - {T_{\rm{B}}}} \right$

The angular acceleration of the wheel is given by $\alpha = \frac{a}{R}$

where a is the linear acceleration

Substituting $\frac{a}{R}$ for $\alpha$ into equation

$\frac{I\alpha}{R} =\left {{T_{\rm{A}}} - {T_{\rm{B}}}} \right$ we obtain

$\frac{Ia}{R^2} =\left {{T_{\rm{A}}} - {T_{\rm{B}}}} \right$

Net force on block A is

${F_{\rm{A}}} = {m_{\rm{A}}}g - {T_{\rm{A}}}$

Net force on block B is

${F_{\rm{B}}} = {T_{\rm{B}}} - {m_{\rm{B}}}g$

Where g is acceleration due to gravity

Substituting ${m_{\rm{B}}}a$ and ${m_{\rm{A}}}a$ for ${F_{\rm{B}}}$ and ${F_{\rm{A}}}$ respectively into equation $\frac{Ia}{R^2} =\left {{T_{\rm{A}}} - {T_{\rm{B}}}} \right$ and making a the subject we obtain

$\begin{array}{c}\\{m_{\rm{A}}}g - {m_{\rm{A}}}a - \left( {{m_{\rm{B}}}g + {m_{\rm{B}}}a} \right) = \frac{{Ia}}{{{R^2}}}\\\\\left( {{m_{\rm{A}}} - {m_{\rm{B}}}} \right)g - \left( {{m_{\rm{A}}} + {m_{\rm{B}}}} \right)a = \frac{{Ia}}{{{R^2}}}\\\\\left( {{m_{\rm{A}}} + {m_{\rm{B}}} + \frac{I}{{{R^2}}}} \right)a = \left( {{m_{\rm{A}}} - {m_{\rm{B}}}} \right)g\\\\a = \frac{{\left( {{m_{\rm{A}}} - {m_{\rm{B}}}} \right)g}}{{\left( {{m_{\rm{A}}} + {m_{\rm{B}}} + \frac{I}{{{R^2}}}} \right)}}\\\end{array}$

Since ${m_{\rm{B}}}$ = 3kg and ${m_{\rm{B}}}$ = 7kg

g=9.81 and R=0.12m, I=0.22 ${\rm{ kg}} \cdot {{\rm{m}}^2}$

Substituting these we obtain

$a = \frac{{\left( {{m_{\rm{A}}} - {m_{\rm{B}}}} \right)g}}{{\left( {{m_{\rm{A}}} + {m_{\rm{B}}} + \frac{I}{{{R^2}}}} \right)}}$

$\begin{array}{c}\\a = \frac{{\left( {7{\rm{ kg}} - 3{\rm{ kg}}} \right)\left( {9.81{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}} \right)}}{{\left( {7{\rm{ kg}} + 3{\rm{ kg}} + \frac{{0.22{\rm{ kg/}}{{\rm{m}}^2}}}{{{{\left( {0.120{\rm{ m}}} \right)}^2}}}} \right)}}\\\\ = 1.55235{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}\\\end{array}$

Therefore, the linear acceleration of block A is 1.55 ${\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}$

(B)

For block B

${a_{\rm{B}}} = {a_{\rm{A}}}$

Therefore, the acceleration of both blocks A and B are same

1.55 ${\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}$

(C)

The angular acceleration is $\alpha = \frac{a}{R}$

$\begin{array}{c}\\\alpha = \frac{{1.55{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}}}{{0.120{\rm{ m}}}}\\\\ = 12.92{\rm{ rad/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}\\\end{array}$

(D)

Tension on left side of cord is calculated using

$\begin{array}{c}\\{T_{\rm{B}}} = {m_{\rm{B}}}g + {m_{\rm{B}}}a\\\\ = {m_{\rm{B}}}\left( {g + a} \right)\\\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{c}\\{T_{\rm{B}}} = \left( {3{\rm{ kg}}} \right)\left( {9.81{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2} + 1.55{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}} \right)\\\\ = 34.08{\rm{ N}}\\\end{array}$

(E)

Tension on right side of cord is calculated using

$\begin{array}{c}\\{T_{\rm{A}}} = {m_{\rm{A}}}g - {m_{\rm{A}}}a\\\\ = {m_{\rm{A}}}\left( {g - a} \right)\\\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{c}\\{T_{\rm{A}}} = \left( {7{\rm{ kg}}} \right)\left( {9.81{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2} – 1.55{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}} \right)\\\\ = 57.82{\rm{ N}}\\\end{array}$
