Sterling Archer, despite failing repeatedly at pole-vaulting, is determined to master the skill. He is holding a vaulting pole p

arallel to the ground. The pole is 5 m long. Archer grips the pole with his right hand 10 cm from the top end of the pole and with his left hand 1 m from the top end of the pole. Although the pole is quite light (its mass is only 2.5 kg), the forces that Archer must exert on the pole to maintain it in this position are quite large. How large are they?

Answer:

left hand: 133 N upward

right hand: 83N downward

Explanation:

10 cm = 0.1m

Let g = 10m/s2. The pole gravity force would be F_p = 5*10 = 50 N. Suppose the pole mass distribution is uniform, this means the center of mass is at its geometric center, aka 5/2 = 2.5m from the top end.

In order for the system to stay balanced, the total net force and net moment must be 0

F_L + F_R = F_p = 50 N where F_L, F_R are the forces exerted by his left and right hand, respectively.

We will pick his right hand (0.1 m from the top end) as moment pivot point. The total moment generated by pole gravity and his left hand must be 0

Distance (or moment arm length) from pole center to his right hand is R_p = 2.5 – 0.1 = 2.4 m

Moment generated by gravity around his right hand is: M_p = F_pR_p = 50*2.4 = 120 Nm counter-clockwise

Distance (or moment arm length) from left hand to his right hand is R_L = 1 – 0.1 = 0.9 m

Moment generated by force from his left hand around his right hand is: M_L = F_LR_L = 1.9F_L Nm clockwise

Since the total moment must be 0, the clockwised-direction moment = counterclockwised-direction moment:

0.9F_L = 120

F_L = 120 / 0.9 = 133 N upward

Therefore, the force exerted by his right hand must be 50 – 133 = -83 N or 83N downward

Coulomb's law states that the force F of attraction between two oppositely charged particles varies jointly as the magnitude of
Mars2501 [29]

Answer: Force F will be one-sixteenth of the new force when the charges are doubled and distance halved

Explanation:

Let the charges be q1 and q2 and the distance between the charges be 'd'

Mathematical representation of coulombs law will be;

F1=kq1q2/d²...(1)

Where k is the electrostatic constant.

If q1 and q2 is doubled and the distance halved, we will have;

F2 = k(2q1)(2q2)/(d/2)²

F2 = 4kq1q2/(d²/4)

F2 = 16kq1q2/d²...(2)

Dividing equation 1 by 2

F1/F2 = kq1q2/d² ÷ 16kq1q2/d²

F1/F2 = kq1q2/d² × d²/16kq1q2

F1/F2 = 1/16

F1 = 1/16F2

This shows that the force F will be one-sixteenth of the new force when the charges are doubled and distance halved

Answer:

(3) The period of the satellite is independent of its mass, an increase in the mass of the satellite will not affect its period around the Earth.

(4) he gravitational force between the Sun and Neptune is 6.75 x 10²⁰ N

Explanation:

(3) The period of a satellite is given as;

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{r^3}{GM} }

where;

T is the period of the satellite

M is mass of Earth

r is the radius of the orbit

Thus, the period of the satellite is independent of its mass, an increase in the mass of the satellite will not affect its period around the Earth.

 

(4)

Given;

mass of the ball, m₁ = 1.99 x 10⁴⁰ kg

mass of Neptune, m₂ = 1.03 x 10²⁶ kg

mass of Sun, m₃ = 1.99 x 10³⁰ kg

distance between the Sun and Neptune, r = 4.5 x 10¹² m

The gravitational force between the Sun and Neptune is calculated as;

F_g = \frac{Gm_2m_3}{r^2} \\\\F_g = \frac{6.67\times 10^{-11} \times 1.03 \times 10^{26}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}}{(4.5\times 10^{12})^2} \\\\F_g = 6.751 \times 10^{20} \ N
