1. What is work done in holding a 15kg suitcase while waiting for a bus for 15 minutes?

Physics

Tems11 [23]3 years ago
6 0
Work is (force applied) x (distance through which the force moves).

Since the suitcase doesn't move up or down during the 15 minutes,
no work is done ... zero, zip, nada ... according to the real Physics
definition of 'work'.

A 0.810 kg ball falls 2.5m. How much work does the force of gravity do on the ball?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

W = 19.845 J

Explanation:

Work is defined as W = Fdcos\theta, where F is the force exerted and d is the distance. Because the direction the ball is falling is the same direction as the force itself, \theta = 0 deg, and since cos(0) = 1, this equation is equivalent to W = Fd. In this case, the force exerted is the weight force, which is equivalent to m * g. Substituting you get:

W = mgd = 0.810 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 2.5m

W = 19.845 J

A spherical shell is rolling without slipping at constant speed on a level floor. What percentage of the shell's total kinetic e
IgorC [24]

Answer:

41.667 per cent of the total kinetic energy is translational kinetic energy.

Explanation:

As the spherical shell is rolling without slipping at constant speed, the system can be considered as conservative due to the absence of non-conservative forces (i.e. drag, friction) and energy equation can be expressed only by the Principle of Energy Conservation, whose total energy is equal to the sum of rotational and translational kinetic energies. That is to say:

E = K_{t} + K_{r}

Where:

E - Total energy, measured in joules.

K_{r} - Rotational kinetic energy, measured in joules.

K_{t} - Translational kinetic energy, measured in joules.

The spherical shell can be considered as a rigid body, since there is no information of any deformation due to the motion. Then, rotational and translational components of kinetic energy are described by the following equations:

Rotational kinetic energy

K_{r} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot I_{g}\cdot \omega^{2}

Translational kinetic energy

K_{t} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2}

Where:

I_{g} - Moment of inertia of the spherical shell with respect to its center of mass, measured in kg\cdot m^{2}.

\omega - Angular speed of the spherical shell, measured in radians per second.

R - Radius of the spherical shell, measured in meters.

After replacing each component and simplifying algebraically, the total energy of the spherical shell is equal to:

E = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (I_{g} + m\cdot R^{2})\cdot \omega^{2}

In addition, the moment of inertia of a spherical shell is equal to:

I_{g} = \frac{2}{3}\cdot m\cdot R^{2}

Then, total energy is reduced to this expression:

E = \frac{5}{6}\cdot m \cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2}

The fraction of the total kinetic energy that is translational in percentage is given by the following expression:

\%K_{t} = \frac{K_{t}}{E}\times 100\,\%

\%K_{t} = \frac{\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2} }{\frac{5}{6}\cdot m \cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2} } \times 100\,\%

\%K_{t} = \frac{5}{12}\times 100\,\%

\%K_{t} = 41.667\,\%

41.667 per cent of the total kinetic energy is translational kinetic energy.
