The tension force being supplied by the rope is 245 N.

<h3>What is tension force?</h3>

Tension force is the force exerted on a rope or cord due to the weight of an object suspended from it.

The tension force on the given rope due to the weight of the lamp hanging from the rope is calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion as shown below;

T = mg

where;

m is the mass = 25 kg
g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

T = 25 x 9.8

T = 245 N

Thus, the tension force being supplied by the rope is 245 N.

You have a pulley 10.4 cm in diameter and with a mass of 2.3 kg. You get to wondering whether the pulley is uniform. That is, is

madreJ [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Diameter of Pulley=10.4 cm

mass of Pulley(m)=2.3 kg

mass of book $(m_0)=1.7 kg$

height(h)=1 m

time taken=0.64 s

$h=ut+frac{at^2}{2}$

$1=0+\frac{a(0.64)^2}{2}$

$a=4.88 m/s^2and [tex]a=\alpha r$

where $\alpha$ is angular acceleration of pulley

$4.88=\alpha \times 5.2\times 10^{-2}$

$\alpha =93.84 rad/s^2$

And Tension in Rope

$T=m(g-a)$

$T=1.7\times (9.8-4.88)$

T=8.364 N

and Tension will provide Torque

$T\times r=I\cdot \alpha$

$8.364\times 5.2\times 10^{-2}=I\times 93.84$

$I=0.463\times 10^{-2} kg-m^2$

$I_{original}=\frac{mr^2}{2}=0.31\times 10^{-2}kg-m^2$

Thus mass is uniformly distributed or some more towards periphery of Pulley

A cord is used to vertically lower an initially stationary block of mass M = 3.6 kg at a constant downward acceleration of g/7.

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

(a) $W_c=127.008 J$

(b) $W_g=148.176 J$

(c) K.E. = 21.168 J

(d) $v=3.4293m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of a block, M = 3.6 kg

initial velocity of the block, $u=0 m.s^{-1}$

constant downward acceleration, $a_d= \frac{g}{7}$

$\Rightarrow$ That a constant upward acceleration of $\frac{6g}{7}$ is applied in the presence of gravity.

∴ $a=- \frac{6g}{7}$

height through which the block falls, d = 4.2 m

(a)

Force by the cord on the block,

$F_c= M\times a$

$F_c=3.6\times (-6)\times\frac{9.8}{7}$

$F_c=-30.24 N$

∴Work by the cord on the block,

$W_c= F_c\times d$

$W_c= -30.24\times 4.2$

We take -ve sign because the direction of force and the displacement are opposite to each other.

$W_c=-127.008 J$

(b)

Force on the block due to gravity:

$F_g= M.g$

∵the gravity is naturally a constant and we cannot change it

$F_g=3.6\times 9.8$

$F_g=35.28 N$

∴Work by the gravity on the block,

$W_g=F_g\times d$

$W_g=35.28\times 4.2$

$W_g=148.176 J$

(c)

Kinetic energy of the block will be equal to the net work done i.e. sum of the two works.

mathematically:

$K.E.= W_g+W_c$

$K.E.=148.176-127.008$

K.E. = 21.168 J

(d)

From the equation of motion:

$v^2=u^2+2a_d\times d$

putting the respective values:

$v=\sqrt{0^2+2\times \frac{9.8}{7}\times 4.2 }$

$v=3.4293m.s^{-1}$ is the speed when the block has fallen 4.2 meters.

A 0.2 kg block sliding on a horizontal table slows down from 25 m/s to 20 m/s. How much energy does the block lose due to fricti

Papessa [141]

Answer:

the kinetic energy lost due to friction is 22.5 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the block, m = 0.2 kg

initial velocity of the block, u = 25 m/s

final velocity of the block, v = 20 m/s

The kinetic energy lost due to friction is calculated as;

$\Delta K.E= K.E_f - K.E_i\\\\\Delta K.E= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - \frac{1}{2}mu^2\\\\\Delta K.E= \frac{1}{2}m(v^2 -u^2)\\\\\Delta K.E= \frac{1}{2} \times 0.2 (20^2 - 25^2)\\\\\Delta K.E= -22.5 \ J$

Therefore, the kinetic energy lost due to friction is 22.5 J
