How can the direction of a tensional force be changed without diminishing the force?

1 answer:

4 0

Given what we know, we can confirm that the tensional force of a system can in theory be changed without diminishing its force through the use of an ideal pulley.

<h3>What is an ideal pulley?</h3>

A pulley is a small wheel through which a string or chain is run.
These are used in order to change the direction of a force.
An ideal pulley would be one in which there is no friction and the pulley itself would have no mass.
Therefore, the force would be able to change directions without giving part of its force to the pulley system.

Therefore, we can confirm that the only known way to change the direction of a force without diminishing its value would be through the use of a frictionless and massless pulley system otherwise known as an ideal pulley.

Long Jump: inital center of mass height of 1.08 m, final center of mass height of 0.42 m, projection velocity of 8.7 m/s, projec

sammy [17]

Answer:

1) The maximum jump height is reached at A. $0.337s$

2) The maximum center of mass height off of the ground is B. $1.64m$

3) The time of flight is C. $0.834s$

4) The distance of jump is B. $7.49m$

Explanation:

First of all we need to decompose velocity in its rectangular components, so

$v_{xi}=8.7m/s(cos 22.3\°)=8.05m/s= constant\\v_{yi}=8.7m/s(sin 22.3\°)=3.3m/s$

1) We use, $v_{fy}=v_{iy}-gt$ , as we clear it for $t$ and using the fact that $v_{fy}=0$ at max height, we obtain $t=\frac{v_{iy}}{g} =\frac{3.3m/s}{9,8m/s^{2}} =0.337s$

2) We can use the formula $y_{max}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}$ for $t=0.337s$ , so

$y_{max}=1.08m+(3.3m/s)(0.337s)-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})(0.337)^{2}}{2}=1.64m$

3) We can use the formula $y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}$ , to find total time of fligth, so $0.42=1.08+3.3t-\frac{(9.8)t^{2}}{2}\\0=-4.9t^{2}+3.3t+0.66$ , as it is a second-grade polynomial, we find that its positive root is $t=0.834s$

4) Finally, we use $x=v_{x}t=8.05m/s(0.834s)=6.71m$ , as it has an additional displacement of $0.77m$ due the leg extension we obtain,

$x=6.71m+0.77m=7.48m$ , aprox $x=7.49m$

(I) A novice skier, starting from rest, slides down an icy frictionless 8.0° incline whose vertical height is 105 m. How fast is

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

v = 45.37 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

angle of inclination = 8.0°

Vertical height, H = 105 m

Initial K.E. = 0 J

Initial P.E. = m g H

Final PE = 0 J

Final KE = $\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Using Conservation of energy

$KE_i + PE_i + KE_f + PE_f$

$0 + m g H = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + 0$

$v = \sqrt{2gH}$

$v = \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 105}$

v = 45.37 m/s

Hence, speed of the skier at the bottom is equal to v = 45.37 m/s

A student examines a 20-meter long rectangular stream channel and takes the following measurements: width of stream = 4 meters,

Scrat [10]

Answer:

The discharge of the stream at this location is 40 cubic meters per second.

Explanation:

The discharge is the volume flow rate of the water in the stream. For this purpose we can use the following formula:

Discharge = Volume Flow Rate = (Cross-Sectional Area)(Velocity of Stream)

Volume Flow Rate = (Width of Stream)(Depth of Stream)(Velocity of Stream)

Volume Flow Rate = (4 meters)(2 meters)(5 meters per second)

<u>Volume Flow Rate = 40 cubic meters per second</u>

Therefore, the discharge of the stream at this location is found to be <u>40 cubic meters per second</u>

This result shows that 40 cubic meters volume of water passes or discharges through this point in a time of one second. Hence, this is called the volume flow rate or the discharge of the stream.
