A toy cannon uses a spring to project a 5.24-g soft rubber ball. The spring is originally compressed by 5.01 cm and has a force

salantis [7]

Answer:

Speed will be equal to 1.40 m/sec

Explanation:

Mass of the rubber ball m = 5.24 kg = 0.00524 kg

Spring is compressed by 5.01 cm

So x = 5.01 cm = 0.0501 m

Spring constant k = 8.08 N/m

Frictional force f = 0.031 N

Distance moved by ball d = 15.8 cm = 0.158 m

Energy gained by spring

$KE=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 8.08\times 0.0501^2=0.0101J$

Energy lost due to friction

$W=Fd=0.031\times 0.158=0.0048J$

So remained energy to move the ball = 0.0101 - 0.0048 = 0.0052 J

This energy will be kinetic energy

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=0.0052$

$\frac{1}{2}\times 0.00524\times v^2=0.0052$

v = 1.40 m/sec

In the winter activity of tubing, riders slide down snow covered slopes while sitting on large inflated rubber tubes. To get to

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

17304 J

Explanation:

Complete statement of the question is :

In the winter activity of tubing, riders slide down snow covered slopes while sitting on large inflated rubber tubes. To get to the top of the slope, a rider and his tube, with a total mass of 84 kg , are pulled at a constant speed by a tow rope that maintains a constant tension of 350 N .

Part A

How much thermal energy is created in the slope and the tube during the ascent of a 30-m-high, 120-m-long slope?

Solution :

$T$ = tension force in the tow rope = 350 N

$L$ = length of the incline surface = 120 m

$W_{t}$ = work done by tension force = ?

The tension force acts parallel to incline surface, hence work done by tension force is given as

$W_{t} = T L\\W_{t} = (350) (120)\\W_{t} = 42000 J$

$h$ = height gained by the rider = 30 m

$m$ = total mass of rider and tube = 84 kg

Potential energy gained is given as

$U = mgh\\U = (84) (9.8) (30)\\U = 24696 J$

$Q$ = Thermal energy created

Using conservation of energy

$Q = W_{t} - U\\Q = 42000 - 24696\\Q = 17304 J$

If a car is taveling with a speed 6 and comes to a curve in a flat road with radius ???? 13.5 m, what is the minumum value the c

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

$\mu_s \geq 0.27$

Explanation:

The centripetal force acting on the car must be equal to mv²/R, where m is the mass of the car, v its speed and R the radius of the curve. Since the only force acting on the car that is in the direction of the center of the circle is the frictional force, we have by the Newton's Second Law:

$f_s=\frac{mv^{2}}{R}$

But we know that:

$f_s\leq \mu_s N$

And the normal force is given by the sum of the forces in the vertical direction:

$N-mg=0 \implies N=mg$

Finally, we have:

$f_s=\frac{mv^{2}}{R} \leq \mu_s mg\\\\\implies \mu_s\geq \frac{v^{2}}{gR} \\\\\mu_s\geq \frac{(6\frac{m}{s}) ^{2}}{(9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}})(13.5m) }\\\\\mu_s\geq0.27$

So, the minimum value for the coefficient of friction is 0.27.
