A rope passes over a fixed sheave with both ends hanging straight down. The coefficient of friction between the rope and sheave

Oliga [24]

Answer:3.51

Explanation:

Given

Coefficient of Friction $\mu =0.4$

Consider a small element at an angle \theta having an angle of $d\theta$

Normal Force $=T\times \frac{d\theta }{2}+(T+dT)\cdot \frac{d\theta }{2}$

$N=T\cdot d\theta$

Friction $f=\mu \times Normal\ Reaction$

$f=\mu \cdot N$

and $T+dT-T=f=\mu Td\theta$

$dT=\mu Td\theta$

$\frac{dT}{T}=\mu d\theta$

$\int_{T_2}^{T_1}\frac{dT}{T}=\int_{0}^{\pi }\mu d\theta$

$\frac{T_2}{T_1}=e^{\mu \pi}$

$\frac{T_2}{T_1}=e^{0.4\times \pi }$

$\frac{T_2}{T_1}==e^{1.256}$

$\frac{T_2}{T_1}=3.51$

If we keep on applying force on a material object, can it gain speed of light?

Xelga [282]

Answer:

As an object moves faster, its mass increases. ... Because masses approach infinity with increasing speed, it is impossible to accelerate a material object to (or past) the speed of light. To do so would require an infinite force.

A light bulb emits light uniformly in all directions. The average emitted power is 150.0 W. At a distance of 5 m from the bulb,

beks73 [17]

Answer:

a) 0.477 W/m²

b) 13.407 N/C

c) 18.96 N/C

Explanation:

P = Power = 150 W

r = Distance = 5 m

ε₀ = Permittivity of space = 8.854×10⁻¹² F/m

a) Average intensity

$\bar{S}=\frac{P}{A}\\\Rightarrow \bar{S}=\frac{150}{4\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow \bar{S}=\frac{150}{4\pi 5^2}\\\Rightarrow \bar{S}=0.477\ W/m^2$

∴ Average intensity is 0.477 W/m²

b) Rms value

$\bar{S}=c\epsilon_0E_{rms}^2\\\Rightarrow E_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{\bar{S}}{c\epsilon_0}}\\\Rightarrow E_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{\bar{0.477}}{3\times 10^8\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}}}\\\Rightarrow E_{rms}=13.407\ N/C$

∴ Rms value of the electric field is 13.407 N/C

c) Peak value

$E_0=\sqrt 2E_{rms}\\\Rightarrow E_0=\sqrt 2\times 13.407\\\Rightarrow E_0=18.96\ N/C$

∴ Peak value of the electric field is 18.96 N/C
