Using a rope that will snap if the tension in it exceeds 356 N, you need to lower a bundle of old roofing material weighing 478

N from a point 7.50 m above the ground. (a) What magnitude of the bundle's acceleration will put the rope on the verge of snapping? (b) At that acceleration, with what speed would the bundle hit the ground?

Answer:

a) 2.5 m/s²

b) 6.12 m/s

Explanation:

Tension of rope = T = 356N

Weight of material = W = 478 N

Distance from the ground = s = 7.5 m

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.81 m/s²

Mass of material = m = 478/9.81 = 48.72

Final velocity before the bundle hits the ground = v

Initial velocity = u = 0

Acceleration experienced by the material when being lowered = a

a) W-T = ma

⇒478-356 = 48.72×a

\Rightarrow \frac{122}{48.72} = a

⇒a = 2.5 m/s²

∴ Acceleration achieved by the material is 2.5 m/s²

b) v²-u² = 2as

⇒v²-0 = 2×2.5×7.5

⇒v² = 37.5

⇒v = 6.12 m/s

∴ Velocity of the material before hitting the ground is 6.12 m/s

A ball is thrown straight up with enough speed so that it is in the air for several seconds. Assume the positive direction is up
Andrew [12]

Answer:

a) v= 0 m/s b) v= 6.86 m/s

Explanation:

a) When the ball reaches to its highest point, under the influence of gravity, before starting to fall down, it momentarily comes to an stop (this is needed prior to change direction in any movement), so, applying the definition of acceleration, and replacing the acceleration a by g, we have:

vf = v₀ - g*t (1)

The minus sign means that the acceleration due to gravity is always downward, so if we assume that the positive direction is upwards it must be negative.

At the highest point, vf= 0.

b) Prior to solve this point, we need to know which is the time when the ball reaches to its highest point.

As we know vf=0, we can solve (1) for t, as follows:

th = v₀/g

Now, for a time that is 0.7 s before this time, applying the acceleration definition and solving for v again, we have:

v = v₀ -(g *(th-0.7 s)), but th= v₀/g, so we get:

v= v₀ -g((v₀/g)-0.7 s) = v₀ - v₀ + g*0.7 s

⇒ v=g*0.7 s = 9.8 m/s²*0.7 s

⇒ v = 6.86 m/s
