A mine car (mass=390 kg) rolls at a speed of 0.50 m/s on a horizontal track, as the drawing shows. A 250-kg chunk of coal has a
Nady [450]

Answer:

v=0.60 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m ₁= 390 kg ,u ₁= 0.5 m/s

m₂ = 250 kg ,u₂ = 0.76 m/s

As we know that if there is no any external force on the system the total linear momentum of the system will be conserve.

Pi = Pf

m ₁u ₁+m₂u₂ = (m₂ + m ₁ ) v

Now putting the values in the above equation

390 x 0.5 + 250 x 0.76 = (390 + 250 ) v

v=\dfrac{390\times 0.5+250\times 0.76}{390+250}\ m/s

v=0.60 m/s

Therefore the velocity of the system will be 0.6 m/s.

The wheel having a mass of 100 kg and a radius of gyration about the z axis of kz=300mm, rests on the smooth horizontal plane.a.
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

a) 20 rad/s

b) 6 m/s

Explanation:

b) Force acting on the wheel is 200 N

mass of the wheel is 100 kg

From Newton's second law of motion, F = m × a

Where F is the net force acting on the body

m is mass of the body

a is the acceleration of the body

By substituting the values we get, a = 2 m/s²

As acceleration is constant, we can use the below formula for calculating the final velocity of the object

v = u + a × t

Where v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time taken

u = 0 (∵ it starts from rest)

By substituting the values we get

v = 0 + 2 × 3 = 6 m/s

∴ Speed of center of mass after 3 seconds = 6 m/s

a) As the wheel rotates about z-axis, radius of gyration will be the radius of wheel

∴ Radius of the wheel = 300 mm

Torque acting on the wheel about axis of rotation = 300 mm × 200 N =

60 N·m

Torque = (Moment of inertia) × (angular acceleration)

Assuming that the mass of spokes of the wheel to be negligible,

Moment of inertia of the wheel about axis of rotation = 100 × 300² × 10^{-6} = 9 kg·m²

Then,

60 = 9 × (angular acceleration)

∴ angular acceleration ≈ 6·67 rad/s²

As angular acceleration of the wheel is constant, we can use the below formula for calculation of final angular speed

w_{f} = w_{i} + α × t

Where

w_{f} is the final angular velocity

w_{i} is the initial angular velocity

α is the angular acceleration

t is the time taken

w_{i} is 0 (∵ initially it starts from rest)

By substituting the values we get

w_{f} = 6·67 × 3 = 20 rad/s

∴ Angular velocity of the wheel after three seconds = 20 rad/s

A certain 60.0 Hz AC power line radiates an electromagnetic wave having a maximum electric field strength of 11.6 kV/m.
yuradex [85]

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of the power line, f = 6 Hz

Value of maximum electric field strength of 11.6 kV/m

(a) The wavelength of this very low frequency electromagnetic wave is given by using relation as :

c=f\lambda

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8\ m/s}{60\ Hz}

\lambda=5\times 10^6\ m

(b) As its can be seen that the wavelength of this wave is very high. It shows that it is a radio wave.

(c) The relation between the maximum magnetic field strength and maximum electric field strength is given by :

B_0=\dfrac{E_0}{c}\\\\B_0=\dfrac{11.6\times 10^3}{3\times 10^8}\\\\B_0=3.86\times 10^{-5}\ T

So, the maximum magnetic field strength is 3.86\times 10^{-5}\ T.

A stretched spring has 5184 J of elastic potential energy and a spring constant of 16,200 N/m. What is the displacement of the s
yawa3891 [41]

Hello!

A stretched spring has 5184 J of elastic potential energy and a spring constant of 16,200 N/m. What is the displacement of the spring ?

Data:

E_{pe}\:(elastic\:potential\:energy) = 5184\:J

K\:(constant) = 16200\:N/m

x\:(displacement) =\:?

For a spring (or an elastic), the elastic potential energy is calculated by the following expression:

E_{pe} = \dfrac{k*x^2}{2}

Where k represents the elastic constant of the spring (or elastic) and x the deformation or displacement suffered by the spring.

Solving:  

E_{pe} = \dfrac{k*x^2}{2}

5184 = \dfrac{16200*x^2}{2}

5184*2 = 16200*x^2

10368 = 16200\:x^2

16200\:x^2 = 10368

x^{2} = \dfrac{10368}{16200}

x^{2} = 0.64

x = \sqrt{0.64}

\boxed{\boxed{x = 0.8\:m}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

Answer:  

The displacement of the spring = 0.8 m
