A 2:2 kg toy train is con ned to roll along a straight, frictionless track parallel to the x-axis. The train starts at the origin moving at a speed of 1:6m=s in the +x direction, and continues until it reaches a position 7:5m down the track from where it started. During its journey, it experiences a force pointing in the same direction as the vector 0:6 +0:8 , with magnitude initially 2:8N and decreasing linearly with its x-position to 0N when the train has finished its journey.

Required:
a. Calculate the work done by this force over the entire journey of the train.
b. Find the speed of the train at the end of its journey.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 10.51 J

b) 3.48 m/s

Explanation:

Given data :

mass of train ( M ) = 2.2 kg

Given initial velocity ( u ) = 1.6 m/s

a) calculating work done by the force over the journey of the train

F = mx + b  ------ ( 1 )

m = slope  = ( Δ f / Δ x ) = 2.8 / -7.5 = - 0.373 N/m

x = distance travelled on the x axis by the train = 7.5 m

F = force experienced by the train = 2.8 N

x = 0

∴ b = 2.8

hence equation 1 can be written as

F = ( -0.373) x + 2.8   ----- ( 2 )

hence to determine the work done by the force

W   = [tex]\int\limits^7_0 { ( -0.373) x + 2.8 )} \, dx[/tex]     Note:  the limits are actually 7.5 and 0

∴ W ( work done ) = -10.49 + 21 = 10.51 J

b) calculate the speed of the train at the end of its journey

we will apply the work energy theorem

W = 1/2 m*v^2  -  1/2 m*u^2

∴ V^2 = 2 / M ( W + 1/2 M*u^2 )  ( input values into equation )

 V^2 = 12.11

hence V = 3.48 m/s

A radioactive material produces 1160 decays per minute at one time, and 4.0 h later produces 170 decays per minute. whats the half life

Answers

Answer:

Half life is 3.23 hours

Explanation:

Given

Decay rate at starting = 1160 decays per minute

Decay rate after 4 hours = 170 decays per minute

As we know know

[tex]N = N_0 *e ^{\Lambda *T}[/tex]

Substituting the given values, we get -

[tex]170 = 1160 *e ^{-4*\Lambda}\\0.1465 = e ^{-4*\Lambda}\\-0.834 = -4 * \Lambda\\\Lambda = 0.834/4\\\Lambda = 0.2085[/tex]

Also

[tex]t_{1/2} = \frac{ln2}{\Lambda}[/tex]

Substituting the given values we get -

[tex]t_{1/2} = =0.693/0.2085\\= 3.23[/tex]hours

If a charge concentration of 25.0 C is above the plane at a height of 3000 m within the cloud and a charge concentration of -40.0 C is at height 850 m, what is the electric field at the aircraft

Answers

Answer:

[tex]523269.9\ \text{N/m}[/tex]

Explanation:

q = Charge

[tex]q_1=25\ \text{C}[/tex]

[tex]r_1=3000\ \text{m}[/tex]

[tex]q_2=40\ \text{C}[/tex]

A ball is attached to one end of a wire, the other end being fastened to the ceiling. The wire is held horizontal, and the ball is released from rest. It swings downward and strikes a block initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. Air resistance is negligible, and the collision is elastic. The masses of the ball and block are, respectively, 1.48 kg and 2.77 kg, and the length of the wire is 1.11 m. Find the velocity of the ball just after the collision.

Answers

Answer: Velocity of the ball just after the collision is -1.414 m/s.

Explanation:

As energy is conserved in a reaction so here, energy before collision will be equal to the energy after collision.

[tex]E_{before} = mgh = E_{after} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{o}^{2}[/tex]

where,

m = mass

g = gravitational energy = [tex]9.8 m/s^{2}[/tex]

h = height or length

[tex]v_{o}[/tex] = initial velocity

Also here, height is the length of wire. Let the height be denoted by 'L'. Therefore,

[tex]\frac{1}{2}mv_{o}^{2} = mgL\\v_{o}^{2} = 2gL\\v_{o} = \sqrt{2gL}\\= \sqrt{2 \times 9.8 m/s^{2} \times 1.11 m}\\= 4.66 m/s[/tex]

Formula used to calculate velocity after the collision is as follows.

[tex]v_{f ball} = v_{o} [\frac{m_{ball} - m_{block}}{m_{ball} + m_{block}}][/tex]

where,

[tex]v_{f ball}[/tex] = final velocity of ball after collision

[tex]m_{ball}[/tex] = masses of ball

[tex]m_{block}[/tex] = masses of block

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

[tex]v_{f ball} = v_{o} [\frac{m_{ball} - m_{block}}{m_{ball} + m_{block}}]\\= 4.66 m/s [\frac{1.48 kg - 2.77 kg}{1.48 kg + 2.77 kg}]\\= 4.66 m/s \times (-0.303)\\= -1.414 m/s[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that velocity of the ball just after the collision is -1.414 m/s.

If the acceleration of the body is towards the center, what is the direction of the unbalanced force ? Using a complete sentence , describe the direction of the net force that causes the body to travel in a circle at a constant speed.

Answers

Accelerating objects are changing their velocity. Velocity is often thought of as an object's speed with a direction. Thus, objects which are accelerating are either changing their speed or changing their direction. They are either speeding up, slowing down or changing directions. Changing the velocity in any one of these three ways would be an example of an accelerated motion.

An ideal horizontal spring-mass system has a mass of 1.0 kg and a spring with constant 78 N/m. It oscillates with a period of 0.71 seconds. When this same spring-mass system oscillates vertically instead, the period is _______ seconds. Enter 2 significant figures (a total of three digits) and use g = 10.0 m/s2 if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

T = 0.71 seconds

Explanation:

Given data:

mass m = 1Kg, spring constant K = 78 N/m, time period of oscillation T = 0.71 seconds.

We have to calculate time period when this same spring-mass system oscillates vertically.

As we know

[tex]T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{K} }[/tex]

This relation of time period is true under every orientation of the spring-mass system, whether horizontal, vertical, angled or inclined. Therefore, time period of the same spring-mass system oscillating  vertically too remains the same.

Therefore, T = 0.71 seconds

A rabbit dashes across a field in a zig-zag pattern trying to outrun a fox. If the rabbit’s average is speed is 9.8 m/s it reaches the hole in 8.5 s what is the total distance it ran?

Answers

Answer:

83.3 m

Explanation:

From the question,

Applying on of the formula of velocity

V = d/t.................. Equation 1

Where V = average velocity, d = distance, t = time.

What is a Planet?

An enormous, spherical celestial object known as a planet is neither a star nor its remains. The nebular hypothesis, which states how an interstellar cloud falls out of a nebula to produce a young protostar encircled by a protoplanetary disk, is now the best explanation for planet formation.

By gradually accumulating material under the influence of gravity, or accretion, planets develop in this disk.

The rocky planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, as well as the giant planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, make up the Solar System's minimum number of eight planets. These planets all revolve around axes that are inclined relative to their respective polar axes.

For the radioactive dating process, a material is needed that has a known average life time and that we can know the amount of material at a given moment,

In the case of carbon 14 (14C), living beings stop capturing it from the air and plants when they die, so knowing the amount they currently have, it is possible to calculate the time in which they stopped absorbing, but the life time average is 5730 years, the maximum time that can be used is up to about 10 average visa times

To analyze extra samples have high half-life times

* the decay of uranium ending in lead

* the decay of potassium (40K) that becomes argon T1 / 2 = 1,251 10⁹ years

* the decay of rubidium (87Ru) which becomes strontium T1 / 2 = 4.92 10¹⁰ years

the pygmy shrew has an average mass of 2.0 g if 49 of these shrew are placed on a spring scale with a spring constant of 24 N/m , what is the springs displacement

Answers

Answer:

Spring's displacement, x = -0.04 meters.

Explanation:

Let the spring's displacement be x.

Given the following data;

Mass of each shrew, m = 2.0 g to kilograms = 2/1000 = 0.002 kg

Number of shrews, n = 49

Spring constant, k = 24 N/m

We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8 m/s².

To find the spring's displacement;

At equilibrium position:

Fnet = Felastic + Fg = 0

But, Felastic = -kx

Total mass, Mt = nm

Fg = -Mt = -nmg

-kx -nmg = 0

Rearranging, we have;

kx = -nmg

Making x the subject of formula, we have;

[tex] x = \frac {-nmg}{k} [/tex]

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex] x = \frac {-49*0.002*9.8}{24} [/tex]

[tex] x = \frac {-0.9604}{24} [/tex]

x = -0.04 m

Therefore, the spring's displacement is -0.04 meters.
