An inventive child wants to reach an apple in a tree without climbing the tree. Sitting in a chair connected to a rope that passes over a frictionless pulley, the child pulls on the loose end of the rope with such a force that the spring scale reads 250 N. The child’s true weight is 320 N, and the chair weighs 160 N. (a) Show that the acceleration of the system is upward and find its magnitude. (b) Find the force the child exerts on the chair.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) 0.42 m/s²

(b) 83 N

Explanation:

Assuming g = 10 m/s².

Draw free body diagrams for the child and the chair.

There are three forces on the child:

Tension force T pulling up,

Weight force Mg pulling down,

and normal force N pushing up.

There are three forces on the chair:

Tension force T pulling up,

Weight force mg pulling down,

and normal force N pushing down.

Sum of forces on the child in the y direction:

∑F = ma

T + N − Mg = Ma

Sum of forces on the chair in the y direction:

∑F = ma

T − N − mg = ma

Add the equations together to find the acceleration.

2T − Mg − mg = Ma + ma

a = (2T − Mg − mg) / (M + m)

a = g (2T − Mg − mg) / (Mg + mg)

a = (10 m/s²) (2 × 250 N − 320 N − 160 N) / (320 N + 160 N)

a = 0.42 m/s²

Plug into either equation to find the normal force.

T + N − Mg = Ma

250 N + N − 320 N = (320 N / 10 m/s²) (0.42 m/s²)

N = 83 N

A round steel plate with a diameter of 20 cm is supplied with heat in such a way that its temperature changes from 22 ° C to 150 ° C. How much does its area increase?

Answers

Answer:

1.05×10⁻⁴ m²

Explanation:

ΔA = 2 A₀ α ΔT,

where ΔA is the change in area,

A₀ is the initial area,

α is the linear expansion coefficient,

and ΔT is the change in temperature.

A₀ = π (0.20 m / 2)² = 0.0314 m².

For steel, α = 13×10⁻⁶ /°C.

ΔT = 150°C − 22°C = 128°C.

ΔA = 2 (0.0314 m²) (13×10⁻⁶ /°C) (128°C)

ΔA = 1.05×10⁻⁴ m²

White light is spread out into its spectral components by a diffraction grating. If the grating has 1,970 grooves per centimeter, at what angle (in degrees) does red light of wavelength 640 nm appear in first order? (Assume that the light is incident normally on the gratings.)

Answers

Answer;

7.238°

Explanation

From question we know that the grating has 1,970 grooves per centimeter, we can convert to from (cm) to (nm) for unit consistency

The slit separation is expressed below

d=1cm/1970

d=0.0005076

=5076nm

Then the angle (in degrees) that the red light of wavelength 640 nm appear in first order can be calculated using expression below

Sin(x)= mλ/d

Where λ= wavelength=640 nm

d=slit separation

Sin(x)= mλ/d

Sin(x)=(1×640)/5076

=0.126

sin-1(0.126)

X= 7.238°

Therefore,the angle (in degrees) that the red light of wavelength 640 nm appear in first order is 7.238°

Explanation:

If you have a 200g sample of a radioactive isotope that has a half life of 50 years, hc
much will you have left at the end of 200 years?
a. 12.5 g
b. 100 g
c. 50 g
d. 25 g

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

a. 12.5 g

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The initial mass of the radioactive substance = 200 g

The half life of the radioactive substance = 50 years

The time duration for the disintegration = 200 years

The formula for half life is given as follows;

[tex]N(t) = N_0 \left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{t}{t_{1/2}}[/tex]

Where:

N(t) = Quantity of the remaining substance

N₀ = Initial radioactive substance quantity  = 200 g

t = Time duration  = 200 years

 

[tex]t_{1/2}[/tex] = Half life of the radioactive substance  50 years

Therefore, we have;

[tex]N(t) =200 \times \left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{200}{50} } =200 \times \left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right )^4 = 12.5 \ g[/tex]

Therefore, at the end of 200 years, the quantity left = 12.5 g.

b) 30 kg·m/s

c) 0.3 m/s.

18) 2.4 m/s

19) 360,000 N

The different make of  car is safer because the force acting on it  is 28,800 N, resulting much less impact

Explanation:

17) By conservation of linear momentum principle, we have;

m₁·v₁ + m₂·v₂ = m₁·v₁' + m₂·v₂'

Where;

m₁ = The mass of the astronaut = 100 kg

v₁ = The initial velocity of the astronaut = 0 m/s

m₂ = The mass of the equipment box = 2.5 kg

v₂ = The initial velocity of the equipment box = 0 m/s

v₁' = The final velocity of the astronaut

v₂' = The final velocity of the equipment box = 12 m/s

The final momentum of the equipment box = Mass of the equipment box × Final velocity

a) The final momentum of the equipment box = 2.5 kg × 12 m/s = 30 kg·m/s

b) Given that the box and the astronaut will move in opposite directions, we have;

m₁·0 + m₂·0 = -m₁·v₁' + m₂·v₂'

m₁·v₁' = m₂·v₂'

Therefore, the momentum of the astronaut will be equal to the momentum of the equipment box = 30 kg·m/s

c)  The velocity of the astronaut is given by th following relation;

100×0 + 2.5×0 = -100×v₁' + 2.5×12

100×v₁' = 2.5×12

v₁' = 2.5×12/100 = 30/100 = 0.3 m/s

The final velocity of the astronaut = 0.3 m/s.

18) By conservation of linear momentum principle, we have;

m₁·v₁ + m₂·v₂ = m₁·v₁' + m₂·v₂'

Where;

m₁ = The mass of the railway truck= 4000 kg

v₁ = The initial velocity of the railway truck= 8 m/s

m₂ = The mass of the stationary truck = 6000 kg

v₂ = The initial velocity of the stationary truck = 0 m/s

v₁' = The velocity of the two trucks immediately after collision

Therefore, we have;

4000 kg × 6 m/s + 6000 × 0 = (6000 + 4000) × v₁' = 10,000·v₁'

24,000 kg·m/s = 10,000·v₁'

v₁' = 24,000/10,000 = 2.4 m/s

The velocity of the two trucks immediately after collision is = 2.4 m/s

19) The change in kinetic energy of the car due to the collision = 1/2·m·(v₂² - v₁²)

The initial velocity of the car, v₁ = 12 m/s

The final velocity, v₂ = 0 m/s

The mass of the car, m= 600 kg

The time in which the car is brought to rest = 2 seconds

Initial time at point of collision, t₁ = 0 s

Time after collision, t₂ = 0.02 s

By Newton's second law of motion, we have

The force F acting on the car = Rate of change in momentum produced by the force

F = m × dv/dt

Force  = m × (v₂ - v₁)/(t₂ - t₁) = 600×(0-12)/(0.02 - 0) = -360,000 kg·m/s²

The force acting on the car  is equal and opposite to the force of the car =  360,000 N

b) For the different make of the car, we have;

m × (v₂ - v₁)/(t₂ - t₁) = 600×(0-12)/(0.25 - 0) = -28,800 kg·m/s². = -28,800 N

Therefore, the different make of  car is safer because the force acting on it  is 28,800 N, resulting much less impact.

A glacier advances at 7.4 x 10^-6 cm/s
How far will it move in 4.2 y?
Answer in units of cm.
cm/s.

Answers

Answer:

236.8 cm

Explanation:

1 yr = 365 days = (365×24×60×60) secs

= 32 × 10^6

distace = velocity × time

= 7.4 × 10^-6 × 32 × 10^6

= 236.8 cm

The glacier will move 976.8 cm when it advances at 7.4 7.4×10⁻⁶ cm/s in 4.2 y

From the question above when we talk about how far, is still the same as distance.

Applying the equation of velocity,

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

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

make d the subject of equation 1

d = Vt................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: V = 7.4×10⁻⁶ cm/s, t = 4.2 year = (4.2×3.154×10⁷) seconds = 1.32×10⁸ seconds

Substitute these values into equation 2

d = (7.4×10⁻⁶)(1.32×10⁸)

d = 9.768×10² cm

d = 976.8 cm

Hence the glacier will advances 976.8 cm

A ball with a mass of 0.5 kg is attached to one end of a light rod that is 0.5 m long. The other end of the rod is loosely pinned at a frictionless pivot. The rod is raised until it is vertical, with the ball above the pivot. The rod is released and the ball moves in a vertical circle. The tension in the rod as the ball moves through the bottom of the circle is closest to:

Answers

Answer:

The tension in the rod as the ball moves through the bottom circle is 9.8 N

Explanation:

When the ball is released from rest, the centripetal force equals the weight of the ball. So mv²/r = mg where m = mass of ball = 0.5 kg, v = speed of ball, r = radius of vertical circle = length of rod = 0.5 m and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

v = √gr = √9.8 m/s² × 0.5 m = √4.9 = 2.21 m/s

Now at the bottom of the circle T - mg = mv²/r where T = tension in the rod

T = m(g + v²/r)

= m(g + (√gr)²/r)

= m(g+ gr/r)

= m(g + g)

= 2mg

= 2 × 0.5 kg × 9.8 m/s²

= 9.8 N

So, the tension in the rod as the ball moves through the bottom circle is 9.8 N

Two mass m1 and m2 lie on a frictionless surface. Between the two masses is a compressed spring, with spring constant k. The system is held in place. At time t=0 the blocks are released. The blocks move off in opposite directions with velocities v1 and v2. how much was the spring compressed?

Answers

Answer:

The spring was compressed the following amount:

[tex]\Delta x=\sqrt{ \frac{m_1\,v_1^2+ m_2\,v_2^2}{k} }[/tex]

Explanation:

Use conservation of energy between initial and final state, considering that the surface id frictionless, and there is no loss in thermal energy due to friction. the total initial energy is the potential energy of the compressed spring (by an amount [tex]\Delta x[/tex]), and the total final energy is the addition of the kinetic energies of both masses:

A diver performs a dive from a 10 m-platform. She
jumps vertically upwards at 3 m s initially.
Find the time she takes to reach the water surface​

Answers

Answer:

The time she takes to reach the water from when she jumps off the platform is 1.71 s

Explanation:

According to the equations of motion, we have;

v = u - g·t

v² = u² - 2·g·s

s₁ = u₁·t₁ + 1/2·g₁·t₁²

The given parameters are;

The height of the platform (assumption: above the water) = 10 m

The velocity with which she jumps, u = 3 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

The height to which she jumps, s, is found as follows;

v² = u² - 2·g·s

At maximum height, v = 0, which gives;

0 = 3² - 2×9.81×s

2×9.81×s = 3² = 9

s = 9/(2×9.81) = 0.4587 m

s = 0.4587 m

The time to maximum height, t, is found as follows;

v = u - g·t

0 = 3 - 9.81×t

9.81×t = 3

t = 3/9.81 = 0.3058 s

The total distance, s₁ from maximum height to the water surface = s + 10 = 0.4587 + 10 = 10.4587 m = 10.46 m

The time to reach the water from maximum height, t₁, is found as follows;

s₁ = u₁·t₁ + 1/2·g₁·t₁²

Where;

s₁ =  The total distance from maximum height to the water surface = 10.46 m

u₁ = The initial velocity, this time from the maximum height = 0 m/s

g₁ = The acceleration due to gravity, g (positive this time as the diver is accelerating down) = 9.81 m/s²

t₁ = The time to reach the water from maximum height

Substituting the values gives;

s₁ = u₁·t₁ + 1/2·g₁·t₁²

10.46 = 0·t₁ + 1/2·9.81·t₁²

t₁²= 10.46/(1/2×9.81) = 2.13 s²

t₁ = √2.13  = 1.46 s

Total time = t₁ + t = 1.46 + 0.3058 = 1.7066 ≈ 1.71 s.

Therefore, the time she takes to reach the water from when she jumps off the platform = 1.71 s.
