Two children sit on a seesaw that is in rotational equilibrium. The first child has weight W and sits at distance d from the pivot. If the second child sits at a distance of 7*d from the pivot, what must be the weight of the second child

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

W/7

Explanation:

By principle of moments,

Sum of clockwise moment = sum of anticlockwise moment

Weight × 7d = W × d

Weight = W/7

Answer 2

Since the two children are in rotational equilibrium, the weight of the second child is W/7.

How can the weight of the second child be determined?

The weight of the second child can be determined from the principle of moments.

The principle of moments states that for a body in equilibrium, the sum of the clockwise moments and anticlockwise moments about a point is zero.

Let the weight of the second child be X

From the principle of moments:

W × d = 7×d × X

X = W/7

Therefore, the weight of the second child is W/7.

b. Projectile on cliff (range)
An object of mass 5 kg is projected at an angle of 25° to the horizontal with a speed of 22 ms-1 from the top of the cliff.
The height of the cliff is 21 m. Take g, the acceleration due to gravity, to be 9.81 ms2
How far horizontally (to 1 decimal place) from the base of the cliff does the object land?

Answers

Answer:

x = 41.28 m

Explanation:

This is a projectile launching exercise, let's find the time it takes to get to the base of the cliff.

Let's start by using trigonometry to find the initial velocity

         cos 25 = v₀ₓ / v₀

         sin 25 = Iv_{oy} / v₀

         v₀ₓ = v₀ cos 25

         v_{oy} = v₀ sin 25

         v₀ₓ = 22 cos 25 = 19.94 m / s

         v_{oy} = 22 sin 25 = 0.0192 m / s

let's use movement on the vertical axis

         y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

     

when reaching the base of the cliff y = 0 and the initial height is y₀ = 21 m

         0 = 21 + 0.0192 t - ½ 9.81 t²

         4.905 t² - 0.0192 t - 21 = 0

         t² - 0.003914 t - 4.2813 =0

we solve the quadratic equation

        t = [tex]\frac{ 0.003914\ \pm \sqrt{0.003914^2 + 4 \ 4.2813 } }{2}[/tex]

        t = [tex]\frac{0.003914 \ \pm 4.13828}{2}[/tex]

        t₁ = 2.07 s

        t₂ = -2.067 s

since time must be a positive scalar quantity, the correct result is

        t = 2.07 s

now we can look up the distance traveled

         x = v₀ₓ t

         x = 19.94  2.07

         x = 41.28 m

The pressure of sea water increases by 1.0atm for each 10m increase in the depth, by what percentage is the density of water increased in the deepest ocean of water of 12km. Compressibility is 5.0×10^-5 atm

Answers

The percentage by which the water density increased is 4.1[tex]\mathbf{\overline 6}[/tex] %

The known values are;

The increase in pressure per 10 meter increase in depth = 1.0 atm

The depth of the deepest ocean = 12 km = 12,000 m

The compressibility of the ocean = 5.0 × 10⁻⁵ 1/atm

The unknown

The percentage the density of water increased in the deepest ocean

Strategy;

Find the pressure at the deepest point of the deepest ocean and apply the compressibility

We have;

[tex]\mathbf{Compressibility = \dfrac{1}{V} \times \dfrac{\partial V}{\partial p}}[/tex]

The change in pressure, [tex]\partial p[/tex] = (12,000 m/(10 m)) × 1.0 atm = 1,200 atm

Therefore, we have for one cubic meter of water

[tex]\mathbf{5.0 \times 10^{-5} \ atm^{-1} = \dfrac{1}{1 \, m^3} \times \dfrac{\partial V}{1,200 \, atm}}[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]\mathbf{\partial}[/tex]V = 5.0 × 10⁻⁵ atm⁻¹ × 1 m³ × 1,200 atm = 0.06 m³

The new volume = V - [tex]\mathbf{\partial}[/tex]V

∴ The new volume = 1 m³ - 0.06 m³ = 0.94 m³

The initial density = mass/(1 m³)

The new density = mass/(0.96 m³)

The percentage increase in density, [tex]\partial[/tex]ρ%, is given as follows;

[tex]\mathbf{\partial p \% = \dfrac{ \dfrac{Mass}{0.96 \ m^3} - \dfrac{Mass}{1 \ m^3} }{ \dfrac{Mass}{1 \ m^3}} \times 100 = \dfrac{25}{6} \% = 4.1 \overline 6 \%}[/tex]

∴  [tex]\mathbf{\partial}[/tex]ρ% =  4.1[tex]\mathbf {\overline 6}[/tex] %

The percentage by which the water density increased, [tex]\partial[/tex]ρ% = 4.1[tex]\mathbf{\overline 6}[/tex] %

A) The same.
B) Doubled.
C) Tripled.
D) Quadruple.
E) None of the above.

Answers

Answer:

D) Quadruple.

Explanation:

We will use the second equation of motion to solve this problem:

[tex]s = v_it + \frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]

where,

s = distance travelled by the rock

vi = initial speed of rock = 0 m/s

t = time taken

g = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the moon

Therefore,

[tex]s = (0\ m/s)t+\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\s =\frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]----------- equation (1)

Now, we double the time:

[tex]s' = \frac{1}{2}g(2t)^2\\\\s' = 4(\frac{1}{2}gt^2)[/tex]

using equation (1):

s' = 4s

Hence, the correct option is:

D) Quadruple.

Answers

Answer:

The mass of the second block=0.457 kg

Explanation:

We are given that

m1=1.5 kg

v1=1.3m/s

v2=4.3 m/s

V=2.0 m/s

We have to find the mass of the second block.

[tex]m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)V[/tex]

Let m2=m

Substitute the values

[tex]1.5(1.3)+m(4.3)=(1.5+m)(2)[/tex]

[tex]1.95+4.3m=3+2m[/tex]

[tex]4.3m-2m=3-1.95[/tex]

[tex]2.3m=1.05[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{1.05}{2.3}[/tex]

[tex]m=0.457 kg[/tex]

A motor is designed to operate on 117 V and draws a current of 17.7 A when it first starts up. At its normal operating speed, the motor draws a current of 2.78 A. Obtain (a) the resistance of the armature coil, (b) the back emf developed at normal speed, and (c) the current drawn by the motor at one-third normal speed.

Answers

Answer:

Resistance of the armature coil = 6.61 ohms

Back emf developed at normal speed = 98.62 V (Approx.)

Current drawn by the motor at one-third normal speed = 12.73 A

Explanation:

Given:

Potential difference V = 117 V

Current = 17.7 A

Motor drawn current = 2.78 A

Find:

Resistance of the armature coil

Back emf developed at normal speed

Current drawn by the motor at one-third normal speed

Computation:

A] Resistance of the armature coil R = V/ I

Resistance of the armature coil = 117 / 17.7

Resistance of the armature coil = 6.61 ohms

B] Back emf developed at normal speed  = V- IR

Back emf developed at normal speed = 117 V - (2.78 A)(6.61 ohms)

Back emf developed at normal speed = 117 V - 18.37

Back emf developed at normal speed = 98.62 V (Approx.)

C] Current drawn by the motor at one-third normal speed = 17.7 A - (98.62/3)/(6.61 ohms)

Current drawn by the motor at one-third normal speed = 17.7 - 4.97

Current drawn by the motor at one-third normal speed = 12.73 A

As we know,

why the stone moves away when the string is broken rotation​

Answers

Answer:

When a stone is going around a circular path, the instantaneous velocity of stone is acting as tangent to the circle. When the string breaks, the centripetal force stops to act. Due to inertia, the stone continues to move along the tangent to circular path. So, the stone flies off tangentially to the circular path

Answer:

when the string's rotation is broken, there will be no centripetal force to keep the stone stationary. Thus, the stone will flung away when the rotation is stopped

A simple pendulum consists of a ball of mass 3 kg hanging from a uniform string of mass 0.05 kg and length L. If the period of oscillation of the pendulum is 2 s, determine the speed of a transverse wave in the string when the pendulum hangs vertically.

Answers

Answer:

v = 3.12 m/s

Explanation:

First, we will find the length of the string by using the formula of the time period:

[tex]T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}\\\\l = \frac{T^2g}{4\pi^2}\\\\[/tex]

where,

l = length of string = ?

T = time period = 2 s

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

[tex]l = \frac{(2\ s)^2(9.81\ m/s^2)}{4\pi^2}\\\\l = 0.99\ m[/tex]

Now, we will find tension in the string in the vertical position through the weight of the ball:

T = W = mg = (3 kg)(9.81 m/s²)

T = 29.43 N

Now, the speed of the transverse wave is given as follows:

[tex]v=\sqrt{\frac{Tl}{m}}\\\\v=\sqrt{\frac{(29.43\ N)(0.99\ m)}{3\ kg}}\\\\[/tex]

v = 3.12 m/s
