In order for the ball to be able to make a complete circle around the peg, there must be sufficient speed at the top of its arc

such that the centripetal acceleration is large enough to keep the string that. Determine the minimum speed for the ball to achieve a complete circle in terms of L, d, and g. (Hint: use Newton’s 2nd Law and consider what the string tension must be for the ball to just barely get over the top).

Answer:

Explanation:

Let T represent the tension in the swing.

At the peak mg-T=\frac{mv^2}{r}

where v denotes the velocity needed to maintain the circular motion.

r equals the distance from the rotation point to the center of the ball, which is L+\frac{d}{2} (with d being the ball's diameter).

The threshold velocity can be expressed as mg-0=\frac{mv^2}{r}

To determine the velocity at the bottom, we can use energy conservation principles at both the top and bottom positions.

At the top E_T=mg\times 2L+\frac{mv^2}{2}

Energy at the bottom E_b=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}

By comparing the two states using conservation of energy, we find v_0^2=4gr+gr

v_0^2=5gr

v_0=\sqrt{5gr}

v_0=\sqrt{5g\left ( \frac{d}{2}+L\right )}

serg [3582]

Answer:

8616.7468 \ kg/m^3

Explanation:

The measurement of pressure is indicated as p=\rho gh where p denotes the pressure, \rho signifies density, and h represents height

Given values include pressure p=9.891\times 10^4\ Pa, gravity's acceleration g=9.9870\ m/sec^2, and height =1.163 m

\rho =\frac{p}{gh}=\frac{9.891\times 10^4}{9.870\times 1.163}=8616.7468 \ kg/m^3

A locomotive is accelerating at 1.6 m/s2. it passes through a 20.0-m-wide crossing in a time of 2.4 s. after the locomotive leav
kicyunya [3294]

Response:

Once it has crossed, the locomotive requires 17.6 seconds to achieve a speed of 32 m/s.

Details:

  The locomotive's acceleration is 1.6 m/s^2

  The duration taken to pass the crossing is 2.4 seconds.

  We can apply the motion equation, v = u + at, where v represents final velocity, u indicates initial velocity, a denotes acceleration, and t signifies time.

  When the speed reaches 32 m/s, we have v = 32 m/s, u = 0 m/s, and a= 1.6 m/s^2.

   32 = 0 + 1.6 * t

    t = 20 seconds.

  Therefore, the locomotive attains a speed of 32 m/s after 20 seconds, and it passes the crossing in 2.4 seconds.

Thus, after clearing the crossing, it takes an additional 17.6 seconds to reach the speed of 32 m/s.

A plane takes off in san francisco at noon and flies toward the southeast. an hour later, it is 400 kilometers east and 300 kilo
Keith_Richards [3271]
This initial stage represents a right triangle. If the aircraft is positioned 400 km to the east and 300 km to the south of the origin while traveling in a straight path, you can form a right triangle with sides measuring 300, 400, and c. You might notice that these dimensions correspond to multiples of the Pythagorean triple 3, 4, 5, meaning that the length of c is 500 km. Alternatively, you would indicate
c^2 = 300^2+400^2 \\ c = 500.

For the second step, assuming I am correctly understanding "degrees south of east," it involves calculating the angle between the horizontal line indicating east and the trajectory of the aircraft. I created a diagram illustrating this (see attached). You could employ a trigonometric function related to one of the angles to find the solution. I selected
tan(C)= \frac{3}{4} \\ arctan( \frac{3}{4})=36.870. Therefore, I deduce that the angle is 37° south of east.

A spinning wheel is slowed down by a brake, giving it a constant angular acceleration of 25.60 rad/s2. During a 4.20-s time inte
Yuliya22 [3333]

We will use the equations of rotational kinematics,

\theta =\theta _{0} + \omega_{0} t+ \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2             (A)

\omega^2= \omega^2_{0} +2\alpha\theta                                     (B)                                          

Here, \theta and \theta _{0} denote the final and initial angular displacements, respectively, whereas \omega and \omega_{0} represent final and initial angular velocities, and \alpha is the angular acceleration.

We are provided with \alpha = - 25.60 \ rad/s^2, \theta = 62.4 \ rad and t = 4.20 \ s.

By substituting these values into equation (A), we have

62.4 \ rad = 0 + \omega_{0} 4.20 \ s + \frac{1}{2} (- 25.60 \ rad/s^2) ( 4.20)^2 \\\\ \omega_{0} = \frac{220.5+ 62.4 }{4.20} =67.4 \ rad/s

Now, using equation (B),

\omega^2=(67.4 \ rad/s)^2 + 2 (- 25.60 \ rad/s^2)62.4 \ rad \\\\\ \omega = 36.7 \ rad/s

This indicates that the wheel's angular speed at the 4.20-second mark is 36.7 rad/s.

The magnitude of the electric current is inversely proportional to the _____ of the circuits in R2D2.
Keith_Richards [3271]
The essential principle for this question is Ohm’s Law: V=IR, I=V/R, R=V/I. Therefore, the answer is (3) Resistance, as it is inversely related to Current (I=V/R).
