A block with mass m1 = 4.50 kg and a ball with mass m2 = 7.70 kg are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless

pulley, as shown in figure (a). The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.300. 
(a) Find the acceleration of the two objects and the tension in the string. 
(b) Check the answer for the acceleration by using the system approach. (Use the following as necessary: m1, m2, μk, and g.) 
(c) What if an additional mass is attached to the ball? How large must this mass be to increase the downward acceleration by 60%? 

For (a) I calculated acceleration to be 5.10 m/s^2 and tension to be 36.2N. 
For (b) I the equation is a = (m2g-ukm1g)/(m1+m2) 
It is (c) that I cannot figure out. Can anybody please help me?

A block weighing m1 = 4.50 kg and a ball weighing m2 = 7.70 kg are linked by a light string over a frictionless pulley, as illustrated in figure (a). The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.300.
(a) Determine the acceleration of both objects and the tension present in the string.
(b) Verify the acceleration calculation using a systems approach. (Utilize m1, m2, μk, and g as needed.)
(c) If an additional mass is added to the ball, what amount is necessary to augment the downward acceleration by 60%?

In (a), I calculated the acceleration to be 5.10 m/s^2 and the tension to be 36.2N.
In (b), the equation used is a = (m2g-ukm1g)/(m1+m2)
It’s (c) that I am struggling to understand. Can anyone assist me?

Complete Question

An aluminum "12 gauge" wire measures a diameter of 0.205 centimeters. The resistivity ρ of aluminum is 2.75×10−8 ohm-meters. The electric field E in the wire varies over time as E(t)=0.0004t2−0.0001t+0.0004 newtons per coulomb, where time is recorded in seconds.

At time 5 seconds, I = 1.2 A.

We need to find the charge Q traveling through a cross-section of the conductor from time 0 to time 5 seconds.

Answer:

The charge is  Q =2.094 C

Explanation:

The question indicates that

    The wire’s diameter is  d = 0.205cm = 0.00205 \ m

     The radius of the wire is  r = \frac{0.00205}{2} = 0.001025 \ m

     Aluminum's resistivity is 2.75*10^{-8} \ ohm-meters.

       The electric field variation is described as

         E (t) = 0.0004t^2 - 0.0001 +0.0004

     

The charge is effectively given by the equation

       Q = \int\limits^{t}_{0} {\frac{A}{\rho} E(t) } \, dt

Where A is the area expressed as

       A = \pi r^2 = (3.142 * (0.001025^2)) = 3.30*10^{-6} \ m^2

 Thus,

       \frac{A}{\rho} = \frac{3.3 *10^{-6}}{2.75 *10^{-8}} = 120.03 \ m / \Omega

Therefore

      Q = 120 \int\limits^{t}_{0} { E(t) } \, dt

By substituting values

      Q = 120 \int\limits^{t}_{0} { [ 0.0004t^2 - 0.0001t +0.0004] } \, dt

     Q = 120 [ \frac{0.0004t^3 }{3} - \frac{0.0001 t^2}{2} +0.0004t] } \left | t} \atop {0}} \right.

The question states that t =  5 seconds

           Q = 120 [ \frac{0.0004t^3 }{3} - \frac{0.0001 t^2}{2} +0.0004t] } \left | 5} \atop {0}} \right.

          Q = 120 [ \frac{0.0004(5)^3 }{3} - \frac{0.0001 (5)^2}{2} +0.0004(5)] }

         Q =2.094 C

The image illustrates that as the distance between two objects increases, the force of gravity ____________. A) decreases. B) in
Sav [3153]
The image is absent (but it's not essential to resolve the issue).

The right response is A) decreases, as gravitational force is inversely related to the square of the distance. The magnitude of the gravitational force between two masses M and m, separated by a distance d, is expressed as
F=G \frac{Mm}{d^2}
where G is the gravitational constant. The formula demonstrates that as the distance d between the two masses increases, the force magnitude diminishes.

A container is filled with an ideal diatomic gas to a pressure and volume of P1 and V1, respectively. The gas is then warmed in
Maru [3345]

Answer:

Explanation:

The transitions occur as follows:

P₁ V₁ changes to 3P₁, V₁ (with constant volume) — first phase.

Subsequently, 3P₁,V₁ transitions to 3P₁, 5V₁ (with constant pressure) — second phase.

During the initial phase, the temperature must be escalated by a factor of 3. Therefore, if the starting temperature is T₁, then the ending temperature will be 3 T₁.

P₁V₁ = n R T₁, where n represents the number of moles of gas.

Thus, nRT₁ = P₁V₁.

The heat added at constant volume is given by n Cv (3T₁ - T₁),

= n x 5/3 R X 2T₁ (noting that for diatomic gas, Cv = 5/3 R).

= 10/3 x nRT₁

= 10/3 x P₁V₁.

In the second phase, the temperature must rise 5 times. Thus, if the initial temperature is 3T₁, then the final temperature will be 15 T₁.

The heat added at constant pressure in this scenario becomes:

= n Cp (15T₁ - 3T₁)

= n x 7/3 R X 12T₁ (for diatomic gases, Cp = 7/3 R).

= 28 x nRT₁

= 28 P₁V₁.
