Five ramps lead from the ground to the second floor of a workshop, as sketched below. All five ramps have the same height; ramps B, C, D and E have the same length; ramp A is longer than the other four. You need to push a heavy cart up to the second floor and you may choose any one of the five ramps.Assuming no frictional forces on the cart, which ramp would require you to do the least work?

Answers

Answer 1

The mechanical advantage of ramp A is greater than others and it will require the least force to move the load to greater distance.

Let the height of the ramp = hLet the length of ramp B, C, D and E = LLet the length of the ramp A = 2L

The mechanical advantage of the ramp is calculated as follows;

[tex]M.A = \frac{L}{h}[/tex]

The mechanical advantage of the ramp B, C, D and E is calculated as;

[tex]M.A = \frac{L}{h} \\\\[/tex]

The mechanical advantage of the ramp A is calculated as follows;

[tex]M.A = \frac{2L}{h} \\\\M.A = 2(\frac{L}{h} )[/tex]

Since the length of the ramp A is greater than other ramps, the mechanical advantage will be greater and it will require the least force to move the load to greater distance.

What is the difference between real and apparent weightlessness?

Answers

Answer:

In space we feel weightlessness because the earth's gravity has less effect on us. The Earth's gravitational attraction at those altitudes is only about 11% less than it is at the Earth's surface. If you had a ladder that could reach as high as the shuttle's orbit, your weight would be 11% less at the top.

What is velocity ?

velocity is the  rate of change of the position of the object with respect to  reference and it is complicated but velocity is basically speeding a particular object in a specific direction.

Velocity is a vector quantity which means both magnitude (speed) and direction are combinedly define define velocity. The SI unit of velocity is meter per second (ms-1) and the magnitude or the direction of velocity of a body changes leads to acceleration.

Speed and velocity are the two closest term but the major difference between speed and velocity is that speed gives us an idea that the object with the faster rate of movement r where as  velocity  speed up as well as  tells us the direction of the body

A flywheel, rotating about its axis at a rate of 4 rev/s is acted upon by a torque of 25 Nm for 10 sec. If the wheel has moment of inertia of 1.2 kgm^2, what would be the speed of the wheel at the end in rev/s?

Answers

The applied torque increases the angular speed by the application of an

angular acceleration.

The speed after 10 seconds is approximately 37.16 rev/s.

Reasons:

The speed of the flywheel at the axis = 4 rev/s

The torque applied, T = 25 N·m

The time the torque is applied, t = 10 sec

Moment of inertia of the flywheel, I = 1.2 kg·m²

Required:

The speed at the end of the 10 seconds

Solution:

T = I·α

Where;

α = Angular acceleration

[tex]\displaystyle \alpha = \frac{T}{I}[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle \alpha = \frac{24 \ N\cdot m}{1.2 \ kg \cdot m^2} = \mathbf{20\frac{5}{6} \ s^{-2}}[/tex]

The rotational speed, ω = ω₀ + α·t

Which gives;

[tex]\displaystyle \mathrm{The \ angular \ speed, } \ \omega = \frac{2 \cdot \pi \times 4 \ rad }{s} = \frac{8 \cdot \pi \ rad }{s}[/tex]

ω₀ = 8·π rad/s

Which gives;

[tex]\displaystyle \omega = \mathbf{8 \cdot \pi +2 \frac{5}{6} \times 10} = 233.47[/tex]

The speed of the wheel in revolution per second is therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle Speed \ in \ rev/s = \frac{8 \cdot \pi +2 \frac{5}{6} \times 10}{2\cdot \pi} \approx 37.16[/tex]

The speed after 10 seconds is approximately 37.16 rev/s.

Find (a) the force from the left tire, (b) the pressure from the left tire, (c) the force from the right tire, (d) the pressure from the right tire that each tire applies to the ground.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Summing moments about the CG to zero will show that the two normal forces are equal and have a value of FL = FR = 684/2 = 342 N

Pressure on the left

PL = 342 / 6.20e-4 = 551,612.9032... = 5.5e5 Pa

Pressure on the right

PR = 342 / 9.20e-4 = 371,739.1304... = 3.7e5 Pa

A) The force from the left tire is; FL = 342 N

B) The pressure from the left tire is; PL = 551613 N/m²

C) The force from the right tire is; FR = 342 N

D) The pressure from the right tire is; PR = 371739 N/m²

We see that;

FL and FR are upward forces

W is the downward force.

We know that in equilibrium;

Sum of upward forces = sum of downward forces

Thus;

FL + FR = W

We are given W = 684 N

Since W is at the center, it means that FL = FR. Thus;

FL = FR = 684/2

FL = FR = 342 N

We are given;

Contact area of left tire; AL = 6.2 × 10⁻⁴ m²

Contact area of right tire; AR = 9.2 × 10⁻⁴ m²

Formula for pressure is;

Pressure = Force/Area

Pressure on the left tire;

PL = FL/AL

PL = 342/(6.2 × 10⁻⁴)

PL = 551613 N/m²

Pressure on the t right tire;

PR = FR/AR

PR = 342/(9.2 × 10⁻⁴)

PR = 371739 N/m²

A 10kg crate sits at rest on a rough flat surface. Astudent decides to pull the crate by attaching a rope at a 37 degree angle. Although the student pulls the rope with a force of 600 newtons, the coefficient of kinetic friction is large and has the force the student applies remains constant, how much time after he begins pulling the crate will it take before the crate has traveled a distance of 1.0 meter?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Normal force of the surface on the box will be

N = mg - Fsinθ

Ν = 10(9.8) - 600sin37

N = -263

As normal force cannot be less than zero, the applied force lifts the crate off the surface.

Now it's just a matter of finding the acceleration

In the horizontal direction, the acceleration is

a = F/m

a = (600cos37) / 10

a =  47.9181... m/s²

the crate weight is mg = 10(9.8) = 98 N.

In the vertical direction the acceleration is

a = ((600sin37 - 98) / 10)

a = 26.3089... m/s²

total acceleration is

a = √(47.9181² + 26.3089²)

a = 54.6653... m/s²

s = ½at²

t = √(2s/a)

t = √(2(1.0)/54.6653)

t = 0.19127...

t = 0.19 s

Answers

Explanation:

The orbiting period of a satellite at a height h from earth' surface is

T=2πr32gR2

where r=R+h.

Then, T=2π(R+h)R(R+hg)−−−−−−−−√

Here, R=6400km,h=1600km=R/4

T=2πR+R4−−−−−−√R(R+R4g)−−−−−−−−−⎷=2π(1.25)32Rg−−√

Putting the given values,

T=2×3.14×(6.4×106m9.8ms−2)−−−−−−−−−−−−√(1.25)32=7092s=1.97h

Now, a satellite will appear stationary in the sky over a point on the earth's equator if its period of revolution around the earthh is equal to the period of revolution of the earth up around its own axis whichh is 24h. Let us find the height h of such a satellite above the earth's suface in terms of the earth,'s radius.

Let it be nR.Then

T=2π(R+nR)R(R+nRg)−−−−−−−−−−√

=2π(Rg)−−−−−√(1+n)32

=2×3.14(6.4×106m/s9.8m/s2)−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−⎷(1+n)32

(5075s)(1+n)32=(1.41h)(1+n)32

For T=24h, we have (24h)=(1.41h)(1+n)32

or (1+n)32=241.41=17

or 1+n(17)23=6.61

or n=5.61

The height of the geostationary satellite above the earth's surface is nR=5.61×6400km=6.59×104km.

A tennis player strikes the tennis ball with an initial velocity of 44.7 m/s horizontally. The ball is initially 1.28 m above the ground and 12.9 m from the 0.914 m tall net. Does the tennis ball make it over the net?

Answers

Hi there!

We can begin by finding the total time taken for the ball to reach the net using the equation:

dₓ = vₓt

12.9 = 44.7t

12.9/44.7 = t = 0.289 s

Now, we can use the following equation to solve for displacement in the Y direction:

d = y₀ + vit + 1/2at²

There is no initial vertical velocity, so:

d = y₀ + 1/2at²

Plug in known values:

d = 1.28 + 1/2(-9.8)(0.289²)

d = 0.87m

Thus, since 0.87 m < 0.914 m, the tennis ball does NOT make it over the net.

The definition of force in physics is: The push or pull on a massed object changes its velocity. An external force is an agent that has the power to alter the resting or moving condition of a body. It has a direction and a magnitude.

When  forces that are greater in one direction than in any other direction, resultant will be  unbalanced forces.  Unbalanced forces are those acting on a body when the net force acting on the body is greater than zero. The body alters its state of motion when unbalanced forces act on it.
