A belt is run over two drums. The larger drum has weight 4 lbs and a radius of gyration of 1.25 inches while the smaller drum has weight 2.7 lbs and a radius of gyration of 0.75 inches. The tension from the smaller drum is held constant at 6 lbs. If it is known that the speed of the belt is 11 ft/s after 0.16 s, what is the tension between the drums?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

269 lb

Explanation:

We first find the tangential acceleration, a on the drums

a = Δv/Δt since the speed of the belt is 11 ft/s after 0.16 s, Δv = 11 ft/s and Δt = 0.16 s

a = Δv/Δt = 11 ft/s ÷ 0.16 s = 68.75 ft/s²

Since torque τ = Tk = Iα where I = moment of inertia of larger drum = Mk² where m = mass of larger drum = 4 lbs, k = radius of gyration of larger drum = 1.25 inches, T = tension due to larger drum and α = angular acceleration of larger drum.

So, T = Iα/k = Mk²α/k = Mαk = Ma (since a = αk )

T = 4 lbs × 68.75 ft/s² = 275 lb

The tension due to the smaller drum is T' = 6 lb  .

So the net tension in the belt is T'' = T - T' = 275 lb - 6 lb = 269 lb

e)      v_max = 1,739 mm / s

Explanation:

A sound wave has the general expression

           s = s₀ sin (kx - wt)

where s is the displacement, s₀ the amplitude of the wave, k the wave vector and w the angular velocity, in this exercise the expression given is

           s = 1.99 sin (15.2 x - 869 t)

a) the amplitude of the wave is

        A = s₀

        A = 1.99 μm

b) wave spectrum is

      k = 2π /λ

in the equation k = 15.2 m⁻¹

      λ = 2π / k

      λ = 2π / 15.2

     λ = 0.4134 m

c) the speed of the wave is given by the relation

       v = λ f

angular velocity and frequency are related

       w = 2π f

        f = w / 2π

        f = 869 / 2π

        f = 138.3 Hz

   

        v = 0.4134 138.3

         v = 57.2 m / s

d) To find the instantaneous velocity, we substitute the given distance and time into the equation

       s = 1.99 sin (15.2 0.0509 - 869 2.94 10⁻³)

       s = 1.99 sin (0.77368 - 2.55486)

remember that trigonometry functions must be in radians

       s = 1.99 (-0.98895)

       s = - 1,946 nm

The negative sign indicates that it shifts to the left

e) the speed of the oscillating part is

           v_maximum = 1.99 869

           v_maximo = 1739.31 μm / s

let's reduce to mm / s

          v_maxio = 1739.31 miuy / s (1 mm / 103 mu)

When A sound wave has the general expression is:

Then, s = s₀ sin (kx - wt)

Now, where s is the displacement, Then, s₀ is the amplitude of the wave, k the wave vector, and w the angular velocity, Now, in this exercise the expression given is

s is = 1.99 sin (15.2 x - 869 t)

a) When the amplitude of the wave is

A is = s₀

Thus, A = 1.99 μm

b) When the wave spectrum is

k is = 2π /λ

Now, in the equation k = 15.2 m⁻¹

Then, λ = 2π / k

After that, λ = 2π / 15.2

Thus, λ = 0.4134 m

c) When the speed of the wave is given by the relation is:

Then, v = λ f

Now, the angular velocity and frequency are related is:

w is = 2π f

Then, f = w / 2π

After that, f = 869 / 2π

Now, f = 138.3 Hz

Then, v = 0.4134 138.3

Thus, v = 57.2 m / s

d) Now, To find the instantaneous velocity, When we substitute the given distance and time into the equation

Then, s = 1.99 sin (15.2 0.0509 - 869 2.94 10⁻³)

After that, s = 1.99 sin (0.77368 - 2.55486)

Then remember that trigonometry functions must be in radians

After that, s = 1.99 (-0.98895)

Thus, s = - 1,946 nm

When The negative sign indicates that it shifts to the left

e) When the speed of the oscillating part is

Then, v = ds / dt)

Now, v = - s₀(-w) cos (kx -wt)

When the maximum speed occurs when the cosines is 1

Then, v_maximo = s₀w

After that, v_maximum = 1.99 869

v_maximo = 1739.31 μm / s

Now, let's reduce to mm / s

     The radius is  [tex]r = 1.1 \ m[/tex]

     The speed is  [tex]v = 3.57 \ m /s[/tex]

Answer:

b) the heavier one will have twice the kinetic energy of the lighter one.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of object with mass, m

K.E₁ = ¹/₂mv²

where;

m is mass of the object

v is the velocity of the object

Since, the two objects are falling under same acceleration due to gravity, their velocity will be increasing at the same rate

The kinetic energy of object with mass, 2m

K.E₂ = ¹/₂(2m)v²

K.E₂ = 2(¹/₂mv²)

BUT K.E₁ = ¹/₂mv²

K.E₂ = 2(K.E₁)

Therefore, the heavier one will have twice the kinetic energy of the lighter one.

Find the momentum of a particl with a mass of one gram moving with half the speed of light.

Answers

Answer:

129900

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the particle, m = 1 g = 1*10^-3 kg

Speed of the particle, u = ½c

Speed of light, c = 3*10^8

To solve this, we will use the formula

p = ymu, where

y = √[1 - (u²/c²)]

Let's solve for y, first. We have

y = √[1 - (1.5*10^8²/3*10^8²)]

y = √(1 - ½²)

y = √(1 - ¼)

y = √0.75

y = 0.8660, using our newly gotten y, we use it to solve the final equation

p = ymu

p = 0.866 * 1*10^-3 * 1.5*10^8

p = 129900 kgm/s

thus, we have found that the momentum of the particle is 129900 kgm/s

       F₂ = μ g (2M + M₁)

we substitute in 1

      F = μ M g + μ g (2M + M₁)

      F = μ g (3M + M₁)

In a physics lab, light with a wavelength of 490 nm travels in air from a laser to a photocell in a time of 17.5 ns . When a slab of glass with a thickness of 0.800 m is placed in the light beam, with the beam incident along the normal to the parallel faces of the slab, it takes the light a time of 21.5 ns to travel from the laser to the photocell.What is the wavelength of the light in the glass? Use 3.00×108 m/s for the speed of light in a vacuum. Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answers

Answer:

196 nm

Explanation:

Given that

Value of wavelength, = 490 nm

Time spent in air, t(a) = 17.5 ns

Thickness of glass, th = 0.8 m

Time spent in glass, t(g) = 21.5 ns

Speed of light in a vacuum, c = 3*10^8 m/s

To start with, we find the difference between the two time spent

Time spent on glass - Time spent in air

21.5 - 17.5 = 4 ns

0.8/(c/n) - 0.8/c = 4 ns

Note, light travels with c/n speed in media that has index of refraction

(n - 1) * 0.8/c = 4 ns

n - 1 = (4 ns * c) / 0.8

n - 1 = (4*10^-9 * 3*10^8) / 0.8

n - 1 = 1.2/0.8

n - 1 = 1.5

n = 1.5 + 1

n = 2.5

As a result, the wavelength of light in a medium with index of refraction would then be

490 / 2.5 = 196 nm

Therefore, our answer is 196 nm

What is the displacement current in the capacitor if the potential difference across the capacitor is increasing at 500,000V/s?

Let given is,

The diameter of a parallel plate capacitor is 6 cm or 0.06 m

Separation between plates, d = 0.046 mm

The potential difference across the capacitor is increasing at 500,000 V/s

We need to find the displacement current in the capacitor. Capacitance for parallel plate capacitor is given by :

[tex]C=\dfrac{A\epsilon_o}{d}\\\\C=\dfrac{\pi r^2\epsilon_o}{d}[/tex], r is radius

Let I is the displacement current. It is given by :

[tex]I=C\dfrac{dV}{dt}[/tex]

Here, [tex]\dfrac{dV}{dt}[/tex] is rate of increasing potential difference

So

[tex]I=\dfrac{\pi r^2\epsilon_o}{d}\times \dfrac{dV}{dt}\\\\I=\dfrac{\pi (0.03)^2\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}{0.46\times 10^{-3}}\times 500000\\\\I=2.71\times 10^{-5}\ A[/tex]

So, the value of displacement current is [tex]2.71\times 10^{-5}\ A[/tex].

A single-slit diffraction pattern is formed on a distant screen. Assuming the angles involved are small, by what factor will the width of the central bright spot on the screen change if the slit width is doubled

Answers

Answer:

y ’= y / 2

thus when the slit width is doubled the pattern width is halved

Explanation:

The diffraction of a slit is given by the expressions

          a sin θ = m λ

where a is the width of the slit, λ is the wavelength and m is an integer that determines the order of diffraction.

          sin θ = m λ / a

If this equation

          a ’= 2 a

we substitute

          2 a sin θ'= m λ

          sin θ'= (m λ / a)  1/2

          sin θ ’= sin θ / 2

           

We can use trigonometry to find the width

         tan θ = y / L

as the angle is small

         tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

         sin θ = y / L  

         

we substitute

        y ’/ L = y/L   1/2

        y ’= y / 2

thus when the slit width is doubled the pattern width is halved

Answers

Answer:

d)    α = 1693.5 rad / s² , a = 392.7 m / s² ,   a_total = α √(R² +1) ,

e)   tan θ = a / α

Explanation:

This is an exercise in linear and angular kinematics.

We initialize reduction of all the magnitudes to the SI system

   w₀ = 3000 rev / min (2π rad / 1rev) (1min / 60s) = 314.16 rad / s

   w = 6000 rev / mi = 628.32 rad / s

   θ = 12 rev = 12 rev (2π rad / 1 rev) = 75.398 rad

d) ask for centripetal, tangential and total acceleration.

Let's start by looking for centripetal acceleration, let's use the formula

          w² = w₀² + 2 α θ

          α = (w²- w₀²) / 2θ

we calculate

           α = (628.32²2 - 314.16²) / 2 75.398

           α = 1693.5 rad / s²

the quantity is linear and angular are related

         

the linear or tangential acceleration is

            a =    α  R

where R is the radius of the drum

            a = 1693.5 R

Unfortunately you do not give the radius of the drum for a complete calculation, but suppose it is a washing machine drum R = 20 cm = 0.20 m

           a = 1693.5 0.20

           a = 392.7 m / s²

the total acceleration is

           a_total = √(a² + α²)

           a_total = √ (α² R² + α²)

           a_total = α √(R² +1)

e) The centripetal acceleration is directed towards the center of the movement is radial and its magnitude is constant

Tangential acceleration is tangency to radius and its value varies proportionally radius

the total accelracicon is the result of the vector sum of the two accelerations and their directions given by trigonometry

            tan θ = a / α

the angular velocity increases linearly when with centripetal acceleration

At what speed, as a fraction of c, will a moving rod have a length 65% that of an identical rod at rest

Answers

Answer:

v/c = 0.76

Explanation:

Formula for Length contraction is given by;

L = L_o(√(1 - (v²/c²))

Where;

L is the length of the object at a moving speed v

L_o is the length of the object at rest

v is the speed of the object

c is speed of light

Now, we are given; L = 65%L_o = 0.65L_o, since L_o is the length at rest.

Thus;

0.65L_o = L_o[√(1 - (v²/c²))]

Dividing both sides by L_o gives;

0.65 = √(1 - (v²/c²))

Squaring both sides, we have;

0.65² = (1 - (v²/c²))

v²/c² = 1 - 0.65²

v²/c² = 0.5775

Inside the wall of a house, an L-shaped section of hot-water pipe consists of three parts: a straight, horizontal piece 28.0 cm long, an elbow, and a straight vertical piece ℓ = 159 cm long. A stud and a second-story floorboard hold the ends of this section of copper pipe stationary. Find the magnitude and direction of the displacement of the pipe elbow when the water flow is turned on, raising the temperature of the pipe from 18.0°C to 40.2°C. (The coefficient of linear expansion of copper is

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude and direction are

7.638×10-4m

80.01°

Explanation:

We know that the coefficient of linear expansion for copper = 16.6×10^-6 m/m-C

ΔT = 40.2 - 18.0 = 28.5 C°

The expansion of horizontal pipe length can be calculated as

= (0.28)(16.6×10^-6)(28.5) = 13247×10^-8

= 0.0001325 m

The expansion of vertical pipe length = (1.28)(16.6×10^-6)(28.5) = 60557×10^-8 = 0.000752229 m

horizontal displacement = 0.1325 mm

= 1.356×10^-4m

vertical displacement = 0.75223mm

=7.5223×10-4m

size of total displacement can be calculated as

√(x²+y²)

Where x and y are vertical and horizontal displacement respectively

= √(0.1325)²+(0.75223)² =

= 0.7638 mm

= 7.638×10-4m

Angle below horizontal = arctan Θ

= 0.75223/0.1325

=5.6772

= arctan (5.6772)

= 80.01°

Therefore, the the magnitude and direction of the displacement of the pipe elbow when the water flow is turned at (7.638×10-4m) 0.7638 mm and 80.01°

a 1010 W radiant heater is constructed to operate at 115 V. (a) What is the current in the heater when the unit is operating?

Answers

Answer:

8.78 Amps

Explanation:

Given data:

power rating of the heater P= 1010 W

voltage of the heater V= 115 volts

current taken by the heater I= ?

We can apply the power formula to solve for the current in the heater

i.e P= IV

Making I the current subject of formula we have

I= P/V

Substituting our given data into the expression for I we have

I=1010/115= 8.78 A

Hence the current when the unit/heater is operating is 8.78 Amp

A homeowner purchases insulation for her attic rated at R-15. She wants the attic insulated to R-30. If the insulation she purchased is 10 cm thick, what thickness does she need to use

Answers

Answer:

she need to use 20 cm thick

Explanation:

given data

wants the attic insulated = R-30

purchased = 10 cm thick

solution

as per given we can say that

10 cm is for the R 15

but she want for R 30

so  

R 30 thickness = [tex]\frac{30}{15} \times 10[/tex]  

R 30 thickness = 20 cm

so she need to use 20 cm thick

How much heat is required to convert 5.0 kg of ice from a temperature of - 20 0C to water at a temperature of 205 0F

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

To convert from °C to °F , the formula is

( F-32 ) / 9 = C / 5

F is reading fahrenheit scale and C is in centigrade scale .

F = 205 , C = ?

(205 - 32) / 9 = C / 5

C = 96°C approx .

Let us calculate the heat required .

Total heat required = heat required to heat up the ice at - 20 °C  to 0°C  + heat required to melt the ice + heat required to heat up the water at  0°C to

96°C.

=  5 x 2.04 x (20-0) +  5 x 336 + 5 x ( 96-0 ) x 4.2  kJ .

= 204 + 1680 + 2016

= 3900 kJ .

if a 1-m diameter sewer pipe is flowing at a depth of 0.4 m and has a flow rate of 0.15 m^3/s, what will be the flow rate when the pipe flows full?

Answers

Answer:

0.35 m³/s

Explanation:

When the pipe's depth is 0.4 m, the area of the circular segment is:

A = ½ R² (θ − sin θ)

The depth of the water is:

h = R (1 − cos(θ/2))

Solving for θ:

0.4 = 0.5 (1 − cos(θ/2))

0.8 = 1 − cos(θ/2)

cos(θ/2) = 0.2

θ/2 = acos(0.2)

θ = 2 acos(0.2)

θ ≈ 2.74 rad

The area is therefore:

A = ½ (0.5 m)² (2.74 − sin 2.74)

A = 0.338 m²

The cross-sectional area when the pipe is full is:

A = π (0.5 m)²

A = 0.785 m²

The flow velocity is constant:

v = v

Q / A = Q / A

(0.15 m³/s) / (0.338 m²) = Q / (0.785 m²)

Q = 0.35 m³/s
