Answers

Answer:

A screw is a mechanism that converts rotational motion to linear motion, and a torque (rotational force) to a linear force.[1] It is one of the six classical simple machines. The most common form consists of a cylindrical shaft with helical grooves or ridges called threads around the outside.[2][3] The screw passes through a hole in another object or medium, with threads on the inside of the hole that mesh with the screw's threads. When the shaft of the screw is rotated relative to the stationary threads, the screw moves along its axis relative to the medium surrounding it; for example rotating a wood screw forces it into wood. In screw mechanisms, either the screw shaft can rotate through a threaded hole in a stationary object, or a threaded collar such as a nut can rotate around a stationary screw shaft.[4][5] Geometrically, a screw can be viewed as a narrow inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder.

A 5 kg mass compresses a horizontal spring by .06 meters. The spring has a spring constant of 2 N/m. If the surface is frictionless, find the velocity of the mass when the spring is released.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The frictionless surface implies that the speed of the spring is at a max. When the speed of the spring is at its max, the potential energy in the spring is 0. Use the equation for the Total Energy in a Spring/Mass System:

KE + PE = [tex]\frac{1}{2}kA^2[/tex] where KE is the Kinetic Energy available to the spring, PE is the potential energy available to the spring, and the sum of those is equal to one-half times the spring constant, k, times the amplitude of the spring's movement away from the equilibrium position. Sometimes this amplitude is the same as the displacement of the spring. This can be tricky. But since we are only given one value for the distance, we are going to use it as an amplitude. Keeping in mind that the PE is 0 when KE is at its max, then the equation becomes

KE + 0 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}kA^2[/tex] or to put it simpler terms:

KE = [tex]\frac{1}{2}kA^2[/tex] We need to find the value for KE before we can fully solve the problem we are being tasked with.

Filling in using the info given:

[tex]KE=\frac{1}{2}(2.0)(.06)^2[/tex] Notice I added another place of significance to the 2 because 1 simply isn't enough and the physics teacher in me can't handle that. Simplifying a bit:

[tex]KE=(.06)^2[/tex] because the k = 2 cancels out the 2 in the denominator of the 1/2. So

KE = 3.6 × [tex]10^{-3[/tex]

Now plug that in for KE and solve for v:

KE = [tex]\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]:

[tex]3.6*10^{-3}=\frac{1}{2}(5.0)v^2[/tex] and

[tex]v=\sqrt{\frac{2(3.6*10^{-3})}{5.0} }[/tex] gives us a velocity of

v= [tex]3.8*10^{-2[/tex]

In a pinball machine, the launching spring with a spring constant of 30 N/m is compressed 0.15 m. How fast will it launch a 0.20 kg pinball?

Answers

Answer:

1.84 m/s

Explanation:

Applying,

The kinetic energy of the pinball = Elastic energy of the spring

mv²/2 = ke²/2

mv² = ke².................. Equation 1

Where m = mass of the pin ball, v = velocity of the pin ball, k = force constant of the spring, e = extension of the spring.

make v the subject of the equation

v = √(ke²/m)................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: e = 0.15 m, k = 30 N/m, m = 0.20 kg

Substitute these values into equation 2

v = √[(30×0.15²)/0.2]

v = 1.84 m/s

Answer: [tex]0.05\ mm[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

Cross-sectional area of wire [tex]A_1=4\ mm^2[/tex]

Extension of wire [tex]\delta l=0.1\ mm[/tex]

Extension in a wire is given by

[tex]\Rightarrow \delta l=\dfrac{FL}{AE}[/tex]

where, [tex]E=\text{Youngs modulus}[/tex]

Divide (i) and (ii)

Suppose you have 10 helium-filled party balloons tied to a digital camera, so you can take photos of the core of a storm. With 10 balloons the camera will slowly but surely rise.

Answers

Answer:

 a = 10 ρ_air g [tex]\frac{\Delta P}{m P_o}[/tex]

Explanation:

Let's solve this problem in parts, with the initial data the camera rises slowly, so we can assume that at constant speed, we apply the equilibrium condition

         B - W = 0

The thrust is given by Archimedes' law

         B = rho_aire g V_body

The volume of the body can be found from the ideal gas ratio

         P V = n R T

let's use the subscript "o" for the initial concisions

         V₀ = (nR) T₀/P₀               1

we substitute

          10 ρ_air g (nR) T₀ /P₀ = W

when the storm approaches the pressure decreases, P

       

If we use the ideal gas equation

           V = (nR) T₀ / P

we combine this equation with equation 1

            V = V₀P₀ / P

if we write the pressure

             P = P₀ -ΔP

             

we substitute

            V = [tex]\frac{V_oP_o}{P_o - \Delta P} =V_o \ ( 1 - \frac{\Delta P}{P_o} )^{-1}[/tex]

we expand serie  and eliminate higher order terms

            V = V₀ ([tex]1+ \frac{\Delta P}{Po}[/tex])

with this expression we can write the thrust

             B = B₀ + ΔB

               

Newton's second law for the new conditions is

             B - W = m a

             (B₀ + ΔB) - W = ma

              ΔB = m a

              a = ΔB / m

              a = 10 ρ_air g [tex]\frac{\Delta P}{m P_o}[/tex]

A train accelerates from 30 km/h to 45 km/h in 15.0 second. Find its acceleration and the distance it travels during this time

Answers

Answer:

a. Acceleration, a = 0.28 m/s²

b. Distance, S = 156 meters

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 30 km/h

Final velocity = 45 km/h

Time = 15 seconds

a. To find the acceleration;

Conversion:

30 km/h to m/s = 30*1000/3600 = 8.33 m/s

45 km/h to m/s = 45*1000/3600 = 12.5 m/s

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

[tex]Acceleration (a) = \frac{final \; velocity - initial \; velocity}{time}[/tex]

Substituting into the equation;

[tex]a = \frac{12.5 - 8.3}{15}[/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{4.2}{15}[/tex]

Acceleration, a = 0.28 m/s²

b. To find the distance travelled, we would use the second equation of motion given by the formula;

[tex] S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}[/tex]

Where;

S represents the displacement or height measured in meters.

u represents the initial velocity measured in meters per seconds.

t represents the time measured in seconds.

a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] S = 8.3*15 + \frac {1}{2}*(0.28)*15^{2}[/tex]

[tex] S = 124.5 + 0.14*225[/tex]

[tex] S = 124.5 + 31.5 [/tex]

S = 156 meters

As a ball is released from 10ft above the ground, it falls freely (without friction)
toward the ground, at what point does the ball have the maximum gravitational
potential energy?
Can't be determined
At the top, at the release point.
Half
way
down the ground
At the floor

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula to find Potential Energy is PE = mgh, where m is the mass of the object, g is gravity, and h is the height from which the object can potentially fall. Because this is linear, then PE will increase as either the mass or the height increase (gravity is constant at 9.8 m/s/s). If the mass of the ball being dropped doesn't change, then the only thing that determines this ball's max PE is the height from which it is dropped; max PE ALWAYS occurs at the highest point from which an object can potentially fall. So your answer is "At the top".

A football player kicks a football in a field goal attempt. When the football reaches its maximum height, what is the relationship between the direction of the velocity and acceleration vectors

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - At the maximum height, the velocity and acceleration vectors are perpendicular to each other.

Explanation:

When the football reaches maximum height, then the vertical component of velocity will be zero and therefore the only component of velocity left will be the horizontal component, and acceleration of the object will be downward, due to gravity.

So at the maximum height, there is horizontal velocity only which means velocity is horizontal and acceleration is vertical thus, the velocity and acceleration are perpendicular to each other.
