Answer:

Velocity of Afrom B=21m/s

Acceleration of A from B=1.68m/s°2

Explanation:

Given

Radius r=150m

Velocity of a Va= 54km/hr

Va=54*1000/3600=15m/s

Velocity of b Vb=82km/hr

VB=81*1000/3600=22.5mls

The velocity of Car A as observed from B is VBA

VB= VA+VBA

Resolving the vector into X and Y components

For X component= 15cos60=7.5m/s

Y component=22 5sin60=19.48m/s

VBA= √(X^2+Y^2)

VBA= ✓(7.5^2+19.48^2)=21m/s

For acceleration of A observed from B

A=VA^2/r= 15^2/150=1.5m/s

Resolving into Xcomponent=1.5cos60=0.75m/s

Y component=3cos60=1.5

Acceleration BA=√(0.75^2+1.5^2)

1.68m/s

Answer:

The velocity of the car A as observed from car B is (15i - 22.5j) m/s

The acceleration of car A as observed from car B is 4.5j m/s²

Explanation:

The velocity of car A and car B in m/s is equal:

v_{A} =54\frac{km}{h} *\frac{5}{18} =15im/s

v_{B} =81\frac{km}{h} *\frac{5}{18} =22.5jm/s

The relative velocity is:

v_{AB} =v_{A} -v_{B} =(15i-22.5j)m/s

The acceleration of the cars are:

a_{A} =\frac{v_{A}^{2}  }{r} =\frac{15^{2} }{150} =1.5jm/s^{2}

The relative acceleration is:

a_{AB} =a_{A} -a_{B} =1.5-(-3),negative-because-the-car-is-slowing-down\\a_{AB}=4.5jm/s^{2}

A professor's office door is 0.89 m wide, 2.0 m high, and 4.0 cm thick; has a mass of 25 kg ; and pivots on frictionless hinges.
taurus [48]
In order to answer this question ... strange as it may seem ...
we only need one of those measurements that you gave us
that describe the door.

The door is hanging on frictionless hinges, and there's a torque
being applied to it that's trying to close it.  All we need to do is apply
an equal torque in the opposite direction, and the door doesn't move.

Obviously, in order for our force to have the most effect, we want
to hold the door at the outer edge, farthest from the hinges.  That
distance from the hinges is the width of the door ... 0.89 m.

We need to come up with 4.9 N-m of torque,
applied against the mechanical door-closer.

Torque is (force) x (distance from the hinge).

                                    4.9 N-m  =  (force) x (0.89 m) 

Divide each side by 0.89m:    Force = (4.9 N-m) / (0.89 m)

                                                             =  5.506 N .

A book rests on the shelf of a bookcase. The reaction force to the force of gravity acting on the book is 1. The force of the sh
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

1. The force of the shelf holding the book up.

Explanation:

The free body diagram of the book is as follows:

1 - The weight of the book towards downwards

2 - The normal force that the shelf exerts on the book towards upwards.

Since the book is at rest, these two forces are equal to each other and according to Newton's Third Law the reaction force to the force of gravity is equal but opposite to the weight of the book. This reaction force is the one that holds the book up on the shelf.

A red ball, initially at rest, is simultaneously hit by a blue ball traveling from west to east at 5 m/s and a green ball travel
andrezito [222]

Answer:

C. Between North and West

Explanation:

Since all have equal masses and the red ball and green ball are moving in south and east direction, the blue ball would most likely be moving between the north and West direction.

A 50-kg person stands 1.5 m away from one end of a uniform 6.0-m-long scaffold of mass 70.0 kg.
babymother [125]

Answer

given,

mass of the person, m = 50 Kg

length of scaffold = 6 m

mass of scaffold, M= 70 Kg

distance of person standing from one end = 1.5 m

Tension in the vertical rope = ?

now equating all the vertical forces acting in the system.

T₁ + T₂ = m g + M g

T₁ + T₂ = 50 x 9.8  + 70 x 9.8

T₁ + T₂ = 1176...........(1)

system is equilibrium so, the moment along the system will also be zero.

taking moment about rope with tension T₂.

now,

T₁ x 6 - mg x (6-1.5) - M g x 3 = 0

'3 m' is used because the weight of the scaffold pass through center of gravity.

6 T₁ = 50 x 9.8 x 4.5 + 70 x 9.8 x 3

6 T₁ = 4263

    T₁ = 710.5 N

from equation (1)

T₂ = 1176 - 710.5

 T₂ = 465.5 N

hence, T₁ = 710.5 N and T₂ = 465.5 N

At its lowest setting a centrifuge rotates with an angular speed of ω1 = 250 rad/s. When it is switched to the next higher setti
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Part(a): The angular acceleration is 5.63~rad~s^{-2}.

Part(b): The angular displacement is 2629~rad.

Explanation:

Part(a):

If \omega_{1},~\omega_{2}~and~\alpha be the initial angular speed, final angular speed and angular acceleration  of the centrifuge respectively, then from rotational kinematic equation, we can write

\alpha = \dfrac{\omega_{2} - \omega_{1}}{t}......................................................(I)

where 't' is the time taken by the centrifuge to increase its angular speed.

Given, \omega_{i} = 250~rad~s^{-1}, \omega_{f} = 750~rad~s^{-1} and t = 9.5~s. From equation (I), the angular acceleration is given by

\alpha = \dfrac{750 - 250}{9.5}~rad~s^{-2} = 5.63~rad~s^{-2}

Part(b):

Also the angular displacement (\Delta \theta) can be written as

&&\Delta \theta = \omega_{1}~t + \dfrac{1}{2}\alpha~t^{2}\\&or,& \Delta \theta = (250 \times 9.5 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times 5.63 \times 9.5^{2})~rad = 2629~rad
