A box is sliding along a frictionless surface and gets to a ramp. Disregarding friction, how fast should the box be going on the

ground in order to slide up the ramp to a height of 2.5 meters, where it stops? (Use g = 9.8 m/s2.)
A) 2.2 m/s
B) 7.0 m/s
C) 9.9 m/s
D) 24 m/s

This is amazing.  When you read the quest ion, you wouldn't think there's enough information there to find an answer.  But there is !

-- When the block is sliding along the flat surface, its kinetic energy is (1/2)(Mass·v²).

-- When it's 2.5m up the ramp and stops, its potential energy is (2.5m)·(Mass·g).

-- If there's no friction anywhere, these energies are equal.

(1/2)(Mass·v²)  =  (2.5m)·(Mass·g)

(v²/2) = (2.5m) · g

v² = 5m · g

v² = 49 m²/s²

<em>v = 7 m/s  </em>(B)

a 4357 kg roller coaster car starts from rest at the top of a 36.5 m high track. determine the speed of the car at the top of a
andrey2020 [161]
The correct answer is 17.24 m/s. You get the answer by subtracting the two heights of the tracks which are 36.5 and 10.8 m, and the answer is 25.7. Since you already know the height at which the kinetic energy will be coming from, you then divide the amount of weight the roller coaster has to the distance it needs to travel in order for you to determine the speed of the car. So that is, 4,357 kg and 25.7 m and the answer is 169 kg/m. Dividing it to the earth's gravity of 9.8 m/s you'll get 17.24 m/s.

A 3.0-kg mass and a 5.0-kg mass hang vertically at the opposite ends of a very light rope that goes over an ideal pulley. If the
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

acceleration = 2.4525‬ m/s²

Explanation:

Data: Let m1 = 3.0 Kg, m2 = 5.0 Kg, g = 9.81 m/s²

Tension in the rope = T

Sol: m2 > m1

i) for downward motion of m2:

m2 a = m2 g - T

5 a = 5 × 9.81 m/s² - T  

⇒ T = 49.05‬ m/s² - 5 a     Eqn (a)‬

ii) for upward motion of m1

m a = T - m1 g

3 a = T - 3 × 9.8 m/s²

⇒ T =  3 a + 29.43‬ m/s²   Eqn (b)

Equating Eqn (a) and(b)

49.05‬ m/s² - 5 a = T =  3 a + 29.43‬ m/s²

49.05‬ m/s² - 29.43‬ m/s² = 3 a + 5 a

19.62 m/s² = 8 a

⇒ a = 2.4525‬ m/s²

If in a vernier callipers 10 VSD coincides with 8 MSD then the least count of varnier calliper is
ratelena [41]

Answer:0.2mm

Explanation:

The length of one VSD=8/10=0.8mm

The least count of the instrument is the difference between the length of one MSD and length of one VSD

The length of inebriated MSD=1mm

Therefore,

The least count=1-0.8=0.2mm

Two forces F1 and F2 act on a 5.00 kg object. Taking F1=20.0N and F2=15.00N, find the acceleration of the object for the configu
Anit [1.1K]
A) mass m with F1 acting in the positive x direction and F2 acting perpendicular in the positive y direction<span>

m = 5.00 kg
F1=20.0N  ... x direction
F2=15.00N</span><span>  ... y direction

Net force ^2 = F1^2 + F2^2 = (20N)^2 + (15n)^2 =  625N^2 =>

Net force = √625 = 25N

F = m*a => a = F/m = 25.0 N /5.00 kg = 5 m/s^2

Answer: 5.00 m/s^2

b) mass m with F1 acting in the positive x direction and F2 acting on the object at 60 degrees above the horizontal. </span>

<span>m = 5.00 kg
F1=20.0N  ... x direction
F2=15.00N</span><span>  ... 60 degress above x direction

Components of F2

F2,x = F2*cos(60) = 15N / 2 = 7.5N

F2, y = F2*sin(60) = 15N* 0.866 = 12.99 N ≈ 13 N


Total force in x = F1 + F2,x = 20.0 N + 7.5 N = 27.5 N

Total force in y = F2,y = 13.0 N

Net force^2 = (27.5N)^2 + (13.0N)^2 = 925.25 N^2 = Net force = √(925.25N^2) =

= 30.42N

a = F /m = 30.42 N / 5.00 kg = 6.08 m/s^2

Answer: 6.08 m/s^2

Two boxes are connected to each other by a string as shown in the figure. The 10-n box slides without friction on the horizontal
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

T=7.4 N hence T<30 N

Explanation:

The figure is likely to be similar to the one attached. Writing the equation for forces we have

F-T=Fa/g where F is the force, T is tension, a is acceleration and g is acceleration due to gravity. Substituting the figures we have the first equation as

30 N - T = (30/9.81)a

Also, we know that T=F*a/g and substituting  10N for F we obtain the second equation as

T = (10/9.81)a

Adding the first and second equations we obtain

30 = 4.077471967

a Hence

a=\frac {30}{4.077471967}=7.3575 m/s^{2}

and T=a hence

T is approximately 7.4 N
