A puck of mass m = 0.085 kg is moving in a circle on a horizontal frictionless surface. It is held in its path by a massless str

ing of length L = 0.72 m. The puck makes one revolution every t = 0.45 s. Part (a) What the magnitude of the tension in the string, in newtons, while the puck revolves?

Answer:

T = 11.93 N

Explanation:

Newton's second law to the puck in the circular path

∑F = m*a Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in  radial direccion (N)

m : puck mass  (kg)

a : radial acceleration of the puck (m/s²)

Data:

m = 0.085 kg

L = 0.72 m = R : radium of the circular path (m)

θ=  one revolution = 2Π rad

t= 0.45 s

Angular speed of the puck

ω = θ/t

ω = 1 rev/0.45 s = (2π/0.45) rad/s

ω = 13.96 rad /s

Radial acceleration or centripetal

a = ω²*R

a = (13.96) ²* (0.72)

a = 140.3 m/s²

Magnitude of the tension in the string (T)

We apply the Formula (1)

∑F = m*a

T =  (0.085 kg )*  (140.3 m/s² )

T = 11.93 N

A shuttle on Earth has a mass of 4.5 E 5 kg. Compare its weight on Earth to its weight while in orbit at a height of 6.3 E 5 met
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

83%

Explanation:

On the surface, the weight is:

W = GMm / R²

where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the Earth, m is the mass of the shuttle, and R is the radius of the Earth.

In orbit, the weight is:

w = GMm / (R+h)²

where h is the height of the shuttle above the surface of the Earth.

The ratio is:

w/W = R² / (R+h)²

w/W = (R / (R+h))²

Given that R = 6.4×10⁶ m and h = 6.3×10⁵ m:

w/W = (6.4×10⁶ / 7.03×10⁶)²

w/W = 0.83

The shuttle in orbit retains 83% of its weight on Earth.

23. While sliding a couch across a floor, Andrea and Jennifer exert forces F → A and F → J on the couch. Andrea’s force is due n
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

a)  (95.4 i^ + 282.6 j^) N , b) 298.27 N  71.3º and c)   F' = 298.27 N   θ = 251.4º

Explanation:

a) Let's use trigonometry to break down Jennifer's strength

      sin θ = Fjy / Fj

      cos θ = Fjx / Fj

Analyze the angle is 32º east of the north measuring from the positive side of the x-axis would be

          T = 90 -32 = 58º

         Fjy = Fj sin 58

         Fjx = FJ cos 58

         Fjx = 180 cos 58 = 95.4 N

         Fjy = 180 sin 58 = 152.6 N

Andrea's force is

         Fa = 130.0 j ^

We perform the summary of force on each axis

X axis

       Fx = Fjx

       Fx = 95.4 N

Axis y

       Fy = Fjy + Fa

       Fy = 152.6 + 130

       Fy = 282.6 N

       F = (95.4 i ^ + 282.6 j ^) N

b) Let's use the Pythagorean theorem and trigonometry

       F² = Fx² + Fy²

       F = √ (95.4² + 282.6²)

       F = √ (88963)

       F = 298.27 N

       tan θ = Fy / Fx

       θ = tan-1 (282.6 / 95.4)

       θ = tan-1 (2,962)

       θ = 71.3º

c) To avoid the movement they must apply a force of equal magnitude, but opposite direction

       F' = 298.27 N

       θ' = 180 + 71.3

       θ = 251.4º

A 200 kg weather rocket is loaded with 100 kg of fuel and fired straight up. it accelerates upward at 30.0 m/s2 for 30.0s, then
AlladinOne [14]
There are two stages to the flight: acceleration stage and deceleration stage.

m₁ = 200 kg, mass of the rocket
m₂ = 100 kg, mass of fuel
a₁ = 30.0 m/s², upward acceleration when burning fuel
Ignore air resistance and assume g = 9.8 m/s².

Acceleration stage:
The rocket starts from rest, therefore the initial vertical velocity is zero.
The distance traveled is given by
s₁ = (1/2)*(30.0 m/s²)*(30.0 s)² = 13500 m

Deceleration stage (due to gravity):
The initial velocity is u = (30.0 m/s²)*(30 s) = 900 m/s
The initial height is 13500 m
At maximum height, the vertical velocity is zero.
Let s₂ =  the extra height traveled. Then
(900 m/s)² - 2*(9.8 m/s²)*(s₂ m) = 0
s₂ = 900²/19.6 = 41326.5 m

The maximum altitude is 
s₁+s₂ = 54826.5 m

Answer: 54,826.5 m
