Consider a double Atwood machine constructed as follows: A mass 4m is suspended from a string that passes over a massless pulley on frictionless bearings. The other end of this string supports a second similar pulley, over which passes a second string supporting a mass of 3m at one end and m at the other. Using two suitable generalized coordinates, set up the Lagrangian and use the Lagrange equations to find the acceleration of the mass 4m when the system is released. Explain why the top pulley rotates even though it carries equal weights on each side.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

Answer : x ( acceleration of mass 4m ) = [tex]\frac{g}{7}[/tex]

The top pulley rotates because it has to keep the center of mass of the system at equilibrium

Explanation:

Given data:

mass suspended = 4 meters

mass suspended at other end = 3 meters

first we have to express the kinetic and potential energy equations

The general kinetic energy of the system can be written as

T = [tex]\frac{4m}{2} x^2 + \frac{3m}{2} (-x+y)^2 + \frac{m}{2} (-x-y)^2[/tex]

T = [tex]4mx^2 + 2my^2 -2mxy[/tex]  

also the general potential energy can be expressed as

U = [tex]-4mgx-3mg(-x+y)-mg(-x-y)+constant=-2mgy +constant[/tex]

The Lagrangian of the problem can now be setup as

[tex]L =4mx^2 +2my^2 -2mxy +2mgy + constant[/tex]

next we will take the Euler-Lagrange equation for the generalized equations :

Euler-Lagrange  equation = [tex]4x-y =0\\-2y+x +g = 0[/tex]

solving the equations simultaneously

x ( acceleration of mass 4m ) = [tex]\frac{g}{7}[/tex]

The top pulley rotates because it has to keep the center of mass of the system at equilibrium

Consider A Double Atwood Machine Constructed As Follows: A Mass 4m Is Suspended From A String That Passes

A mass (m = 30 g) falls onto a spring (k = 7.3 N/m) from a height (h = 25 cm). The spring compresses an additional amount x before temporarily coming to a stop. What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

x₁ = 0.1878 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use conservation of energy

starting point. Highest point

         Em₀ = U = m g h

final point. Lowest point with fully compressed spring

         Em_f = K_e + U

         Em_f = ½ K x² + m g x

         

energy is conserved

         Em₀ = Em_f

        m g h = ½ K x² + m g x

       ½ K x² + mg (x- h) = 0

         

let's substitute

       ½ 7.3 x² + 0.030 9.8 (x- 0.25) = 0

        3.65 x² + 0.294 (x- 0.25) = 0

        x² + 0.080548 (x- 0.25) = 0

        x² - 0.020137 + 0.080548 x = 0

        x² + 0.080548 x - 0.020137 = 0

let's solve the quadratic equation

      x = [0.080548 ±√ (0.080548² + 4   0.020137)] / 2

      x = [0.080548 ± 0.29502] / 2

      x₁ = 0.1878 m

      x₂ = -0.1072 m

These are the compression and extension displacement of the spring

a tiger leaps with an initial velocity of 55 km/hr at an angle of 13° with respect to the horizontal. what are the components of the tigers velocity?

Answers

Answer:

vₓ = 53.6 km/h

vy = 12.4 km/h

Explanation:

if we define two axis perpendicular each other with origin in the point represented by the tiger leaping (assuming we can treat it as a point mass) coincidently with the horizontal (x-axis) and vertical (y-axis) directions, we can obtain the components of the velocity in both independent directions.We can do it simply getting the projections of the velocity vector on both axes, using simple trigonometry, as follows:

       [tex]v_{x} = v_{o} * cos \theta = 55 km/h * cos 13 = 53.6 km/h[/tex]

       [tex]v_{y} = v_{o} * sin\theta = 55 km/h * sin 13 = 12.4 km/h[/tex]

A Labrador retriever runs 50 m in 7.2 s to retrieve a toy bird. The dog then runs half way

back in 3.85 s. Determine the average speed and velocity of the dog

Answers

Answer:

The average velocity and average speed of the dog are 2.262 meters per second and 6.787 meters per second, respectively.

Explanation:

From Physics we must remember the definitions of average speed and average velocity, both measured in meters per second. Velocity is a vectorial quantity, that is, it has both magnitude and direction, whereas speed is an scalar quantity, which is a quantity that is represented solely by its magnitude. We assume that dog moves at constant speed.

For the case of the dog, we get that average speed and average velocity of the animal are, respectively:

Average velocity:

[tex]\vec v_{avg} = \frac{1}{\Delta t}\cdot (\vec r_{B}-\vec r_{A})[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Where:

[tex]\Delta t[/tex] - Travelling time of the dog, measured in seconds.

[tex]\vec r_{A}[/tex] - Initial vector position of the dog, measured in meters.

[tex]\vec r_{B}[/tex] - Final vector position of the dog, measured in meters.

Average speed:

[tex]v_{avg} = \frac{1}{\Delta t} \cdot (s_{A}+s_{B})[/tex] (Eq. 2)

Where [tex]s_{A}[/tex] and [tex]s_{B}[/tex] are the travelled distances of each stage, measured in meters.

If we know that [tex]\Delta t = 11.05\,s[/tex], [tex]\vec r_{A} = 0\,\hat{i}\,\,\,[m][/tex] and [tex]\vec r_{B} = 25\,\hat{i}\,\,\,[m][/tex], [tex]s_{A} = 50\,m[/tex] and [tex]s_{B} = 25\,m[/tex], average velocity and average speed are, respectively:

[tex]\vec v_{avg} = \frac{1}{11.05\,s}\cdot (25\,\hat{i})\,\,\,[m][/tex]

[tex]\vec v_{avg} = 2.262\,\hat{i}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right][/tex]

[tex]v_{avg} = \frac{75\,m}{11.05\,s}[/tex]

[tex]v_{avg} = 6.787\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

The average velocity and average speed of the dog are 2.262 meters per second and 6.787 meters per second, respectively.

If you weigh 660 N on the earth, what would be your weight on the surface of a neutron star that has the same mass as our sun and a diameter of 20.0 km? Take the mass of the sun to be 1.99×10^30, the gravitational constant to be G = 6.67×10^−11Nm^2/kg^2, and the acceleration due to gravity at the earth's surface to be g = 9.810 m/s^2.p

Answers

Answer:

8.93*10^13 N.

Explanation:

Assuming that in this case, the weight is just the the force exerted on you by the mass of the star, due to gravity, we can apply the Universal Law of Gravitation:

       [tex]F_{g}= \frac{G*m_{1}*m_{s}}{r_{s}^{2} }[/tex]

where, m1 = mass of  the man = 660 N / 9.81 m/s^2 = 67.3 kg, ms = mass of the star = 1.99*10^30 kg, G= Universal Constant of Gravitation, and rs= radius of the star = 10.0 km. = 10^4 m.Replacing by the values, we get:

       [tex]F_{g}= \frac{6.67e-11Nm^2/kg^2*1.99e30 kg*67.3 kg}{10e4m^2} = 8.93e13 N[/tex]

Fg = 8.93*10^13 N.

While making some observations at the top of the 66 m tall Astronomy tower, Ron
accidently knocks a 0.5 kg stone over the edge. How long will a student at the bottom
have to get out of the way before being hit?

Answers

Analysing the question:

Since the stone was dropped, there was no initial velocity applied on it and hence it's initial velocity of the stone is 0 m/s

We are given:

height of the tower (h) = 66 m

mass of the stone (m) = 0.5 kg

initial velocity of the stone (u) = 0 m/s

time taken by the stone to reach the ground (t) = t seconds

acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

** Neglecting air resistance**

Finding the time taken by the stone to reach the ground:

from the second equation of motion

h = ut + 1/2at²

replacing the variables

66 = (0)(t) + 1/2 (10)(t)²

66 = 5t²

t² = 13.2

t = 3.6 seconds

I initially wanted to subtract the height of the student from the height of the tower since the time i calculated is the time taken by the stone to reach the ground and that means that the stone has already hit the student before 3.6 seconds

but since we were NOT given the height of a student, the person who posed this question wants the time taken by the stone to reach the ground and that is what we solved

When an electron moves from one energy level to another during absorption, a specific wavelength of light (with specific energy) is emitted. Electrons are not allowed "in between" quantized energy levels, and, thus, only specific lines are observed. When an electron moves from one energy level to another during emission, a specific wavelength of light (with specific energy) is emitted. The energies of atoms are quantized.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Electrons are allowed "in between" quantized energy levels, and, thus, only specific lines are observed. FALSE. The specific lines are obseved because of the energy level transition of an electron in an specific level to another level of energy.

The energies of atoms are not quantized. FALSE. The energies of the atoms are in specific levels.

When an electron moves from one energy level to another during absorption, a specific wavelength of light (with specific energy) is emitted. FALSE. During absorption, a specific wavelength of light is absorbed, not emmited.

Electrons are not allowed "in between" quantized energy levels, and, thus, only specific lines are observed. TRUE. Again, you can observe just the transition due the change of energy of an electron in the quantized energy level

When an electron moves from one energy level to another during emission, a specific wavelength of light (with specific energy) is emitted. TRUE. The electron decreases its energy releasing a specific wavelength of light.

The energies of atoms are quantized. TRUE. In fact, the energy of all subatomic, atomic, and molecular particles is quantized.

The reason why atoms emit only specific wavelengths is because the energy levels in atoms are quantized.

Max Plank introduced the idea of quantization of energy in the early 1900s. He introduced the idea that energy can only take on certain specific values. This idea was later extended to atoms by Neils Bohr.

The following statements explain why atoms only emit certain wavelengths of light when they are excited;

 When an electron moves from one energy level to another during emission, a specific wavelength of light (with specific energy) is emitted. Electrons are not allowed "in between" quantized energy levels, and, thus, only specific lines are observed. The energies of atoms are quantized.

Explanation:

In a resonance experiment, the amplitude of the system is plotted as a function of the frequency, finding maximums for the values ​​where some natural frequency of the system coincides with the excitation frequency.

In a Fourier transform spectrum, the amplitude of the frequencies present is the signal, whereby each peak corresponds to a natural frequency of the system.

Plato users

For the potential energy, statement 1 and statement 4 are correct.

The potential energy of the object the energy of the object in its steady position. When the object is at rest, the energy of the object in that condition is called potential energy.

Let us consider an electron having charge [tex]e[/tex] is moving the distance [tex]d[/tex] in uniform electric field E.

Its potential energy can be written as,

[tex]P = eEd[/tex]

Where P is the potential energy and E is the electric field.

Hence, the potential energy of the electron is associated with the electric field.

The electric force can be written as,

[tex]F =eE[/tex]

Where [tex]F[/tex] is the electric force, [tex]E[/tex] is the electric field and [tex]e[/tex] is the charge on the electron.

So, the potential energy can be written as,

[tex]P=Fd[/tex]

Hence, the potential energy is related to electric force.

Answers

The correct arrangement of the question is;

If a projectile hits a stationary target, and the projectile continues to travel in the same direction,

A) the mass of the projectile is less than the mass of the target.

B) the mass of the projectile is equal to the mass of the target.

C) the mass of the projectile is greater than the mass of the target.

D) nothing can be said about the masses of the projectile and target without further information.

E) this is an unphysical situation and will not actually happen.

Answer:

Option C: The mass of the projectile is greater than the mass of the target.

Explanation:

We want to find what will happen when a projectile continues in motion after it hits a target.

Now, for the projectile to keep moving in that direction after it hits the target, it means it had a force bigger than the force of the target to overpower it and force it to move with it.

Now, from law of inertia, Force = ma.

But in this case acceleration is 0 because the speed of the projectile is constant.

Thus, the force depends on the mass. So for a higher force, the mass of the projectile has to be more than that of the stationary object.

Thus, option C is correct

Suppose a star the size of our Sun, but with mass 9.0 times as great, were rotating at a speed of 1.0 revolution every 7.0 days. If it were to undergo gravitational collapse to a neutron star of radius 13 km , losing three-quarters of its mass in the process, what would its rotation speed be

Answers

Answer:

Its rotation will be 3.89x10⁴ rad/s.

Explanation:

We can find the rotation speed by conservation of the angular momentum:

[tex] L_{i} = L_{f} [/tex]

[tex] I_{i}\omega_{i} = I_{f}\omega_{f} [/tex]   (1)

The initial angular speed is:

[tex] \omega_{i} = \frac{1 rev}{7 d} = 0.14 \frac{rev}{d} [/tex]

The moment of inertia (I) of a sphere is:

[tex] I = \frac{2}{5}mr^{2} [/tex]    (2)

Where m is 9 times the sun's mass and r is the sun's radius

By entering equation (2) into (1) we have:

[tex] \frac{2}{5}m_{i}r_{i}^{2}\omega_{i} = \frac{2}{5}m_{f}r_{f}^{2}\omega_{f} [/tex]

[tex]9m_{sun}(696342 km)^{2}0.14\frac{rev}{d} = \frac{3}{4}9m_{sun}(13 km)^{2}\omega_{f}[/tex]

[tex]\omega_{f} = \frac{4}{3}*0.14 \frac{rev}{d}(\frac{696342 km}{13 km})^{2} = 5.36 \cdot 10^{8} \frac{rev}{d}*\frac{1 d}{24 h}*\frac{1 h}{3600 s}*\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev} = 3.89 \cdot 10^{4} rad/s[/tex]          

Hence, its rotation will be 3.89x10⁴ rad/s.

The density of water is 1000 kg/m3, and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2. The total mechanical energy of the river per unit mass is kJ/kg. The power generation potential of the entire river at that location is MW..

Answers

Answer:

1. 0.574 kJ/kg

2. 315.7 MW

Explanation:

1. The mechanical energy per unit mass of the river is given by:

[tex] E_{m} = E_{k} + E_{p} [/tex]

[tex] E_{m} = \frac{1}{2}v^{2} + gh [/tex]

Where:

Ek is the kinetic energy

Ep is the potential energy

v is the speed of the river = 3 m/s

g is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h is the height = 58 m

[tex] E_{m} = \frac{1}{2}(3 m/s)^{2} + 9.81 m/s^{2}*58 m = 0.574 kJ/Kg [/tex]

Hence, the total mechanical energy of the river is 0.574 kJ/kg.

[tex] P = m(t)E_{m} = \rho*V(t)*E_{m} = 1000 kg/m^{3}*550 m^{3}/s*0.574 kJ/kg = 315.7 MW [/tex]

Therefore, the power generation potential of the entire river is 315.7 MW.

I hope it helps you!

4. According to Newton’s law of cooling, if an object at temperature T is immersed in a medium having the constant temperature M, then the rate of change of T is proportional to the difference of temperature M − T. This gives the differential equation dT dt = k(M − T). (a) Solve the differential equation for T. (b) A thermometer reading 100◦F is placed in a medium having a constant temperature of 70◦F. After 6 min, the thermometer reads 80◦F. What is the reading after 20 min?

Answers

Answer:

a) The solution of the differential equation is [tex]T(t) = M + (T_{o}-M) \cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }[/tex].

b) The reading after 20 minutes is approximately 70.770 ºF.

Explanation:

a) Newton's law of cooling is represented by the following ordinary differential equation:

[tex]\frac{dT}{dt} = -\frac{T-M}{\tau}[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Where:

[tex]\frac{dT}{dt}[/tex] - Rate of change of temperature of the object in time, measured in Fahrenheit per minute.

[tex]\tau[/tex] - Time constant, measured in minutes.

[tex]T[/tex] - Temperature of the object, measured in Fahrenheit.

[tex]M[/tex] - Medium temperature, measured in Fahrenheit.

Now we proceed to solve the differential equation:

[tex]\frac{dT}{T-M} = -\frac{t}{\tau}[/tex]

[tex]\int {\frac{dT}{T-M} } = -\frac{1}{\tau} \int \, dt[/tex]

[tex]\ln (T-M) = -\frac{t}{\tau} + C[/tex]

[tex]T(t) -M = (T_{o}-M)\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }[/tex]

[tex]T(t) = M + (T_{o}-M) \cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }[/tex] (Eq. 2)

Where:

[tex]t[/tex] -Time, measured in minutes.

[tex]T_{o}[/tex] - Initial temperature of the object, measured in Fahrenheit.

b) From (Eq. 2) we obtain the time constant of the cooling equation for the object: ([tex]M = 70\,^{\circ}F[/tex], [tex]T_{o} = 100\,^{\circ}F[/tex], [tex]t = 6\,min[/tex], [tex]T(t) = 80\,^{\circ}F[/tex])

[tex]80\,^{\circ}F = 70\,^{\circ}F + (100\,^{\circ}F-70\,^{\circ}F)\cdot e^{-\frac{6\,min}{\tau} }[/tex]

[tex]e^{-\frac{6\,min}{\tau} } = \frac{80\,^{\circ}F-70\,^{\circ}F}{100\,^{\circ}F-70\,^{\circ}F}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-\frac{6\,min}{\tau} } = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]-\frac{6\,min}{\tau} = \ln \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\tau = -\frac{6\,min}{\ln \frac{1}{3} }[/tex]

[tex]\tau = 5.461\,min[/tex]

The cooling equation of the object is [tex]T(t) = 70 +30\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{5.461} }[/tex] and the temperature of the object after 20 minutes is:

[tex]T(20) = 70+30\cdot e^{-\frac{20}{5.461} }[/tex]

[tex]T(20) \approx 70.770\,^{\circ}F[/tex]

The reading after 20 minutes is approximately 70.770 ºF.

A microwave oven operates at 2.50 GHzGHz . What is the wavelength of the radiation produced by this appliance? Express the wavelength numerically in nanometers.

Answers

Answer:

The wavelength is [tex]\lambda  =  1.2  * 10^8 nm[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The frequency of operation of the microwave is  [tex]f =  2.50 GHz  =  2.50 *10^{9} \ Hz[/tex]

     Generally the wavelength is mathematically represented as

          [tex]\lambda  =  \frac{c}{f}[/tex]

Here c is the speed of light with value [tex]c =  3.0 *10^{8} \  m/s[/tex]

So  

         [tex]\lambda  =  \frac{3.0 *10^{8}}{  2.50 *10^{9}}[/tex]

=>       [tex]\lambda  =  0.12 \  m [/tex]

converting to nanometer

           [tex]\lambda  =  1.2  * 10^8 nm[/tex]


Objects want to keep doing the same thing is a way of stating ....

Answers

Answer:

Objects want to keep doing the same thing is a way of stating Newtons First Law.

The correct option is (a) inertia. "Objects want to keep doing the same thing" it implies a connection to the principle of inertia in physics. Inertia is the property of matter that resists changes in its state of motion or rest.

According to Newton's first law of motion, an object will remain at rest or continue moving in a straight line at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force. This property is commonly known as "the law of inertia." In other words, objects tend to maintain their current state of motion (whether at rest or in motion) unless influenced by an external force.

When we say "Objects want to keep doing the same thing," we're drawing an analogy between this scientific principle and human behavior. It suggests that objects, like humans, have a natural inclination to resist change and continue their current course of action. This analogy helps convey the idea that objects exhibit a tendency to persist in their existing state.

"Objects want to keep doing the same thing" to inertia emphasizes the notion that objects, like humans, tend to maintain their current state of motion or rest unless influenced by an external force.

Question 1-1: In each case, lifting or pushing, why must you exert a force to keep the object moving at a constant velocity?

Answers

Answer:

We must apply a force to keep the object moving at a constant velocity due to gravitational force or weight (in case of lifting), and due to frictional force (in case of pushing).

Explanation:

LIFTING:

When an object is lifted, we first need to overcome the force exerted on it by the field of gravity. Due to this force, which is also called the weight of object, we must apply a force on the object to keep it moving at constant speed, otherwise the gravity force will cause the object to slow down and eventually fall back on ground.

PUSHING:

When pushing an object the person must apply the force to first overcome the frictional force. The frictional force acts in opposite direction of motion. Thus, to move the object at constant speed we must apply force to it.

Hence, we must apply a force to keep the object moving at a constant velocity due to gravitational force or weight (in case of lifting), and due to frictional force (in case of pushing).
