  • What is the force (thrust) of the rocket?

    The engine is mounted to the wheel at an angle θ = 15 degrees from a line tangent to the edge of the wheel as shown.

    You find that when you light the rocket, the wheel will spin a total of 2.25 revolutions in a time 1.5 seconds while the rocket is still burning. What is the force (thrust) of the rocket, assuming the thrust is constant while it is burning?

    The spinning wheel has a mass of 2.1 kg and a radius of 0.55 m, is a uniform disk, and the mass of the rocket can be neglected.

    Give you answer in Newtons. Can someone show me how to do this step-by-step?

  • how fast is the pulley rotating?

    file:///Users/selok/Downloads/PulleyTorque.gif

    The pulley shown above, with radius 0.7 m and mass 4.5 kg, has a rope wrapped around it. If one end of the rope is pulled with a constant force 5 N, how fast is the pulley rotating after it has gone through 4 revolutions?

    Assume that the pulley is uniform, so its moment of inertia is 1/2 M R2, the rotation is frictionless, and the mass of the rope can be neglected.

    Give your answer in rad/sec.

  • will the string break?

    Consider the pendulum shown above. A spherical mass M = 6.5 kg attached to a string starts at rest with the string horizontal as shown in the top diagram.

    The mass is released and swings down as shown in the bottom diagram. However, the string will break if the tension is equal or greater than 170 N.

    At what angle θ, as shown in the diagram, will the string break?

  • Newton's 2nd law?

    Your cat “Ms.” (mass 8.50 kg ) is trying to make it to the top of a frictionless ramp 2.00 m long and inclined 19.0 ∘ above the horizontal. Since the poor cat can’t get any traction on the ramp, you push her up the entire length of the ramp by exerting a constant 52.0 N force parallel to the ramp. If Ms. is moving at 1.70 m/s at the bottom of the ramp, what is her speed when she reaches the top of the incline?

    Part D

    This problem can also be done without the work–energy theorem.

    Since the forces acting on the cat are constant, the cat is moving up the ramp with a constant acceleration. Therefore, if you know her acceleration, you can use the equations of motion for constant acceleration to find her final speed. Use Newton's 2nd law to find the magnitude a of the cat's acceleration.

    Express your answer in meters per second squared to three significant figures.

  • Find the mass?

    I got parts both wrong twice, can someone show me step-by-step how to do this problem?

    You are at the controls of a particle accelerator, sending a beam of 2.10×107 m/s protons (mass m ) at a gas target of an unknown element. Your detector tells you that some protons bounce straight back after a collision with one of the nuclei of the unknown element. All such protons rebound with a speed of 1.80×107 m/s . Assume that the initial speed of the target nucleus is negligible and the collision is elastic.

    Part A

    Find the mass of one nucleus of the unknown element. Express your answer in terms of the proton mass m . answer in m

    Part B

    What is the speed of the unknown nucleus immediately after such a collision?

  • What is the angle of inclination?

    could someone explain how to work this problem? I am completely lost

    A physics student playing with an air hockey table (a frictionless surface) finds that if she gives the puck a velocity of 3.71 m/s along the length ( 1.73 m ) of the table at one end, by the time it has reached the other end the puck has drifted a distance 2.45 cm to the right but still has a velocity component along the length of 3.71 m/s . She concludes correctly that the table is not level and correctly calculates its inclination from the above information.

  • What is the coefficient of static friction?

    A crate of 50.5-kg tools rests on a horizontal floor. You exert a gradually increasing horizontal push on it and observe that the crate just begins to move when your force exceeds 329 N. After that you must reduce your push to 213 N to keep it moving at a steady 27.0 cm/s .

    Part A

    What is the coefficient of static friction between the crate and the floor?

    Part B

    What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the floor?
