Methodology of the project newton's second law of motion |
|
Answer» Newton's Second Law of Motion.Newton's Second Law of Motion states that 'when an OBJECT is acted on by an outside force, the strength of the force EQUALS the MASS of the object times the resulting acceleration'. In other WORDS, the formula to use in calculating force is force = mass x acceleration. |

A wheel of mass 10 kg and radius 20 cm is rotating at an angular speed of 100 revolution/min when the motor is turned off. Neglecting the friction at the axle, calculate the force that must be applied tangentially to the wheel to bring it to rest in 10 revolutions ? |
|
Answer» Given in the question :-
We know the formula, 0 = (10/6)² - 2 × α × 10 0 = 100/36 - 20α α = 5/36 rev/second² or α = 2 π × (5/36) α = 10π / 36 radian/second² . Now, we have to moment of inertia of the wheel. I = 1/2 (0.2² × 10) I = 0.2 kg.m² Since the force is F, Now torque F = F.r 0.2 F Now torque = I α 0.20 / (10 π /36) = 2 π /36 0.2 F = 2 π /36 F = 2 π/7.2 F = 0.87 N Hope it Helps :-) |

A cylinder rotating at an angular speed of 50 revolution/sec is brought in contact with an identical stationary cylinder. Because of the kinetic friction, torques act on the two cylinders, accelerating the stationary one and decelerating the moving one. If the common magnitude of the acceleration and deceleration be one revolution per second square, how long will it take before the two cylinders have equal angular speed. ? |
|
Answer» Given in the question :- Assume , Time = t second.
In case of first cyl. ω' = 50 - 1 × t ω' = 50 - t In case of second cyl. Initial speed = 0 and FINAL speed = ω' put the value of ω' 50 - t = t × 1 t = 25 second. Hope it Helps :-) |

A light rod of length 1 m is pivoted at its center and two masses of 5 kg and 2 kg are hung from the ends as shown in the figure. Find the initial angular acceleration of the rod assuming that it was horizontal in the beginning. ? |
|
Answer» GIVEN in the question :- Length l = 1 m Mass m₁ = 2 kg m₂ = 5 kg. Now we know the formula F₁ r₁ - F₂r₂ = m₁r₁² + m₂r₂² Hence, I = 7 × 0.25 I =1.75 kg.meter². Torque about the PIVOT, i.e T = m₁r₁ + m₂r₂ T = 5 × 0.5 - 2 × 0.5 T = (1.5 × g) Nm Therefore the ACCELERATION α = (1.5 × g) / 1.75 α = (1.5 × 9.8)/ 1.75 α = 14.7 / 1.75 α = 8.4 rad/second² Hope it Helps :-) |

Consider a head-on collision between two particles of masses m1 and m2 The initial speed of the particles are u1 and u2 in the same direction. The collision starts at t = 0 and the particles interact for a time interval Δt. During the collision, the speed of the first particle varies asv(t) = u1 + (t/Δt)(v1- u1) Find the speed of the second particle as a function of time during the collision. |

A car and a bike with the same kinetic energy are brought to rest by the application of brakes |
|
Answer» So,if a car and a bike with the same kinetic energy are brought to rest by the application of brakes. The break of the car has to APPLY GREATER FORCE than the break of the bike. Because,the mass of the car is surely greater than the bike.That's why the bike gains more MOMENTUM than the car. And more the momentum gained by the vehicle,the more the EFFORT is needed by it's brake,in order to stop that particular vehicle. |

An vehicle has a mass of 1500 kg. What must be the force between the vehicle and the road if the vehicle is to be stopped with a negative acceleration of 1.7 ms⁻²? ( Ans: 2550 N in a direction opposite to that of the vehicle) |
|
Answer» Acceleration of the Vehicles = -1.7 m/s². Mass of the Vehicles = 1500 kg. USING the NEWTON's Second law of the MOTION, Force = mass × acceleration. ∴ Force = 1500 × -1.7 ⇒ Force = -2550 N. Negative sign shows that the Force is acting in Opposite Direction. Hence the force of 2500 N is acting in opposite direction. HOPE it helps. |

Explain the first law of motion with example in briefly |
|
Answer» Isaac Newton's first law of motion, also KNOWN as the law of inertia, states that an OBJECT at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and direction unless acted upon by unbalanced force. In other words, if no force acts on an object it will MAINTAIN a constant velocity (for an object at rest that velocity is equal to zero). With the first law of motion, Newton established the existence of a frame of reference for which his other laws of motion are applicable, called the inertial frame of reference. An inertial frame of reference is ONE in which the observer is MOVING at constant velocity (which includes being stationary). |

a 150 gram tennis ball coming at a speed of 40 m per second is hit straight back by a bat to speed of 60 M per second the magnitude of the average force on the ball when it is in contact for 5ms with the bat is |
|
Answer» Force = MASS × Acceleration From the question we can get the acceleration. Acceleration = change in velocity ÷ TIME This equals to : (60 - 40) / (5/1000) 20 / 0.005 = 4000m/s² 150/1000 = 0.15 F = 4000 × 0.15 = 600N |

In a typical Indian Bugghi (a luxury cart drawn by horses), a wooden plate is fixed on the rear on which ane person can sit. A bugghi of mass 200 kg is moving at a speed of 10 km/hr. As it overtakes a schoolboy walking at a speed of 4 km/hr, the boy sits on the wooden plate.If the mass of the boy is 25 kg, what will be the new velocity of the bugghi? |
|
Answer» Thanks for the question! ANSWER:: Mass of the Bugghi , m₁ = 200 kg Velocity of Bugghi , v₁ = 10 km/hr Mass of BOY , m₂ = 2.5 kg Velocity of boy , v₂ = 4 km/hr If we TAKE Buggie and boy as SYSTEM then TOTAL momentum before the process of sitting will remain constant after the process of sitting. m₁v₁ = m₂v₂ = (m₁+m₂) v 200 x 10 + 25 x 4 = (200+25) v v = 2100/225 = 28/3 km/hr = 9.3 km/hr Hope it helps! |

A block at rest explodes into three parts. Two parts start moving along X and Y axes respectively with equal speeds of 10 m/s. Find the initial velocity of the third part. |
|
Answer» Thanks for asking the QUESTION! ANSWER:: The block EXPLODED due to its internal energy so , the net external force during this process is 0 . Therefore , centre of mass will not change . Let the body when exploded was at origin of co-ordinate system. If the TWO parts of body having equal masses moving at a SPEED of 10 m/s in POSITIVE x-axis and positive y-axis direction respectively then, √(10² + 10² + 2 x 10 x 10 cos 90°) = 10√2 m/s 45° with respect to positive x-axis And if the centre of mass is at rest then the third part of the body which have equal mass with other two , will move in opposite direction (which is 135° with respect to x-axis) of the resultant at the same velocity. Hope it helps! |
