At, t = 0 force F=(-5.00i^+5.00j^+4.00k^)Nbegins to act on a 2.00 kg particle with an initial speed of 4.00 m / s . What is the particle’s speed when its displacement from the initial point is role="math" localid="1657949233150" d=(2.00i^+2.00j^+7.00k^)m?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Speed of the particle is 6.63 m/s.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

It is given that,

  1. Force isF=-5.00i^+5.00j^+4.00k^N
  2. Displacement is d=(2.00i^+2.00j^+7.00k^)m
  3. Mass is given asm = 2.00 kg
  4. Initial velocity is given as.vi=4.00m/s
02

Determining the concept

The problem deals with the work done which is the fundamental concept of physics. Work is the displacement of an object when force is applied on it. First, findthework done bythedot product ofthegiven vectors, and then find the final velocity of the particle.

Formulae are as follow:

W=FdW=12mvf2-12mvi2

Where,

F istheforce, vfviarethefinal and initial velocities, m isthemass, d isthedisplacement and W is the work done.

03

Determining the speed of the particle

Thework done can be found as,

W=F.dW=-5.00i^+5.00j^+4.00k^.2.00i^+2.00j^+7.00k^W=28.0J

Using this value, find the velocity,

W=12mvf2-12mvi228.0=12(2.00)vf2-12(2.00)(4.00)2 28.0=vf2-16vf2=28.0+16vf=6.63m/s

Hence, the speed of the particle is vf=6.63m/s.

(a) In 1975 the roof of Montreal’s Velodrome, with a weight of 360 kN, was lifted by 10 cm so that it could be centered. How much work was done on the roof by the forces making the lift? (b) In 1960 a Tampa, Florida, mother reportedly raised one end of a car that had fallen onto her son when a jack failed. If her panic lift effectively raised 4000 N (about of the car’s weight) by 5.0 cm, how much work did her force do on the car?

A fully loaded, slow-moving freight elevator has a cab with a total mass of1200 kg, which is required to travel upward 54 m in 3.0 min , starting and ending at rest. The elevator’s counterweight has a mass of only 950 kg, and so the elevator motor must help. What average power is required of the force the motor exerts on the cab via the cable?

In three situations, a single force acts on a moving particle. Here are the velocities (at that instant) and the forces: (1) v=(-4i)m/s,f=(6i-20)N:(2) v=(-3i+j)m/s,f=(2i+6j)N(3) v=(-3i+j)m/s,f=(2i+6j)N. Rank the situations according to the rate at which energy is being transferred, greatest transfer to the particle ranked first, greatest transfer from the particle ranked last.

A force Fin the positive direction of an x axis acts on an object moving along the axis. If the magnitude of the force is F=10e-x/2.0N, with x in meters, find the work done by Fas the object moves from x=0to x=2.0mby (a) plotting F(x)and estimating the area under the curve and (b) integrating to find the work analytically.

A cave rescue team lifts an injured spelunker directly upward and out of a sinkhole by means of a motor-driven cable. The lift is performed in three stages, each requiring a vertical distance of 10.0m: (a) the initially stationary spelunker is accelerated to a speed of 5.00m/s; (b) he is then lifted at the constant speed of5.00m/s ; (c) finally he is decelerated to zero speed. How much work is done on the 80.0kgrescuee by the force lifting him during each stage?
