An electric motor that is 98% efficient runs off of a 100 W power supply. What is the maximum speed the motor could lift a 10 kg mass straight up? What is the maximum speed the motor could move the 10 kg mass across a frictionless surface? (This second question can only be answered in terms of the force that the motor applies to the mass. So, I should have added something like: Assume the electric motor is attached to the mass by a cable that has a maximum force tension of 3 kN.)
A student pulls a 1500 kg suitcase along a flat sidewalk. If the cord on the suitcase breaks when the forceis greater than 50 N, what is the maximum acceleration that the student can achieve with the suitcase?
A 5-kg bag is gently pushed off the top of a wall and swings in a vertical plane at the end of a 2.4- m rope which can withstand a maximum tension Fm. For Fm from 40 to 140 N use computational software to determine (a) the difference in elevation h between point A and point B where the rope will break, (b) the distance d from the vertical wall to the point where the bag will strike the floor. -2.4m A 3m B'
While moving into his new apartment, Miguel decides to tie a rope to one of his moving boxes (m = 62 kg) and drag it across the floor with constant speed instead of carrying it. The rope is parallel to the ground as he pulls, and the coefficient of friction between the box and the floor : 0.40. is με = If he drags the box at a constant speed of 1.5 m/s, then what is his power output? If the floor were frictionless, then what power output would be needed to keep the box moving at 1.5 m/s? Try to answer this one conceptually (no calculations) by making use of Newton's first law. Suppose that Miguel pulls the rope so that it makes a slight angle below the horizontal, with the box still maintaining the same speed of 1.5 m/s as before. Will this require an increase or a decrease in his power output? (Hint: what effect does angling the rope downward have on the friction force the box experiences?)
A 100-lb block is pushed at constant speed for a distance of 20 ft along a level floor by a force that makes an angle of 35° with the horizontal, as shown in Fig. The coefficient of friction between the block and the floor is 0.35. Determine The work done on the block by gravity. F 35°
A hydraulic elevator is lifting two women, a child, and a cat at a rate of 50 ft/min. If their combined mass is 282 Ibm and the mass of the elevator is 1250 lbm, what is the minimum power rating required? Express this quantity in units of Watts. The elevator is 78% efficient.
The mB = 8 kg block is moving to the right with a velocity of vo = 0.96 mls on a horizontal surface when a force P is applied to it at time t = 0 as shown in the following figure. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is Hk = 0.27. Use P = 38, P2 = 72, t1 = 0.15, t2 = 0.35. %3D Р, N P2 P mB P1 t, s t1 t1 Calculate the velocity v in m/s of the block when t = 0.35 s. Insert your answer correct up to at least a third decimal place.
