SSM WWW (a) In Problem 5, what is the speed of the flake when it reaches the bottom of the bowl? (b) If we substituted a second flake with twice the mass, what would its speed be? (c) If, instead, we gave the flake an initial downward speed along the bowl, would the answer to (a) increase, decrease, or remain the same?

The total consumption of electrical energy in the United States is about 1.0 1019 joules per year. What is the average rate of electrical energy consumption in watts? If the population of the United States is 300 million, what is the average rate of electrical energy consumption per person? The sun transfers energy to the earth by radiation at a rate of approximately 1.0 kW per square meter of surface. If this energy could be collected and converted to electrical energy with 40 % efficiency, how great an area (in square kilometers) would be required to collect the electrical energy used by the United States?
Problem 159. A square based cuboid shaped metal con-
tainer, whose mass is 13 kg, has a height of 6 dm, a base

base area is 20 dm2 and in which the level of water is at a
height of 4 dm. Find the total work that is required to stand
the metal container upright on its square base.

- At a construction site, there is a pile of sand in the shape of a cone. The cone has a height of 5 m and a base radius of 8 m. Suppose that the density of the sand is 1400 kg/m3. In order to assemble this pile, energy must be expended to lift each bit of sand (working against gravity) to its final height in the pile. It is known that the energy, E required to lift a mass m (in kg) to a height h (in m) is given by E = mgh (where g can be taken to be 10 m/s2). How much energy is required in total to assemble the pile?arrow_forwardWhile solving a problem, a person ends up with the equation E = 16 kJ + 7 kJ/kg at some stage.

- The mass m is attached to a spring of free length b and stiffness k. The coefficient of friction between the mass and the horizontal rod is u. The acceleration of the mass can be shown to be x=-f(x), where k f(x) = ug+(b + x) 1–- m b² +x² If the mass is released from rest at x = b, its speed at x = 0 is given by 1. Compute vo by numerical Simpson's 1/3 and 3/8 integration and compare between them with different step size, using the data m = 0.9 kg. b = 0.6 m, =0.3, k = 100 N/m, and g = 9.81 m/s. 2. Develop a MATLAB code to solve the equation for both methods. 3. Plot the acceleration of the mass versus x, and find the area under the curve by MATLAB built-in function. 4.
