Chapter 8: Q107P (page 211)

The only force acting on a particle is conservative force F鈫�. If the particle is at point A, the potential energy of the system associated with F鈫�and the particle is 40 J. If the particle moves from point A to point B, the work done on the particle F鈫�by is +25 J . What is the potential energy of the system with the particle at B?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The potential energy of the particle at B is 15 J.

Step by step solution

01

Given data:

Work done, W = 25 J

Potential energy at point A,UA=40J

02

To understand the concept:

When conservative force works on an object, the change in potential energy is negative of work done.

Formula:

The work done is equal to the change in potential energy.

Workdone = - Change in PE

03

Calculate the potential energy of the system with the particle at B:

As work done is as same as the change in potential energy. Therefore,

Workdone=-ChangeinPEW=-UB-UA25J=-UB-40J25J=-UB+40JUB-40-25J=15J

Hence, the potential energy of the system with the particle at B is 15 J .

To make a pendulum, a 300 gball is attached to one end of a string that has a length of 1.4 gand negligible mass. (The other end of the string is fixed.) The ball is pulled to one side until the string makes an angle of30.0掳with the vertical; then (with the string taut) the ball is released from rest. Find (a) the speed of the ball when the string makes an angle of20.0掳with the vertical and (b) the maximum speed of the ball. (c) What is the angle between the string and the vertical when the speed of the ball is one-third its maximum value?

A1.50 kgsnowball is shot upward at an angle of34.0掳to the horizontal with an initial speed of20.0 m/s.

  1. What is its initial kinetic energy?
  2. By how much does the gravitational potential energy of the snowball鈥揈arth system change as the snowball moves from the launch point to the point of maximum height?
  3. What is that maximum height?

(a) In Problem 3, what is the speed of the book when it reaches the hands? (b) If we substituted a second book with twice the mass, what would its speed be? (c) If, instead, the book were thrown down, would the answer to (a) increase, decrease, or remain the same?

At a certain factory, 300 kgcrates are dropped vertically from a packing machine onto a conveyor belt moving at 1.20 m/s(Fig. 8-64). (A motor maintains the belt鈥檚 constant speed.) The coefficient of kinetic friction between the belt and each crate is 0.400. After a short time, slipping between the belt and the crate ceases, and the crate then moves along with the belt. For the period of time during which the crate is being brought to rest relative to the belt, calculate, for a coordinate system at rest in the factory, (a) the kinetic energy supplied to the crate, (b) the magnitude of the kinetic frictional force acting on the crate, and (c) the energy supplied by the motor. (d) Explain why answers (a) and (c) differ.

Two children are playing a game in which they try to hit a small box on the floor with a marble fired from a spring-loaded gun that is mounted on a table. The target box is horizontal distance D = 2.20 mfrom the edge of the table; see Figure. Bobby compresses the spring 1.10cm, but the center of the marble falls 27.0 cmshort of the center of the box. How far should Rhoda compress the spring to score a direct hit? Assume that neither the spring nor the ball encounters friction in the gun.
