A chain of metal links with total mass M = 7 kg is coiled up in a tight ball on a low-friction table (Figure 9.52). You pull on a link at one end of the chain with a constant force F= 50 N. Eventually the chain straightens out to its full length = 2.6 m. and you keep pulling until you have pulled your end of the chain a total distance d=4.5 m.

(a) Consider the point particle system. What is the speed of the chain at this instant? (b) Consider the extended system. What is the change in energy of the chain? (c) In straightening out, the links of the chain bang against each other, and their temperature rises. Assume that the process is so fast that there is insufficient time for significant transfer of energy from the chain to the table due to the temperature difference, and ignore the small amountof energy radiated away as sound produced in the collisions among the links. Calculate the increase in internal energy of the chain.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) The speed of the chain at the instant is 6.76 m/s.

b) The change in energy of the chain is 225 J.

c) The increase in the thermal energy of the chain is 65 J.

Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

Given data can be listed below,

  • Mass,M=7kg
  • Force,F=50N
  • The chain straightens out to full length,L=2.6m
  • Total distance to pull the end of the chain,d=4.5m
02

Evaluating the translational work done

The translation work done on the chain is given as,

Wtrans=Fd-L2

Substituting 50 N for F, 4.5 m for d, and 2.6 m for L in the above equation

Wtrans=50N4.5m-2.6m2=160J

03

Evaluating the speed of the chain

Part a)

By using conservation of energy, the translational work done is equal to translational kinetic energy, which is written as,

Wtrans=KEtrans=12Mv2

Where v is the speed of the chain relative to the center of the chain.

Substituting 160 J forWtrans , and 7 kg for M in the above equation, we get

160J=127kgV2v2=2160J7kgv=6.76m/s

Thus, the speed of the chain at the instant is 6.76 m/s.

04

Evaluating change in energy of the chain

Part b)

The change in energy is equal to the total work done by the chain is given as,

E=Wtotal=Fd

Substituting 50 N for F, and 4.5 m for d in the above equation

E=50N4.5m=225J

Thus, the change in energy of the chain is 225 J.

05

Evaluating the increase in thermal energy of the chain

Part c)

By using the 1st law of thermodynamics,

E=Wtrans+Q

Where is the change in thermal energy.

Substituting 160 J forWtrans , and 225 J for in the above equation

螖蚕=螖贰-Wtrans=225J-160J=65J

Thus, the increase in the thermal energy of the chain is 65 J.

A runner whose mass is 50kg accelerates from a stop to a speed of 10m/s in 3s. (A good sprinter can run 100m in about 10s, with an average speed of 10m/s.) (a) What is the average horizontal component of the force that the ground exerts on the runner鈥檚 shoes? (b) How much displacement is there of the force that acts on the sole of the runner鈥檚 shoes, assuming that there is no slipping? Therefore, how much work is done on the extended system (the runner) by the force you calculated in the previous exercise? How much work is done on the point particle system by this force? (c) The kinetic energy of the runner increases鈥攚hat kind of energy decreases? By how much?

Question: Under what conditions does the energy equation for the point particle system differ from the energy equation for the extended system? Give two examples of such a situation. Give one example of a situation where the two equations look exactly alike.

A meter stick whose mass is 300glies on ice (Figure 9.49). You pull at one end of the meter stick, at right to the stick, with a force of 6N. The ensuing motion of the meter stick is quite complicated, but what are the initial magnitude and direction of the rate of change of the momentum of the stick, /dtdpsys, when you first apply the force? What is the magnitude of the initial acceleration of the center of the stick?

Tarzan, whose mass is 100kg, is hanging at rest from a tree limb. Then he lets go and falls to the ground. Just before he lets go, his center of mass is at a height 2.9m above the ground and the bottom of his dangling feet are at a height 2.1 above the ground. When he first hits the ground he has dropped a distance 2.1, so his center of mass is (2.9-2.1) above the ground. Then his knees bend and he ends up at rest in a crouched position with his center of mass a height above the ground. (a) Consider the point particle system. What is the speed v at the instant just before Tarzan's feet touch the ground? (b) Consider the extended system. What is the net change in internal energy for Tarzan from just before his feet touch the ground to when he is in the crouched position?

Two people with different masses but equal speeds slide toward each other with little friction on ice with their arms extended straight out to the slide (so each has the shape of a 鈥I鈥). Her right hand meets his right hand, they hold hands and spin 90掳, then release their holds and slide away. Make a rough sketch of the path of the center of mass of the system consisting of the two people, and explain briefly. (It helps to mark equal time intervals along the paths of the two people and of their center of mass.)
