20:29:14 prin phy and gen phy problem 4.02 net force 265 N on bike and rider accelerates at 2.30 m/s^2, mass of bike and rider
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> f = m(a) m = f/a = 265/2.3 = 115.22 kg confidence assessment: 3
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
20:29:23 A force Fnet acting on mass m results in acceleration a, where a = Fnet / m. We are given Fnet and a, so we can solve the equation to find m. Multiplying both sides by m we get a * m = Fnet / m * m so a * m = Fnet. Dividing both sides of this equation by a we have m = Fnet / a = 265 N / (2.30 m/s^2) = 115 (kg m/s^2) / (m/s^2) = 115 kg.

20:30:28 prin phy and gen phy problem 4.07 force to accelerate 7 g pellet to 125 m/s in .7 m barrel
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> a = (vf^2 - v0^2) / 2('ds) = 125^2 / 1.6 = 9765.63 m/s/s f = .007 * a = 68.36 N confidence assessment: 3

20:31:00 ** The initial velocity of the bullet is zero and the final velocity is 175 m/s. If we assume uniform acceleration (not necessarily the case but not a bad first approximation) the average velocity is (0 + 125 m/s) / 2 = 62.5 m/s and the time required for the trip down the barrel is .7 m / (62.5 m/s) = .011 sec, approx.. Acceleration is therefore rate of velocity change = `dv / `dt = (125 m/s - 0 m/s) / (.11 sec) = 11000 m/s^2, approx.. The force on the bullet is therefore F = m a = .007 kg * 11000 m/s^2 = 77 N approx. **

20:31:50 gen phy 4.08. breaking strength 22 N, accel 2.5 m/s^2 breaks line. What can we say about the mass of the fish?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> m = f/a = 22/2.5 = 8.8 kg fish must have had higher mass than 8.8 kg or have weighed more than 19.4 lbs confidence assessment: 3

20:33:58 The fish is being pulled upward by the tension, downward by gravity. The net force on the fish is therefore equal to the tension in the line, minus the force exerted by gravity. In symbols, Fnet = T - m g, where m is the mass of the fish. To accelerate a fish of mass m upward at 2.5 m/s^2 the net force must be Fnet = m a = m * 2.5 m/s^2. Combined with the preceding we have the condition m * 2.5 m/s^2 = T - m g so that to provide this force we require T = m * 2.5 m/s^2 + m g = m * 2.5 m/s^2 + m * 9.8 m/s^2 = m * 12.3 m/s^2. We know that the line breaks, so the tension must exceed the 22 N breaking strength of the line. So T > 22 N. Thus m * 12.3 m/s^2 > 22 N. Solving this inequality for m we get m > 22 N / (12.3 m/s^2) = 22 kg m/s^2 / (12.3 m/s^2) = 1.8 kg. The fish has a mass exceeding 1.8 kg.

20:34:07 univ phy 4.38*parachutist 55 kg with parachute, upward 620 N force. What are the weight and acceleration of parachutist?

20:34:13 Describe the free body diagram you drew.
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> ok confidence assessment: 3
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
20:34:56 The weight of the parachutist is 55 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 540 N, approx.. So the parachutist experiences a downward force of 540 N and an upward force of 620 N. Choosing upward as the positive direction the forces are -540 N and + 620 N, so the net force is -540 + 620 N = 80 N. Your free body diagram should clearly show these two forces, one acting upward and the other downward. The acceleration of the parachutist is a = Fnet / m = +80 N / (55 kg) = 1.4 m/s^2, approx..

20:35:06 univ phy (4.34 10th edition) fish on balance, reading 60 N when accel is 2.45 m/s^2 up; find true weight, situation when balance reads 30 N, balance reading when cable breaks What is the net force on the fish when the balance reads 60 N? What is the true weight of the fish, under what circumstances will the balance read 30 N, and what will the balance read when the cable breaks?

20:35:17 ** Weight is force exerted by gravity. Net force is Fnet = m * a. The forces acting on the fish are the 50 N upward force exerted by the cable and the downward force m g exerted by gravity. So m a = 50 N - m g, which we solve for m to get m = 50 N / (a + g) = 50 N / (2.45 m/s^2 + 9.8 m/s^2) = 50 N / 12.25 m/s^2 = 4 kg. If the balance reads 30 N then Fnet is still m * a and we have m a = 30 N - m g = 30 N - 4 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = -9.2 N so a = -9.2 N / (4 kg) = -2.3 m/s^2; i.e., the elevator is accelerating downward at 2.3 m/s^2. If the cable breaks then the fish and everything else in the elevator will accelerate downward at 9.8 m/s^2. Net force will be -m g; net force is also Fbalance - m g. So -m g = Fbalance - m g and we conclude that the balance exerts no force. So it reads 0. **

20:36:01 STUDENT QUESTION: I had trouble with the problems involving tension in lines. For example the Fish prob. Prob#9 A person yanks a fish out of water at 4.5 m/s^2 acceleration. His line is rated at 22 Newtons Max, His line breaks, What is the mass of the fish. Here's what I did. Sum of F = Fup + F down -22 N = 4.5 m/s^2 * m(fish) - 9.8 m/s^2 * m(fish) -22N = -5.3 m/s^2 m(fish) m(fish) = 4.2 kg I know its wrong, I just don't know what to do.I had the same problem with the elevator tension on problem 17.

20:39:26 ** Think in terms of net force. The net force on the fish must be Fnet = m a = m * 4.5 m/s^2. Net force is tension + weight = T - m g, assuming the upward direction is positive. So T - m g = m a and T = m a + m g. Factoring out m we have T = m ( a + g ) so that m = T / (a + g) = 22 N / (4.5 m/s^2 + 9.8 m/s^2) = 22 N / (14.3 m/s^2) = 1.8 kg, approx.. The same principles apply with the elevator. **

RESPONSE --> ok so a few problems before, using 2.5 m/s/s and 22 N i should have had 22 - m(9.8) = m(2.5) 22 = 12.3(m) m = 1.789 kg i wasn't used to a tension problem either but this was a clearer explanation, thank you. self critique assessment: 2
