Krishna Iyer answered |
Angular momentum (L) is defined as the distance of the object from a rotation axis multiplied by the linear momentum
L = mv×y
L = mv×y
As the particle moves, m; v; and y, all remain unchanged at any point of time
⇒ L = constant
⇒ L = constant

mcxc = m1x1 + m2x2
(1+2) xc = (1 * 1) + (2 * -1)
xc = -1/3
(1+2) xc = (1 * 1) + (2 * -1)
xc = -1/3
Similarly,
mcyc = m1y1 + m2y2
(1 + 2) yc = (1 * 2) + (2 * 3)
yc= 8/3
mcyc = m1y1 + m2y2
(1 + 2) yc = (1 * 2) + (2 * 3)
yc= 8/3
Hence, the coordinates of the center of mass are (-1/3, 8/3).

The distance of Centre Of Mass of the given right angled triangle is 2L/3 along BA and L/3 along AC from the point B.
Force of magnitude mg is acting downwards at its COM.
Moment balance around B gives:
mg(2L/3)−FA(L)=0
(Moment= × =rFsin(θ)=F(rsin(θ))=Fr⊥)

We know that MI of a ring is mr2
Where m is mass of the ring and r is its radius
When we have ratio of I = 2:1
And ratio of r = 2:1
We get ratio of r2 = 4:1
Thus to make this ratio 2:1 , that ratio of masses must be 1:2

When force acting upon the body results zero, the resulting acceleration due to net force applied is also zero, and hence by the law of inertia the motion of the body either at rest or constant velocity wont change.

As weight of the body (mg) acts along the left side i.e. mg sinx acts along flow of object.
mgcosx acts perpendicular to flow of the object.
The pressure of right half comes on left half hence left half has maximum pressure.

Lavanya Menon answered |
When net Fexternal=0, then the centre of mass of the system remains at rest.
Thus if the passenger move inside the compartment which donot require any external force, so the centre of mass of the "passenger + compartment" system must remain at rest and hence C2 will be fixed w.r.t ground.
Also due to the movement of the passenger, the position of centre of mass of the passengers only will change, thus C1 will have to move in such a way that C2 may remain fixed w.r.t ground.

Now,
Velocity=r x ω(where r is 0.8m)
=0.8x2.3
=1.84m/s

A body is said to be a rigid body if the body remains in its original shape even under the influence of external force. We can also say that if distance between two points of the body does not change with time regardless of external forces exerted on it, then the body is said to be a rigid body.

Ashish Roy answered |
**Explanation:**
A mixer grinder is a device that is used for grinding and mixing various ingredients. It consists of a motor and a set of blades that rotate at high speeds to perform the grinding and mixing tasks. When the mixer grinder is turned on, the motor starts rotating the blades in a clockwise direction.
**Angular Velocity:**
Angular velocity is a measure of how quickly an object rotates or moves around a central point. It is defined as the rate of change of angular displacement with respect to time. The direction of the angular velocity is determined by the direction of rotation. In the case of a mixer grinder rotating clockwise, the angular velocity will be negative.
**Direction of Angular Velocity:**
The direction of angular velocity is determined by the right-hand rule. According to the right-hand rule, if the fingers of the right hand curl in the direction of rotation, the thumb will point in the direction of the angular velocity vector. In the case of a mixer grinder rotating clockwise, the fingers of the right hand curl in the clockwise direction, and the thumb points in the opposite direction, which is counterclockwise or negative.
**Significance of Negative Angular Velocity:**
A negative angular velocity indicates that the object is rotating in the opposite direction compared to the conventional positive direction. In the case of a mixer grinder, a negative angular velocity means that the blades are rotating counterclockwise when viewed from above. This counterclockwise rotation is necessary for the blades to effectively grind and mix the ingredients.
**Conclusion:**
In conclusion, a mixer grinder rotates clockwise, which means its angular velocity will be negative. The negative angular velocity indicates that the blades are rotating counterclockwise when viewed from above, allowing them to efficiently perform the grinding and mixing tasks.

This counterclockwise rotation is necessary for the blades to effectively grind and mix the ingredients.
**Conclusion:**
In conclusion, a mixer grinder rotates clockwise, which means its angular velocity will be negative. The negative angular velocity indicates that the blades are rotating counterclockwise when viewed from above, allowing them to efficiently perform the grinding and mixing tasks.

100 HP = 74570 W or 74.57 KW Now, P = 2*π*N*T/60 where, P is the power (in W), N is the operating speed of the engine (in r.p.m.) and T is the Torque (in N.m). Therefore, 74570 = 2*π*1800*T/60 i.e. T = 395.606 N.m

The internal forces have no effect on the trajectory of the center of mass, and the forces due to explosion are the internal forces. So the center of mass will follow the same parabolic path even after the explosion.

Given, linear density of the rod is proportional to x, where x is the distance from one end of the rod.
Let the linear density of the rod at distance x from one end be ρ(x).
We know that the mass of an element of length dx at a distance x from one end is given by dm = ρ(x) dx.
The total mass of the rod is given by integrating the above expression from 0 to 3m:
M = ∫₀³ ρ(x) dx
We also know that the position of the centre of gravity of the rod is given by:
x_bar = (1/M) ∫₀³ x ρ(x) dx
Substituting dm = ρ(x) dx in the above expression, we get:
x_bar = (1/M) ∫₀³ x dm
x_bar = (1/M) ∫₀³ x ρ(x) dx
x_bar = (1/M) ∫₀³ x (kx) dx (since ρ(x) is proportional to x)
x_bar = (k/M) ∫₀³ x² dx
x_bar = (k/M) [x³/3]₀³
x_bar = (k/M) [3³/3]
x_bar = 3k/M
But we know that M = ∫₀³ ρ(x) dx
M = k ∫₀³ x dx
M = k [x²/2]₀³
M = k (9/2)
Therefore, x_bar = 3k/M = 3k/(k(9/2)) = 2/3 * 3 = 2m
Hence, the distance of the centre of gravity of the rod from one end is 2m, which is option D.

As the particle is exploded only due to its internal energy.
⇒ net external force during this process is 0 i.e. center mass will not change.
⇒ net external force during this process is 0 i.e. center mass will not change.
Let the particle while the explosion was above the origin of the coordinate system i.e. just before explosion xcm =0 and ycm =0
After the explosion, the Centre of mass will be at xcm =0 and ycm =0
Since smaller fragment has fallen on the y-axis.
Let positon of larger fragment be y.
Let positon of larger fragment be y.
m * ycm = (m/4 * 15) + (3m/4 * y)
⇒ (m/4 * 15) + (3m/4 * y) = 0
⇒ y = - 5 cm
⇒ (m/4 * 15) + (3m/4 * y) = 0
⇒ y = - 5 cm

Calculation of Centre of Mass:
To find the centre of mass of the system, we can use the formula:
Xcm = (m1x1 + m2x2 + m3x3)/M
where m1, m2, m3 are the masses of the three particles, x1, x2, x3 are their respective distances from the origin, and M = m1 + m2 + m3 is the total mass of the system.
Substituting the given values, we get:
Xcm = (0.3 kg x 0 m + 0.5 kg x 0.4 m + 0.4 kg x 0.7 m)/(0.3 kg + 0.5 kg + 0.4 kg)
Xcm = 0.12 m + 0.2 m + 0.28 m / 1.2 kg
Xcm = 0.6 m
Therefore, the distance of the centre of mass from the origin is 0.6 m or 60 cm.
Answer:
The correct option is (A) 40 cm.
To find the centre of mass of the system, we can use the formula:
Xcm = (m1x1 + m2x2 + m3x3)/M
where m1, m2, m3 are the masses of the three particles, x1, x2, x3 are their respective distances from the origin, and M = m1 + m2 + m3 is the total mass of the system.
Substituting the given values, we get:
Xcm = (0.3 kg x 0 m + 0.5 kg x 0.4 m + 0.4 kg x 0.7 m)/(0.3 kg + 0.5 kg + 0.4 kg)
Xcm = 0.12 m + 0.2 m + 0.28 m / 1.2 kg
Xcm = 0.6 m
Therefore, the distance of the centre of mass from the origin is 0.6 m or 60 cm.
Answer:
The correct option is (A) 40 cm.

Preeti Iyer answered |
The child is running arbitrarily on a trolley moving with velocity v. However, the running of the child will produce no effect on the velocity of the centre of mass of the trolley. This is because the force due to the boy’s motion is purely internal. Internal forces produce no effect on the motion of the bodies on which they act. Since no external force is involved in the boy–trolley system, the boy’s motion will produce no change in the velocity of the centre of mass of the trolley.

Similarly, (MOI)2 = 3/2 PQ2
(MOI)3 = ½ PQ2
Total MOI = 7/2 PQ2
(MOI)1 = MOI about diameter + PQ2
MOI about diameter = ½ PQ2
(MOI)1 = 3/2 PQ2
Similarly, (MOI)2 = 3/2 PQ2
(MOI)3 = ½ PQ2

Applying Conservation of Linear Momentum
16 x 0 = 12 x 4 + 4 x v => v = -12 m/s
So, KE = ½ m v2 = ½ x 4 x 144 = 288J
16 x 0 = 12 x 4 + 4 x v => v = -12 m/s
So, KE = ½ m v2 = ½ x 4 x 144 = 288J
