The figure shows a 100-kg block being released from rest from a height of 1.0 m. It then takes it 0.90 s to reach the floor. What is the mass m of the other block? The pulley has no appreciable mass or friction.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The mass of the another block is 60 kg.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block M= 100 kg

Height = 1.0 m

Time = 0.90 s

Let the mass of the other block is m.

We need to calculate the acceleration of each block

Using equation of motion

[tex]s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]1.0=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times a\times(0.90)^2[/tex]

[tex]a=\dfrac{2\times1.0}{(0.90)^2}[/tex]

[tex]a=2.46\ m/s^2[/tex]

We need to calculate the mass of the other block

Using newton's second law

The net force of the block M

[tex]Ma=Mg-T[/tex]

[tex]T=Mg-Ma[/tex]....(I)

The net force of the block m

[tex]ma=T-mg[/tex]

Put the value of T from equation (I)

[tex]ma=Mg-Ma-mg[/tex]

[tex]m(a+g)=M(g-a)[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{M(g-a)}{(a+g)}[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]m=\dfrac{100(9.8-2.46)}{2.46+9.8}[/tex]

[tex]m=59.8\ \approx60\ kg[/tex]

Hence, The mass of the another block is 60 kg.

The value of the mass of the second block along the pulley is 296.9 kg.

The given parameters;

mass of the block, m = 100 kg

height of the block, h = 1 m

time of motion, t = 0.9 s

The acceleration of the blocks is calculated as follows;

h = ut + ¹/₂at²

h = 0 + ¹/₂at²

h = ¹/₂at²

at² = 2h

[tex]a = \frac{2h}{t^2} \\\\a = \frac{2\times 1}{0.9^2} \\\\a = 2.469 \ m/s^2[/tex]

The acceleration of the two blocks across the pulley is given as;

[tex]a = \frac{m_2g}{m_1 + m_2} \\\\m_1 + m_2 = \frac{m_2g}{a} \\\\m_1 = \frac{m_2g}{a} - m_2\\\\m_1 = \frac{100 \times 9.8}{2.469} - 100\\\\m_1 = 396.9 - 100\\\\m_1 = 296.9 \ kg[/tex]

Thus, the mass of the other block is 296.9 kg.
