A father plays with his little son on a frozen lake. They stood facing each other, put their hands together and pushed each other so that they move away from each other. If the father moved away with an acceleration of 0.8 m/s^2 and if he weighed four times as much as his son, determine the acceleration by which the son is sliding away. Assume that the force they exerted to each other is applied horizontally and that the contact between their shoes and the ice is frictionless
To use the principle of work and energy to determine characteristics of a mass being pulled up an incline and determine the power that must be supplied to the system when the efficiency of the input system is considered.
As shown, a 53 kg
crate is pulled up a θ = 50 ∘ incline by a pulley and motor system. Initially at rest, the crate is pulled s = 2.1 m up along the incline. Undergoing constant acceleration, the crate reaches a speed of 2.1 m/s
at the instant it has traveled this distance.
Considering the coefficient of kinetic friction, μk = 0.13, determine the power that the motor must supply to the crate the instant the crate travels a distance of 2.1 m.
If the motor has an efficiency of ε = 0.87 , what power must be supplied to the motor to raise the crate?
