The length of a nut cutter is 15cms. A force of 22.5kg is required to break a betal-nut without the aid of the cutter find where should the table nut be placed on the cutter so tht it can be cracket on application of 2.25 kg wt?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

load L=22.5kg wt. `&` Effort E=2.25kg wt. and length of the nut cutter (a)=15cm
To break the nut Lx=Ea where x is the distance of nut from fulscrum
`22.5x x =2.25xx15rArrx=1.5cm`

The maximum force than can be borne by the nut placed in a cracker (shown in the figure) is 200 N. The length of the cracker is 20 cm and the nut is placed at a distance of 15 cm from the free end of the cracker. If a boy can apply a maximum force of 25 N, find whether he can crack the nut. If not, find the length of the extension rod that should be attached to the cracker handle so that the boy can crack the nut.

A uniform horizontal rod of length 40 cm and mass 1.2 kg is supported by two identical wires as shown in figure. Where should a mass of 4.8 kg be placed on the ord form left end (in cm ) so that the same tuning fork may excite the wire on left into its fundament vibrations and that on right into its first overtone? Take g = 10 m//s^(2) .

ABC is a light pipe lying in a vertical plane and of cross sectional area 1 cm^(2) whose small part is in ground to fix the pipe. An ideal fluid of density 10 ^(4) kg//m^(3) is being flown through the pipe by means of external agency. Length of BC can be neglected. The minimum vertical upward force required to pull out the pipe from ground is F=9N . What should be maximum velocity (in m//s ) of the fluid so that pipe can not be pulled out from ground ?

Two thin circular disks of mass 2kg and radius 10 cm each are joined by a rigid massless rod of length 20 cm. the axis of the rod is along the perpendicular to the planes of the disk through their centres. This object is kept on a truck in such a way that the axis of the object is horizontal and perpendicular to the direction of the motion of the truck. Its friction with the floor of the truck is large enough so that the object can roll on the truck without slipping. Take x axis as the direction of motion of the truck and z-axis as the vertically upwards direction. if the truck has an acceleration of 9m//s^2 Calculate: (i) The force fo friction on each disk, (ii) The magnitude and the direction of the frictional torque acting on each disk about the centre of mass O of the object. Express the torque in the vector form in terms of unit vectors hati, hatj and hatk in the x,y, and z directions.
