Block B is attached to a massless string of length L = 1 m and is free to rotate as a pendulum. The speed of block A after the collision is half its speed before the collision. Block B was at rest before the collision. The mass of block A is 7 kg and the mass of block B is 2 kg. What is the minimum initial speed (in m/s) that block A must have for block B to swing through a complete vertical circle?

Complete Question

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

The minimum velocity of A is v_A= 4m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of the string is L = 1m

The initial speed of block A is u_A

The final speed of block A is $v_A = \frac{1}{2}u_A$

The initial speed of block B is u_B = 0

The mass of block A is m_A = 7kg gh

The mass of block B is m_B = 2 kg

According to the principle of conservation of momentum

$m_A u_A + m_B u_B = m_Bv_B + m_A \frac{u_A}{2}$

Since block B at initial is at rest

$m_A u_A = m_Bv_B + m_A \frac{u_A}{2}$

$m_A u_A - m_A \frac{u_A}{2} = m_Bv_B$

$m_A \frac{u_A}{2} = m_Bv_B$

making v_B the subject of the formula

$v_B =m_A \frac{u_A}{2 m_B}$

Substituting values

$v_B =\frac{7 u_A}{4}$

This v__B is the velocity at bottom of the vertical circle just at the collision with mass A

Assuming that block B is swing through the vertical circle(shown on the second uploaded image ) with an angular velocity of v__B' at the top of the vertical circle

The angular centripetal acceleration would be mathematically represented

$a= \frac{v^2_{B}'}{L}$

Note that this acceleration would be toward the center of the circle

Now the forces acting at the top of the circle can be represented mathematically as

$T + mg = m \frac{v^2_{B}'}{L}$

Where T is the tension on the string

According to the law of energy conservation

The energy at bottom of the vertical circle = The energy at the top of

the vertical circle

This can be mathematically represented as

$\frac{1}{2} m(v_B)^2 = \frac{1}{2} mv^2_B' + mg 2L$

From above

$(T + mg) L = m v^2_{B}'$

Substitute this into above equation

$\frac{1}{2} m(\frac{7 v_A}{4} )^2 = \frac{1}{2} (T + mg) L + mg 2L$

$\frac{49 mv_A^2}{16} = \frac{1}{2} (T + mg) L + mg 2L$

$\frac{49 mv_A^2}{16} = T + 5mgL$

The value of velocity of block A needed to cause B be to swing through a complete vertical circle is would be minimum when tension on the string due to the weight of B is zero

This is mathematically represented as

$\frac{49 mv_A^2}{16} = 5mgL$

making v_A the subject

$v_A = \sqrt{\frac{80mgL}{49m} }$

substituting values

$v_A = \sqrt{\frac{80* 9.8 *1}{49} }$

v_A= 4m/s

a high pressure system is a dense air mass that is usually cooler and drier than the surrounding air. a low pressure system is a less dense air mass that is usually wetter and warmer than the surrounding air.

in general, areas that experience high atmospheric pressure also experience fair weather. low pressure systems can cause the formation of clouds and storms. air usually flows from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure..

Consider a double atwood machine constructed as follows: a mass 4m is suspended from a string that passes over a massless pulley on frictionless bearings. the other end of this string supports a second similar pulley, over which passes a second string supporting a mass of 3m at one end and m at the other. using two suitable generalized coordinates, set up the lagrangian and use the lagrange equations to find the acceleration of the mass 4m when the system is released. explain why the top pulley rotates even though it carries equal weights on each side.
