Answer:
The height of the tower is 8.96 m.
Explanation:
We have, a visitor to a lighthouse wishes to determine the height of the tower. She ties a spool of thread to a small rock to make a simple pendulum, which she hangs down the center of a spiral staircase of the tower. The period of oscillation is 6.01 s.
It is required to find the height of the tower. Let it is l. The time period of a simple pendulum is given by :
[tex]T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}}[/tex]
l is length of pendulum, or height of tower
[tex]l=\dfrac{T^2g}{4\pi^2}\\\\l=\dfrac{(6.01)^2\times 9.8}{4\pi^2}\\\\l=8.96\ m[/tex]
So, the height of the tower is 8.96 m.
Tech A says that as engines gain miles, the spark plug gap increases, which raises the ignition system’s available voltage. Tech B says that misfire occurs when required voltage is higher than available voltage. Who is correct? Group of answer choices
Answer: Tech A is correct
Explanation:
Every vehicle has ignition system and without this system,it will not work. The battery of everything vehicle contain energy that start the vehicle and ignore it to start working. Electrical current move from the vehicle's battery and get to the induction coil, the induction coil increases the voltage in it so that the plug will be ignited. The spark plugs produce fire. The spark plug is connected to the ignition system. Once voltage is produced from the induction coil, electrical impulses move from induction coil to insulated plug wires. The spark plug need a very high voltage from the small voltage battery. Once the high voltage exceed the dielectric strength of the gases, spark jump the gap between the plug's fire end.
An automobile being tested on a straight road is 400 feet from its starting point when the stopwatch reads 8.0 seconds and is 550 feet from the starting point when the stopwatch reads 10.0 seconds.
A. What was the average velocity of the automobile during the interval from t = 10.0 seconds to t = 8.0 seconds
B. What was the average velocity of the automobile during the interval from t - Ostot - 10.0 s? (Assume that the stopwatch read t = 0 and started at the same time as the auto.)
C. If the automobile averages 100 ft/s from t - 10.0 stot - 20.0 s, what distance does it travel during this interval?
D. The automobile has a special speedometer calibrated in feet/s instead of in miles/hour. Att 85 the speedometer reads 65 ft/s; and at t = 10 s it reads 80 ft/s. What is the average acceleration during this interval?
Answer:
a) v = 75 ft / s , b) v = 55 ft / s , c) Δx = 1000 ft
Explanation:
We can solve this exercise with the expressions of kinematics
a) average speed is defined as the distance traveled in a given time interval
v = (x₂-x₁) / (t₂-t₁)
v = (550 - 400) / (10 -8)
v = 75 ft / s
b) we repeat the calculations for this interval
v = (550 - 0) / (10 -0)
v = 55 ft / s
c) we clear the distance from the average velocity equation
Δx = v (t₂ -t₁)
Δx = 100 (20-10)
Δx = 1000 ft
The friends now feel ready to try a problem. Suppose an Atwood machine has a mass of m1 = 2.5 kg and another mass of m2 = 8.5 kg hanging on opposite sides of the pulley. Assume the pulley is massless and frictionless, and the cord is ideal. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the two objects and the tension in the cord.
Answer:
a = 5.34 m/s²
T = 37.86 N
Explanation:
This is the case where two masses are hanging vertically on sides of the pulley. In such case, the formula for acceleration of objects is derived to be:
a = g(m₂ - m₁)/(m₂ + m₁)
where,
a = acceleration of both masses = ?
g = 9.8 m/s²
m₂ = heavier mass = 8.5 kg
m₁ = lighter mass = 2.5 kg
Therefore,
a = (9.8 m/s²)(8.5 kg - 2.5 kg)/(8.5 kg + 2.5 kg)
a = (9.8 m/s²)(6 kg)/(11 kg)
a = 5.34 m/s²
The formula for tension in cable is derived to be:
T = 2m₁m₂g/(m₁ + m₂)
T = (2)(2.5 kg)(8.5 kg)(9.8 m/s²)/(2.5 kg + 8.5 kg)
T = 37.86 N
A 3 kg mass object is pushed 0.6 m into a spring with spring constant 210 N/m on a frictionless horizontal surface. Upon release, the object moves across the surface until it encounters a rough incline. The object moves UP the incline and stops a height of 1.5 m above the horizontal surface.
(a) How much work must be done to compress the spring initially?
(b) Compute the speed of the mass at the base of the incline.
(c) How much work was done by friction on the incline?
Answer with Explanation:
We are given that
Mass of spring,m=3 kg
Distance moved by object,d=0.6 m
Spring constant,k=210N/m
Height,h=1.5 m
a.Work done to compress the spring initially=[tex]\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}(210)(0.6)^2=37.8J[/tex]
b.
By conservation law of energy
Initial energy of spring=Kinetic energy of object
[tex]37.8=\frac{1}{2}(3)v^2[/tex]
[tex]v^2=\frac{37.8\times 2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]v=\sqrt{\frac{37.8\times 2}{3}}[/tex]
v=5.02 m/s
c.Work done by friction on the incline,[tex]w_{friction}=P.E-spring \;energy[/tex]
[tex]W_{friction}=3\times 9.8\times 1.5-37.8=6.3 J[/tex]
The rate of heat conduction out of a window on a winter day is rapid enough to chill the air next to it. To see just how rapidly windows conduct heat, calculate the rate of conduction in watts through a 2.82 m2 window that is 0.675 cm thick if the temperatures of the inner and outer surfaces are 5.00°C and −10.0°C, respectively. This rapid rate will not be maintained — the inner surface will cool, and frost may even form. The thermal conductivity of glass is 0.84 J/(s · m · °C).
Answer:
Q = - 5264 W = - 5.26 KW
Here, negative sign indicates the outflow of heat
Explanation:
Fourier's Law of heat conduction, gives the following formula:
Q = - KAΔT/t
where,
Q = Rate of Heat Conduction out of window = ?
K = Thermal Conductivity of Glass = 0.84 W/m.°C
A =Surface Area of window = 2.82 m²
ΔT = Difference in Temperature of both sides of surface
ΔT = Inner Surface Temperature - Outer Surface Temperature= 5°C - (- 10°C)
ΔT = 15°C
t = thickness of window = 0.675 cm = 0.00675 m
Therefore,
Q = - (0.84 W/m.°C)(2.82 m²)(15°C)/0.00675 m
Q = - 5264 W = - 5.26 KW
Here, negative sign indicates the outflow of heat.
To open a door, you apply a force of 10 N on the door knob, directed normal to the plane of the door. The door knob is 0.9 meters from the hinge axis, and the door swings open with an angular acceleration of 5 radians per second squared. What is the moment of inertia of the door
Answer:
The moment of inertia is [tex]I = 1.8 \ kg m^2[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The force applied is [tex]F = 10 \ N[/tex]
The distance of the knob to the hinge is [tex]d = 0.9 \ m[/tex]
The angular acceleration is [tex]a = 5 \ rad/s[/tex]
The moment is mathematically represented as
[tex]I = \frac{d Fsin(\theta)}{a}[/tex]
Here [tex]\theta = 90^o[/tex] This is because the force direction is perpendicular to the plane of the door
substituting values
[tex]I = \frac{0.9 * 10 * sin (90)}{5}[/tex]
[tex]I = 1.8 \ kg m^2[/tex]
Proposed Exercise - Mass Center of a Composite Body Determine the coordinates (x, y) of the center of mass of the body illustrated in the picture below
Answer:
x = 3.76 cm
y = 3.76 cm
Explanation:
This composite shape can be modeled as a square (7.2 cm × 7.2 cm) minus a quarter circle in the lower left corner (3.6 cm radius) and a right triangle in the upper right corner (3.6 cm × 3.6 cm).
The centroid of a square (or any rectangle) is at x = b/2 and y = h/2.
The centroid of a quarter circle is at x = y = 4r/(3π).
The centroid of a right triangle is at x = b/3 and y = h/3.
Build a table listing each shape, the coordinates of its centroid (x and y), and its area (A). Use negative areas for the shapes that are being subtracted.
Next, multiply each coordinate by the area (Ax and Ay), sum the results (∑Ax and ∑Ay), then divide by the total area (∑Ax / ∑A and ∑Ay / ∑A). The result will be the x and y coordinates of the center of mass.
See attached image.
b) A non-inductive load takes a current of 15 A at 125 V. An inductor is then connected
in series in order that the same current shall be supplied from 240 V, 50 Hz mains.
Ignore the resistance of the inductor and calculate:
i. the inductance of the inductor;
ii. the impedance of the circuit;
iii. the phase difference between the current and the applied voltage.
Assume the waveform to be sinusoidal.
Answer:
i. 43.5 mH ii. 16 Ω. In phasor form Z = (8.33 + j13.66) Ω iii 58.64°
Explanation:
i. The resistance , R of the non-inductive load R = 125 V/15 A = 8.33 Ω
The reactance X of the inductor is X = 2πfL where f = frequency = 50 Hz.
So, x = 2π(50)L = 100πL Ω = 314.16L Ω
Since the current is the same when the 240 V supply is applied, then
the impedance Z = √(R² + X²) = 240 V/15 A
√(R² + X²) = 16 Ω
8.33² + X² = 16²
69.3889 + X² = 256
X² = 256 - 69.3889
X² = 186.6111
X = √186.6111
X = 13.66 Ω
Since X = 314.16L = 13.66 Ω
L = 13.66/314.16
= 0.0435 H
= 43.5 mH
ii. Since the same current is supplied in both circuits, the impedance Z of the circuit is Z = 240 V/15 A = 16 Ω.
So in phasor form Z = (8.33 + j13.66) Ω
iii. The phase difference θ between the current and voltage is
θ = tan⁻¹X/R
= tan⁻¹(314.16L/R)
= tan⁻¹(314.16 × 0.0435 H/8.33 Ω)
= tan⁻¹(13.66/8.33)
= tan⁻¹(1.6406)
= 58.64°

Explanation:
A student is given a small object that is hanging from a ring stand on a nylon thread. The student attempts to charge the object electrically in several ways. Based upon his results, he concludes the object is made of an insulating material. Which set of results must he have collected?
A. The object could be charged only by contact.
B. The object could be charged by either contact or induction.
C. The object could be charged by either contact or polarization.
D. The object could be charged only by polarization.
Answer:(a)
Explanation:
Student must have known that insulators can only be charged when they are rubbed against each other. In this process, one becomes electrically negative while other becomes electrically positive such that both have the same magnitude. The one which gains electrons becomes electrically negative due to the transfer of electrons while others lose the electron becomes positive due to the transfer of an electron to another body.
Assuming 100% efficient energy conversion, how much water stored behind a 50
centimeter high hydroelectric dam would be required to charge the battery?
Answer:
Explanation:
The power rating of the battery isn't provided. But let us assume that it is one of the common batteries with ratings of 12 V and 50 A.h
Potential energy possessed by water at that height = mgh
m = mass of the water = ρV
ρ = density of water = 1000 kg/m³
V = volume of water = ?
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
h = height of water = 50 cm = 0.5 m
Potential energy = ρVgh = 1000 × V × 9.8 × 0.5 = (4900V) J
Energy of the battery = qV
q = 50 A.h = 50 × 3600 = 180,000 C
V = 12 V
qV = 180,000 × 12 = 2,160,000 J
Energy = 2,160,000 J
At a 100% conversion rate, the energy of the water totally powers the battery
(4900V) = (2,160,000)
4900V = 2,160,000
V = (2,160,000/4900)
V = 440.82 m³
Hence, with our assumed power ratings for the battery (12 V and 50 A.h), 440.82 m³ of water at the given height of 50 cm would power the battery.
Incase the power ratings of the battery in the complete question is different, this solution provides you with how to obtain the correct answer, given any battery power rating.

An aluminum "12 gauge" wire has a diameter d of 0.205 centimeters. The resistivity ρ of aluminum is 2.75×10−8 ohm-meters. The electric field in the wire changes with time as E(t)=0.0004t2−0.0001t+0.0004 newtons per coulomb, where time is measured in seconds.
Complete Question
An aluminum "12 gauge" wire has a diameter d of 0.205 centimeters. The resistivity ρ of aluminum is 2.75×10−8 ohm-meters. The electric field in the wire changes with time as E(t)=0.0004t2−0.0001t+0.0004 newtons per coulomb, where time is measured in seconds.
I = 1.2 A at time 5 secs.
Find the charge Q passing through a cross-section of the conductor between time 0 seconds and time 5 seconds.
Answer:
The charge is [tex]Q =2.094 C[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The diameter of the wire is [tex]d = 0.205cm = 0.00205 \ m[/tex]
The radius of the wire is [tex]r = \frac{0.00205}{2} = 0.001025 \ m[/tex]
The resistivity of aluminum is [tex]2.75*10^{-8} \ ohm-meters.[/tex]
The electric field change is mathematically defied as
[tex]E (t) = 0.0004t^2 - 0.0001 +0.0004[/tex]
Generally the charge is mathematically represented as
[tex]Q = \int\limits^{t}_{0} {\frac{A}{\rho} E(t) } \, dt[/tex]
Where A is the area which is mathematically represented as
[tex]A = \pi r^2 = (3.142 * (0.001025^2)) = 3.30*10^{-6} \ m^2[/tex]
So
[tex]\frac{A}{\rho} = \frac{3.3 *10^{-6}}{2.75 *10^{-8}} = 120.03 \ m / \Omega[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]Q = 120 \int\limits^{t}_{0} { E(t) } \, dt[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]Q = 120 \int\limits^{t}_{0} { [ 0.0004t^2 - 0.0001t +0.0004] } \, dt[/tex]
[tex]Q = 120 [ \frac{0.0004t^3 }{3} - \frac{0.0001 t^2}{2} +0.0004t] } \left | t} \atop {0}} \right.[/tex]
From the question we are told that t = 5 sec
[tex]Q = 120 [ \frac{0.0004t^3 }{3} - \frac{0.0001 t^2}{2} +0.0004t] } \left | 5} \atop {0}} \right.[/tex]
[tex]Q = 120 [ \frac{0.0004(5)^3 }{3} - \frac{0.0001 (5)^2}{2} +0.0004(5)] }[/tex]
[tex]Q =2.094 C[/tex]
The charge (Q) passing through a cross-section of the conductor between time 0 seconds and time 5 seconds is 2.094 Coulomb.
Given the following data:
Diameter of wire = 0.205 centimeters.Resistivity of aluminum = [tex]2.75\times 10^{-8}[/tex] Ohm-meters.[tex]E(t)=0.0004t^2-0.0001t+0.0004[/tex] Newton per coulomb.Conversion:
Diameter of wire = 0.205 cm to m = 0.00205 meter.
Radius = [tex]\frac{Diameter}{2} =\frac{0.00205}{2} =0.001025\;meter[/tex]
To determine the charge (Q) passing through a cross-section of the conductor between time 0 seconds and time 5 seconds, we would apply Gauss's law in an electric field for a surface charge:
First of all, we would find the area of the wire.
[tex]Area = \pi r^2\\\\Area = 3.142 \times 0.001025^2\\\\Area = 3.3 \times 10^{-6}\;m^2[/tex]
Mathematically, Gauss's law in an electric field for a surface charge is given by the formula:
[tex]Q = \int\limits^t_0 {\frac{A}{\rho } E(t)} \, dt[/tex]
Where:
A is the area of a conductor.[tex]\rho[/tex] is the resistivity of a conductor.t is the time.E is the electric field.Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;
[tex]Q= \int\limits^t_0 {\frac{3.3 \times 10^{-6}}{2.75\times 10^{-8} } (0.0004t^2-0.0001t+0.0004)} \, dt\\\\Q=120\int\limits^t_0 1{ (0.0004t^2-0.0001t+0.0004)} \, dt[/tex]
[tex]Q=120(\frac{0.0004t^3}{3} -\frac{0.0001t^2}{2} +0.0004t |\left{5} \atop {0} \right[/tex]
When t = 5 seconds:
[tex]Q=120(\frac{0.0004[5]^3}{3} -\frac{0.0001[5]^2}{2} +0.0004[5])\\\\Q=120(\frac{0.03}{3} -\frac{0.0025}{2} +0.002)\\\\Q=120(0.0167-0.00125+0.002)\\\\Q=120(0.01745)[/tex]
Q = 2.094 Coulomb.

While her kid brother is on a wooden horse at the edge of a merry-go-round, Sheila rides her bicycle parallel to its edge. The wooden horses have a tangential speed of 6 m/s. Sheila rides at 4 m/s. The radius of the merry-go-round is 8 m. At what time intervals does Sheila encounter her brother, if she rides opposite to the direction of rotation of the merry-go-round?
a. 5.03 s
b. 8.37 s
c. 12.6 s
d. 25.1 s
e. 50.2 s
Answer:
t = 5.03 s
Explanation:
To find the time interval when Sheila encounter her brother, you first calculate the angular speed of both Sheila and her brother.
You use the following formula:
[tex]\omega = \frac{v}{r}[/tex]
w: angular speed
v: tangential speed
r: radius of the trajectory = 8 m
For you have:
[tex]\omega=\frac{4m/s}{8m}=0.5\frac{rad}{s}[/tex]
For her brother:
[tex]\omega'=\frac{6m/s}{8m}=0.75\frac{rad}{s}[/tex]
Next, they will encounter to each other when the angular distance of the Brother of sheila equals the angular distance of Sheila in the opposite direction. This can be written as follow:
[tex]\theta=\omega t\\\\\theta'=\omega ' t[/tex]
They encounter for θ = 2π-θ':
[tex]\omega t=2\pi-\omega' t[/tex]
You replace the values of the parameters in the previous equation and solve for t:
[tex]0.5t=2\pi-0.75t\\\\1.25t=2\pi\\\\t=5.026\approx5.03[/tex]
Hence, Sheila encounter her brother in 5.03 s

Note: The Earth's radius is 6370km; the Sun's sadius is 696 ×10^3km, I AU is 1.495 × 10^8km)
Answer:
a) E = 1.58 10²¹ J , b) Oil = 4,236 107 liter , e) T = 54.3 C
Explanation:
a) To calculate the energy that reaches Earth, let us combine that the power emitted by the Sun is distributed uniformly on a spherical surface
I = P / A
A = 4π r²
in this case the radius of the sphere is the distance from the Sun to Earth r = 1.5 10¹¹ m
I = P / A
I = P / 4π r²
let's calculate
I = 3,828 10²⁵/4 pi (1.5 10¹¹)²
I = 1.3539 10²W / m² = 135.4 W / m2
the energy that reaches the disk of the Earth is
E = I A
the area of a disc
A = π r²
E = I π r²
where r is the radius of the Earth 6.37 10⁶ m
E = 135.4 π(6.37 10⁶)
E = 1,726 10¹⁶ W
This is the energy per unit of time that reaches Earth
t = 1 dai (24h / 1day) (3600s / 1h) = 86400 s
E = 1,826 10¹⁶ 86400
E = 1.58 10²¹ J
b) for this part we can use a direct proportions rule
Oil = 1.58 10²¹ (1 / 37.3 10⁶)
Oil = 4,236 10⁷ liter
c) to silence the surface temperature of the Earth we use the Stefan-Bolztman Law
P = σ A e T⁴
T = [tex]\sqrt[4]{P/Ae}[/tex]
nos indicate the refect, therefore the amount of absorbencies
P_absorbed = 0.7 P
let's calculate
T = REA (0.7 1.58 1021 / [pi (6.37 106) 2 1)
T = RER (8,676 106)
T = 54.3 C
b) Among the other factors that must be taken into account is the greenhouse effect, due to the absorption of gases from the atmosphere
A diver shines light up to the surface of a flat glass-bottomed boat at an angle of 30° relative to the normal. If the index of refraction of water and glass are 1.33 and 1.5, respectively, at what angle (in degrees) does the light leave the glass (relative to its normal)?
A. 26
B. 35
C. 42
D. 22
E. 48
Answer:
35Explanation:
According to snell's law which states that the ratio of the sin of incidence (i) to the angle of refraction(n) is a constant for a given pair of media.
sini/sinr = n
n is the constant = refractive index
Since the diver shines light up to the surface of a flat glass-bottomed boat, the refractive index n = nw/ng
nw is the refractive index of water and ng is that of glass
sini/sinr = nw/ng
given i = 30°, nw = 1.33, ng = 1.5, r = angle the light leave the glass
On substitution;
sin 30/sinr = 1.33/1.5
1.5sin30 = 1.33sinr
sinr = 1.5sin30/1.33
sinr = 0.75/1.33
sinr = 0.5639
r = arcsin0.5639
r ≈35°
angle the light leave the glass is 35°
A projectile is launched on the Earth with a certain initial velocity and moves without air resistance. Another projectile is launched with the same initial velocity on the Moon, where the acceleration due to gravity is one-sixth as large. How does the maximum altitude of the projectile on the Moon compare with that of the projectile on the Earth?
With smaller gravitational forces and therefor less vertical acceleration, the projectile launched on the moon ... with the same initial speed and direction ...
-- climbs faster,
-- spends more time climbing,
-- reaches a higher peak,
-- falls slower,
-- spends more time falling, and
-- covers more horizontal distance
than the projectile launched on the Earth.
This is not because of air resistance. It would be true even if there were no air resistance on the Earth. It's entirely a gravity thing.
A 1100 kg car pushes a 1800 kg truck that has a dead battery. When the driver steps on the accelerator, the drive wheels of the car push against the ground with a force of 4500 N.A) What is the magnitude of the force of the car on the truck?B) What is the magnitude of the force of the truck on the car?
Answer:The answer is 3000 N.
Force (F) is the multiplication of mass (m) and acceleration (a).
F = m · a
It is given:
mc = 1000 kg
mt = 2000 kg
total force: F = 4500 N
total mass: m = mc + mt
Let's calculate acceleration which is common:
a = F/m = F/(mc + mt) = 4500/(1000 + 2000) = 4500/3000 = 1.5 m/s²
Now, when we know acceleration, let's calculate force on the truck:
Ft = mt · a = 2000 · 1.5 = 3000 N
Explanation:
A worker with spikes on his shoes pulls on rope that is attached to a box that is resting on a flat, frictionless frozen lake. The box has mass m, and the worker pulls with a constant tension T at an angle θ = 40 ∘ above the horizontal. There is a strong headwind on the lake, which produces a horizontal force Fw that is pointed in the opposite direction than the box is being pulled. Draw a free-body diagram for this system. Assume that the worker pulls the box to the right. If the wind force has a magnitude of 30 N, with what tension must the worker pull in order to move the box at a constant velocity?
Answer:
a
The free body diagram is shown on the first uploaded image
b
The tension on the rope is [tex]T=39.16 \ N[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the box is m
The tension on the box is T
The angle at which it is pulled is [tex]\theta = 40^o[/tex]
The force produced by the strong head wind is [tex]Fw = 30 \ N[/tex]
At equilibrium the net force acting on the block along the horizontal axis is zero i.e
[tex]Tcos \theta -F_w = 0[/tex]

Engineers and science fiction writers have proposed designing space stations in the shape of a rotating wheel or ring, which would allow astronauts to experience a sort of artificial gravity when walking along the inner wall of the station's outer rim. (a) Imagine one such station with a diameter of 104 m, where the apparent gravity is 2.20 m/s2 at the outer rim. How fast is the station rotating in revolutions per minute
Answer:
f = 1.96 revolutions per minute
Explanation:
The formula for the the frequency of revolution of a satellite, to develop an artificial gravity, with the help of centripetal acceleration is given as follows:
f = (1/2π)√(ac/r)
where,
f = frequency of rotation = ?
ac = centripetal acceleration= apparent gravity or artificial gravity = 2.2 m/s²
r = radius of station or satellite = diameter/2 = 104 m/2 = 52 m
Therefore,
f = (1/2π)√[(2.2 m/s²)/(52 m)]
f = (0.032 rev/s)(60 s/min)
f = 1.96 revolutions per minute
Thana reminds Alston that because the electric field is uniform, a constant electric force is exerted on the electron. Alston recognizes that, in this case, they can use the kinematic equations to describe the motion of the charged particle while it is inside the region containing the electric field. He asks Thana to write down an equation they can use to calculate the acceleration of the particle while it is inside the region containing a uniform electric field. Which of These equations is correct?
Answer:
a = - e E / m
a = - 1,758 10¹¹ E
Explanation:
For this exercise we can use Newton's second law
F = m a
where the force is electric
the forces given by the product of the charge by the electric field
F = q E
in this case tell us that the charge is the charge of the electron
q = -e = - 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ C
we substitute
- e E = m a
a = - e E / m
we calculate
a = - 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ / 9.1 10⁻³¹ E
a = - 1,758 10¹¹ E
The negative sign indicates that the acceleration is in the opposite direction to the electric field
Nowdothesameproblemwiththepivotatthe toes. A Ballet dancer puts all her weight on the toes of one foot. If her mass is 60 kg, what is the force that has to be exerted by her leg muscle to hold that pose? Assume the pivot is at the toes.
Answer:
The force is [tex]F = 2400 \ N[/tex]
Explanation:
The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image
From the question we are told that
The mass of the dancer is [tex]m_d = 60 \ kg[/tex]
From the diagram the
The first distance is [tex]l_1 = 20 \ cm[/tex]
The second distance is [tex]l_2 = 5 \ cm[/tex]
At equilibrium the moment about the center of the dancers feet is mathematically represented as
[tex]F * l_2 - (mg* l_1)[/tex]
Where [tex]g= 10 \ m/s^2[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]F * 5 - (60* 9.8 * 20)[/tex]
=> [tex]F = \frac{60 * 10 * 30}{5}[/tex]
=> [tex]F = 2400 \ N[/tex]
A flock of ducks is trying to migrate south for the winter, but they keep being blown off course by a wind blowing from the west at 5.0 m/s . A wise elder duck finally realizes that the solution is to fly at an angle to the wind.If the ducks can fly at 7.0 m/s relative to the air, what direction should they head in order to move directly south?
The ducks' flight path as observed by someone standing on the ground is the sum of the wind velocity and the ducks' velocity relative to the wind:
ducks (relative to wind) + wind (relative to Earth) = ducks (relative to Earth)
or equivalently,
[tex]\vec v_{D/W}+\vec v_{W/E}=\vec v_{D/E}[/tex]
(see the attached graphic)
We have
ducks (relative to wind) = 7.0 m/s in some direction θ relative to the positive horizontal direction, or[tex]\vec v_{D/W}=\left(7.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(\cos\theta\,\vec\imath+\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath)[/tex]
wind (relative to Earth) = 5.0 m/s due East, or[tex]\vec v_{W/E}=\left(5.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(\cos0^\circ\,\vec\imath+\sin0^\circ\,\vec\jmath)[/tex]
ducks (relative to earth) = some speed v due South, or[tex]\vec v_{D/E}=v(\cos270^\circ\,\vec\imath+\sin270^\circ\,\vec\jmath)[/tex]
Then by setting components equal, we have
[tex]\left(7.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos\theta+5.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}=0[/tex]
[tex]\left(7.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin\theta=-v[/tex]
We only care about the direction for this question, which we get from the first equation:
[tex]\left(7.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos\theta=-5.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}[/tex]
[tex]\cos\theta=-\dfrac57[/tex]
[tex]\theta=\cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac57\right)\text{ OR }\theta=360^\circ-\cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac57\right)[/tex]
or approximately 136º or 224º.
Only one of these directions must be correct. Choosing between them is a matter of picking the one that satisfies both equations. We want
[tex]\left(7.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin\theta=-v[/tex]
which means θ must be between 180º and 360º (since angles in this range have negative sine).
So the ducks must fly (relative to the air) in a direction 224º relative to the positive horizontal direction, or about 44º South of West.
An electron and a positron collide head on, annihilate, and create two 0.804 MeV photons traveling in opposite directions. What was the initial kinetic energy of an electron? What was the initial kinetic energy of a positron?
Answer:
Ke- = Ke+ = 0.294MeV
Explanation:
To fins the kinetic energy of both electron and positron you use the following formula, for the case of annihilation of one electron an positron:
2[tex]E_p=2E_o+K_{e^-}+K_{e^+}[/tex] (1)
Ep: photon energy = 0.804MeV
Eo: rest energy of one electron (and positron) = 0.51MeV
Ke-: kinetic energy of electron
Ke+: kinetic energy of positron
You replace the values of Ep and Eo in the equation (1):
[tex]K_{e^-}+K_{e^+}=2E_p-2E_o=2(0.804MeV-0.51MeV)=0.588MeV[/tex]
Iy you assume both positron and electron have the same speed, then, the kinetic energy of them are equal, and the kinetic energy of each one is:
[tex]K_{e^-}=K_{e^+}=\frac{0.588MeV}{2}=0.294MeV[/tex]
Two identical objects are pressed against two different springs so that each spring stores 55.0J of potential energy. The objects are then released from rest. One spring is quite stiff (hard to compress), while the other one is quite flexible (easy to compress).Which of the following statements is or are true? (More than one statement may be true.)A. Both objects will have the same maximum speed after being released.B. The object pressed against the stiff spring will gain more kinetic energy than the other object.C. Both springs are initially compressed by the same amount.D. The stiff spring has a larger spring constant than the flexible spring.E. The flexible spring must have been compressed more than the stiff spring.
Answer:
A , D , E
Explanation:
Solution:-
- Consider the two identical objects with mass ( m ).
- The stiffness of the springs are ( k1 and k2 ).
- Both the spring store 55.0 J of potential energy.
- We will apply the principle of energy conservation on both the systems. In both cases the spring stores 55.0 Joules of energy. Once released, the objects gain kinetic energy with a consequent loss of potential energy in either spring.
- The maximum speed ( v ) is attained when all the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
- Apply Energy conservation for spring with stiffness ( k1 ).
ΔU = ΔEk
55.0 = 0.5*m*v^2
v = √ ( 110 / m )
- Apply Energy conservation for spring with stiffness ( k2 ).
ΔU = ΔEk
55.0 = 0.5*m*v^2
v = √ ( 110 / m )
Answer: Both objects will have the same maximum speed ( A )
- We are told that one spring is more stiff as compared to the other one. The measure of stiffness is proportionally quantified by the spring constant. To mathematically express we can write it as:
k1 > k2
Where,
k1: The stiff spring
k2: The flexible spring
Answer: The stiff spring has a larger spring constant than the flexible spring. ( D )
- We will assume that the spring with constant ( k1 ) undergoes a displacement ( x1 ) and the spring with constant ( k2 ) undergoes a displacement ( x2 ). The potential energy stored in both spring is the same. Hence,
U1 = U2
0.5*( k1 ) * ( x1 )^2 = 0.5*( k2 ) * ( x2 )^2
[ k1 / k2 ] = [ x2 / x1 ]^2
Since,
k1 > k2 , then [ k1 / k2 ] > 1
Then,
[ x2 / x1 ]^2 > 1
[ x2 / x1 ] > 1
x2 > x1
Answer: The flexible spring ( x2 ) was compressed more than the stiff spring ( x1 ). ( E )
Julie throws a ball to her friend Sarah. The ball leaves Julie's hand a distance 1.5 meters above the ground with an initial speed of 16 m/s at an angle 32 degrees; with respect to the horizontal. Sarah catches the ball 1.5 meters above the ground.
1) What is the horizontal component of the ball’s velocity when it leaves Julie's hand?
2) What is the vertical component of the ball’s velocity when it leaves Julie's hand?
3) What is the maximum height the ball goes above the ground?
4) What is the distance between the two girls?
5) How high above the ground will the ball be when it gets to Julie? (note, the ball may go over Julie's head.)
Answer:
Explanation:
1. [tex]V_{x}[/tex] = [tex]V_{0}[/tex] * cos[tex]\alpha[/tex] ⇒ 16*cos32 ≈ 13.6 m/s (13.56)
2. [tex]V_{y}[/tex] = [tex]V_{0}[/tex] * sin[tex]\alpha[/tex] ⇒ 16* sin32 ≈ 9.4 m/s
3. [tex]y_{max}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{v_{0}^2*sin^2\alpha}{2g}[/tex]= [tex]\frac{16^2*sin^232}{2*9.8}[/tex] (the g (gravity) depends on the country but i'll take the average g which is 9.2m/s^2)
[tex]y_{max}[/tex] ≈ 3.6677+1.5 ≈ 5.2m
4. [tex]x_{max}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{v_{0}^2*sin(2\alpha)}{g}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{16^2*sin(2*32)}{9.8}[/tex] ≈ 23.5m (23.47)

Which of the followings is true about EMF?
a. an induced emf is caused by a changing magnetic flux.
b. an emf can only be induced in a conducting loop by moving the loop through an area that has a constant magnetic field.
c. an induced emf can be observed by measuring the current that is created.
d. an induced emf and conventional induced current are in opposite directions.
Answer:
a. TRUTH
b. FALSE
c. TRUTH
d. FALSE
Explanation:
The emf (electromagnetic force) is generated in a loop or solenoid by the change in the magnetic flux in a closed conductor path (for example, a wire).
This can be noted in the following formula, which is known as the Lenz's law:
[tex]emf=-N\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt}=-N\frac{d(AB)}{dt}[/tex] (1)
Then, the change, in time, of the area of the conductor, or the change in the magnitude of the magnetic field, the induced emf acquires different values. Furthermore, the loops have a resistance, then, a current can be measured when an emf is induced.
Based on this information you have:
a. an induced emf is caused by a changing magnetic flux. TRUTH
b. an emf can only be induced in a conducting loop by moving the loop through an area that has a constant magnetic field. FALSE
c. an induced emf can be observed by measuring the current that is created. TRUTH
d. an induced emf and conventional induced current are in opposite directions. TRUTH (the minus sing in the equation (1) )
Some types of spiders build webs that consist of threads made of dry silk coated with a solution of a variety of compounds. This coating leaves the threads, which are used to capture prey, hygroscopic - that is, they attract water from the atmosphere. It has been hypothesized that this aqueous coating makes the threads good electrical conductors. To test the electrical properties of coated thread, researchers placed a 5-mm length of thread between two electrical contacts. The researchers stretched the thread in 1-mm increments to more than twice its original length, and then allowed it to return to its original length, again in 1-mm increments. Some of the resistance measurements are shown.If the conductivity of the thread results from the aqueous coating only, how does the cross-sectional area A of the coating compare when the thread is 13 mm long versus the starting length of 5 mm? Assume that the resistivity of the coating remains constant and the coating is uniform along the thread.If the conductivity of the thread results from the aqueous coating only, how does the cross-sectional area of the coating compare when the thread is 13 long versus the starting length of 5 ?

An unstrained horizontal spring has a length of 0.36 m and a spring constant of 320 N/m. Two small charged objects are attached to this spring, one at each end. The charges on the objects have equal magnitudes. Because of these charges, the spring stretches by 0.033 m relative to its unstrained length. Determine (a) the possible algebraic signs and (b) the magnitude of the charges.
Answer:
1.been both -ve charged or both +be charged particles
2. 3.52mC
Explanation:
For the charge particle to cause an extension or movement of the string from its unrestrained position they would have been both -ve charged or both +be charged particles that's because like charges repel.
Now the Force sustain by the extended string is
F = Ke;
Where K is the force constant of the string, 320 N/m
e is the extension,0.033 m
F = 320 × 0.033 =10.56N
2.But according to columns law of charge;
F = kQ1 Q2
But Q1=Q2{ since the charge are of the same magnitude}.
Hence F = KQ^2
Where K is columns constant =9×10^9F/m
Hence Q=√F/K
Q= √10.56/9×10^9
=3.52×10^-3C
= 3.52mC
0.92 kg of R-134a fills a 0.14-m^3 weighted piston–cylinder device at a temperature of –26.4°C. The container is now heated until the temperature is 100°C. Determine the final volume of R-134a.
Answer:
The final volume of R-134a is 0.212m³Explanation:
Using one of the general gas equation to find the final volume of the R-134a.
According to pressure law; The volume of a given mas of gas is directly proportional to its temperature provided that the pressure remains constant.
VαT
V = kT
k = V/T
V1/T1 = V2/T2 = k
Given V1 = 0.14-m³ at T1 = –26.4°C = –26.4° + 273 = 246.6K
V2 = ? at T = 100°C = 100+273 = 373K
On substituting this values for T2;
0.14/246.6 = V2/373
373*0.14 = 246.6V2
V2 = 373*0.14 /246.6
V2 = 0.212m³
The final volume of R-134a is 0.212m³
