At the start of a hockey game, the referee drops the puck between two players from opposing teams. Each player wants to push the puck in the opposite direction. For several seconds the puck does not move even though both players are pushing on it with their hockey sticks. a.) Identify the forces acting on the puck. b.) Explain why the puck does not move. c.) Describe how one of the players could get the puck to move.

Answers

Answer:

a) puck is subjected to both the forces of the hockey sticks in a horizontal direction,

b)the puck does not move since the sum of the forces is zero

c) changing the magnitude or direction of its applied force

Explanation:

a) The puck is subjected to both the forces of the hockey sticks in a horizontal direction, these forces are of equal magnitude and opposite direction since the puck is at rest.

In the direction of the y-axis (perpendicular to the ice) you have the weight of the disk and the normal to this weight that are also in equilibrium.

b) the puck does not move since the sum of the forces is zero, which implies that the forces of the hockey sticks are of equal magnitude and opposite direction.

c) the player has several ways to make the puck move

* slightly changing the angle of the club and therefore the direction of the force, in this case the disc comes out in the direction of this component

* inclined the stick slightly so that the force has a vertical component and the puck jumps in this direction

* Increasing the magnitude of the force so that the puck comes out in the opposite direction to the player

* The worst case, decreasing its force to zero and the disk comes out in its direction by the other force that had the same magnitude.

1. Calculate the heat capacity of a piece of wood if 1500.0 g of the wood absorbs 6.750.000 joules of heat,
and its temperature changes from 32°C to 57°C.

Answers

Answer:

1.8 J/gºC

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (M) = 1500 g

Heat (Q) absorbed = 67500 J

Initial temperature (T₁) = 32 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 57 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) =?

Next, we shall determine the change in temperature of the wood. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T₁) = 32 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 57 °C

Change in temperature (ΔT) =.?

ΔT = T₂ – T₁

ΔT = 57 – 32

ΔT = 25 °C

Finally, we shall determine the heat capacity of the wood. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (M) = 1500 g

Heat (Q) absorbed = 67500 J

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 25 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) =?

Q = MCΔT

67500 = 1500 × C × 25

67500 = 37500 × C

Divide both side by 37500

C = 67500 / 37500

C = 1.8 J/gºC

Thus, the heat capacity of the wood is 1.8 J/gºC

I have 17 liters of air to a balloon the is 200 kelvin. If I take the balloon to a place where the temperature is 157 kelvin, what is the new volume of the balloon be

Answers

Answer:

The new volume of the ballon will be 13.345 L

Explanation:

Charles's Law consists of the relationship that exists between the volume and the temperature of a certain quantity of ideal gas, which is maintained at a constant pressure, by means of a constant of proportionality that is applied directly. For a given sum of gas at a constant pressure, as the temperature increases, the volume of the gas increases and as the temperature decreases, the volume of the gas decreases.

Charles's law is a law that says that when the amount of gas and pressure are kept constant, the quotient that exists between the volume and the temperature will always have the same value:

[tex]\frac{V}{T}=k[/tex]

It is possible to assume that you have a certain volume of gas V1 that is at a temperature T1 at the beginning of the experiment. If you vary the volume of gas to a new value V2, then the temperature will change to T2, and it will be true:

[tex]\frac{V1}{T1}=\frac{V2}{T2}[/tex]

In this case:

V1= 17 LT1= 200 KV2= ?T2= 157 K

Replacing:

[tex]\frac{17 L}{200 K} =\frac{V2}{157 K}[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]V2= 157 K*\frac{17 L}{200 K}[/tex]

V2= 13.345 L

The new volume of the ballon will be 13.345 L

a. b1
b. b2

Answers

Answer:

a. 3.07 b. 1.26

Explanation:

Given that A = -3.07i + 3.17j and B = b1i + b1j and C = A + B = 0i + 4.43j

Since A + B = -3.07i + 3.17j + b1i + b2j

= (-3.07 + b1)i + (3.17 + b2)j

So,(-3.07 + b1)i + (3.17 + b2)j = 0i + 4.43j

Comparing components,

-3.07 + b1 = 0 (1) and 3.17 + b2 = 4.43 (2)

a. From (1), b1 = 3.07

b. From(2) b2 = 4.43 - 3.17 = 1.26

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a gravitational force
of 18.0 units. If the distance separating Objects 1 and 2 is
changed to one-third the original value, then the new
gravitational force will be units.

Answers

Answer:

F' = 162 units

Explanation:

The gravitational force of attraction between the two objects is given by Newton's Gravitational law through the following formula:

[tex]F = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}\\\\[/tex]

where,

F = gravitational force = 18 units

G = Gravitational Constant

m₁ = mass of object 1

m₂ = mass of object 2

r = distance between objects

Therefore,

[tex]18 = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}------ eqn (1)\\\\[/tex]

Now, if we change the value of distance to one-third of original value, then:

r' = r/3

[tex]F' = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{(\frac{r}{3})^{2}}\\\\F' = (9)(\frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}})[/tex]

using eqn (1):

F' = 9(18 units)

F' = 162 units

3. Superman is flying on the sky, suddenly approaches an airplane. It is known that this airplane has 1,000,000 kg*m/s of momentum. Superman decides to push the airplane with a force of 1,200,000 N for .09 seconds. What is the impulse that superman gives to the plane? What is the new momentum of the airplane?

Answers

Answer:

Superman's delivered impulse : 108,000 kg m/s

New momentum of the airplane: 1,108,000 kg m/s

Explanation:

Recall that impulse can be estimated by multiplying the applied force times the duration of time the force was applied. Therefore, the impulse added by Superman was:

1,200,000 * 0.09 = 108,000 kg m/s

and then, the new momentum of the plane is the addition:

1000000 + 108000 = 1,108,000 kg m/s

Two small nonconducting spheres have a total charge of (a) When placed 28.0 cm apart, the force each exerts on the other is 12.0 N and is repulsive. What is the charge on each

Answers

Answer:

q = 1 x 10⁻⁵ C = 10 μC

Explanation:

The repulsive  force between the charges is given by Coulumb's Law:

[tex]F = \frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}\\[/tex]

where,

F = Electrostatic Force = 12 N

k = Coulomb's Constat = 9 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

r = distance between charges = 28 cm = 0.28 m

Since the values or charges are not given. We assume that both charges have same mahnitude. Therefore,

q₁ = q₂ = q = charge on each sphere = ?

Therefore,

[tex]12\ N = \frac{(9\ x\ 10^{9}\ Nm^{2}/C^{2})q^{2}}{(0.28\ m)^{2}} \\\\q^{2} = \frac{(12\ N)(0.28\ m)^{2}}{9\ x\ 10^{9}\ Nm^{2}/C^{2}}\\q = \sqrt{1\ x\ 10^{-10}\ C^{2}}\\[/tex]

q = 1 x 10⁻⁵ C = 10 μC

A 15.0 kg bowling ball rolling at 3 m/s is stopped by a constant force of 11.2 newtons. Calculate the time the force must act on the bowling ball to stop it.

Answers

Answer:

4.01 seconds

Explanation:

Given that:

Mass of ball = 15kg

Initial velocity, u = 3m/s

Final velocity, v = 0

Force, F= 11.2 N

Change in velocity, dv = 3 - 0 = 3

Time force must act on the ball before stopping it:

Using the relation :

F = ma

a = (v - u) / t

Ft = m(v - u)

11.2 * t = 15 * 3

11.2t = 45

11.2t = 45

t = -+¯ 45 / 11.2

t = 4.01

t = 4 seconds.

The normal eye, myopic eye and old age
As we age, the lens of the eye hardens and accommodation no longer occurs: it is presbyopia.
Paradoxically, with age, a nearsighted person sees better than a "normal" person.
The aim of this exercise is to explain this paradox. The eye is modeled by a constant focal
length f′0 when the eye is presbyopic and by a screen (the retina) at the distance d from the
lens (d = 15 mm).
1. A normal, presbyopic eye sees an object at infinity in focus while a myopic eye sees an
object at a distance Dm from the eye (Dm = 15 cm).
What relation do we have in the two cases between f′0 and d?
2. A presbyopic person reads a newspaper placed 25 cm from his/her eyes. The radius r0 of
the pupil of the eye is 1 mm. Calculate the diameter of the spot on the retina image from a
log point, for a myopic eye and a normal eye. Conclude​

Answers

Answer:

1)    f’₀ / f = 1.10, the relationship between the focal length (f'₀) and the distance to the retina (image) is given by the constructor's equation

2) the two diameters have the same order of magnitude and are very close to each other

Explanation:

You have some problems in the writing of your exercise, we will try to answer.

1) The equation to be used in geometric optics is the constructor equation

          [tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}[/tex]

where p and q are the distance to the object and the image, respectively, f is the focal length

* For the normal eye and with presbyopia

the object is at infinity (p = inf) and the image is on the retina (q = 15 mm = 1.5 cm)

        [tex]\frac{1}{f'_o} = 1/ inf + \frac{1}{1.5}[/tex]

        f'₀ = 1.5 cm

this is the focal length for this type of eye

* Eye with myopia

the distance to the object is p = 15 cm the distance to the image that is on the retina is q = 1.5 cm

           1 / f = 1/15 + 1 / 1.5

           1 / f = 0.733

            f = 1.36 cm

this is the focal length for the myopic eye.

In general, the two focal lengths are related

         f’₀ / f = 1.5 / 1.36

         f’₀ / f = 1.10

The question of the relationship between the focal length (f'₀) and the distance to the retina (image) is given by the constructor's equation

2) For this second part we have a diffraction problem, the point diameter corresponds to the first zero of the diffraction pattern that is given by the expression for a linear slit

          a sin θ= m λ

the first zero occurs for m = 1, as the angles are very small

          tan θ = y / f = sin θ / cos θ

for some very small the cosine is 1

          sin θ = y / f

where f is the distance of the lens (eye)

           y / f = lam / a

in the case of the eye we have a circular slit, therefore the system must be solved in polar coordinates, giving a numerical factor

           y / f = 1.22 λ / D

           y = 1.22 λ f / D

where D is the diameter of the eye

          D = 2R₀

          D = 2 0.1

          D = 0.2 cm

           

the eye has its highest sensitivity for lam = 550 10⁻⁹ m (green light), let's use this wavelength for the calculation

         

* normal eye

the focal length of the normal eye can be accommodated to give a focus on the immobile retian, so let's use the constructor equation

      \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}

sustitute

       [tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{25} + \frac{1}{1.5}[/tex]

       [tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex]= 0.7066

        f = 1.415 cm

therefore the diffraction is

        y = 1.22  550 10⁻⁹  1.415  / 0.2

        y = 4.75 10⁻⁶ m

this is the radius, the diffraction diameter is

       d = 2y

       d_normal = 9.49 10⁻⁶ m

* myopic eye

In the statement they indicate that the distance to the object is p = 15 cm, the retina is at the same distance, it does not move, q = 1.5 cm

       [tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{15} + \frac{1}{ 1.5}[/tex]

        [tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex]= 0.733

         f = 1.36 cm

diffraction is

        y = 1.22 550 10-9 1.36 10-2 / 0.2 10--2

        y = 4.56 10-6 m

the diffraction diameter is

        d_myope = 2y

         d_myope = 9.16 10-6 m

         [tex]\frac{d_{normal}}{d_{myope}}[/tex] = 9.49 /9.16

        \frac{d_{normal}}{d_{myope}} =  1.04

we can see that the two diameters have the same order of magnitude and are very close to each other

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The standard equation of a wave is expressed as;

y(x,t) = Asin(2πx/λ+2πft)

compare and contrast with the equation  y(x,t)=0.003(20x+200t)

2πft = 200t

2πf = 200

f = 200/2π

f = 100/π

Since period T = 1/f

T = π/100

T = 3.14/100

T = 0.0314secs

hence the period of the wave is 0.0314secs

A small car with a mass of 800kg moving with a velocity of 27.8 m/s. The car stops at a yellow light in 3.9 seconds. What force did it take for the car to stop?

Answers

Answer:

F = 5702.56 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a small car, m = 800 kg

Initial speed of the car, u = 27.8 m/s

Final speed, v = 0

Time, t = 3.9 s

We need to find the force did it take for the car to stop.

The force acting on an object is given by :

[tex]F=ma\\\\F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{800\times (0-27.8)}{3.9}\\\\F=-5702.56\ N[/tex]

So, the magnitude of force acting on the car to stop is 5702.56 N.

Calculate the wave length of the red light in air if the frequency of red light is 4.3×10^14hz. Given the velocity of light is 3×10^8m/s

Answers

Answer:

λ = 6.98 × 10^-7 m

Explanation:

Using the formula; λ = v/f

Where;

λ = wavelength (m)

v = speed of light (3 × 10^8m/s)

f = frequency (Hz)

Based on the provided information in this question, the frequency (f) of red light is 4.3×10^14hz while v = 3×10^8m/s.

λ = v/f

λ = 3×10^8 ÷ 4.3×10^14

λ = 0.698 × 10^(8-14)

λ = 0.698 × 10^-6

λ = 6.98 × 10^-7 m
