Answers
The image in the attachment describes the situation of the fishing rod.
Answer: F = 10.8 N
Explanation: The image shows a fishing rod attached to an axis. To stay in equilibrium, Torque must be equal for the force of magnitude 18N and for the unknow force.
Torque (τ) is a measure of a force's tendency to cause rotation and, in physics, defined as:
τ = F.r.sin(θ)
F is the force acting on the object;
r is distance between where the torque is measured to where the force is applied;
θ is the angle between F and r;
For the fishing rod:
[tex]\tau_{1} = \tau_{2}[/tex]
[tex]F_{1}.r_{1}.sin(\theta) = F_{2}.r_{2}.sin(\theta)[/tex]
Assuming part (1) is related to unknown force:
[tex]F = \frac{F_{2}.r_{2}.sin(\theta}{r_{1}.sin(\theta) }[/tex]
Replacing the corresponding values:
[tex]F = \frac{18*1.8*sin(30)}{3*sin(30)}[/tex]
[tex]F = \frac{18*1.8}{3}[/tex]
F = 10.8
The fishing line exert on the the rod a force of 10.8N.

In France, the wall sockets provide an AC voltage with Vrms = 230 V. You want to use an appliance designed to operate in the United States (Vrms = 120 V) and decide to build a transformer to convert the power line voltage in France to the value required by your appliance.
(a) Should you use a "step-down" transformer (to make Vrms smaller) or a "step-up" transformer (which makes Vrms larger)?
a "step-up" transformer
a "step-down" transformer
(b) If the input coil of your transformer has 2760 turns, how many turns should the output coil have?
_____ turns
Answers
Answer:
a)step-down" transformer
b) 1440 turns
Explanation:
There are two types of transformers; step up transformers and step down transformers. A step down transformer converts a higher voltage to a lower voltage.
In a stepdown transformer, there are more turns in the primary coil than in the secondary coil, the turns ratio Ns/Np is less than 1 for a stepdown transformer.
If
Number of turns in primary coil Np= 2760
Number of turns in secondary coil Ns= unknown
Voltage in primary coil Vp= 230 V
Voltage in secondary coil Vs= 120 V
Ns/Np= Vs/VP
NsVp= NpVs
Ns= NpVs/VP = 2760 × 120/230
Ns= 1440 turns
A car accelerates uniformly from rest and reaches a speed of 22.7 m/s in 9.02 s. Assume the diameter of a tire is 58.5 cm. (a) Find the number of revolutions the tire makes during this motion, assuming that no slipping occurs. rev (b) What is the final angular speed of a tire in revolutions per second? rev/s
Answers
(a) The car is undergoing an acceleration of
[tex]a=\dfrac{22.7\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}-0}{9.02\,\mathrm s}\approx2.52\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}[/tex]
so that in 9.02 s, it will have covered a distance of
[tex]x=\dfrac a2(9.02\,\mathrm s)^2\approx102\,\mathrm m[/tex]
The car has tires with diameter d = 58.5 cm = 0.585 m, and hence circumference π d ≈ 1.84 m. Divide the distance traveled by the tire circumference to determine how many revolutions it makes:
[tex]\dfrac{102\,\mathrm m}{1.84\,\mathrm m}\approx55.7\,\mathrm{rev}[/tex]
(b) The wheels have average angular velocity
[tex]\omega=\dfrac{\omega_f+\omega_i}2=\dfrac{\theta_f-\theta_i}{\Delta t}[/tex]
where [tex]\omega[/tex] is the average angular velocity, [tex]\omega_i[/tex] and [tex]\omega_f[/tex] are the initial and final angular velocities (rev/s), [tex]\theta_i[/tex] and [tex]\theta_f[/tex] are the initial and final angular displacements (rev), respectively, and [tex]\Delta t[/tex] is the duration of the time between initial and final measurements. The second equality holds because acceleration is constant.
The wheels start at rest, so
[tex]\dfrac{\omega_f}2=\dfrac{55.7\,\rm rev}{9.02\,\rm s}\implies\omega_f\approx12.4\dfrac{\rm rev}{\rm s}[/tex]
If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, how many counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample?
Answers
Answer:
6000 counts per secondExplanation:
If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, then;
2000 counts per second = 1 meter ... 1
In order to know the number of counts per second that would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample, we will have;
x count per second = 3 meter ... 2
Solving the two expressions simultaneously for x we will have;
2000 counts per second = 1 meter
x counts per second = 3 meter
Cross multiply to get x
2000 * 3 = 1* x
6000 = x
This shows that 6000 counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample
A speeding car has a velocity of 80 mph; suddenly it passes a cop car but does not stop. When the speeding car passes the cop car, the cop immediately accelerates his vehicle from 0 to 90 mph in 4.5 seconds. The cop car has a maximum velocity of 90 mph. At what time does the cop car meet the speeding car and at what distance?
Answers
Answer:
Distance= 4 miles
Time = 36.3 seconds
Explanation:
80 mph = 178.95 m/s
90 mph = 201.32 m/s
V = u +at
201.32= 0+a(4.5)
201.32/4.5= a
44.738 m/s² = a
Acceleration of the cop car
= 44.738 m/s²
Distance traveled at 4.5seconds
For the cop car
S= ut + ½at²
S= 0(4.5) + ½*44.738*4.5
S= 100.66 meters
Distance traveled at 4.5seconds
For the speeding car
4.5*178.95=805.275
The cop car will still cover 704.675 +x distance while the speeding car covers for their distance to be equal
X/178.95= (704.675+x)/201.32
X-0.89x= 626.37
0.11x= 626.37
X= 5694.3 meters
The time = 5694.3/178.95
Time =31.8 seconds
So the distance they meet
= 5694.3+805.275
= 6499.575 meters
= 4.0 miles
The Time = 4.5+31.8
Time = 36.3 seconds

Answers
Answer:
factor that bug maximum KE change is 0.52284
Explanation:
given data
vertical distance = 6.5 cm
ripples decrease to = 4.7 cm
solution
We apply here formula for the KE of particle that executes the simple harmonic motion that is express as
KE = (0.5) × m × A² × ω² .................1
and kinetic energy is directly proportional to square of the amplitude.
so
[tex]\frac{KE2}{KE1} = \frac{A2^2}{A1^2}[/tex] .............2
[tex]\frac{KE2}{KE1} = \frac{4.7^2}{6.5^2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{KE2}{KE1}[/tex] = 0.52284
so factor that bug maximum KE change is 0.52284
The factor does the bug's maximum KE change should be considered as the 0.52284.
Calculation of the factor:Since
vertical distance = 6.5 cm
ripples decrease to = 4.7 cm
So here we apply the given formula
KE = (0.5) × m × A² × ω² .................1
here,
kinetic energy is directly proportional to square of the amplitude.
So,
= 4.7^2/ 6.5^2
= 0.52284
hence, The factor does the bug's maximum KE change should be considered as the 0.52284.

An object is made of glass and has the shape of a cube 0.13 m on a side, according to an observer at rest relative to it. However, an observer moving at high speed parallel to one of the object's edges and knowing that the object's mass is 2.0 kg determines its density to be 7300 kg/m3, which is much greater than the density of glass. What is the moving observer's speed (in units of c) relative to the cube
Answers
Answer:
The velocity is [tex]v = 2.6*10^{8} \ m/s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The side of the cube is [tex]l = 0.13 \ m[/tex]
The mass of the object is [tex]m = 2.0 \ kg[/tex]
The density of the object is [tex]\rho = 7300 \ kg / m^3[/tex]
Generally the volume of the object according to the moving observer is mathematically represented as
[tex]V =\frac{m}{\rho}[/tex]
[tex]V =\frac{2}{7300}[/tex]
[tex]V = 2.74*10^{-4} \ m^3[/tex]
Therefore the length of the side as observed by the observer on high speed is mathematically represented as
[tex]L = \sqrt[3]{V}[/tex]
[tex]L = \sqrt[3]{2.74 *10^{-4}}[/tex]
[tex]L =0.065[/tex]
Now the original length of side is mathematically represented as
[tex]L= l * \sqrt{ (1 - ( \frac{ v}{c})^2 )}[/tex]
Where c is the speed of light with value [tex]c = 3.0*10^{8} \ m/s[/tex]
So
[tex]v = \sqrt{1 - [\frac{L}{l}]^2} * c[/tex]
=> [tex]v = \sqrt{1 - [\frac{0.065}{0.13}]^2} * c[/tex]
=> [tex]v = 2.6*10^{8} \ m/s[/tex]

A. How many neutrons are in Mg-25?
B. What is the average atomic mass of magnesium in these rocks?
C. Is the magnesium composition on Mars the same as that on Earth? Explain.
Answers
Answer:
A. number of neutrons of Magnesium Mg = 13
B. The average mass of Mg = 22.29 amu
C. the magnesium composition on Mars is not the same as that on Earth.
Explanation:
Isotopes are atoms with the same atomic number but different mass number. This is due to the difference in mass of the neutrons.
The atomic number of Magnesium Mg = 12
The atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the atomic nucleus of the element
i.e Atomic number = number of protons = 12
The mass number of an element is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus of the element.
Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons
Given that the mass number of Mg = 25
Then;
25 = 12 + number of neutrons
25 - 12 = number of neutrons
13 = number of neutrons
number of neutrons of Magnesium Mg = 13
B. What is the average atomic mass of magnesium in these rocks?
The average atomic mass of an element which exhibit isotopy is the average mass of its various isotopes as they occur naturally in any quantity of the element.
Therefore the average atomic mass of magnesium can be calculated as:
= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{(23.9872 \times 79.70) + ( 24.9886 \times 10.13) + (25.9846 \times 10.17) }{79.7 + 10.13 +10.17}}[/tex]
= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{(1911.77984) + ( 53.134518) + (264.263382) }{100}}[/tex]
= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{2229.17774 }{100}}[/tex]
The average mass of Mg = 22.29 amu
C. Is the magnesium composition on Mars the same as that on Earth? Explain.
The average atomic weight of magnesium on Earth is said to be 24.305 amu while that of Mars is 22.29 amu.
There difference in the average atomic weight result into difference in their composition. Therefore,the magnesium composition on Mars is not the same as that on Earth.

Approximating the eye as a single thin lens 2.70 cmcm from the retina, find the focal length of the eye when it is focused on an object at a distance of 265 cmcm
Answers
Answer:
0.37 cm
Explanation:
The image is formed on the retina which is at a constant distance of 2.70 cm to the lens. Therefore, image distance = 2.70 cm.
The object is at a distant of 265 cm to the lens of the eye.
From lens formula,

Test Bank, Question 18.83 Inside a room at a uniform comfortable temperature, metallic objects generally feel cooler to the touch than wooden objects do. This is because: a given mass of wood contains more heat than the same mass of metal the human body, being organic, resembles wood more closely than it resembles metal metal conducts heat better than wood heat tends to flow from metal to wood
Answers
Answer:
metal conducts heat better than wood.
Explanation:
Metals are generally good conductors of heat, and they usually conduct heat at a relatively rapid rate. Inside the room with a uniform temperature, a metal when touched will rapidly conduct the heat from your hand, leaving your hand with a cooler feeling. Wood on the other hand is a poor heat conductor, so the heat is not conducted from your hand fast enough to cool it up to the point that your hand feels cool.
A 70 kg human body typically contains 140 g of potassium. Potassium has a chemical atomic mass of 39.1 u and has three naturally occurring isotopes. One of those isotopes, 40K,is radioactive with a half-life of 1.3 billion years and a natural abundance of 0.012%. Each 40K decay deposits, on average, 1.0 MeV of energy into the body. What yearly dose in Gy does the typical person receive from the decay of 40K in the body?
Answers
Answer:
0.03143 Gy
Explanation:
Mass of the human body = 70 kg
Mass of potassium in the human body = 140 g
chemical atomic mass of potassium = 39.1
From avogadros number, we know that 1 atomic mass of an element contains 6.023 × 10^(23) atoms
Thus,
140g of potassium will contain;
(140 × 6.023 × 10^(23))/(39.1) = 2.1566 × 10^(24) atoms
We are told that the natural abundance of one of the 40K isotopes is 0.012%.
Thus;
Number of atoms of this isotope = 0.012% × 6.023 × 10^(23) = 7.2276 × 10^(19) K-40 atoms
Formula for activity of K-40 is given as;
Activity = (0.693 × number of K-40 atoms)/half life
Activity = (0.693 × 7.2276 × 10^(19))/1300000000
Activity = 3.85 × 10^(10)
We are told that each decay deposits 1.0 MeV of energy into the body.
Thus;
Total energy absorbed by the body in a year = 3.85 × 10^(10) × 1 × 365 = 1405.25 × 10^(10) MeV
Now, 1 MeV = 1.602 × 10^(-13) joules
Thus;
Total energy absorbed by the body in a year = 1405.25 × 10^(10) × 1.602 × 10^(-13) = 2.25 J
1 Gy = 1 J/kg
Thus;
Yearly dose = 2.25/70 = 0.03143 Gy
The resistor used in the procedures has a manufacturer's stated tolerance (percent error) of 5%. Did you results from Data Table agree with the manufacturer's statement? Explain.
Resistor Measured Resistance
100 99.1
Answers
Answer:
e% = 0.99% this value is within the 5% tolerance given by the manufacturer
Explanation:
Modern manufacturing methods establish a tolerance in order to guarantee homogeneous characteristics in their products, in the case of resistors the tolerance or error is given by
e% = | R_nominal - R_measured | / R_nominal 100
where R_nominal is the one written in the resistance in your barcode, R_measured is the real value read with a multimeter and e% is the tolerance also written in the resistors
let's apply this formula to our case
R_nominal = 10 kΩ = 10000 Ω
R_measured = 100 99 Ω
e% = | 10000 - 10099.1 | / 10000 100
e% = 0.99%
this value is within the 5% tolerance given by the manufacturer

What is the impedance of an AC series circuit that is constructed of a 10.0-W resistor along with 12.0 W inductive reactance and 7.0 W capacitive reactance
Answers
Answer:
11.2 Ω
Explanation:
The impedance of a circuit is given by;
Z= √R^2 +(XL-XC)^2
Since
Resistance R= 10 Ω
Inductive reactance XL= 12 Ω
Capacitive reactance XC= 7 Ω
Z= √10^2 + (12-7)^2
Z= √100 + 25
Z= √125
Z= 11.2 Ω
An unpolarized beam of light with an intensity of 4000 W/m2 is incident on two ideal polarizing sheets. If the angle between the two polarizers is 0.429 rad, what is the emerging light intensity
Answers
Answer:
The intensity is [tex]I_2 = 1654 \ W/m^2[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The intensity of the unpolarized light is [tex]I_o = 4000 \ W/m^2[/tex]
The angle between the ideal polarizing sheet is [tex]\theta = 0.429 \ rad = 0.429 * 57.296 = 24.58^o[/tex]
Generally the intensity of light emerging from the first polarizer is mathematically represented as
[tex]I_2 = \frac{I_o}{2}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]I_1 = \frac{4000}{2}[/tex]
[tex]I_1 = 2000 \ W/m^2[/tex]
Then the intensity of incident light emerging from the second polarizer is mathematically represented by Malus law as
[tex]I_2 = I_1 cos^2 (\theta )[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]I_2 = 2000 * [cos (24.58)]^2[/tex]
[tex]I_2 = 1654 \ W/m^2[/tex]
