A horizontal, uniform board of weight 125 N and length 4 m is supported by vertical chains at each end. A person weighing 500 N is sitting on the board. The tension in the right chain is 250 N. How far from the left end of the board is the person sitting

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the person  is sitting 1.5 m from the left end of the board

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Wb = 125 N

Wm = 500 N

T₂ = 250 N

Now, we know that;

T₁ + T₂ = Wb + Wm

T₁ + 250 = 125 + 500

T₁ = 125 + 500 - 250

T₁ = 375 N

so tension of the left chain is 375 N.

Now, taking torque about the left end

500 × d + 125 × 2 = 250 × 4

500d + 250 = 1000

500d = 1000 - 250

500d = 750

d = 750 / 500

d = 1.5 m

Therefore, the person  is sitting 1.5 m from the left end of the board.

An astronaut throws a wrench in interstellar space. How much force is required to keep the wrench moving continuously with constant velocity?
A.
a force equal to its weight on Earth
B.
a force equal to zero
C.
a force equal to half of its weight on Earth
D.
a force equal to double its weight on Earth

Answers

Answer:

0 N

Explanation:

This is a trick question, the mass of the wrench would be 0 due to it being in space and has no gravitational pull to weight it down. And since acceleration is defined as the rate and change of velocity with no respect of time and the wrench is moving at a constant velocity, that means the velocity is 0. and since F = m*a it would be F = 0 * 0 = 0 N

reviews the general principles in this problem. A projectile is launched from ground level at an angle of 13.0 ° above the horizontal. It returns to ground level. To what value should the launch angle be adjusted, without changing the launch speed, so that the range doubles?

Answers

Answer: θ would equal approximately 28.7°

This is a kinematics problem, where one is only given the theta value 13.0° in regards to the range; thus, the problem is testing one's understanding of the relationships between the variables.

Range (aka x) = (v₀ sin (2θ₀))/g, where θ₀ = 13.0°

Now if we multiply the range by 2, we get:

2x = 2((v₀ sin (2θ₀))/g) → to verbalize, if range equates to (v₀ sin (2θ₀))/g, and doubling the range equals twice the product value, then:

2θ = sin⁻¹(2sin(2(13.0° )) = sin⁻¹(2(0.76255845048)) = sin⁻¹ (1.52511690096) = 57.35560850015109°/2 = θ

Thus, θ = 28.67780425

Answers

Answer:

The number of photons in the pulse is 1.04 x 10²⁴

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the emitted photons, f = 2.83 x 10¹¹ Hz

duration of the incident light, t = 3 ms = 3 x 10⁻³ s

power of the incident light, P = 65,000 W

The energy of each photon emitted is calculated as;

E = hf

where;

h is Planck's constant, = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js

E =  6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ x  2.83 x 10¹¹

E = 1.875 x 10⁻²² J

let the number of photons in the pulse = n

n(E)= Power x time

[tex]n = \frac{Pt}{E} \\\\n = \frac{65,000 \times 3\times 10^{-3}}{1.875 \times 10^{-22}} \\\\n = 1.04 \times 10^{24} \ photons[/tex]

Consider a swimmer that swims a complete round-trip lap of a 50 m long pool in 100 seconds. What is the swimmers average speed and average velocity?

Answers

Answer:

The average speed is 1 m/s

The average velocity is 0

Explanation:

Given;

length of the pool, L = 50 m

time taken for the motion, t = 100 s

The total distance = 50 m + 50 m

The total distance = 100 m

The average speed = total distance / total time

                                  = 100 / 100

                                  = 1 m/s

The average velocity = change in displacement / change in time

change in displacement = 50 m - 50 m = 0

The average velocity = 0 / 100

The average velocity = 0

Answers

I can not even read this question.

What are you trying to even say?

The acceleration of the car with two (2) washers added is equal to 0.33 [tex]m/s^2[/tex].

Given the following data:

Initial velocity = 0.13 m/s.Final velocity = 0.36 m/s.Initial time = 1.92 seconds.Final time = 2.61 seconds.

What is an acceleration?

An acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time and it is measured in meter per seconds square.

How to calculate average acceleration.

In Science, the average acceleration of an object is calculated by subtracting its initial velocity from the final velocity and dividing by the change in time for the given interval.

Mathematically, average acceleration is given by this formula:

[tex]a = \frac{V\;-\;U}{t_f-t_i}[/tex]

Where:  

V is the final velocity.U is the initial velocity.[tex]t_i[/tex]initial time measured in seconds.[tex]t_f[/tex] final time measured in seconds.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]a = \frac{0.36\;-\;0.13}{2.61\;-\;1.92}\\\\a=\frac{0.23}{0.69}[/tex]

a = 0.33 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]

A magnetic field of 0.276 T exists in the region enclosed by a solenoid that has 517 turns and a diameter of 10.5 cm. Within what period of time must the field be reduced to zero if the average magnitude of the induced emf within the coil during this time interval is to be 12.6 kV

Answers

Answer:

The period the field must be reduced to zero is 9.81 x 10⁻⁵ s

Explanation:

Given;

initial value of the magnetic field, B₁ = 0.276 T

number of turns of the solenoid, N = 517 turns

diameter of the solenoid, d = 10.5 cm = 0.105 m

induced emf, = 12.6 kV = 12,600 V

when the field becomes zero, then the final magnetic field value, B₂ = 0

The induced emf is given by Faraday's law;

[tex]emf = -\frac{NA\Delta B}{t} \\\\emf = -\frac{NA (B_2 -B_1)}{t} \\\\t = -\frac{NA (B_2 -B_1)}{emf}\\\\t = \frac{NA (B_1 -B_2)}{emf}\\\\where;\\\\t \ is \ the \ time \ when \ B = 0 \ \ (i.e\ B_2 = 0)\\\\A \ is \ the \ area \ of \ the \ coil\\\\A = \frac{\pi d^2}{4} = \frac{\pi (0.105)^2}{4} = 0.00866 \ m^2\\\\t= \frac{(517) \times (0.00866)\times (0.276 -0)}{12,600}\\\\t = 9.81 \times 10^{-5} \ s[/tex]

Therefore, the period the field must be reduced to zero is 9.81 x 10⁻⁵ s

The viscid silk produced by the European garden spider (Araneus diadematus) has a resilience of 0.35. If 10.0 J of work are done on the silk to stretch it out, how many Joules of work are released as thermal energy as it relaxes?

Answers

Answer: The energy released as thermal energy is 6.5 J

Explanation:

Energy stored by the spider when it relaxes is given by:

[tex]E_o=\text{Resilience}\times \text{Work}[/tex]

We are given:

Resilience = 0.35

Work done = 10.0 J

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]E_o=0.35\times 10\\\\E_o=3.5J[/tex]

Energy released at thermal energy is the difference between the work done and the energy it takes to relaxes, which is given by the equation:

[tex]E_T=\text{Work done}-E_o[/tex]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]E_T=(10-3.5)=6.5J[/tex]

Hence, the energy released as thermal energy is 6.5 J

The energy released as thermal energy when 10 J of work is done to stretch silk will be 6.5 J

What is thermal energy?

Thermal energy refers to the energy contained within a system that is responsible for its temperature. Heat is the flow of thermal energy.

Energy stored by the spider when it relaxes is given by:

[tex]\rm E_o=Resilience \ \times Work[/tex]

We are given:

Resilience = 0.35

Work done = 10.0 J

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]\rm E_o=0.35\times 10[/tex]

[tex]E_o=3.5\ J[/tex]

Energy released at thermal energy is the difference between the work done and the energy it takes to relaxes, which is given by the equation:

[tex]E_T=\rm Work done -E_o[/tex]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]E_T=(10-3.5)=6.5\ J[/tex]

Hence, the energy released as thermal energy is 6.5 J

A 5 kg box drops a distance of 10 m to the ground. If 70% of the initial potential energy goes into increasing the internal energy of the box, determine the magnitude of the increase.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The initial PE [tex](PE)_i[/tex] = m×g×h

= 5 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 10 m

= 490.5 J

The change in Potential energy P.E of the box is:

ΔP.E = [tex]P.E_f -P.E_i[/tex]

ΔP.E = 0 - [tex](PE)_i[/tex]

ΔP.E = [tex]-P.E_i[/tex]

If we take a look at conservation of total energy for determining the change in the internal energy of the box;

[tex]\Delta P.E + \Delta K.E + \Delta U = 0[/tex]

[tex]\Delta U = -\Delta P.E - \Delta K.E[/tex]

this can be re-written as:

[tex]\Delta U =- (-\Delta P.E_i) - \Delta K.E[/tex]

Here, K.E = 0

Also, 70% goes into raising the internal energy for the box;

Thus,

[tex]\Delta U =(70\%) \Delta P.E_i-0[/tex]

[tex]\Delta U =(0.70) (490.5)[/tex]

ΔU = 343.35  J

Thus, the magnitude of the increase is = 343.35 J

C) 2.02 x 10^16 nuclei

D) 1.61 x 10^17 nuclei

Answers

OPTION C is the correct answer.

The radioactive decay follows the first order kinetics. The number of atoms decaying at any time is proportional to the number of atoms present at that instant. The amount of sample left is 2.02 x 10¹⁶nuclei. The correct option is C.

What is half-life?

The time required for the decay of one half of the amount of the species is defined as the half-life period of a radionuclide. The half-life period is a characteristic of a radionuclide. The half lives can vary from seconds to billions of years.

The isotope decay of an atom is given by the equation:

ln [A] = -kt + ln [A]₀

The rate constant, k is:

k = ln 2 / Half life

k = ln 2 / 4.96 x 10³

k = 1.40 × 10⁻⁴ s⁻¹

t = 1.98 x 10⁴

[A]₀ = 3.21 x 10¹⁷

ln [A] = -1.40 × 10⁻⁴  ×  1.98 x 10⁴ + ln [3.21 x 10¹⁷] = 37.538

[A] = 2.02 x 10¹⁶ nuclei

Thus the correct option is C.

Answers

Answer:

Shiny surface.

Explanation:

We know that radiation pressure is the pressure over a surface exposed to electromagnetic radiation.

Where if the radiation is absorbed by the material (like in the case of a dark surface), the pressure is the energy density flux divided by the speed of light, while if the radiation is totally reflected (idealized case, but we can suppose that this happens for a shiny surface) the pressure is twice pressure for the absorbed case.

This is a simplification for the radiation pressure but is enough to conclude that the radiation pressure is always greater on reflective surfaces, then for this case, the pressure will be greater on a shiny surface than in a dark surface,
