Answer:
0.857 cm
Explanation:
We are given that:
The focal length for a convex lens to be (f) = 1.5cm
The object distance (u) = - 2.0 cm
We are to determine the image distance (v) = ??? cm
By applying the lens formula:
[tex]\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}[/tex]
By rearrangement and making (v) the subject of the above formula:
[tex]v = \dfrac{uf}{u-f}[/tex]
replacing the given values:
[tex]v = \dfrac{(-2.0)(1.5)}{(-2.0 -1.5)}[/tex]
[tex]v = \dfrac{-3.0}{(-3.5)}[/tex]
v = 0.857 cm
A body of mass 2kg is released from from a point 100m above the ground level. calculate kinetic energy 80m from the point of released.
Answer:
1568J
Explanation:
Since the problem states 80 m from the point of drop, the height relative to the ground will be 100-80=20m.
Use conservation of Energy
ΔUg+ΔKE=0
ΔUg= mgΔh=2*9.8*(20-100)=-1568J
ΔKE-1568J=0
ΔKE=1568J
since KEi= 0 since the object is at rest 100m up, the kinetic energy 20meters above the ground is 1568J
a vessel with mass 10kg intially moving withthe velocicity 12m s along the x axis explodes into three exactly identical pieces Just after the explosion one piece moves with speed 10 m s along the x axis and asecond piece moves with speed 10 m s along the y axis What iis the magnitude of the component of velocity of the third piece along the y axiss
Answer:
Explanation:
Apply law of conservation of momentum along y-axis.
Initially there was no momentum along y-axis. So there will be nil momentum along y-axis again finally.
Let the mass of each piece after breaking be m .
Momentum of piece moving along positive y-axis
= m x 10 = 10m .
Let the component of velocity of third piece along y-axis be v .
Its momentum along the same direction = m v .
Total momentum along y -axis = 10 m + m v
According to law of conservation of momentum
10 m + mv = 0
v = - 10 m/s .
Component of velocity of the third piece along y-axis will be - 10 m/s .
In other words it will be along negative y-axis with speed of 10 m/s.
A submarine has a "crush depth" (that is, the depth at which
water pressure will crush the submarine) of 400 m. What is
the approximate pressure (water plus atmospheric) at this
depth? (Recall that the density of seawater is 1025 kg/m3, g=
9.81 m/s2, and 1 kg/(m-s2) = 1 Pa = 9.8692 x 10-6 atm.)
Answer:
P =40.69 atm
Explanation:
We need to find the approximate pressure at a depth of 400 m.
It can be calculated as follows :
P = Patm + ρgh
Put all the values,
[tex]P=1\ atm+1025 \times 9.81\times 400\times 9.8692\times 10^{-6}\ atm/Pa\\\\P=40.69\ atm[/tex]
So, the approximate pressure is equal to 40.69 atm.
1.- Que distancia recorrió una carga de 2,5x10-6 coul, generando así un campo eléctrico de 55new/coul.
Answer:
r = 20.22 m
Explanation:
Given that,
Charge,[tex]q=2.5\times 10^{-6}\ C[/tex]
Electric field, [tex]E=55\ N/C[/tex]
We need to find the distance. We know that, the electric field a distance r is as follows :
[tex]E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}\\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{kq}{E}}\\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 2.5\times 10^{-6}}{55}}\\\\r=20.22\ m[/tex]
So, the required distance is 20.22 m.
Two spheres are rolling without slipping on a horizontal floor. They are made of different materials, but each has mass 5.00 kg and radius 0.120 m. For each the translational speed of the center of mass is 4.00 m/s. Sphere A is a uniform solid sphere and sphere B is a thin-walled, hollow sphere. Part B How much work, in joules, must be done on the solid sphere to bring it to rest? Express your answer in joules. VO AE4D ? J WA Request Answer Submit Part C How much work, in joules, must be done on the hollow sphere to bring it to rest? Express your answer in joules. Wa Request
Answer:
Explanation:
Moment of inertia of solid sphere = 2/5 m R²
m is mass and R is radius of sphere.
Putting the values
Moment of inertia of solid sphere I₁
Moment of inertia of hollow sphere I₂
Kinetic energy of solid sphere ( both linear and rotational )
= 1/2 ( m v² + I₁ ω²) [ ω is angular velocity of rotation ]
= 1/2 ( m v² + 2/5 m R² ω²)
= 1/2 ( m v² + 2/5 m v²)
=1/2 x 7 / 5 m v²
= 0.7 x 5 x 4² = 56 J .
This will be equal to work to be done to stop it.
Kinetic energy of hollow sphere ( both linear and rotational )
= 1/2 ( m v² + I₂ ω²) [ ω is angular velocity of rotation ]
= 1/2 ( m v² + 2/3 m R² ω²)
= 1/2 ( m v² + 2/3 m v²)
=1/2 x 5 / 3 m v²
= 0.833 x 5 x 4² = 66.64 J .
This will be equal to work to be done to stop it.
A tire is filled with air at 22oC to a gauge pressure of 240 kPa. After driving for some time, if the temperature of air inside the tire is 45oC, what fraction of the original volume of air must be removed to maintain the pressure at 240 kPa?
Answer:
7.8% of the original volume.
Explanation:
From the given information:
Temperature [tex]T_1[/tex] = 22° C = 273 + 22 = 295° C
Pressure [tex]P_1[/tex] = 240 kPa
Temperature [tex]T_2[/tex] = 45° C
At initial temperature and pressure:
Using the ideal gas equation:
[tex]P_1V_1 =nRT_1[/tex]
making V_1 (initial volume) the subject:
[tex]V_1 = \dfrac{nRT_1}{P_1}[/tex]
[tex]V_1 = \dfrac{nR*295}{240}[/tex]
Provided the pressure maintained its rate at 240 kPa, when the temperature reached 45° C, then:
the final volume [tex]V_2[/tex] can be computed as:
[tex]V_2 = \dfrac{nR*318}{240}[/tex]
Now, the change in the volume ΔV = V₂ - V₁
[tex]\Delta V = \dfrac{nR*318}{240}- \dfrac{nR*295}{240}[/tex]
[tex]\Delta V = \dfrac{23nR}{240}[/tex]
∴
The required fraction of the volume of air to keep up the pressure at (240) kPa can be computed as:
[tex]= \dfrac{\dfrac{23nR}{240}}{ \dfrac{295nR}{240}}[/tex]
[tex]= {\dfrac{23nR}{240}} \times { \dfrac{240}{295nR}}[/tex]
[tex]= 0.078[/tex]
= 7.8% of the original volume.

When a golfer tees off, the head of her golf club which has a mass of 158 g is traveling 48.2 m/s just before it strikes a 46.0 g golf ball at rest on a tee. Immediately after the collision, the club head continues to travel in the same direction but at a reduced speed of 32.7 m/s. Neglect the mass of the club handle and determine the speed of the golf ball just after impact.
Answer:
v₂ = 53.23 m/s
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of a golf club, m₁ = 158 g = 0.158 kg
The initial speed of a golf club, u₁ = 48.2 m/s
The mass of a golf ball, m₂ = 46 g = 0.046 kg
It was at rest, u₂ = 0
Immediately after the collision, the club head continues to travel in the same direction but at a reduced speed of 32.7 m/s, v₁ = 32.7 m/s
We use the conservation of energy to find the speed of the golf ball just after impact as follows :
[tex]m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2\\\\v_2=\dfrac{m_1u_1-m_1v_1}{m_2}\\\\v_2=\dfrac{0.158(48.2)-0.158(32.7)}{0.046}\\\\=53.23\ m/s[/tex]
So, the speed of the golf ball just after the impact is equal to 53.23 m/s.
A wave moves in a rope with a certain wavelength. A second wave is made to move in the same rope with twice the wavelength of the first wave. The frequency of the second wave is _______________ the frequency of the first wave.
Answer:
The frequency of the second wave is half of the frequency of first one.
Explanation:
The wavelength of the second wave is double is the first wave.
As we know that the frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength of the velocity is same.
velocity = frequency x wavelength
So, the ratio of frequency of second wave to the first wave is
[tex]\frac{f_2}{f_1} =\frac{\lambda _1}{\lambda _2}\\\\\frac{f_2}{f_1} =\frac{\lambda _1}{2\lambda _1}\\\\\frac{f_2}{f_1} =\frac{1}{2}\\\\[/tex]
The frequency of the second wave is half of the frequency of first one.
The following two waves are sent in opposite directions on a horizontal string so as to create a standing wave in a vertical plane: y1(x, t) = (8.20 mm) sin(4.00πx - 430πt) y2(x, t) = (8.20 mm) sin(4.00πx + 430πt), with x in meters and t in seconds. An antinode is located at point A. In the time interval that point takes to move from maximum upward displacement to maximum downward displacement, how far does each wave move along the string?
Answer:
Explanation:
From the information given:
The angular frequency ω = 430 π rad/s
The wavenumber k = 4.00π which can be expressed by the equation:
k = ω/v
∴
4.00 = 430 /v
v = 430/4.00
v = 107.5 m/s
Similarly: k = ω/v = 2πf/fλ
We can say that:
k = 2π/λ
4.00 π = 2π/λ
wavelength λ = 2π/4.00 π
wavelength λ = 0.5 m
frequency of the wave can now be calculated by using the formula:
f = v/λ
f = 107.5/0.5
f = 215 Hz
Also, the Period(T) = 1/215 secs
The time at which particle proceeds from point A to its maximum upward displacement and to its maximum downward displacement can be computed as t = T/2;
Thus, the distance(x) covered by each wave during this time interval(T/2) will be:
x = v * t
x = v * T/2
x = λ/2
x = 0.5/2
x = 0.25 m

A body of mass 4kg is moving with a velocity of 108km/h . find the kenetic energy of the body.
Answer:
KE = 2800 J
Explanation:
Usually a velocity is expressed as m/s. Then the energy units are joules.
[tex]\frac{108 km}{hr} * \frac{1000m}{1 km} * \frac{1 hour}{3600 seconds} =\frac{108*1000 m}{3600sec}[/tex]
v = 30 m / sec
KE = 1/2 * 4 * (30)^2
KE =2800 kg m^2/sec^2

The relation of mass m, angular velocity o and radius of the circular path r of an object with the centripetal force is-
a. F = m²wr
b. F = mwr²
c. F = mw²r
d. F = mwr.
Answer:
Correct option not indicated
Explanation:
There are few mistakes in the question. The angular velocity ought to have been denoted with "ω" and not "o" (as also suggested in the options).
The formula to calculate a centripetal force (F) is
F = mv²/r
Where m is mass, v is velocity and r is radius
where
While the formula to calculate a centrifugal force (F) is
F = mω²r
where m is mass, ω is angular velocity and r is radius of the circular path.
From the above, it can be denoted that the relationship been referred to in the question is that of a centrifugal force and not centripetal force, thus the correct option should be C.
NOTE: Centripetal force is the force required to keep an object moving in a circular path/motion and acts inward towards the centre of rotation while centrifugal force is the force felt by an object in circular motion which acts outward away from the centre of rotation.
A 31 kg block is initially at rest on a horizontal surface. A horizontal force of 83 N is required to set the block in motion. After it is in motion, a horizontal force of 55 N i required to keep it moving with constant speed. From this information, find the coefficients of static and kinetic friction
Answer:
The static and kinetic coefficients of friction are 0.273 and 0.181, respectively.
Explanation:
By Newton's Laws of Motion and definition of maximum friction force, we derive the following two formulas for the static and kinetic coefficients of friction:
[tex]\mu_{s} = \frac{f_{s}}{m\cdot g}[/tex] (1)
[tex]\mu_{k} = \frac{f_{k}}{m\cdot g}[/tex] (2)
Where:
[tex]\mu_{s}[/tex] - Static coefficient of friction, no unit.
[tex]\mu_{k}[/tex] - Kinetic coefficient of friction, no unit.
[tex]f_{s}[/tex] - Static friction force, in newtons.
[tex]f_{k}[/tex] - Kinetic friction force, in newtons.
[tex]m[/tex] - Mass, in kilograms.
[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational constant, in meters per square second.
If we know that [tex]f_{s} = 83\,N[/tex], [tex]f_{k} = 55\,N[/tex], [tex]m = 31\,kg[/tex] and [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], then the coefficients of friction are, respectively:
[tex]\mu_{s} = \frac{83\,N}{(31\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}[/tex]
[tex]\mu_{s} = 0.273[/tex]
[tex]\mu_{k} = \frac{55\,N}{(31\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}[/tex]

The gravitational field strength due to its planet is 5N/kg What does it mean?
Answer:
The weight of an object is the force on it caused by the gravity due to the planet. The weight of an object and the gravitational field strength are directly proportional. For a given mass, the greater the gravitational field strength of the planet, the greater its weight.
Weight can be calculated using the equation:
weight = mass × gravitational field strength
This is when:
weight (W) is measured in newtons (N)
mass (m) is measured in kilograms (kg)
gravitational field strength (g) is measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg)
