Katie swings a ball around her head at constant speed in a horizontal circle with circumference 2.1 m. What is the work done on the ball by the 34.4 N tension force in the string during one half-revolution of the ball
Answers
Answer:
the work done on the ball is 0
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Katie swings a ball around her head at constant speed in a horizontal circle with circumference 2.1 m.
circle circumference = 2πr = 2.1 m
radius r will be; r = 2.1 m / 2π = 0.33 m
Tension force = 34.4 N
one half revolution means, displacement of the ball is;
d = 2r = 2 × 0.33 = 0.66 m
Now, Work done = force × displacement × cosθ
we know that, the angle between the tension force on string and displacement of object is always 90.
so we substitute
Work done = 34.4 N × 0.66 m × cos(90)
Work done = 34.4 N × 0.66 m × 0
Work done = 0 J
Therefore, the work done on the ball is 0

dod to molt solid
Answers
Answer:
In a column of fluid, pressure increases with depth as a result of the weight of the overlying fluid. Thus a column of fluid, or an object submerged in the fluid, experiences greater pressure at the bottom of the column than at the top. This difference in pressure results in a net force that tends to accelerate an object upwards.
The pressure at a depth in a fluid of constant density is equal to the pressure of the atmosphere plus the pressure due to the weight of the fluid, or p = p 0 + ρ h g , p = p 0 + ρ h g , 14.4

b) On average it took the cyclist 50 second to complete one lap (that it, to ride round just one).
(i) What was the average speed of the cyclist?
(ii) How long in minutes and seconds dit it take the cyclist to complete the 10 laps?
c) Near the end of the run the cyclist put on a spurt. During this spurt it took the cyclist 2 seconds to increase speed from 8 m/s to 12 m/s. What was the cyclist's acceleration during this spurt?
Answers
Explanation:
a) D_t = 500m*10laps
D_t = 5000m or 5km
b)
I) v = d/t
v = 500m/50s
v = 10m/s
ii) 10m/s = 5000m/t
t = 5000m/10m/s
t = (500s)*(1min/60s)
t = 8'20" or 8 mins and 20 sec
c) v_f = v_0 + a*t
v_f-v_0 = a*t
a = (v_f-v_0)/t
a = (12m/s-8m/s)/2s
a = (4m/s)/2s
a = 2m/s²
Part(a),
The distance travelled by the cyclist is 5 km.
Part(b),
(i) The average speed is 10 m/s
(ii) The time taken to cover 10 laps is 8 minutes and 20 seconds.
Part(c),
The acceleration is 2 m/s²
What is speed?Speed is defined as the ratio of the time distance travelled by the body to the time taken by the body to cover the distance. Speed is the ratio of the distance travelled by time. The unit of speed in miles per hour.
a) The distance will be calculated as
D = 500m*10laps
D = 5000m or 5km
b) The average speed is calculated as,
I) v = d/t
v = 500m/the 50s
v = 10m/s
The time will be calculated as,
ii) 10m/s = 5000m/t
t = 5000m/10m/s
t = (500s)*(1min/60s)
t = 8'20" or 8 mins and 20 sec
The acceleration is calculated as,
c) vf = v0 + at
vf-v0 = at
a = (vf-v0)/t
a = (12m/s-8m/s)/2s
a = (4m/s)/2s
a = 2m/s²

ej and
N -F_y - W = 0
let's use trigonometry to decompose the applied force
cos -35 = Fₓ / F
sin -35 = F_y / F
Fₓ = F cos -35
F_y = F sin -35
Fₓ = 40.0 cos -35 = 32.766 N

Consider two closely spaced and oppositely charged parallel metal plates. The plates are square with sides of length L and carry charges Q and -Q on their facing surfaces. What is the magnitude of the electric field in the region between the plates
Answers
Answer:
E_ {total} = [tex]\frac{Q }{L^2 \epsilon_o}[/tex]
Explanation:
In this exercise you are asked to calculate the electric field between two plates, the electric field is a vector
E_ {total} = E₁ + E₂
E_ {total} = 2 E
where E₁ and E₂ are the fields of each plate, we have used that for the positively charged plate the field is outgoing and for the negatively charged plate the field is incoming, therefore in the space between the plates for a test charge the two fields point in the same direction
to calculate the field created by a plate let's use Gauss's law
Ф = ∫ E . dA = q_{int} /ε₀
As a Gaussian surface we use a cylinder with the base parallel to the plate, therefore the direction of the electric field and the normal to the surface are parallel, therefore the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.
E 2A = q_{int} / ε₀
where the 2 is due to the surface has two faces
indicate that the surface has a uniform charge for which we can define a surface density
σ = q_{int} / A
q_{int} = σ A
we substitute
E 2A = σ A /ε₀
E = σ / 2ε₀
therefore the total field is
E_ {total} = σ /ε₀
let's substitute the density for the charge of the whole plate
σ= Q / L²
E_ {total} = [tex]\frac{Q }{L^2 \epsilon_o}[/tex]

A 2000 kg truck has put its front bumper against the rear bumper of a 2500 kg SUV to give it a push. With the engine at full power and good tires on good pavement, the maximum forward force on the truck is 18,000 N.
What is the maximum possible acceleration the truck can give the SUV?
At this acceleration, what is the force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper?
Answers
Answer:
The net magnitude of the force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper is 9120 N.
Explanation:
Concepts and reason
The concept required to solve this problem is Newton’s second law of motion.
Initially, write an expression for the force according to the Newton’s second law of motion. Later, rearrange the expression for the acceleration. Finally, substitute the value of the acceleration obtained to find the new force.
Fundamentals
According to the Newton’s second law of motion, the net force is equal to the product of the mass and the acceleration of an object. The expression for the Newton’s second law of motion is as follows:
F = maF=ma
Here, m is mass and a is the acceleration.
(a)
Rearrange the equation F = maF=ma for a.
a = \frac{F}{m}a=
m
F
Substitute 18,000 N for F and \left( {2300{\rm{ kg + 2400 kg}}} \right)(2300kg+2400kg) for m in the equation a = \frac{F}{m}a=
m
F
.
\begin{array}{c}\\a = \frac{{18,000{\rm{ N}}}}{{\left( {2300{\rm{ kg + 2400 kg}}} \right)}}\\\\ = \frac{{18,000{\rm{ N}}}}{{\left( {4700{\rm{ kg}}} \right)}}\\\\ = 3.83{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}\\\end{array}
a=
(2300kg+2400kg)
18,000N
=
(4700kg)
18,000N
=3.83m/s
2
(b)
Substitute 3.83{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}3.83m/s
2
for a and 2400 kg for m in the equation F = maF=ma .
\begin{array}{c}\\F = \left( {2400{\rm{ kg}}} \right)\left( {3.83{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}} \right)\\\\ = 9120{\rm{ N}}\\\end{array}
F=(2400kg)(3.83m/s
2
)
=9120N
Ans: Part a
The maximum possible acceleration the truck can give the SUV is 3.83{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}3.83m/s
2
.
Part b
The net magnitude of the force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper is 9120 N.
The maximum possible acceleration the truck can give the SUV is equal to 4 m/s².
The force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper is 10000N
What is acceleration?Acceleration of an object can be described as as the change in the velocity of an object w.r.t. time. The acceleration is a vector quantity, contains both magnitude and direction. Acceleration is the second derivative of position w.r.t. time and the first derivative of velocity w.r.t. time.
According to Newton's second law of motion, the force is equal to the product of acceleration and mass of an object.
F = ma
And, a = F/m
Given, the mass of the ruck , m = 2000 Kg
The mass of the SUV, M = 2500 Kg
The total mass of the both = 2000 + 2500 = 4500 Kg
The maximum force on the trick , F = 18000 N
The maximum acceleration of the truck can give the SUV:
[tex]a_{max} = \frac{F_{max}}{m+M}[/tex]
a = 18000/4500
a = 4 m/s²
The force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper will be:

The coil is placed in a spatially uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.500~\text{T}0.500 T so that the plane of the coil makes an angle of 30^\circ30 ∘ with the magnetic field. Find the magnitude of the emf induced in the coil if the magnetic field is reduced to zero uniformly in 0.100~\text{s}0.100 s
We have,
Number of turn in the coil, N = 50
The diameter of the coil, d = 15 cm
Radius, r = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m
Initial magnetic field, [tex]B_i=0.5\ T[/tex]
The plane of the coil makes an angle of 30° with the magnetic field.
The magnetic field reduced to zero in 0.1 seconds
We need to find the emf induced in the coil. We know that, emf is equal to the rate of change of magnetic flux. So,
[tex]\epsilon=\dfrac{BNA\cos\theta}{t}\\\\\epsilon=\dfrac{0.5\times 50\times \pi \times 0.075\cos(30)}{0.1}\\\\\epsilon=51.01\ V[/tex]
So, the induced emf in the coil is 51.01 V.

A single force acts on a particle situated on the positive x axis. The torque about the origin is in the negative z direction. The force might be in the negative y direction. Thus, option B is correct.
To determine the force that could generate a torque in the negative z direction, we need to consider the right-hand rule for cross products. The torque vector, denoted by τ, is given by the cross product of the position vector, r, and the force vector, F:
[tex]τ = r × F[/tex]
In this case, the position vector, r, points along the positive x-axis. The negative z-direction torque indicates that the force vector must be perpendicular to both the position vector and the negative z-axis.
Using the right-hand rule, we can determine that the force vector must be in the negative y-direction, which is option B.
