1. Use a micrometer to find the thickness of the foil you used. Do your data confirm the measured thickness? Determine the percentage difference between the measured thickness and the thickness you found in your experiment.
Answer:
Yes.
Explanation:
Yes, my data confirm the measured thickness because the micrometer measure precise thickness of any object. If the same instrument and right method is used for the measurement of the thickness of the foil then there is zero difference occur between the measured thickness and the thickness in your experiment so using right method can reduce or eliminate the difference between the measured thickness and the thickness in experiment.
What happen to the frequency of transverse vibration of a stretched string if its tension is halved and the area of cross section of the string is doubled?
Answer:
The fundamental frequency of the stretched string is:
[tex]f=[/tex] [tex]\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{T}{L} }[/tex] [ T = Tension and μ = mass per unit length]
Here,
μ = [tex]\frac{m}{L} = \frac{Vp}{L} = Ap[/tex]
[tex]f= \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{T}{Ap} }[/tex]
If T is halved and A is doubled,
[tex]f= \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{T'}{A'p} } = \sqrt{\frac{1}{2* 2* A* p} } = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{T}{Ap} } = \frac{1}{2} f[/tex]
Thus, the frequency is reduced to half if its tension is halved and the area of cross-section of the string is doubled.
When the tension is halved and the area of cross section is doubled, the frequency increases by a factor of 1.414.
The frequency of transverse vibration of a stretched string is calculated as follows;
[tex]f = \frac{1}{2l} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }[/tex]
where;
T is the tension on the stringμ is the mass per unit length[tex]f = \frac{1}{2l} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }\\\\f = \frac{1}{2l} \sqrt{\frac{Tl}{m} } \\\\f = \frac{l^2}{2l} \sqrt{\frac{T}{m} } \\\\f = \frac{A}{2l} \sqrt{\frac{T}{m}}[/tex]
when the tension is halved and the area of cross section is doubled, the frequency is calculated as;
[tex]\frac{f_1}{A_1 \sqrt{T_1} } = \frac{f_2}{A_2\sqrt{T_2} } \\\\f_2 = \frac{f_1 A_2\sqrt{T_2}}{A_1 \sqrt{T_1} }\\\\f_2 = \frac{f_1 \times 2A_1\sqrt{0.5T_1} }{\sqrt{T_1} }\\\\f_2 = \frac{f_1 \times 2A_1 \times 0.7071\sqrt{T_1} }{\sqrt{T_1} }\\\\f_2 = 1.414 f_1[/tex]
Thus, when the tension is halved and the area of cross section is doubled, the frequency increases by a factor of 1.414.

A 5.0 kg block of ice is at rest at the top of a smooth inclined plane. The block is released and slides 2.0 m down the plane. Assuming there is no friction between the block and the surface, calculate
a) the gravitational potential energy at the top of the plane
b) the component of the weight parallel to the plane
c) the acceleration of the block
d) the velocity of the block at the bottom of the plane
e) the kinetic energy at the bottom of the plane.
Answer:
a) 98.1 Joules
b) 49.05 N × sin(θ)
c) 9.81 × sin(θ)
d) The velocity of the block at the bottom of the plane, v is approximately 6.264 m/s
e) 98.1 Joules
Explanation:
The given parameters of the block are;
The mass of the block, m = 5.0 kg
The distance down the plane the block slides, h = 2.0 m
The friction between the block and the surface = 0
Let θ represent the angle of inclination oof the plane
a) The gravitational potential energy, P.E. = m·g·h
Where;
g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²
∴ P.E. ≈ 5.0 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 2.0 m = 98.1 Joules
The gravitational potential energy, P.E. ≈ 98.1 Joules
b) The component of the weight of the block parallel to the plane, [tex]w_{\parallel}[/tex], is given as follows;
[tex]w_{\parallel}[/tex] = w × sin(θ) = m·g·sin(θ)
∴ [tex]w_{\parallel}[/tex] ≈ 5.0 kg × 9.81 m/s² × sin(θ) = 49.05 × sin(θ) N
The component of the weight of the block parallel to the plane, [tex]w_{\parallel}[/tex] ≈ 49.05 N × sin(θ)
c) The component of the weight along the inclined plane = The force with which the block moves along the inclined plane, therefore;
[tex]w_{\parallel}[/tex] = m·g·sin(θ) = m·a
Where a represents the acceleration of the block along the plane
Therefore, by comparison, we have;
g·sin(θ) = a
∴ a ≈ 9.81 × sin(θ)
d) Given that the motion of the block is 2.0 m downwards, we have;
The velocity of the block at the bottom of the plane, v² = 2·g·h
Therefore, v² ≈ 2 × 9.81 m/s²× 2.0 m = 39.24 m²/s²
v = √(39.24 m²/s²) ≈ 6.264 m/s
e) The kinetic energy at the bottom of the plane, K.E. = (1/2)·m·v²
∴ K.E. = (1/2) × 5.0 kg × 39.24 m²/s² = 98.1 J

An unstrained horizontal spring has a length of 0.40 m and a spring constant of 340 N/m. Two small charged objects are attached to this spring, one at each end. The charges on the objects have equal magnitudes. Because of these charges, the spring stretches by 0.033 m relative to its unstrained length. Determine (a) the possible algebraic signs and (b) the magnitude of the charges.
Answer:
(a) Both the charges are positive or negative.
(b) Teh value of each charge is 1.53 x 10^-5 C.
Explanation:
Spring constant, K = 340 N/m
Natural length, L = 0.4 m
stretch, y = 0.033 m
(a) Let the charge on each sphere is q and they repel each other so the nature of charge of either sphere may be both positive or both negative.
(b) The electrostatic force is balanced by the spring force.
[tex]\frac{kq^2}{(L + y)^2}=Ky\\\\\\\frac{9\times 10^9 q^2}{(0.4 +0.033)^2} = 340\times0.033\\\\q= 1.53\times 10^{-5} C[/tex]

Hydraulic Pressure-Control, On-Off Deluge Valve
FP-400Y-5DC
The BERMAD model 400Y-5DC is an elastomeric, hydraulic line pressure operated deluge valve, designed specifically for advanced fire protection systems and the latest industry standards. The 400Y-5DC is activated by a hydraulically operated relay valve, through which opening and closing of the valve can be controlled either with a remote hydraulic command or with a wet pilot line with closed fusible plugs. An integral pressure reducing pilot valve ensures a precise, stable, pre-set downstream water pressure. The optional valve position indicator can include a limit switch suitable for Fire & Gas monitoring systems. The 400Y-5DC is ideal for systems that combine a remote wet pilot line with a high pressure water supply.

A hot-air balloon is rising upward with a constant speed of 2.85 m/s. When the balloon is 2.50 m above the ground, the balloonist accidentally drops a compass over the side of the balloon. How much time elapses before the compass hits the ground
Answer:
Explanation:
You have to declare which way is plus -- up or down. I will use down.
vi = - 2.85 The balloon is going up. That is the minus direction.
a = 9.81
d = 2.50 meters distance in this case is from the object to the ground.
d = vi*t + 1/2 a t^2
-2.50 = -2.85*t + 1/2 * 9.81 * t^2
-2.50 = -2.85*t + 4.905 * t^2 transfer the left to the right.
-4.905 t^2 + 2.85*t + 2.50 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve for t.
It turns out that t = 1.06

How much current flows in the circuit if two resistors of 6 connected in parallel are
supplied with potential difference of 12 volts?
Answer:
4 A
Explanation:
Firstly we need to calculate the equivalent resistance. Since, two resistors of 6 connected in parallel, so equivalent resistance will be given by,
[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] 1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2
[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] 1/R = (1/6 + 1/6) Ω

How does the construction of dams positively affect natural resources?
by providing water for irrigation and restoring trees to areas where forests once existed
by creating reservoirs, preventing flooding, and renewing destroyed ecosystems
by preventing flooding, creating reservoirs, and providing water for irrigation
by renewing destroyed ecosystems and restoring trees to areas where forest once ersted
Answer:
by preventing flooding, creating reservoirs, and providing water for irrigation
Dams and waterways store and provide water for irrigation so farmers can use the water for growing crops. This idea goes way back into history. Irrigation is an important part of using water. In areas where water and rain are not abundant (like the desert), irrigation canals from rivers and dams are used to carry water.
Dams help in preventing floods. They catch extra water so that it doesn’t run wild downstream. Dam operators can let water out through the dam when needed.

The reservoir stores 6 500 000 m3 of water. The density of the water is 998 kg/m3. Calculate the mass of water in the reservoir. Give your answer in standard form.
Answer:
Mass = 64,870,000,000 kilograms
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Density = 998 kg/m³
Volume = 6,500,000 m³
To find the mass of water in the reservoir;
Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.
Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.
Mathematically, density is given by the equation;
Density = mass/volume
Making mass the subject of formula, we have;
Mass = density * volume
Mass = 998 * 6,500,000
Mass = 64,870,000,000 kilograms

ive an example of a pair of variables that have negative correlation. A. The quantity of fertilizers used and crop yield. B. The color of a person's shirt and the number of meals sold at Chinese restaurants. C. The number of physicists and the speed of sound. D. The number of winter coats sold and the temperature outside.
Answer:
D. The number of winter coats sold and the temperature outside.
Explanation:
A negative correlation can be described as a relationship existing between two variables such that as one of these variables goes up, the other variable would go down and vice versa.
With this explanation in mind, as the temperature outside increases, less winter coats would be sold because an increase in temperature would mean more heat and hotness. People would be uncomfortable wearing thick clothing.
