How much net force is required to keep a 3-kg object moving to the right with a constant speed of
6.0 m/s?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Here,

m = 3 Kg

a = 0 m/s^2 (velocity is constant so the acceleration is zero)

We have,

F = ma

or, F = 3 x 0

or, F = 0 N

Constant velocity can always be associated with a zero net force.

The estimated distance of the earth from the sun is 149000000km. The speed of the light is 300000km/s. What is the time taken for the light to travel from the sun to the earth

Un bombero alejado d = 31.0 m de un edificio en llamas dirige un chorro de agua desde una manguera contra incendios a nivel del suelo con un ángulo de θi = 33.0° arriba de la horizontal como se muestra en la figura siguiente. Si la rapidez del chorro cuando sale de la manguera es vi = 40.0 m/s, ¿a qué altura (en m) golpeará el edificio? m

Answers

Answer:

El chorro golpea el edificio a una altura de 15.943 metros con respecto al suelo.

Explanation:

El chorro de agua exhibe un movimiento parabólico, dado que este tiene una inclinación inicial y la única aceleración es debida a la gravitación terrestre. Las ecuaciones cinemáticas que modelan el fenómeno son:

Distancia horizontal (en metros)

[tex]x = x_{o} + v_{o}\cdot t \cdot \cos \theta[/tex]

Donde:

[tex]x_{o}[/tex] - Posición horizontal inicial, medida en metros.

[tex]t[/tex] - Tiempo, medido en segundos.

[tex]v_{o}[/tex] - Velocidad inicial, medida en metros por segundo.

[tex]\theta[/tex] - Angulo de inclinación del chorro de agua, medido en grados sexagesimales.

Distancia vertical (en metros)

[tex]y = y_{o} + v_{o}\cdot t \cdot \sin \theta + \frac{1}{2}\cdot g \cdot t^{2}[/tex]

Donde:

[tex]y_{o}[/tex] - Posición vertical inicial, medida en metros.

[tex]g[/tex] - Constante gravitacional, medida en metros por segundo al cuadrado.

Partiendo de la primera ecuación, se despeja el tiempo:

[tex]t = \frac{x - x_{o}}{v_{o}\cdot \cos \theta}[/tex]

Si [tex]x = 31\,m[/tex], [tex]x_{o} = 0\,m[/tex], [tex]v_{o} = 40\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]\theta = 33^{\circ}[/tex], entonces:

[tex]t = \frac{31\,m-0\,m}{\left(40\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot \cos 33^{\circ}}[/tex]

[tex]t = 0.924\,s[/tex]

La altura máxima se calcula por sustitución directa de términos en la segunda ecuación. Si [tex]y_{o} = 0\,m[/tex], [tex]v_{o} = 40\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]t = 0.924\,s[/tex] y [tex]g = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], entonces:

[tex]y = 0\,m + \left(40\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (0.924\,s)\cdot \sin 33^{\circ} + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (0.924\,s)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = 15.943\,m[/tex]

A transformer has 500 turns of the primary winding and 10 turns of the secondary winding. a) Determine the secondary voltage if the secondary circuit is open and the primary voltage is 120 V

Answers

Answer:

First we use the fact that the ratio of the voltage on the secondary and on the primary will be the same as the ratio of the number of turns of both coils,

u=u^2/U^1 = N^2/N^1

we evaluate the unkown secondary voltage

u^ 2=N^2/N^1 u1

We substitute the given values -

u^2= 10/500 * 120v = 2.4v

Hence, the answer is 2.4v.

Supriya has a pre-paid electricity connection at home. On a sultry Sunday afternoon, she checks that she only has ₹9 left in the balance. She wants to use the air conditioner (AC), rated at 1.2 kW. The price of electricity is ₹10 /unit in her area. How long can she run the AC before her balance is over and the power runs out?

Answers

Answer: 0.75 hour(s) or 45 minutes

Explanation:

1 unit of electricity = 1kwh

Amount of energy consumed by 1kw load in one hour

Price per unit = ₹10

Air conditioner rating(power) = 1.2Kw

Given that balance = ₹9

Therefore, supriya's total energy cost = energy balance = ₹9

Total energy cost = power in kilowatt × time of operation (in hour) × cost per unit

₹9 = 1.2kw × time × ₹10

₹9 = 12 × time

Time = 9 / 12

Time = 0.75 hours

0.75 × 60 = 45 minutes

The energy from 0.015 moles of octane was used to heat 250 grams of water. The temperature of the water rose from 293.0 K to 371.2 K. What is the enthalpy of combustion of octane? The specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/K g.

A. -1226 kJ/mol
B. -5448 kJ/mol
C. 293.25 kJ/mol
D. 1226 kJ/mol

Answers

Answer : The correct option is, (B) -5448 kJ/mol

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the heat required by water.

[tex]q=m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)[/tex]

where,

q = heat required by water = ?

m = mass of water = 250 g

c = specific heat capacity of water = [tex]4.18J/g.K[/tex]

[tex]T_1[/tex] = initial temperature of water = 293.0 K

[tex]T_2[/tex] = final temperature of water = 371.2 K

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

[tex]q=250g\times 4.18J/g.K\times (371.2-293.0)K[/tex]

[tex]q=81719J[/tex]

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy of combustion of octane.

[tex]\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}[/tex]

where,

[tex]\Delta H[/tex] = enthalpy of combustion of octane = ?

q = heat released = -81719 J

n = moles of octane = 0.015 moles

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

[tex]\Delta H=\frac{-81719J}{0.015mole}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta H=-5447933.333J/mol=-5447.9kJ/mol\approx -5448kJ/mol[/tex]

Therefore, the enthalpy of combustion of octane is -5448 kJ/mol.

Question: A swimmer has a swimming speed of 5.75 m/s in still water. When she
heads directly across the river, she ends up travelling downstream at an angle of 40°
(with respect to a line perpendicular to the shore).
(a) What is the speed of the current?
(b) What heading would the swimmer need to have in order to reach a point directly
across the river?
(c) If the river is 15 m wide, how long would a trip directly across the river take?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 4.82 m/s

(b) The simmer need to head 57.05° upstream of the river to reach a point directly opposite the river

(c) 4.024 seconds

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

The speed of the swimmer = 5.75 m/s

The direction of the resultant motion = 40° downstream

The speed of the current = x m/s

Therefore in a given second, we have that the swimmer moves 5.75 meters across the river while the current moves x meters downstream

Which gives;

[tex]tan(40^{\circ}) = \dfrac{x}{5.75}[/tex]

x = 5.75 × tan(40°) = 4.82 m/s

The speed of the current = 4.82 m/s

(b) If the swimmer swims at a direction θ to reach a point, p, directly opposite the river, we have;

The resultant speed across the river will be the swimmer's swimming speed which is 5.75 m/s

5.75² = y² + 4.82²

y = √(5.75² - 4.82²) = √9.78

tan(θ) = 4.82/(√9.78) = 1.54

θ = tan⁻¹(1.54) = 57.05°

The simmer need to swim 57.05° upstream to reach a point directly opposite the river

(c) If the river is 15 m wide, we have;

Time (t) = Distance/speed

The component of the swimmer's speed directly across the river = 5.75/(tan(57.05°)

The component of the swimmer's speed directly across the river = 3.73 m/s

The time, t, to cross the river is therefore;

t = 15/3.73 = 4.024 seconds

A 1500 kg car on flat ground is
moving 5.25 m/s. Its engine
creates a 1250 N forward force as the car moves 42.8 m. What is its final velocity?​

Answers

Answer: 5.96m/s

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of car (m) = 1500kg

Velocity (V) = 5.25m/s

Forward force of engine = 1250N

Diatance moved = 4.8m

Final Velocity =?

Final kinetic energy = Initial kinetic energy + work done by engine

Initial kinetic energy = 0.5 × mass × velocity^2

Initial kinetic energy = 0.5 × 1500 × 5.25^2

Initial kinetic energy = 20671.875 J

Work done by engine = Force × distance

Work done by engine = 1250 × 4.8 = 6000J

Final kinetic energy = (20671.875 + 6000) J

= 26671.875 J

From kinetic energy = 0.5mv^2

26671.875 = 1/2 × 1500 × v^2

53343.75 = 1500v^2

v^2 = 35.5625

v = sqrt(35.5625)

v = 5.96m/s

Kinetic energy of the system is unrelated to the deformation of the vehicles.

C.

D.

Kinetic energy of the system is completely transformed to heat energy

Answers

Answer:

B. Kinetic energy of the system is partially used up in the deformation of the vehicles.

Explanation:

In an inelastic collision, momentum is conserved, but kinetic energy is not. Kinetic energy is lost as heat or lost in the deformation of the objects.

The correct statement about Kinetic energy of the system after the collision is that KE of the system will be partially used up in the deformation of the vehicles. Hence, option B is correct.

What is Kinetic energy?

The force that an object has because it is moving is known as kinetic energy in physics. It is defined as the quantity of effort required to accelerate anybody of a specific mass from rest to its specified velocity. The body keeps its kinetic energy after acquiring it during acceleration, barring changes in speed.

When slowing from its current pace to a condition of rest, the body expends the very same amount of energy. Any term in the Lagrangian of a system that has a derivative in regard to time is formally referred to as kinetic energy.

The momentum of an object is conserved, but kinetic energy is not in an inelastic collision. In the form of heat or by the distortion of the objects, kinetic energy is lost.

To the nearest whole number, how much would a 25.0 kg rock weigh on Uranus?

170 N | 218 N | 430 N | 532 N

Answers

Answer:

218 N

Explanation:

The weight of the object on Uranus W = mg' where m = mass of the object = 25.0 kg and g' = gravitational acceleration.

Since in the table, we are given different values, we look for the value of the gravitational acceleration because, that is the only variable there that can help us calculate the weight of the object.

From the table, the gravitational acceleration g' = 8.7 m/s².

So, the weight of the object W = mg'

= 25.0 kg × 8.7 m/s²

Radio waves can bend around buildings. An X-ray technician stands behind a wall during the use of her machine. What does this tell you about the relative wavelengths of these two types of invisible light?

Answers

Answer:

Radio waves have a wavelength between [tex]10^{-9}m[/tex] and [tex]10^{-12}m[/tex]

While,

X rays have a wavelength between 1m and 10km.

=> It is one of the condition of diffraction that the obstacle (coming in the way) must be comparable with the size of the wavelength.

=> This shows, that radio waves have a wavelength which is comparable with the size of buildings and can really easily diffract through it

=> While, X-rays are big enough to diffract through the wall.

So, if an X-ray technician stands behind a wall during the use of her machine, she will remain safe.

A boat travels at 15 m/s in a direction 45° east of north for an hour. The boat then turns and travels at 18 m/s in a direction 5° north of east for an hour.

What is the magnitude of the boat’s resultant velocity? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

16 m/s

Explanation:

First, find the displacement in the east direction.

x = (15 m/s sin 45°) (3600 s) + (18 m/s cos 5°) (3600 s)

x = 102,737 m

Next, find the displacement in the north direction.

y = (15 m/s cos 45°) (3600 s) + (18 m/s sin 5°) (3600 s)

y = 43,831 m

Find the magnitude of the displacement.

d = √(x² + y²)

d = √((102,737 m)² + (43,831 m)²)

d = 111,697 m

Finally, find the resultant velocity.

v = d / t

v = (111,697 m) / (7200 s)

v = 15.5 m/s

Rounded to the nearest whole number, the resultant velocity is 16 m/s.

Answers

Answer: mg/Cosθ

Explanation:

Taking horizontal acceleration of wedge as 'a'

FCosΘ = FsinΘ

F = mass(m) × acceleration(a) = ma

For horizontal resolution g = 0

Therefore,

Horizontal = Vertical

maCosΘ = mgSinΘ

aCosΘ = gSinΘ

a = gSinΘ/CosΘ

Recall from trigonometry :

SinΘ/Cosθ = tanΘ

Therefore,

a = gtanΘ

Normal force acing on the wedge:

mgCosΘ + maSinΘ - - - - (y)

Substitute a = gtanΘ into (y)

mgCosΘ + mgtanΘsinΘ

tanΘ = sinΘ/cosΘ

mgCosΘ + mgsinΘ/cosΘsinΘ

mgCosΘ + mgsin^2Θ/cosΘ

Factorizing

mg(Cosθ + sin^2Θ/cosΘ)

Taking the L. C. M
