Stem mass (g) = 275, 415, 563, 815, 954
Stem volume (ml) = 1100, 1215, 1425, 1610, 1742
(a). We need to convert the mass measurements to kilograms (kg) and the volume measurements to cubic meters
Using conversion of mass
[tex]1\ g=0.001\ kg[/tex]
Conservation of volume
[tex]1\ Lt=0.001\ m^3[/tex]
[tex]1\ mL=1\times10^{-6}\ m^3[/tex]
So, mass in kg
Stem mass (kg) = 0.275, 0.415, 0.563, 0.815, 0.954
Volume in m³,
Stem volume (m³) = 0.0011, 0.001215, 0.001425, 0.001610, 0.001742
(b). We need to calculate the density of the samples
Using formula of density
[tex]\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}[/tex]
Where, m = mass
V = volume
If the m = 0.275 kg and V = 0.0011 m³
Put the value into the formula
[tex]\rho=\dfrac{0.275}{0.0011}[/tex]
[tex]\rho=250\ kg/m^3[/tex]
If the m = 0.415 kg and V = 0.001215 m³
Put the value into the formula
[tex]\rho=\dfrac{0.415}{0.001215}[/tex]
[tex]\rho=341.56\ kg/m^3[/tex]
[tex]\rho=342\ kg/m^3[/tex]
If the m = 0.563 kg and V = 0.001425 m³
Put the value into the formula
[tex]\rho=\dfrac{0.563}{0.001425}[/tex]
[tex]\rho=395.08\ kg/m^3[/tex]
If the m = 0.815 kg and V = 0.001610 m³
Put the value into the formula
[tex]\rho=\dfrac{0.815}{0.001610}[/tex]
[tex]\rho=506.21\ kg/m^3[/tex]
If the m = 0.954 kg and V = 0.001742 m³
Put the value into the formula
[tex]\rho=\dfrac{0.954}{0.001742}[/tex]
[tex]\rho=547.6\ kg/m^3[/tex]
[tex]\rho=548\ kg/m^3[/tex]
(c). We need to convert the density values to scientific notation
In scientific notation
The densities are
[tex]\rho\ (kg/m^3)= 2.50\times10^{2}, 3.42\times10^{2}, 3.95\times10^{2}, 5.06\times10^{2}, 5.48\times10^{2}[/tex]
Hence, This is required solution.
A skydiver stepped out of an airplane at an altitude of 1000m fell freely for 5.00s opened her parachute and slowed to 7.00m/s in a negligible time what was the total elapsed time from leaving the airplane to landing on the ground
Answer:
t = 17.68s
Explanation:
In order to calculate the total elapsed time that skydiver takes to reache the ground, you first calculate the distance traveled by the skydiver in the first 5.00s. You use the following formula:
[tex]y=y_o-v_ot-\frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex] (1)
y: height for a time t
yo: initial height = 1000m
vo: initial velocity = 0m/s
g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2
t: time = 5.00 s
You replace the values of the parameters to get the values of the new height of the skydiver:
[tex]y=1000m-\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^2)(5.00s)^2\\\\y=877.5m[/tex]
Next, you take this value of 877.5m as the initial height of the second part of the trajectory of the skydiver. Furthermore, use the value of 7.00m/s as the initial velocity.
You use the same equation (1) with the values of the initial velocity and new height. We are interested in the time for which the skydiver arrives to the ground, then y = 0
[tex]0=877.5-7.00t-4.9t^2[/tex] (2)
The equation (2) is a quadratic equation, you solve it for t with the quadratic formula:
[tex]t_{1,2}=\frac{-(-7.00)\pm \sqrt{(-7.00)^2-4(-4.9)(877.5)}}{2(-4.9)}\\\\t_{1,2}=\frac{7.00\pm 131.33}{-9.8}\\\\t_1=12.68s\\\\t_2=-14.11s[/tex]
You use the positive value of t1 because it has physical meaning.
Finally, you sum the times of both parts of the trajectory:
total time = 5.00s + 12.68s = 17.68s
The total elapsed time taken by the skydiver to arrive to the ground from the airplane is 17.68s
A uniformly charged sphere has a potential on its surface of 450 V. At a radial distance of 8.1 m from this surface, the potential is 150 V. What is the radius of the sphere
Answer:
The radius of the sphere is 4.05 m
Explanation:
Given;
potential at surface, [tex]V_s[/tex] = 450 V
potential at radial distance, [tex]V_r[/tex] = 150
radial distance, l = 8.1 m
Apply Coulomb's law of electrostatic force;
[tex]V = \frac{KQ}{r} \\\\V_s = \frac{KQ}{r} \\\\V_r = \frac{KQ}{r+ l}[/tex]
[tex]450 = \frac{KQ}{r} ------equation (i)\\\\150 = \frac{KQ}{r+8.1} ------equation (ii)\\\\divide \ equation (i)\ by \ equation \ (ii)\\\\\frac{450}{150} = (\frac{KQ}{r} )*(\frac{r+8.1}{KQ} )\\\\3 = \frac{r+8.1}{r} \\\\3r = r + 8.1\\\\2r = 8.1\\\\r = \frac{8.1}{2} \\\\r = 4.05 \ m[/tex]
Therefore, the radius of the sphere is 4.05 m
A Nearsighted Eye. A certain very nearsighted person cannot focus on anything farther than 36.0 cm from the eye. Consider the simplified model of the eye. In a simplified model of the human eye, the aqueous and vitreous humors and the lens all have a refractive index of 1.40, and all the refraction occurs at the cornea, whose vertex is 2.60 cm from the retina.
Required:
a. If the radius of curvature of the cornea is 0.65 cm when the eye is focusing on an object 36.0 cm from the cornea vertex and the indexes of refraction are as described before, what is the distance from the cornea vertex to the retina?
b. What does this tell you about the shape of the nearsighted eye?
1. This distance is greater than for the normal eye.
2. This distance is shorter than for the normal eye.
Answer:
a) The distance from the cornea vertex to the retina is 2.37 cm
b) This distance is shorter than for the normal eye.
Explanation:
a) Let refractive index of air,
n(air) = x = 1
Let refractive index of lens,
n(lens) = y = 1.4
Object distance, s = 36 cm
Radius of curvature, R = 0.65 cm
The distance from the cornea vertex to the retina is the image distance because image is formed in the retina.
Image distance, s' = ?
(x/s) + (y/s') = (y-x)/R
(1/36) + (1.4/s') = (1.4 - 1)/0.65
1.4/s' = 0.62 - 0.028
1.4/s' = 0.592
s' = 1.4/0.592
s' = 2.37 cm
Distance from the cornea vertex to the retina is 2.37 cm
(b) For a normal eye, the distance between the cornea vertex and the retina is 2.60 cm. Since 2.37 < 2.60, this distance is shorter than for normal eye.
A particle leaves the origin with a speed of 3 106 m/s at 38 degrees to the positive x axis. It moves in a uniform electric field directed along positive y axis. Find Ey such that the particle will cross the x axis at x
Answer:
If the particle is an electron [tex]E_y = 3.311 * 10^3 N/C[/tex]
If the particle is a proton, [tex]E_y = 6.08 * 10^6 N/C[/tex]
Explanation:
Initial speed at the origin, [tex]u = 3 * 10^6 m/s[/tex]
[tex]\theta = 38^0[/tex] to +ve x-axis
The particle crosses the x-axis at , x = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m
The particle can either be an electron or a proton:
Mass of an electron, [tex]m_e = 9.1 * 10^{-31} kg[/tex]
Mass of a proton, [tex]m_p = 1.67 * 10^{-27} kg[/tex]
The electric field intensity along the positive y axis [tex]E_y[/tex], can be given by the formula:
[tex]E_y = \frac{2 m u^2 sin \theta cos \theta}{qx} \\[/tex]
If the particle is an electron:
[tex]E_y = \frac{2 m_e u^2 sin \theta cos \theta}{qx} \\[/tex]
[tex]E_y = \frac{2 * 9.1 * 10^{-31} * (3*10^6)^2 *(sin38)( cos38)}{1.6*10^{-19} * 0.015} \\[/tex]
[tex]E_y = 3311.13 N/C\\E_y = 3.311 * 10^3 N/C[/tex]
If the particle is a proton:
[tex]E_y = \frac{2 m_p u^2 sin \theta cos \theta}{qx} \\[/tex]
[tex]E_y = \frac{2 * 1.67 * 10^{-27} * (3*10^6)^2 *(sin38)( cos38)}{1.6*10^{-19} * 0.015} \\[/tex]
[tex]E_y = 6.08 * 10^6 N/C[/tex]
Is it possible to do work on an object without changing the kinetic energy of the object? Now Why?
a) Yes, it is possible by raising the object to a greater height without acceleration.
b) Yes, it is possible by raising the object to a greater height with acceleration
c) Yes, it is possible by moving the object without acceleration at the same height.
d) Yes, it is possible by moving the object with acceleration at the same height.
Answer:
(a) Yes, it is possible by raising the object to a greater height without acceleration.
Explanation:
The work-energy theorem states that work done on an object is equal to the change in kinetic energy, and change in kinetic energy requires a change in velocity.
If kinetic energy will not change, then velocity will not change, this means that there will be constant velocity and an object with a constant velocity is not accelerating.
If the object is not accelerating (without acceleration) and it remains at the same height (change in height = 0, and mgh = 0).
Thus, for work to be done on the object, without changing the kinetic energy of the object, the object must be raised to a greater height without acceleration.
Correct option is " (a) Yes, it is possible by raising the object to a greater height without acceleration".
That 85 kg paratrooper from the 50's was moving at constant speed of 56 m/s because the air was applying a frictional drag force to him that matched his weight. If he fell this way for 40 m, how much heat was generated by this frictional drag force in J
Answer:
46648 J
Explanation:
mass m= 85 Kg
velocity v = 56 m/s
distance covered s =40 m
According to Question,
frictional drag force to him that matched his weight
[tex]\Rightarrow F_d =mg\\=85\times9.81=833 N[/tex]
Therefore, work done by practometer against the drag force = heat was generated by this frictional drag force in J
W=Q= F_d×s
=833×56 = 46648 J
A spherical balloon is made from a material whose mass is 4.30 kg. The thickness of the material is negligible compared to the 1.54-m radius of the balloon. The balloon is filled with helium (He) at a temperature of 289 K and just floats in air, neither rising nor falling. The density of the surrounding air is 1.19 kg/m3. Find the absolute pressure of the helium gas.
Answer:
P = 5.97 × 10^(5) Pa
Explanation:
We are given;
Mass of balloon;m_b = 4.3 kg
Radius;r = 1.54 m
Temperature;T = 289 K
Density;ρ = 1.19 kg/m³
We know that, density = mass/volume
So, mass = Volume x Density
We also know that Force = mg
Thus;
F = mg = Vρg
Where m = mass of balloon(m_b) + mass of helium (m_he)
So,
(m_b + m_he)g = Vρg
g will cancel out to give;
(m_b + m_he) = Vρ - - - eq1
Since a sphere shaped balloon, Volume(V) = (4/3)πr³
V = (4/3)π(1.54)³
V = 15.3 m³
Plugging relevant values into equation 1,we have;
(3 + m_he) = 15.3 × 1.19
m_he = 18.207 - 3
m_he = 15.207 kg = 15207 g
Molecular weight of helium gas is 4 g/mol
Thus, Number of moles of helium gas is ; no. of moles = 15207/4 ≈ 3802 moles
From ideal gas equation, we know that;
P = nRT/V
Where,
P is absolute pressure
n is number of moles
R is the gas constant and has a value lf 8.314 J/mol.k
T is temperature
V is volume
Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
P = (3802 × 8.314 × 289)/15.3
P = 597074.53 Pa
P = 5.97 × 10^(5) Pa
The exit nozzle in a jet engine receives air at 1200 K, 150 kPa with negligible kinetic energy. The exit pressure is 80 kPa, and the process is reversible and adiabatic. Use constant specific heat at 300 K to find the
Complete question:
The exit nozzle in a jet engine receives air at 1200 K, 150 kPa with negligible kinetic energy. The exit pressure is 80 kPa, and the process is reversible and adiabatic. Use constant specific heat at 300 K to find the exit velocity.
Answer:
The exit velocity is 629.41 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
initial temperature, T₁ = 1200K
initial pressure, P₁ = 150 kPa
final pressure, P₂ = 80 kPa
specific heat at 300 K, Cp = 1004 J/kgK
k = 1.4
Calculate final temperature;
[tex]T_2 = T_1(\frac{P_2}{P_1})^{\frac{k-1 }{k}[/tex]
k = 1.4
[tex]T_2 = T_1(\frac{P_2}{P_1})^{\frac{k-1 }{k}}\\\\T_2 = 1200(\frac{80}{150})^{\frac{1.4-1 }{1.4}}\\\\T_2 = 1002.714K[/tex]
Work done is given as;
[tex]W = \frac{1}{2} *m*(v_i^2 - v_e^2)[/tex]
inlet velocity is negligible;
[tex]v_e = \sqrt{\frac{2W}{m} } = \sqrt{2*C_p(T_1-T_2)} \\\\v_e = \sqrt{2*1004(1200-1002.714)}\\\\v_e = \sqrt{396150.288} \\\\v_e = 629.41 \ m/s[/tex]
Therefore, the exit velocity is 629.41 m/s
when their center-to-center separation is 50 cm. The spheres are then connected by a thin conducting wire. When the wire is removed, the spheres repel each other with an electrostatic force of 0.2525 N. What were the initial charges on the spheres
Answer:
q1 = 7.6uC , -2.3 uC
q2 = 7.6uC , -2.3 uC
( q1 , q2 ) = ( 7.6 uC , -2.3 uC ) OR ( -2.3 uC , 7.6 uC )
Explanation:
Solution:-
- We have two stationary identical conducting spheres with initial charges ( q1 and q2 ). Such that the force of attraction between them was F = 0.6286 N.
- To model the electrostatic force ( F ) between two stationary charged objects we can apply the Coulomb's Law, which states:
[tex]F = k\frac{|q_1|.|q_2|}{r^2}[/tex]
Where,
k: The coulomb's constant = 8.99*10^9
- Coulomb's law assume the objects as point charges with separation or ( r ) from center to center.
- We can apply the assumption and approximate the spheres as point charges under the basis that charge is uniformly distributed over and inside the sphere.
- Therefore, the force of attraction between the spheres would be:
[tex]\frac{F}{k}*r^2 =| q_1|.|q_2| \\\\\frac{0.6286}{8.99*10^9}*(0.5)^2 = | q_1|.|q_2| \\\\ | q_1|.|q_2| = 1.74805 * 10^-^1^1[/tex] ... Eq 1
- Once, we connect the two spheres with a conducting wire the charges redistribute themselves until the charges on both sphere are equal ( q' ). This is the point when the re-distribution is complete ( current stops in the wire).
- We will apply the principle of conservation of charges. As charge is neither destroyed nor created. Therefore,
[tex]q' + q' = q_1 + q_2\\\\q' = \frac{q_1 + q_2}{2}[/tex]
- Once the conducting wire is connected. The spheres at the same distance of ( r = 0.5m) repel one another. We will again apply the Coulombs Law as follows for the force of repulsion (F = 0.2525 N ) as follows:
[tex]\frac{F}{k}*r^2 = (\frac{q_1 + q_2}{2})^2\\\\\sqrt{\frac{0.2525}{8.99*10^9}*0.5^2} = \frac{q_1 + q_2}{2}\\\\2.64985*10^-^6 = \frac{q_1 + q_2}{2}\\\\q_1 + q_2 = 5.29969*10^-^6[/tex] .. Eq2
- We have two equations with two unknowns. We can solve them simultaneously to solve for initial charges ( q1 and q2 ) as follows:
[tex]-\frac{1.74805*10^-^1^1}{q_2} + q_2 = 5.29969*10^-^6 \\\\q^2_2 - (5.29969*10^-^6)q_2 - 1.74805*10^-^1^1 = 0\\\\q_2 = 0.0000075998, -0.000002300123[/tex]
[tex]q_1 = -\frac{1.74805*10^-^1^1}{-0.0000075998} = -2.3001uC\\\\q_1 = \frac{1.74805*10^-^1^1}{0.000002300123} = 7.59982uC\\[/tex]
An electron of mass 9.11 x 10^-31 kg has an initial speed of 4.00 x 10^5 m/s. It travels in a straight line, and its speed increases to 6.60 x10^5 m/s in a distance of 5.40 cm. Assume its acceleration is constant.
Required:
a. Determine the magnitude of the force exerted on the electron.
b. Compare this force (F) with the weight of the electron (Fg), which we ignored.
Answer:
a. F = 2.32*10^-18 N
b. The force F is 2.59*10^11 times the weight of the electron
Explanation:
a. In order to calculate the magnitude of the force exerted on the electron you first calculate the acceleration of the electron, by using the following formula:
[tex]v^2=v_o^2+2ax[/tex] (1)
v: final speed of the electron = 6.60*10^5 m/s
vo: initial speed of the electron = 4.00*10^5 m/s
a: acceleration of the electron = ?
x: distance traveled by the electron = 5.40cm = 0.054m
you solve the equation (2) for a and replace the values of the parameters:
[tex]a=\frac{v^2-v_o^2}{2x}=\frac{(6.60*10^5m/s)^2-(4.00*10^5m/s)^2}{2(0.054m)}\\\\a=2.55*10^{12}\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]
Next, you use the second Newton law to calculate the force:
[tex]F=ma[/tex]
m: mass of the electron = 9.11*10^-31kg
[tex]F=(9.11*10^{-31}kg)(2.55*10^{12}m/s^2)=2.32*10^{-18}N[/tex]
The magnitude of the force exerted on the electron is 2.32*10^-18 N
b. The weight of the electron is given by:
[tex]F_g=mg=(9.11*10^{-31}kg)(9.8m/s^2)=8.92*10^{-30}N[/tex]
The quotient between the weight of the electron and the force F is:
[tex]\frac{F}{F_g}=\frac{2.32*10^{-18}N}{8.92*10^{-30}N}=2.59*10^{11}[/tex]
The force F is 2.59*10^11 times the weight of the electron

A glass flask whose volume is 1000 cm^3 at a temperature of 1.00°C is completely filled with mercury at the same temperature. When the flask and mercury are warmed together to a temperature of 52.0°C , a volume of 8.50 cm^3 of mercury overflows the flask.Required:If the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is βHg = 1.80×10^−4 /K , compute βglass, the coefficient of volume expansion of the glass. Express your answer in inverse kelvins.
Answer:
the coefficient of volume expansion of the glass is [tex]\mathbf{ ( \beta_{glass} )= 1.333 *10^{-5} / K}[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that:
Initial volume of the glass flask = 1000 cm³ = 10⁻³ m³
temperature of the glass flask and mercury= 1.00° C
After heat is applied ; the final temperature = 52.00° C
Temperature change ΔT = 52.00° C - 1.00° C = 51.00° C
Volume of the mercury overflow = 8.50 cm^3 = 8.50 × 10⁻⁶ m³
the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is 1.80 × 10⁻⁴ / K
The increase in the volume of the mercury = 10⁻³ m³ × 51.00 × 1.80 × 10⁻⁴
The increase in the volume of the mercury = [tex]9.18*10^{-6} \ m^3[/tex]
Increase in volume of the glass = 10⁻³ × 51.00 × [tex]\beta _{glass}[/tex]
Now; the mercury overflow = Increase in volume of the mercury - increase in the volume of the flask
the mercury overflow = [tex](9.18*10^{-6} - 51.00* \beta_{glass}*10^{-3})\ m^3[/tex]
[tex]8.50*10^{-6} = (9.18*10^{-6} -51.00* \beta_{glass}* 10^{-3} )\ m^3[/tex]
[tex]8.50*10^{-6} - 9.18*10^{-6} = ( -51.00* \beta_{glass}* 10^{-3} )\ m^3[/tex]
[tex]-6.8*10^{-7} = ( -51.00* \beta_{glass}* 10^{-3} )\ m^3[/tex]
[tex]6.8*10^{-7} = ( 51.00* \beta_{glass}* 10^{-3} )\ m^3[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{6.8*10^{-7}}{51.00 * 10^{-3}}= ( \beta_{glass} )[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{ ( \beta_{glass} )= 1.333 *10^{-5} / K}[/tex]
Thus; the coefficient of volume expansion of the glass is [tex]\mathbf{ ( \beta_{glass} )= 1.333 *10^{-5} / K}[/tex]
The smallest shift you can reliably measure on the screen is about 0.2 grid units. This shift corresponds to the precision of positions measured with the best Earth-based optical telescopes. If you cannot measure an angle smaller than this, what is the maximum distance at which a star can be located and still have a measurable parallax
Answer:
The distance is [tex]d = 1.5 *10^{15} \ km[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The smallest shift is [tex]d = 0.2 \ grid \ units[/tex]
Generally a grid unit is [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex] of an arcsec
This implies that 0.2 grid unit is [tex]k = \frac{0.2}{10} = 0.02 \ arc sec[/tex]
The maximum distance at which a star can be located and still have a measurable parallax is mathematically represented as
[tex]d = \frac{1}{k}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]d = \frac{1}{0.02}[/tex]
[tex]d = 50 \ parsec[/tex]
Note [tex]1 \ parsec \ \to 3.26 \ light \ year \ \to 3.086*10^{13} \ km[/tex]
So [tex]d = 50 * 3.08 *10^{13}[/tex]
[tex]d = 1.5 *10^{15} \ km[/tex]
A long horizontal hose of diameter 3.4 cm is connected to a faucet. At the other end, there is a nozzle of diameter 1.8 cm. Water squirts from the nozzle at velocity 14 m/sec. Assume that the water has no viscosity or other form of energy dissipation.
A) What is the velocity of the water in the hose ?
B) What is the pressure differential between the water in the hose and water in the nozzle ?
C) How long will it take to fill a tub of volume 120 liters with the hose ?
Answer:
a) v₁ = 3.92 m / s , b) ΔP = = 9.0 10⁴ Pa, c) t = 0.0297 s
Explanation:
This is a fluid mechanics exercise
a) let's use the continuity equation
let's use index 1 for the hose and index 2 for the nozzle
A₁ v₁ = A₂v₂
in area of a circle is
A = π r² = π d² / 4
we substitute in the continuity equation
π d₁² / 4 v₁ = π d₂² / 4 v₂
d₁² v₁ = d₂² v₂
the speed of the water in the hose is v1
v₁ = v₂ d₂² / d₁²
v₁ = 14 (1.8 / 3.4)²
v₁ = 3.92 m / s
b) they ask us for the pressure difference, for this we use Bernoulli's equation
P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + m g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + mg y2
as the hose is horizontal y₁ = y₂
P₁ - P₂ = ½ ρ (v₂² - v₁²)
ΔP = ½ 1000 (14² - 3.92²)
ΔP = 90316.8 Pa = 9.0 10⁴ Pa
c) how long does a tub take to flat
the continuity equation is equal to the system flow
Q = A₁v₁
Q = V t
where V is the volume, let's equalize the equations
V t = A₁ v₁
t = A₁ v₁ / V
A₁ = π d₁² / 4
let's reduce it to SI units
V = 120 l (1 m³ / 1000 l) = 0.120 m³
d1 = 3.4 cm (1 m / 100cm) = 3.4 10⁻² m
let's substitute and calculate
t = π d₁²/4 v1 / V
t = π (3.4 10⁻²)²/4 3.92 / 0.120

A person is standing on an elevator initially at rest at the first floor of a high building. The elevator then begins to ascend to the sixth floor, which is a known distance h above the starting point. The elevator undergoes an unknown constant acceleration of magnitude a for a given time interval T. Then the elevator moves at a constant velocity for a time interval 4T. Finally the elevator brakes with an acceleration of magnitude a, (the same magnitude as the initial acceleration), for a time interval T until stopping at the sixth floor.
Answer:
The found acceleration in terms of h and t is:
[tex]a=\frac{h}{5(t_1)^2}[/tex]
Explanation:
(The complete question is given in the attached picture. We need to find the acceleration in terms of h and t in this question)
We are given 3 stages of movement of elevator. We'll first model them each of the stage one by one to find the height covered in each stage. After that we'll find the total height covered by adding heights covered in each stage, and equate it to Total height h. From that we can find the formula for acceleration.
Stage 1Constant acceleration, starts from rest.
Distance = [tex]y = \frac{1}{2}a(t_1)^2[/tex]
Velocity = [tex]v_1=at_1[/tex]
Stage 2Constant velocity where
Velocity = [tex]v_o=v_1=at_1[/tex]
Distance =
[tex]y_2=v_2(t_2)\\\text{Where~}t_2=4t_1 ~\text{and}~ v_2=v_1=at_1\\y_2=(at_1)(4t_1)\\y_2=4a(t_1)^2\\[/tex]Stage 3Constant deceleration where
Velocity = [tex]v_0=v_1=at_1[/tex]
Distance =
[tex]y_3=v_1t_3-\frac{1}{2}a(t_3)^2\\\text{Where}~t_3=t_1\\y_3=v_1t_1-\frac{1}{2}a(t_1)^2\\\text{Where}~ v_1t_1=a(t_1)^2\\y_3=a(t_1)^2-\frac{1}{2}a(t_1)^2\\\text{Subtracting both terms:}\\y_3=\frac{1}{2}a(t_1)^2[/tex]
Total HeightTotal height = y₁ + y₂ + y₃
Total height = [tex]\frac{1}{2}a(t_1)^2+4a(t_1)^2+\frac{1}{2}a(t_1)^2 = 5a(t_1)^2[/tex]
AccelerationFind acceleration by rearranging the found equation of total height.
Total Height = h
h = 5a(t₁)²
[tex]a=\frac{h}{5(t_1)^2}[/tex]
A hockey puck on a frozen pond is given an initial speed of 20.0 m/s. If the puck always remains on the ice and slides 115 m before coming to rest, determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and ice.
Answer:
μ_k = 0.1773
Explanation:
We are given;
Initial velocity;u = 20 m/s
Final velocity;v = 0 m/s (since it comes to rest)
Distance before coming to rest;s = 115 m
Let's find the acceleration using Newton's second law of motion;
v² = u² + 2as
Making a the subject, we have;
a = (v² - u²)/2s
Plugging relevant values;
a = (0² - 20²)/(2 × 115)
a = -400/230
a = -1.739 m/s²
From the question, the only force acting on the puck in the x direction is the force of friction. Since friction always opposes motion, we see that:
F_k = −ma - - - (1)
We also know that F_k is defined by;
F_k = μ_k•N
Where;
μ_k is coefficient of kinetic friction
N is normal force which is (mg)
Since gravity acts in the negative direction, the normal force will be positive.
Thus;
F_k = μ_k•mg - - - (2)
where g is acceleration due to gravity.
Thus,equating equation 1 and 2,we have;
−ma = μ_k•mg
m will cancel out to give;
-a = μ_k•g
μ_k = -a/g
g has a constant value of 9.81 m/s², so;
μ_k = - (-1.739/9.81)
μ_k = 0.1773
The coefficient of kinetic friction between the hockey puck and ice is equal to 0.178
Given the following data:
Initial speed = 20 m/sFinal velocity = 0 m/s (since it came to rest)Distance = 115 mScientific data:
Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]To determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the hockey puck and ice:
First of all, we would calculate the acceleration of the hockey puck by using the third equation of motion.
[tex]V^2 = U^2 + 2aS\\\\0^2 =20^2 + 2a(115)\\\\-400=230a\\\\a=\frac{-400}{230}[/tex]
Acceleration, a = -1.74 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]
Note: The negative signs indicates that the hockey puck is slowing down or decelerating.
From Newton's Second Law of Motion, we have:
[tex]\sum F_x = F_k + F_n =0\\\\F_k =- F_n\\\\\mu mg =-ma\\\\\mu = \frac{-a}{g}\\\\\mu = \frac{-(-1.74)}{9.8}\\\\\mu = \frac{1.74}{9.8}[/tex]
Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.178

A soccer ball is released from rest at the top of a grassy incline. After 2.2 seconds, the ball travels 22 meters. One second later, the ball reaches the bottom of the incline. (Assume that the acceleration was constant.) How long was the incline
Answer:
x = 46.54m
Explanation:
In order to find the length of the incline you use the following formula:
[tex]x=v_ot+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex] (1)
vo: initial speed of the soccer ball = 0 m/s
t: time
a: acceleration
You first use the the fact that the ball traveled 22 m in 2.2 s. Whit this information you can calculate the acceleration a from the equation (1):
[tex]22m=\frac{1}{2}a(2.2s)^2\\\\a=9.09\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex] (2)
Next, you calculate the distance traveled by the ball for t = 3.2 s (one second later respect to t = 2.2s). The values of the distance calculated is the lenght of the incline:
[tex]x=\frac{1}{2}(9.09m/s^2)(3.2s)^2=46.54m[/tex] (3)
The length of the incline is 46.54 m

A 50-kg block is pushed a distance of 5.0 m across a floor by a horizontal force Fp whose magnitude is 150 N. Fp is parallel to the displacement of the block. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.25.
a) What is the total work done on the block?
b) If the box started from rest, what is the final speed of the block?
Answer:
a) WT = 137.5 J
b) v2 = 2.34 m/s
Explanation:
a) The total work done on the block is given by the following formula:
[tex]W_T=F_pd-F_fd=(F_p-F_f)d[/tex] (1)
Fp: force parallel to the displacement of the block = 150N
Ff: friction force
d: distance = 5.0 m
Then, you first calculate the friction force by using the following relation:
[tex]F_f=\mu_k N=\mu_k Mg[/tex] (2)
μk: coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.25
M: mass of the block = 50kg
g: gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s^2
Next, you replace the equation (2) into the equation (1) and solve for WT:
[tex]W_T=(F_p-\mu_kMg)d=(150N-(0.25)(50kg)(9.8m/s^2))(5.0m)\\\\W_T=137.5J[/tex]
The work done over the block is 137.5 J
b) If the block started from rest, you can use the following equation to calculate the final speed of the block:
[tex]W_T=\Delta K=\frac{1}{2}M(v_2^2-v_1^2)[/tex] (3)
WT: total work = 137.5 J
v2: final speed = ?
v1: initial speed of the block = 0m/s
You solve the equation (3) for v2:
[tex]v_2=\sqrt{\frac{2W_T}{M}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(137.5J)}{50kg}}=2.34\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
The final speed of the block is 2.34 m/s
A block rests on a frictionless horizontal surface and is attached to a spring. When set into simple harmonic motion, the block oscillates back and forth with an angular frequency of 8.1 rad/s. The drawing shows the position of the block when the spring is unstrained. This position is labeled x= 0 m. The drawing also shows a small bottle located 0.080 m to the right of this position. The block is pulled to the right, stretching the spring by 0.050 m, and is then thrown to the left. In order for the block to knock over the bottle,it must be thrown with a speed exceeding v0. Ignoring the width of the block, find v0.
Answer:
v₀ = 0.5058 m/s
Explanation:
From the question, for the block to hit the bottle, the elastic potential energy of the spring at the bottle (x = 0.08 m) should be equal to the sum of the elastic potential energy of the spring at x = 0.05 m and the kinetic energy of block at x = 0.05 m
Now, the potential energy of the block at x = 0.08 m is ½kx²
where;
k is the spring constant given by; k = ω²m
ω is the angular velocity of the oscillation
m is the mass of the block.
Thus, potential energy of the spring at the bottle(x = 0.08 m) is;
U = ½ω²m(0.08m)²
Also, potential energy of the spring at the bottle(x = 0.05 m) is;
U = ½ω²m(0.05m)²
and the kinetic energy of the block at x = 0.05 m is;
K = ½mv₀²
Thus;
½ω²m(0.08)² = ½ω²m(0.05)² + ½mv₀²
Inspecting this, ½m will cancel out to give;
ω²(0.08)² = ω²(0.05)² + v₀²
Making v₀ the subject, we have;
v₀ = ω√((0.08)² - (0.05)²)
So,
v₀ = 8.1√((0.08)² - (0.05)²)
v₀ = 0.5058 m/s
Two guitarists attempt to play the same note of wavelength 6.50 cm at the same time, but one of the instruments is slightly out of tune. Consequently, a 17.0-Hz beat frequency is heard between the two instruments. What were the possible wavelengths of the out-of-tune guitar’s note? Express your answers, separated by commas, in centimeters to three significant figures IN cm.
Answer:
The two value of the wavelength for the out of tune guitar is
[tex]\lambda _2 = (6.48,6.52) \ cm[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The wavelength of the note is [tex]\lambda = 6.50 \ cm = 0.065 \ m[/tex]
The difference in beat frequency is [tex]\Delta f = 17.0 \ Hz[/tex]
Generally the frequency of the note played by the guitar that is in tune is
[tex]f_1 = \frac{v_s}{\lambda}[/tex]
Where [tex]v_s[/tex] is the speed of sound with a constant value [tex]v_s = 343 \ m/s[/tex]
[tex]f_1 = \frac{343}{0.0065}[/tex]
[tex]f_1 = 5276.9 \ Hz[/tex]
The difference in beat is mathematically represented as
[tex]\Delta f = |f_1 - f_2|[/tex]
Where [tex]f_2[/tex] is the frequency of the sound from the out of tune guitar
[tex]f_2 =f_1 \pm \Delta f[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]f_2 =f_1 + \Delta f[/tex]
[tex]f_2 = 5276.9 + 17.0[/tex]
[tex]f_2 = 5293.9 \ Hz[/tex]
The wavelength for this frequency is
[tex]\lambda_2 = \frac{343 }{5293.9}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda_2 = 0.0648 \ m[/tex]
[tex]\lambda_2 = 6.48 \ cm[/tex]
For the second value of the second frequency
[tex]f_2 = f_1 - \Delta f[/tex]
[tex]f_2 = 5276.9 -17[/tex]
[tex]f_2 = 5259.9 Hz[/tex]
The wavelength for this frequency is
[tex]\lambda _2 = \frac{343}{5259.9}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda _2 = 0.0652 \ m[/tex]
[tex]\lambda _2 = 6.52 \ cm[/tex]
This question involves the concepts of beat frequency and wavelength.
The possible wavelengths of the out-of-tune guitar are "6.48 cm" and "6.52 cm".
The beat frequency is given by the following formula:
[tex]f_b=|f_1-f_2|\\\\[/tex]
f₂ = [tex]f_b[/tex] ± f₁
where,
f₂ = frequency of the out-of-tune guitar = ?
[tex]f_b[/tex] = beat frequency = 17 Hz
f₁ = frequency of in-tune guitar = [tex]\frac{speed\ of\ sound\ in\ air}{\lambda_1}=\frac{343\ m/s}{0.065\ m}=5276.9\ Hz[/tex]
Therefore,
f₂ = 5276.9 Hz ± 17 HZ
f₂ = 5293.9 Hz (OR) 5259.9 Hz
Now, calculating the possible wavelengths:
[tex]\lambda_2=\frac{speed\ of\ sound}{f_2}\\\\\lambda_2 = \frac{343\ m/s}{5293.9\ Hz}\ (OR)\ \frac{343\ m/s}{5259.9\ Hz}\\\\[/tex]
λ₂ = 6.48 cm (OR) 6.52 cm
