Light rays from stars bend toward smaller angles as they enter Earth's atmosphere. a. Explain why this happens using Snell's law and the speed of light. b. Where are the actual stars in relation to their apparent position as viewed from the Earth's surface?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Following are the answer to this question:

Explanation:

In option (a):

The principle of Snells informs us that as light travels from the less dense medium to a denser layer, like water to air or a thinner layer of the air to the thicker ones, it bent to usual — an abstract feature that would be on the surface of all objects. Mostly, on the contrary, glow shifts from a denser with a less dense medium. This angle between both the usual and the light conditions rays is referred to as the refractive angle.  Throughout in scenario, the light from its stars in the upper orbit, the surface area of both the Earth tends to increase because as light flows from the outer atmosphere towards the Earth, it defined above, to a lesser angle.

In option (b):

Rays of light, that go directly down wouldn't bend, whilst also sun source which joins the upper orbit was reflected light from either a thicker distance and flex to the usual, following roughly the direction of the curve of the earth.  Throughout the zenith specific position earlier in this thread, astronomical bodies appear throughout the right position while those close to a horizon seem to have been brightest than any of those close to the sky, and please find the attachment of the diagram.

In 1898, the world land speed record was set by Gaston Chasseloup-Laubat driving a car named Jeantaud. His speed was 39.24 mph (63.15 km/h), much lower than the limit on our interstate highways today. Repeat the calculations of Example 2.7 (assume the car accelerates for 6 miles to get up to speed, is then timed for a one-mile distance, and accelerates for another 6 miles to come to a stop) for the Jeantaud car. (Assume the car moves in the +x direction.)
Find the acceleration for the first 6 miles.

Answers

Answer:

the acceleration [tex]a^{\to} = (0.0159 \ \ m/s^2 )i[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that:

the initial speed v₁ = 0 m/s i.e starting from rest ; since the car accelerates at a distance Δx = 6 miles in order to teach that final speed v₂ of 63.15 km/h.

So;  the acceleration for the first 6 miles can be calculated by using the formula:

v₂² = v₁² + 2a (Δx)

Making acceleration  a the subject of the formula in the above expression ; we have:

v₂² - v₁² = 2a (Δx)

[tex]a = \dfrac{v_2^2 - v_1^2 }{2 \Delta x}[/tex]

[tex]a = \dfrac{(63.15 \ km/s)^2 - (0 \ m/s)^2 }{2 (6 \ miles)}[/tex]

[tex]a = \dfrac{(17.54 \ m/s)^2 - (0 \ m/s)^2 }{2 (9.65*10^3 \ m)}[/tex]

[tex]a =0.0159 \ m/s^2[/tex]

Thus;

Assume the car moves in the +x direction;

the acceleration [tex]a^{\to} = (0.0159 \ \ m/s^2 )i[/tex]

In a device called the ballistic pendulum, a compressed spring is used to launch a steel ball horizontally into a soft target hanging from a string. The ball embeds in the target and the two swing together from the string. Describe the energy transfers and/or transformations that take place during the use of the ballistic pendulum and at what points they occur

Answers

Answer:

When the spring in the ballistic pendulum is compressed, energy is stored up in the spring as potential energy. When the steel ball is launched by the spring, the stored up potential energy of the compressed spring is transformed and transferred into the kinetic energy of the steel ball as it flies off to hit its target. On hitting the soft target, some of the kinetic energy of the steel ball is transferred to the soft target (since they stick together), and they both start to swing together. During the process of swinging, the system's energy is transformed between kinetic and potential energy. At the maximum  displacement of the ball from its point of rest, all the energy is converted to potential energy of the system. At the lowest point of travel (at the rest point), all the energy of the system is transformed into kinetic energy. In between these two points, energy the energy of the system is a combination of both kinetic and potential energy.

In the end, all the energy will be transformed and lost as heat to the surrounding; due to the air resistance around; bringing the system to a halt.

Speed of a wave is 242 m/s

The distance between crests is 0.11 m

We need to find the frequency of the wave. The distance between crests is called wavelength of a wave. So,

[tex]v=f\lambda\\\\f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{242}{0.11}\\\\f=2200\ Hz[/tex]

Two small pith balls, each of mass m = 14.2 g, are suspended from the ceiling of the physics lab by 0.5 m long fine strings and are not moving. If the angle which each string makes with the vertical is θθ = 29.1°, and the charges on the two balls are equal, what is the magnitude of that charge

Answers

Answer:

1.424 μC

Explanation:

I'm assuming here, that the charged ball is suspended by the string. If the string also is deflected by the angle α, then the forces acting on it would be: mg (acting downwards),

tension T (acting along the string - to the pivot point), and

F (electric force – acting along the line connecting the charges).

We then have something like this

x: T•sin α = F,

y: T•cosα = mg.

Dividing the first one by the second one we have

T•sin α/ T•cosα = F/mg, ultimately,

tan α = F/mg.

Since we already know that

q1=q2=q, and

r=2•L•sinα,

k=9•10^9 N•m²/C²

Remember,

F =k•q1•q2/r², if we substitute for r, we have

F = k•q²/(2•L•sinα)².

tan α = F/mg =

= k•q²/(2•L•sinα)² •mg.

q = (2•L•sinα) • √(m•g•tanα/k)=

=(2•0.5•0.486) • √(0.0142•9.8•0.557/9•10^9) =

q = 0.486 • √(8.61•10^-12)

q = 0.486 • 2.93•10^-6

q = 1.424•10^-6 C

q = 1.424 μC.

Part C
In which direction does the teeter-totter rotate if the adult applies the force at a distance of 2.0 m from the pivot?
(clockwise/counterclockwise)

Answers

Answer:

By convention a negative torque leads to clockwise rotation and a positive torque leads to counterclockwise rotation.

here weight of the child =21kgx9.8m/s2 = 205.8N

the torque exerted by the child Tc = - (1.8)(205.8) = -370.44N-m ,negative sign is inserted because this torque is clockwise and is therefore negative by convention.

torque exerted by adult Ta = 3(151) = 453N , counterclockwise torque.

net torque Tnet = -370.44+453 =82.56N , which is positive means counterclockwise rotation.

b) Ta = 2.5x151 = 377.5N-m

Tnet = -370.44+377.5 = 7.06N-m , positive ,counterclockwise rotation.

c)Ta = 2x151 = 302N-m

Tnet = -370.44+302 = -68.44N-m, negative,clockwise rotation.

In 1949, an automobile manufacturing company introduced a sports car (the "Model A") which could accelerate from 0 to speed v in a time interval of Δt. In order to boost sales, a year later they introduced a more powerful engine (the "Model B") which could accelerate the car from 0 to speed 2.92v in the same time interval. Introducing the new engine did not change the mass of the car. Compare the power of the two cars, if we assume all the energy coming from the engine appears as kinetic energy of the car.

Answers

Answer: [tex]\frac{P_B}{P_A}[/tex] = 8.5264

Explanation: Power is the rate of energy transferred per unit of time: P = [tex]\frac{E}{t}[/tex]

The energy from the engine is converted into kinetic energy, which is calculated as: [tex]KE = \frac{1}{2}.m.v^{2}[/tex]

To compare the power of the two cars, first find the Kinetic Energy each one has:

K.E. for Model A

[tex]KE_A = \frac{1}{2}.m.v^{2}[/tex]

K.E. for model B

[tex]KE_B = \frac{1}{2}.m.(2.92v)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]KE_B = \frac{1}{2}.m.8.5264v^{2}[/tex]

Now, determine Power for each model:

Power for model A

[tex]P_{A}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{m.v^{2} }{2.t}[/tex]

Power for model B

[tex]P_B = \frac{m.8.5264.v^{2} }{2.t}[/tex]

Comparing power of model B to power of model A:

[tex]\frac{P_B}{P_A} = \frac{m.8.5264.v^{2} }{2.t}.\frac{2.t}{m.v^{2} }[/tex]

[tex]\frac{P_B}{P_A} =[/tex] 8.5264

Comparing power for each model, power for model B is 8.5264 better than model A.

A man stands on a platform that is rotating (without friction) with an angular speed of 1.2 rev/s; his arms are outstretched and he holds a brick in each hand.The rotational inertia of the system consisting of the man, bricks, and platform about the central vertical axis of the platform is 6.0 k g times m squared. If by moving the bricks the man decreases the rotational inertia of the system to 2.0 k g times m squared, what is the resulting angular speed of the platform in rad/s

Answers

Answer:

resulting angular speed = 3.6 rev/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial angular speed; ω_i = 1.2 rev/s

Initial moment of inertia;I_i = 6 kg/m²

Final moment of inertia;I_f = 2 kg/m²

From conservation of angular momentum;

Initial angular momentum = Final angular momentum

Thus;

I_i × ω_i = I_f × ω_f

Making ω_f the subject, we have;

ω_f = (I_i × ω_i)/I_f

Plugging in the relevant values;

ω_f = (6 × 1.2)/2

ω_f = 3.6 rev/s

Two narrow slits, illuminated by light consisting of two distinct wavelengths, produce two overlapping colored interference patterns on a distant screen. The center of the eighth bright fringe in one pattern coincides with the center of the third bright fringe in the other pattern. What is the ratio of the two wavelengths?

Answers

Answer:

The ration of the two wavelength is  [tex]\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} = \frac{8}{3}[/tex]

Explanation:

Generally two slit constructive interference can be mathematically represented as

      [tex]\frac{y}{L} = \frac{m * \lambda}{d}[/tex]

Where  y is the distance between fringe

           d  is the distance between the two slit

           L is the distance between the slit and the wall

           m is the order of the fringe

given that  y , L  , d  are constant  we have that

     [tex]\frac{m }{\lambda } = constant[/tex]

So  

    [tex]\frac{m_1 }{\lambda_1 } = \frac{m_2 }{\lambda_2 }[/tex]

So     [tex]m_1 = 8[/tex]

  and  [tex]m_2 = 3[/tex]

=>     [tex]\frac{m_2}{m_1} = \frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2}[/tex]

=>     [tex]\frac{8}{3} = \frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2}[/tex]

So

     [tex]\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} = \frac{8}{3}[/tex]

During a particular time interval, the displacement of an object is equal to zero. Must the distance traveled by this object also equal to zero during this time interval? Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer: No, we can have a displacement equal to 0 while the distance traveled is different than zero.

Explanation:

Ok, let's write the definitions:

Displacement: The displacement is equal to the difference between the final position and the initial position.

Distance traveled: Total distance that you moved.

So, for example, if at t = 0s, you are in your house, then you go to the store, and then you return to your house, we have:

The displacement is equal to zero, because the initial position is your house and the final position is also your house, so the displacement is zero.

But the distance traveled is not zero, because you went from you traveled the distance from your house to the store two times.

So no, we can have a displacement equal to zero, but a distance traveled different than zero.

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.

Answers

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]

Answers

Answer:

the final temperature is [tex]\mathbf{T_f = -377.2^0 C}[/tex]

Explanation:

The change in length of a bar can be expressed with the relation;

[tex]\Delta L = L_f - L_i[/tex]   ---- (1)

Also ; the relative or fractional increase in length  is proportional to the change in temperature.

Mathematically;

ΔL/L_i ∝ kΔT

where;

k is replaced with ∝ (the proportionality constant )

[tex]\dfrac{ \Delta L}{L_i}=\alpha \Delta T[/tex]    ---- (2)

From (1) ;

[tex]L_f = \Delta L + L_i[/tex]  ---  (3)

from (2)

[tex]{ \Delta L}=\alpha \Delta T*{L_i}[/tex]  ---- (4)

replacing (4) into (3);we have;

[tex]L_f =(\alpha \Delta T*{L_i} ) + L_i[/tex]

On re-arrangement; we have

[tex]L_f = L_i + \alpha L_i (\Delta T )[/tex]

from the given question; we can say that :

[tex](L_f)_{brass}}} = (L_f)_{Al}[/tex]

So;

[tex]L_{brass} + \alpha _{brass} L_{brass}(\Delta T) = L_{Al} + \alpha _{Al} L_{Al}(\Delta T)[/tex]

Making the change in temperature the subject of the formula; we have:

[tex]\Delta T = \dfrac{L_{Al}-L_{brass}}{\alpha _ {brass} L_{brass}-\alpha _{Al}L_{Al}}[/tex]

where;

[tex]L_{Al}[/tex] = 10.02 cm

[tex]L_{brass}[/tex] = 10.00 cm

[tex]\alpha _{brass}[/tex] = 19 × 10⁻⁶ °C ⁻¹

[tex]\alpha_{Al}[/tex] = 24  × 10⁻⁶ °C ⁻¹

[tex]\Delta T = \dfrac{10.02-10.00}{19*10^{-6} \ \ {^0}C^{-1} *10.00 -24*10^{-6} \ \ {^0}C^{-1} *10.02}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta T[/tex] = −396.1965135 ° C

[tex]\Delta T[/tex] ≅ −396.20  °C

Given that the initial temperature [tex]T_i = 19^0 C[/tex]

Then ;

[tex]\Delta T = T_f - T_i[/tex]

[tex]T_f = \Delta T + T_I[/tex]

Thus;

[tex]T_f =(-396.20 + 19.0)^0 C[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{T_f = -377.2^0 C}[/tex]

Thus; the final temperature is [tex]\mathbf{T_f = -377.2^0 C}[/tex]

A. (1 m, 2 m)
B. (2 m, 1 m)
C. (1 m, 1 m)
D. (1 m, 0.5 m)
E. (0.5 m, 1 m)

Answers

Answer:

D. (1m, 0.5m)

Explanation:

The center of mass (or center of gravity) of a system of particles is the point where the weight acts when the individual particles are replaced by a single particle of equivalent mass. For the three masses, the coordinates of the center of mass C(x, y) is given by;

x = (m₁x₁ + m₂x₂ + m₃x₃) / M       ----------------(i)

y = (m₁y₁ + m₂y₂ + m₃y₃) / M       ----------------(ii)

Where;

M = sum of the masses

m₁ and x₁ = mass and position of first mass in the x direction.

m₂ and x₂ = mass and position of second mass in the x direction.

m₃ and x₃ = mass and position of third mass in the x direction.

y₁ , y₂ and y₃ = positions of the first, second and third masses respectively in the y direction.

From the question;

m₁ = 6kg

m₂ = 4kg

m₃ = 2kg

x₁ = 0m

x₂ = 3m

x₃ = 0m

y₁ = 0m

y₂ = 0m

y₃ = 3m

M = m₁ + m₂ + m₃ = 6 + 4 + 2 = 12kg

Substitute these values into equations (i) and (ii) as follows;

x = ((6x0) + (4x3) + (2x0)) / 12

x = 12 / 12

x = 1 m  

y = (6x0) + (4x0) + (2x3)) / 12

y = 6 / 12

y = 0.5m

Therefore, the center of mass of the system is at (1m, 0.5m)

High voltage power is often carried in wire bundles made up of individual strands. In your initial post to the discussion, discuss the forces on the strands of wire due to the current flowing through them. What would happen if the force acted opposite of the known behavior

Answers

Answer:

More current will be loss through the metal wire strands if the force on them was repulsive, and more stress will be induced on the wire strands due to internal and external flexing.

Explanation:

A wire bundle is made up of wire strands bunched together to increase flexibility that is not always possible in a single solid metal wire conductor. In the strands of wire carrying a high voltage power, each strand carries a certain amount of current, and the current through the strands all travel in the same direction. It is know that for two conductors or wire, separated by a certain distance, that carries current flowing through them in the same direction, an attractive force is produced on these wires, one on the other. This effect is due to the magnetic induction of a current carrying conductor. The forces between these strands of the high voltage wire bundle, pulls the wire strands closer, creating more bond between these wire strands and reducing internal flex induced stresses.

If the case was the opposite, and the wires opposed themselves, the effect would be that a lot of cost will be expended in holding these wire strands together. Also, stress within the strands due to the repulsion, will couple with external stress from the flexing of the wire, resulting in the weakening of the material.

The biggest problem will be that more current will be lost in the wire due to increased surface area caused by the repulsive forces opening spaces between the strand. This loss is a s a result of the 'skin effect' in wire transmission, in which current tends to flow close to the surface of the metal wire. The skin effect generates power loss as heat through the exposed surface area.

Answers

Answer:

a) correct answer is b higher , b) correct answer is b higher , c) correct answer is b faster , d)  traveling wave , e)

Explanation:

A traveling wave is described by the expression

            y = A sin (kx - wt)

where k is the wave vector and w is the angular velocity

 

let's examine every situation presented

a) a new faster pulse is generated

A faster pulse should have a higher angular velocity

equal speed is related to the period and frequency

            w = 2π f = 2π / T

therefore in this case the period must decrease so that the angular velocity increases

the correct answer is c narrower

b) Generate a pulse, but move your hand more.

Moving the hand increases the amplitude (A) of the pulse

the correct answer is b higher

c) generates a pulse but the force is tightened

Set means that more tension force is applied to the string, so the velicate changes

       v = √ (T /μ)

the correct answer is b faster

d) move your hand back and forth

in this case you would see a pulse series whose sum corresponds to a traveling wave

e) Advance a frame the movie

in this case the wave will be displaced a whole period to the right

the correct answer is b

f) move your hand faster

the waves will have a maximum fast, so they are closer

answer C

g) decrease wave frequency

Since the speed of the wave is a constant m ak, decreasing the frequency must increase the wavelength to keep the velocity constant.

the correct answer is b increases its wavelength

When a charge q is placed at a certain point in an electric field, it experiences a force toward the west of magnitude F. If instead a change 2q were placed at that same point what force would it experience?

Answers

Answer:

If instead a charge 2q were placed at that same point the force will be 2F.

Explanation:

The electric force is equal to:

[tex] F = q*E [/tex]    (1)

Where:

F: is the electric force

q: is the charge

E: is the electric field

We can see that in equation (1) the electric force (F) is proportional to the charge q, thus, if now the charge it's the double (2q) then the force will be the double too:    

Initially:

[tex] F_{1} = q_{1}*E [/tex]

Now,

[tex](2q_{1}})*E = 2(q_{1}*E) = 2F_{1}[/tex]  

Therefore, if instead a charge 2q were placed at that same point the force will be 2F.

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

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.

Answers

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

a wall, a 55.6 kg painter is standing on a 3.15 m long homogeneous board that is resting on two saw horses. The board’s mass is 14.5 kg. The saw horse on the right is 1.00 m from the right. How far away can the painter walk from the saw horse on the right until the board begins to tip?

Answers

Answer:

0.15 m

Explanation:

First calculating the center of mass from the saw horse

[tex]\frac{3.15}{2} -1=0.575 m[/tex]

from the free body diagram we can write

Taking moment about the saw horse

55.9×9.81×y=14.5×0.575×9.81

y= 0.15 m

So, the painter walk from the saw horse on the right until the board begins to tip is 0.15 m far.

The barricade at the end of a subway line has a large spring designed to compress 2.00 m when stopping a 1.10 ✕ 105 kg train moving at 0.350 m/s. (a) What is the force constant (in N/m) of the spring? N/m (b) What speed (in m/s) would the train be going if it only compressed the spring 0.600 m? m/s (c) What force (in N) does the spring exert when compressed 0.600 m? 2020 N (in the direction opposite to the train's motion)

Answers

Answer:

(a) k = 1684.38 N/m = 1.684 KN/m

(b) Vi = 0.105 m/s

(c) F = 1010.62 N = 1.01 KN

Explanation:

(a)

First, we find the deceleration of the car. For that purpose we use 3rd equation of motion:

2as = Vf² - Vi²

a = (Vf² - Vi²)/2s

where,

a = deceleration = ?

Vf = final velocity = 0 m/s (since, train finally stops)

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0.35 m/s

s = distance covered by train before stopping = 2 m

Therefore,

a = [(0 m/s)² - (0.35 m/s)²]/(2)(2 m)

a = 0.0306 m/s²

Now, we calculate the force applied on spring by train:

F = ma

F = (1.1 x 10⁵ kg)(0.0306 m/s²)

F = 3368.75 N

Now, for force constant, we use Hooke's Law:

F = kΔx

where,

k = Force Constant = ?

Δx = Compression = 2 m

Therefore.

3368.75 N = k(2 m)

k = (3368.75 N)/(2 m)

k = 1684.38 N/m = 1.684 KN/m

(c)

Applying Hooke's Law with:

Δx  = 0.6 m

F = (1684.38 N/m)(0.6 m)

F = 1010.62 N = 1.01 KN

(b)

Now, the acceleration required for this force is:

F = ma

1010.62 N = (1.1 kg)a

a = 1010.62 N/1.1 x 10⁵ kg

a = 0.0092 m/s²

Now, we find initial velocity of train by using 3rd equation of motion:

2as = Vf² - Vi²

a = (Vf² - Vi²)/2s

where,

a = deceleration = -0.0092 m/s² (negative sign due to deceleration)

Vf = final velocity = 0 m/s (since, train finally stops)

Vi = Initial Velocity = ?

s = distance covered by train before stopping = 0.6 m

Therefore,

-0.0092 m/s² = [(0 m/s)² - Vi²]/(2)(0.6 m)

Vi = √(0.0092 m/s²)(1.2 m)

Vi = 0.105 m/s

A heavy, 6 m long uniform plank has a mass of 30 kg. It is positioned so that 4 m is supported on the deck of a ship and 2 m sticks out over the water. It is held in place only by its own weight. You have a mass of 70 kg and walk the plank past the edge of the ship. How far past the edge do you get before the plank starts to tip, in m

Answers

Answer:

about 1 meter

Explanation:

   

The distance past the edge that the man will get before the plank starts to tip is; 0.4285 m

We are given;

Mass of plank; m = 30 kg

Length of plank; L = 6m

Mass of man; M = 70 kg

Since the plank has 2 supports which are the deck of the ship, then it means that, we can take moments about the right support before the 2m stick out of the plank.

Thus;

Moment of weight of plank about the right support;

τ_p = mg((L/2) - 2)

τ_p = 30 × 9.8((6/2) - 2)

τ_p = 294 N.m

Moment of weight of man about the right support;

τ_m = Mgx

where x is the distance past the edge the man will get before the plank starts to tip.

τ_m = 70 × 9.8x

τ_m = 686x

Now, moment of the board is counterclockwise while that of the man is clockwise. Thus;

τ_m = τ_p

686x = 294

x = 294/686

x = 0.4285 m

Consider two identical springs. At the start of an experiment, Spring A is already stretched out 3 cm, while Spring B remains at the zero position. Both springs are then stretched an additional three centimeters. What conclusion can you draw about the force required to stretch these springs during the experiment

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

In this interesting exercise we have that spring A is 3 cm longer, due to previous experiments if these experiments did not reach the non-linear elongation point, the cosecant Km of the spring must remain the same, therefore when we lengthen the two springs these the longitudinal are lengthened.

As a consequence of the above according to Hockey law, the prediction of lengthening is the same, therefore the outside is the same in two two systems

13. Under what condition (if any) does a moving body experience no energy even though there
is a net force acting on it?
(2 marks)​

Answers

Answer:

When the Net Forces are equal to 0

Explanation:

Momentum of a body can be defined as product of mass and velocity. It is in the same direction as in velocity. When the momentum of a body doesn't change, it is said to be conserved. If the momentum of a body is constant, the the net forces acting on a body becomes zero. When net forces acting on a body is zero, it means that no kinetic energy is being lost or gained, hence the kinetic energy is also conserved. If no energy is being gained or lost, it means that the body will experience no energy.

A box on a ramp is connected by a rope to a winch. The winch is turned so that the box moves down the ramp at a constant speed. The box experiences kinetic friction with the ramp. Which forces on the box do zero work as the box moves down the ramp?

a. Weight (gravitational force)
b. Normal force
c. Kinetic friction force
d. Tension force
e. None

Answers

Answer:

Option B:

The normal force

Explanation:

The normal force does no work as the box slides down the ramp.

Work can only be done when the force succeeds in moving the object in the direction of the force.

All the other forces involved have a component that is moving the box in their direction.

However, the normal force does not, as it points downwards into the ramp. Since the normal force is pointing into the ramp, and the box is sliding down the ramp, we can say that no work is being done by the normal force because the box is not moving in its direction (which would have been the box moving into the ramp)

The Sun's energy comes from which nuclear reaction?

Answers

Answer: Nuclear fusion

Explanation: The sun is a main-sequence star, it generates its energy by nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium.

Sun's energy comes from the nuclear fusion taking place inside. In nuclear fusion two light nuclei fuses together to form a heavy nuclei with the release of greater amount of energy.

What is nuclear fusion :

Nuclear fusion is the process of combining two light nuclei to form a heavy nuclei. In this nuclear process, tremendous energy is released. This is the source of heat and light in stars.

On the other hand, nuclear fission is the process of breaking of a heavy nuclei into two lighter nuclei. Fission also produces massive energy. But in comparison, more energy is produced by nuclear fusion.

Nuclear fission is used in nuclear power generators. The light energy and  heat energy comes form the nuclear fusion of hydrogens to form helium nuclei. Hence, option D is correct.

Answers

Answer:

a. 94.54 N

b. 0.356 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given:-

- The mass of the inclined block, M = 100 kg

- The mass of the vertically hanging block, m = 10 kg

- The angle of inclination, θ = 20°

- The coefficient of friction of inclined surface, u = 0.3

Find:-

a) The magnitude of tension in the cable

b) The acceleration of the system

Solution:-

- We will first draw a free body diagram for both the blocks. The vertically hanging block of mass m = 10 kg tends to move "upward" when the system is released.

- The block experiences a tension force ( T ) in the upward direction due the attached cable. The tension in the cable is combated with the weight of the vertically hanging block.

- We will employ the use of Newton's second law of motion to express the dynamics of the vertically hanging block as follows:

                        [tex]T - m*g = m*a\\\\[/tex]  ... Eq 1

Where,

              a: The acceleration of the system

- Similarly, we will construct a free body diagram for the inclined block of mass M = 100 kg. The Tension ( T ) pulls onto the block; however, the weight of the block is greater and tends down the slope.

- As the block moves down the slope it experiences frictional force ( F ) that acts up the slope due to the contact force ( N ) between the block and the plane.

- We will employ the static equilibrium of the inclined block in the normal direction and we have:

                        [tex]N - M*g*cos ( Q )= 0\\\\N = M*g*cos ( Q )[/tex]

- The frictional force ( F ) is proportional to the contact force ( N ) as follows:

                        [tex]F = u*N\\\\F = u*M*g *cos ( Q )[/tex]

- Now we will apply the Newton's second law of motion parallel to the plane as follows:

                       [tex]M*g*sin(Q) - T - F = M*a\\\\M*g*sin(Q) - T -u*M*g*cos(Q) = M*a\\[/tex] .. Eq2

- Add the two equation, Eq 1 and Eq 2:

                      [tex]M*g*sin ( Q ) - u*M*g*cos ( Q ) - m*g = a* ( M + m )\\\\a = \frac{M*g*sin ( Q ) - u*M*g*cos ( Q ) - m*g}{M + m} \\\\a = \frac{100*9.81*sin ( 20 ) - 0.3*100*9.81*cos ( 20 ) - 10*9.81}{100 + 10}\\\\a = \frac{-39.12977}{110} = -0.35572 \frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]

- The inclined block moves up ( the acceleration is in the opposite direction than assumed ).

- Using equation 1, we determine the tension ( T ) in the cable as follows:

                     [tex]T = m* ( a + g )\\\\T = 10*( -0.35572 + 9.81 )\\\\T = 94.54 N[/tex]

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.

Answers

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.
