The New England Merchants Bank Building in Boston is 152 m high. On windy days it sways with a frequency of 0.17 Hz, and the acceleration of the top of the building can reach 2.0% of the free-fall acceleration, enough to cause discomfort for occupants. What is the total distance, side to side, that the top of the building moves during such an oscillation?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d = 8.4 cm

Explanation:

In order to calculate the amplitude of oscillation of the top of the building, you use the following formula for the max acceleration of as simple harmonic motion:

[tex]a_{max}=A\omega^2[/tex]           (1)

A: amplitude of the oscillation

w: angular speed of the oscillation = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]f

f: frequency = 0.17Hz

The maximum acceleration of the top of the building is a 2.0% of the free-fall acceleration. Then, you have:

[tex]a_{max}=0.02(9.8m/s^2)=0.196\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]

Then, you solve for A in the equation (1) and replace the values of the parameters:

[tex]A=\frac{a_{max}}{\omega^2}=\frac{a_{max}}{4\p^2i f^2}\\\\A=\frac{0.196m/s^2}{16\pi^2(0.17Hz)^2}\\\\A=0.042m=4.2cm[/tex]

The total distance, side to side, of the oscilation of the top of the building is twice the amplitude A. Then you obtain:

d = 2A = 2(4.2cm) = 8.4cm

Answer 2

The total  side to side distance at the top of the building, covered during such an oscillation is 8.4 cm.

Given data:

The height of building is, h = 152 m.

The frequency on windy days is, f = 0.17 Hz.

The acceleration on the top of building is, a = 2/100g (Here g is gravitational acceleration).

This problem can be resolved using the concept of amplitude and angular frequency. The expression for the magnitude of acceleration at the top pf building is given as,

[tex]a = A \times \omega^{2}\\\\a = A \times (2 \pi f)^{2}\\\\\dfrac{2}{100} \times g=A \times (2 \pi \times 0.17)^{2}\\\\\dfrac{2}{100} \times 9.8=A \times (2 \pi \times 0.17)^{2}\\\\A =0.042 \;\rm m[/tex]

And, the total distance, side to side, of the oscillation of the top of the building is twice the amplitude A. Then,

]s = 2A

s = 2 (0.042)

s = 0.084 m

s = 8.4 cm

Thus, we can conclude that the total  side to side distance at the top of the building, covered during such an oscillation is 8.4 cm.

A person is riding on a Ferris wheel of radius R. He starts at the lowest point of the wheel. When the wheel makes one complete revolution, is the net work done by the gravitational force positive, zero or negative? Do you need to know how the speed of the person changed before you can answer the question?

Answers

Answering the two questions in reverse order:

-- No. I don't need to know how the speed of the person changed before I can answer the question.  I can answer it now.

-- The NET work done by the gravitational force is zero.

-- As the person and his girl-friend go up the first half of the wheel, the motor does positive work and gravity does negative work.

-- After they pass the peak at the top and come down the second half of the wheel, the motor does negative work and gravity does positive work, even though the couple may be interested in other things during that time.

-- The total work done by gravity in one complete revolution is zero.

-- The total work done by the motor in one complete revolution is only what it takes to pay back the energy robbed by friction and air resistance.

The work done by the gravitational force is zero.

Work Done:

Work done by a conservative force is path independent. Which means it only depends on the initial and final position of the body. The gravitational force is a conservational force and the gravitational potential energy depends only upon the height of the body.

Let the lowest point of the body is at some height h, then the initial gravitational potential energy of the person is:

PE(initial) = mgh

The final position of the person is also at a height h, thus, the final gravitational potential energy :

PE(final) = mgh

According to the work-energy theorem:

work done = - change in potential energy

work done = -(mgh - mgh) = 0

Thus, the work done is zero in the given case.

lens is to be used to allow this eye to clearly focus on objects 25 cm in front of it. What should be the focal length of this lens

Answers

Question:

The nearpoint of an eye is 151 cm. A corrective lens is to be used to allow this eye to clearly focus on objects 25 cm in front of it. What should be the focal length of this lens?

Answer:

29.96cm

Explanation:

Using the corrective lens, the image should be formed at the front of the eye and be upright and virtual.

Now using the lens equation as follows;

[tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u}[/tex]   -------------(i)

Where;

f = focal length of the lens

v = image distance as seen by the lens

u = object distance from the lens

From the question;

v = -151cm        [-ve since the image formed is virtual]

u = 25cm

Rewrite equation (i) to have;

[tex]f = \frac{uv}{u+v}[/tex]

Substitute the values of v and u into the equation;

[tex]f = \frac{25*(-151)}{25-151}[/tex]

[tex]f = \frac{-3775}{-126}[/tex]

f = 29.96cm

Rice has a bulk of 0.9 g/mL, but an individual grain of rice has a density of 1.1g/mL. Water has a density of 1.0g/mL. what would happen to a cup of rice when poured into a lot of water?

Answers

Since the grains are not connected together, it's every grain for himself when they're dropped into the water.

The density of each grain is greater than the density of water, so each grain on its own sinks to the bottom.

The reason why a CUP or a BAG of rice has less density is because the grains don't all fit together perfectly, and 15% or 20% of the volume in the cup or bag is air, not rice grains.

If you were to experimentally determine the length of the pendulum, why would you not get the same length in Iowa?

Answers

Answer:

The length of the pendulum depends on acceleration due to gravity (g) which varies in different Earth's location beacuse Earth is not perfectly spherical.

Explanation:

The period of oscillation is calculated as;

[tex]T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }[/tex]

where;

L is the length of the pendulum bob

g is acceleration due to gravity

If we make L the subject of the formula in the equation above, we will have;

[tex]T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}\\\\\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} } = \frac{T}{2\pi} \\\\\frac{l}{g} = (\frac{T}{2\pi} \)^2\\\\\frac{l}{g} =\frac{T^2}{4\pi^2}\\\\L = \frac{gT^2}{4\pi^2}[/tex]

The length of the pendulum depends on acceleration due to gravity (g).

Acceleration due to gravity is often assumed to be the same everywhere on Earth, but it varies because Earth is not perfectly spherical. The variation of acceleration due to gravity (g) as a result of Earth's geometry, will also cause the length of the pendulum to vary.

Diameter of Newton’s 15th ring = 0.62 cm

Diameter of Newton’s 25th ring = ?

From Newton’s rings experiment we infer that

D2n+m − D2n = 4λmR

D225 = 2D215 – D25

Substituting the values into the equation

D225 = 2 * 0.62 * 0.62 – 0.3 * 0.3 =0.6788 cm2

If a diver below the water's surface shines a light up at the bottom of the oil film, at what wavelength (as measured in water) would there be constructive interference in the light that reflects back downward

Answers

Answer:

see that the entire spectrum of the visible is between the integers from 3 to 5 so only three wavelengths are reflected with constructive interference

Explanation:

This is an interference problem in thin films, the refractive index of water is 1.33 and the refractive index of oil is 1.5

Let's analyze the light beam path emitted by the diver.

* when the beam passes from the water to the oil with the highest refractive index, it has a phase change of 180º

* also the wavelength of light in a material medium changes

      λ_n =  λ / n

where  λ_n is the wavelength in the material and  λ the wavelength in the vacuum air and n the refractive index.

If we include these aspects, the constructive interference equation is

       2t = (m + ½)  λ_n

       2nt = (m + ½)  λ

let's apply this equation to our case

            λ = 2nt / (m + ½)

The incidence of replacement of the oil with respect to water is

        n = n_oil / n_water = 1.5 / 1.33

        n = 1,128

       

let's calculate

        λ = 2 1,128 t / (m + ½)

        λ = 2,256 t / (m + ½)

In your statement you do not include the value of the oil layer that is the thin film, suppose a value to finish the calculation

          t = 0.001 mm = 1 10⁻⁶ m

the formula remains

        λ = 2,256 10⁻⁶ / (m + ½)

Let's find what values ​​of m we have to cut light in the visible range (400 to 700) 10⁻⁹ m

     m + ½ = 2,256 10⁻⁶ / λ

     m = 2,256 10⁻⁶ / λ - ½

light purple lan = 400 10⁻⁹m

     m = 2,256 10-6 / 400 10⁻⁹ - ½

     m = 5.64 - 0.5

     m = 5.14

     m = 5

red light  λ = 700 10⁻⁹m

      m = 2,256 1-6 / 700 10⁻⁹ - ½

      m = 3.22 - 0.5

      m = 2.72

Answers

Answer:

187,500N/m

Explanation:

From the question, the kinectic energy of the train will be equal to the energy stored in the spring.

Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv² and energy stored in a spring E = 1/2 ke².

Equating both we will have;

1/2 mv² = 1/2ke²

mv² = ke²

m is the mass of the train

v is the velocity of then train

k is the spring constant

e is the extension caused by the spring.

Given m = 30000kg, v = 4 m/s, e = 4 - 2.4 = 1.6m

Substituting this values into the formula will give;

30000*4² =  k*1.6²

Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

P₃₅₀ = 0.28 watt

Explanation:

First we find the resistance of the wire at 20°C:

R₀ = ρL/A

where,

ρ = resistivity = 1 x 10⁻⁶ Ωm

L = Length of wire = 100 cm = 1 m

A = cross-sectional area of wire = πr² = π(0.5 x 10⁻³ m)² = 0.785 x 10⁻⁶ m²

Therefore,

R₀ = (1 x 10⁻⁶ Ωm)(1 m)/(0.785 x 10⁻⁶ m²)

R₀ = 1.27 Ω

Now, from Ohm's Law:

V = I₀R₀

where,

V = Potential Difference = ?

I₀ = Current Passing at 20°C = 0.5 A

Therefore,

V = (0.5 A)(1.27 Ω)

V = 0.64 volts

Now, we need to find the resistance at 350°C:

R₃₅₀ = R₀(1 + αΔT)

where,

R₃₅₀ = Resistance at 350°C = ?

α = temperature coefficient of resistance = 0.4 x 10⁻³ °C⁻¹

ΔT = Difference in Temperature = 350°C - 20°C = 330°C

Therefore,

R₃₅₀ = (1.27 Ω)[1 + (0.4 x 10⁻³ °C⁻¹)(330°C)]

R₃₅₀ = 1.44 Ω

Now, for power at 350°C:

P₃₅₀ = VI₃₅₀

where,

P₃₅₀ = Power dissipation at 350°C = ?

V = constant potential difference = 0.64 volts

I₃₅₀ = Current at 350°C = V/R₃₅₀ (From Ohm's Law)

Therefore,

P₃₅₀ = V²/R₃₅₉

P₃₅₀ = (0.64 volts)²/(1.44 Ω)

P₃₅₀ = 0.28 watt

How would a spinning disk's kinetic energy change if its moment of inertia was five times larger but its angular speed was five times smaller

Answers

Answer:

The kinetic energy of a spinning disk will be reduced to a tenth of its initial kinetic energy if its moment of inertia is made five times larger, but its angular speed is made five times smaller.

Explanation:

Let us first consider the initial characteristics of the angular motion of the disk

moment of inertia = [tex]I[/tex]

angular speed = ω

For the second case, we consider the characteristics to now be

moment of inertia = [tex]5I[/tex]  (five times larger)

angular speed = ω/5  (five times smaller)

Recall that the kinetic energy of a spinning body is given as

[tex]KE = \frac{1}{2}Iw^{2}[/tex]

therefore,

for the first case, the K.E. is given as

[tex]KE = \frac{1}{2}Iw^{2}[/tex]

and for the second case, the K.E. is given as

[tex]KE = \frac{1}{2}(5I)(\frac{w}{5} )^{2} = \frac{5}{50}Iw^{2}[/tex]

[tex]KE = \frac{1}{10}Iw^{2}[/tex]

this is one-tenth the kinetic energy before its spinning characteristics were changed.

This implies that the kinetic energy of the spinning disk will be reduced to a tenth of its initial kinetic energy if its moment of inertia is made five times larger, but its angular speed is made five times smaller.

A spinning disk's kinetic energy will change to one-tenth if its moment of inertia was five times larger but its angular speed was five times smaller.

Relation between Kinetic energy and Moment of Inertia:

Rotational kinetic energy is directly proportional to the rotational inertia and the square of the magnitude of the angular velocity.

Now, let's consider moment of inertia =  I  and angular speed = ω

It is asked that what would be change in Kinetic energy if

moment of inertia =   (five times larger)

angular speed = ω/5  (five times smaller)

The kinetic energy of a spinning body is given as:

[tex]K.E.=\frac{1}{2} I. w^2[/tex]

On substituting the values, we will get:

[tex]K.E.= \frac{1}{2} (5I) (\frac{w}{5} )^2 \\\\K.E. =\frac{1}{10} I. w^2[/tex]

Kinetic energy will be one-tenth to the kinetic energy before its spinning characteristics were changed.

A ball is shot at an angle of 45 degrees into the air with initial velocity of 46 ft/sec. Assuming no air resistance, how high does it go

Answers

Answer:

5.02 m

Explanation:

Applying the formula of maximum height of a projectile,

H = U²sin²Ф/2g...................... Equation 1

Where H = maximum height, U = initial velocity, Ф = angle, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: U = 46 ft/sec = 14.021 m/s, Ф = 45°

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

H = (14.021)²sin²45/(2×9.8)

H = 196.5884×0.5/19.6

H = 5.02 m.

Hence the ball goes 5.02 m high

The ball reaches the maximum height of 54 feet

The question is about projectile motion,

the ball is shot at an angle α = 45°, and

the initial velocity u = 46 ft/s.

Under the projectile motion, the maximum height H is given by:

[tex]H=\frac{u^2sin^2\alpha }{2g} [/tex]

where, g = 9.8 m/s²

substituting the given values we get:

[tex]H=\frac{46^2sin^{2}(45)}{2*9.8}\\ \\ H=\frac{46*46*(1/2)}{2*9.8}\\ \\ H=54 feet[/tex]

Hence, the maximum height is 54 feet.

At a playground, two young children are on identical swings. One child appears to be about twice as heavy as the other. Part A If you pull them back together the same distance and release them to start them swinging, what will you notice about the oscillations of the two children

Answers

Answer:

The motion of the lighter child would look faster than that of the heavier child, but both have the same period of oscillation.

Explanation:

Oscillation is a type of simple harmonic motion which involves the to and fro movement of an object. The oscillation takes place at a required time called the period of oscillation.

Since the swings are similar, the period of oscillation of the two children are the same and they would complete one oscillation in the same time. Though the oscillation of the lighter child seems faster than that of the heavy child, their masses does not affect the period of oscillation.

When a heavy object oscillates, its mass increases the drag or damping force, but not the period of oscillation. Thus, it oscillate slowly.

b) Pmax = 10.65 kW

c) E = 5.47 MJ

Explanation:

Mass of the loaded car, m = 950 kg

Angle of inclination of the shaft, θ = 28°

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The speed of the car, v = 2.35 m/s

Change in time, t = 14.0 s

a) The power that must be provided by the winch motor when the car is moving at constant speed.

P = Fv

The force exerted by the motor, F = mg sinθ

P = mgv sinθ

P = 950 * 9.8 *2.35* sin28°

P = 10,271.3 W

P = 10.27 kW

b) Maximum power that the motor must provide:

[tex]P = mv\frac{dv}{dt} + mgvsin \theta\\dv/dt = \frac{2.35 - 0}{14} \\dv/dt = 0.168 m/s^2\\P = (950*2.35*0.168) + (950*9.8*2.35* sin28)\\P = 374.74 + 10271.3\\P = 10646.04 W\\10.65 kW[/tex]

The tube should be held vertically, perpendicular to the ground.

Explanation:

As the power lines  of ground are equal, so its electrical field is perpendicular to the ground and the equipotential surface is cylindrical. Therefore, if we put the position fluorescent tube parallel to the ground so the both ends of the tube lie on the same equipotential surface and the difference is zero when its  potential.

And the ends of the tube must be on separate equipotential surfaces to optimize potential. The surface near the power line has a greater potential value and the surface farther from the line has a lower potential value, so the tube must be placed perpendicular to the floor to maximize the potential difference.

In an RC circuit, how many time constants must elapse if an initially uncharged capacitor is to reach 80% of its final potential difference

Answers

Answer:

1.6 time constants must elapse

Explanation:

voltage on a cap, charging is given as

v = v₀[1–e^(–t/τ)]

Where R is resistance in ohms,

C is capacitance in farads

t is time in seconds

RC = τ = time constant

v = v₀[1–e^(–t/τ)]

1–e^(–t/τ) = 0.8

e^(–t/τ) = 0.2

–t/τ = –1.609

t = 1.609τ

Although electromagnetic waves can always be represented as either photons or waves, in the radio part of the spectrum we typically do not discuss photons (like we do in the visible) because they are at such a low energy. Nevertheless. they exist. Consider such a photon in a radio wave from an AM station has a 1545 kHz broadcast frequency.

b. What is the energy, in electron volts. of the photon?

Answers

Answer:

a.     E = 1.02*10^-27 J

b.     E = 6.39*10^-9eV

Explanation:

a. In order to calculate the energy of the radio photon, you use the following formula:

[tex]E=hf[/tex]             (1)

h: Planck's constant = 6.626*10^-34 Js

f: frequency of the photon = 1545kHz = 1.545*10^6 Hz

A student stretches an elastic band by 0.8 m in 0.5 seconds. The spring constant of the elastic band is 40 N/m. What was the power exerted by the student

Answers

Answer:

The power exerted by the student is 51.2 W

Explanation:

Given;

extension of the elastic band, x = 0.8 m

time taken to stretch this distance, t = 0.5 seconds

the spring constant, k = 40 N/m

Apply Hook's law;

F = kx

where;

F is the force applied to the elastic band

k is the spring constant

x is the extension of the elastic band

F = 40 x 0.8

F = 32 N

The power exerted by the student is calculated as;

P = Fv

where;

F is the applied force

v is velocity = d/t

P = F x (d/t)

P = 32 x (0.8 /0.5)

P = 32 x 1.6

P = 51.2 W

Therefore, the power exerted by the student is 51.2 W

Find the period of revolution for the planet Mercury, whose average distance from the Sun is 5.79 x 1010 m.

Answers

Answer:

T = 7.61*10^6 s

Explanation:

In order to calculate the Mercury's period. in its orbit around the sun, you take into account on the Kepler's law. You use the following formula:

[tex]T=\sqrt{\frac{4\pi^2r^3}{GM_s}}[/tex]         (1)

T: period of Mercury

r: distance between Mercury and Sun

Ms: mass of the sun = 1.98*10^30 kg

G: Cavendish's constant = 6.674*10^-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

[tex]T=\sqrt{\frac{4\pi^2(5.79*10^{10}m)^3}{(6.674*10^{-11}m^3kg^{-1}s^{-2})(1.98*10^{30}kg)}}\\\\T=7.61*10^6s*\frac{1h}{3600s}*\frac{1d}{24h}=88.13\ days[/tex]

The period of Mercury is 7.61*10^6 s, which is approximately 88.13 Earth's days

You are trying to overhear a juicy conversation, but from your distance of 20.0 m, it sounds like only an average whisper of 20.0 dB. So you decide to move closer to give the conversation a sound level of 70.0 dB instead. How close should you come?

Answers

Given that,

Distance = 20.0 m

Average whisper = 20.0 dB

Sound level = 70.0 dB

We know that,

The minimum intensity is

[tex]I_{o}=10^{-12}\ W/m^2[/tex]

We need to calculate the sound intensity in the distance of 20 m

Using formula of sound intensity

[tex]dB=10\log(\dfrac{I_{a}}{I_{o}})[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]20=10\log(\dfrac{I_{a}}{10^{-12}})[/tex]

[tex]10^{2}=\dfrac{I_{a}}{10^{-12}}[/tex]

[tex]I_{a}=10^{-10}\ W/m^2[/tex]

If the conversation a sound level of 70.0 dB instead

We need to calculate the sound intensity

Using formula of sound intensity

[tex]dB=10\log(\dfrac{I_{b}}{I_{o}})[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]70=10\log(\dfrac{I_{a}}{10^{-12}})[/tex]

[tex]10^{7}=\dfrac{I_{b}}{10^{-12}}[/tex]

[tex]I_{b}=10^{-5}\ W/m^2[/tex]

We know that,

The intensity is inversely proportional with the square of the distance.

We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of intensity

[tex]\dfrac{I_{a}}{I_{b}}=\dfrac{R_{b}^2}{R_{a}^2}[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]\dfrac{10^{-10}}{10^{-5}}=\dfrac{R_{b}^2}{20^2}[/tex]

[tex]R_{b}^2=20^2\times\dfrac{10^{-10}}{10^{-5}}[/tex]

[tex]R_{b}=\sqrt{20^2\times\dfrac{10^{-10}}{10^{-5}}}[/tex]

[tex]R_{b}=0.063\ m[/tex]

Hence, The distance from the conversation should be 0.063 m.

The distance you should move to achieve a loudness of 70 dB is; 0.0633 m

We are given;

Average distance 1; R_1 = 20 m

Average whisper 1; dB1 = 20 dB

Average whisper 2; dB2 = 70 dB

Now, the formula for loudness in dB is;

dB = 10log(I/I_o)

Where;

I is the intensity of the sound

I_o is the minimum intensity that a human ear can detect = 10^(-12) W/m²

Thus, for dB1 = 20 dB;

20 = 10log (I/10^(-12))

20/10 = log (I/10^(-12))

log (I/10^(-12)) = 2

10² = (I/10^(-12))

I = 10² × 10^(-12)

I_1 = 10^(-10) W/m²

Similarly, for dB2 = 70 dB;

70 = 10log (I/10^(-12))

70/10 = log (I/10^(-12))

log (I/10^(-12)) = 7

10^(7) = (I/10^(-12))

I = 10^(7) × 10^(-12)

I_2 = 10^(-5) W/m²

The relationship between their intensities and distance is;

I_1/I_2 = (R_2/R_1)²

Where R_2 is the distance you should move to achieve a loudness of 70 dB.

Thus;

(10^(-10))/(10^(-5)) = R_2/20

(R_2)/20 = √(10^(-5))

(R_2)/20 = 0.00316227766

R_2 = 20 × 0.00316227766

R_2 = 0.0632 m

two 200 pound lead balls are separated by a distance 1m. both balls have the same positive charge q. what charge will produce an electrostatic force.between the balls that is of the same order of magnitude as the weight of one ball?

Answers

Answer:

The  charge is  [tex]q = 3.14 *10^{-4} \ C[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The mass of each ball is  [tex]m = 200 \ lb = \frac{200}{2.205} = 90.70 \ kg[/tex]

       The distance of separation is  [tex]d = 1 \ m[/tex]

Generally the weight of the each ball is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]W = m * g[/tex]

where g is the acceleration due to gravity with a value [tex]g = 9.8 m/s^2[/tex]

substituting values

      [tex]W = 90.70 * 9.8[/tex]

      [tex]W = 889 \ N[/tex]

Generally  the electrostatic force between this balls is mathematically represented as

         [tex]F_e = \frac{k * q_1* q_2 }{d^2}[/tex]

given that the the charges are equal we have

    [tex]q_1= q_2 = q[/tex]

So

         [tex]F_e = \frac{k * q^2 }{d^2}[/tex]

Now from the question we are told to find the charge when the weight of one  ball is equal to the electrostatic force

So  we have

       [tex]889 = \frac{9*10^9 * q^2}{1^2}[/tex]

   =>   [tex]q = 3.14 *10^{-4} \ C[/tex]

       

The magnitude of charge on the balls is [tex]3.14 \times 10^{-4} \;\rm C[/tex].

Given data:

The masses of two lead balls are, m = 200 lb = 200/2.205 = 90.70 kg.

The distance of separation of two balls is, d = 1 m.

First of all we need to obtain the weight of ball. The weight of the ball is expressed as,

W = mg

Here,

g is the gravitational acceleration.

Solving as,

W = 90.70 × 9.8

W = 888.86 N

The expression for the electrostatic force between this balls is mathematically represented as,

[tex]F = \dfrac{k \times q_{1} \times q_{2}}{d^{2}}[/tex]

Since, the charges are equal then,

[tex]q_{1} =q_{2}=q[/tex]

Also, the magnitude of force between the balls is same as the weight of one ball. Then,

F = W

Solving as,

[tex]F =W= \dfrac{(9 \times 10^{9}) \times q^{2}}{1^{2}}\\\\889= \dfrac{(9 \times 10^{9}) \times q^{2}}{1^{2}}\\\\q = 3.14 \times 10^{-4} \;\rm C[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of charge on the balls is [tex]3.14 \times 10^{-4} \;\rm C[/tex].

The two arms of a U-tube are not identical, one having 2.5 times the diameter of the other. A cork in the narrow arm requires a force of 16 N to remove it. The tube is filled with water and the wide arm is fitted with a piston. The minimum force that must be applied to the piston to push the cork out is:

Answers

Answer:

F₁ = 100 N

Explanation:

The pressure must be equally transmitted from the piston to the narrow arm. Therefore,

P₁ = P₂

F₁/A₁ = F₂/A₂

F₁/F₂ = A₁/A₂

where,

F₁ = Force Required to be applied to piston = ?

F₂ = Force to push cork at narrow arm = 16 N

A₁ = Area of wider arm = πd₁²/4

A₂ = Area of narrow arm = πd₂²/4

Therefore,

F₁/16 N = (πd₁²/4)/(πd₂²/4)

F₁ = (16 N)(d₁²/d₂²)

but, it is given that the diameter of wider arm is 2.5 times the diameter of the narrow arm.

d₁ = 2.5 d₂

Therefore,

F₁ = (16 N)[(2.5 d₂)²/d₂²]

F₁ = (16 N)(6.25)

F₁ = 100 N
