While making some observations at the top of the 66 m tall Astronomy tower, Ron
accidently knocks a 0.5 kg stone over the edge. How long will a student at the bottom
have to get out of the way before being hit?

Answers

Answer 1

Analysing the question:

Since the stone was dropped, there was no initial velocity applied on it and hence it's initial velocity of the stone is 0 m/s

We are given:

height of the tower (h) = 66 m

mass of the stone (m) = 0.5 kg

initial velocity of the stone (u) = 0 m/s

time taken by the stone to reach the ground (t) = t seconds

acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

** Neglecting air resistance**

Finding the time taken by the stone to reach the ground:

from the second equation of motion

h = ut + 1/2at²

replacing the variables

66 = (0)(t) + 1/2 (10)(t)²

66 = 5t²

t² = 13.2

t = 3.6 seconds

I initially wanted to subtract the height of the student from the height of the tower since the time i calculated is the time taken by the stone to reach the ground and that means that the stone has already hit the student before 3.6 seconds

but since we were NOT given the height of a student, the person who posed this question wants the time taken by the stone to reach the ground and that is what we solved

What normal force does a horizontal table exert on a 3.5 kg book that sits at rest?

Answers

Answer:

34.3N

Explanation:

The normal force, denoted by F(N), is the force exerted on an object by a surface. The normal force in this case is acting in an opposite manner but equal magnitude to the force of gravity.

F(N) = Fg

Where;

F(N) = Normal force

Fg = gravitational force

Fg = mg

Where;

m = mass (kg)

g = acceleration due to gravity

F(N) = mg

F(N) = 3.5kg × 9.8m/s²

F(N) = 34.3N

Hence, the normal force acting on the object is 34.3N.

A 495-kg dragster accelerates from rest to a final speed of 105 m/s in 395 m, during which it encounters an average frictional force of 1400 N. show answer No Attempt 50% Part (a) What is its average power output of the dragster, in watts, if this takes 8.2 s

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

According to energy conservation which states that the workdone is equal to change in the system

Workdone = change in kinetic energy + (frictional force * distance)

Workdone = ΔK + fd

Workdone = kf-Ki + fd

Workdone = = 1/2(m(v-u)^2) + fd

Given

Mass m = 495kg

final velocity v = 105m/s

initial velocity = 0m/s

Force f= 1400N

distance d = 395m

Substitute

Workdone = 1/2(495(105-0)^2) + 1400(395)

Workdone = 2,728,687.5+553000

Workdone = 3,281,687.5 Joules

Time = 8.2secs

Power output = Workdone/Time

Power output = 3,281,687.5/8.2

Power output = 885,766.768

Power output = 8.858 * 10^5 watts

A man with a mass of 86.5 kg stands up in a 61-kg canoe of length 4.00 m floating on water. He walks from a point 0.75 m from the back of the canoe to a point 0.75 m from the front of the canoe. Assume negligible friction between the canoe and the water. How far does the canoe move?

Answers

Answer:

The displacement of the canoe is 1.46 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of canoe = 61 kg

Mass of man = 86.5 kg

Length = 4 m

Let the the displacement of the canoe is x'

We need to calculate the displacement of the man

Using formula of displacement

[tex]x=x_{2}-x_{1}[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]x=4-(0.75+0.75)[/tex]

[tex]x=2.5\ m[/tex]

We need to calculate the displacement of the canoe

Using conservation of momentum

[tex]M_{m}v_{m}=(M_{c}+M_{m})v_{c}[/tex]

[tex]M_{m}\dfrac{x}{t}=(M_{c}+M_{m})\dfrac{x'}{t}[/tex]

[tex]86.5\times2.5=(61+86.5)\times x'[/tex]

[tex]x'=\dfrac{86.5\times2.5}{61+86.5}[/tex]

[tex]x'=1.46\ m[/tex]

Hence, The displacement of the canoe is 1.46 m

Answers

Answer:

Assuming that 4000 J of heat transfer occurs from it the change in entropy will be=2.33j/k

Explanation:

Given data

Th=619 K

Tc= 455K

We are going to assume that 4000 J of heat transfer occurs from it, since it was not specified in the question.

we know that the change in entropy is given as

ΔStotal=ΔShot+ΔScold .

ΔShot=−Q/Th=−4000J/619K=−6.46J/K

For the cold reservoir,

ΔScold=Q/Tc=4000J/455K=8.79J/K

therefore  the total is

ΔStotal=ΔShot+ΔScold

=(−6.46+8.79)J/K

=2.33j/k

Using the standard convention "positive is up", what is the sign of the acceleration of a rock you throw up (a) as it is going up, and (b) as it is coming back down?

Answers

Answer:

(a) Negative

               (b) B = 1.94 x 10⁻⁵T

               (c) B = 1.8 x 10⁻⁴T

Explanation: A magnetic field due to a current passing through a straight wire is calculated using the Biot-Savart Law:

[tex]dB=\frac{\mu_{0}}{4.\pi} \frac{IdLXR}{r^{3}}[/tex]

where

dL is current length element

[tex]\mu_{0}[/tex] is permeability of free space ([tex]4.\pi.10^{-7}[/tex]T.m/A)

(a) For a infinite straight wire:

[tex]B=\frac{\mu_{0}I}{2.\pi.R}[/tex]

[tex]B=\frac{4.\pi.10^{-7}.2}{2.\pi.2.10^{-2}}[/tex]

B = 2x10⁻⁵T

For an infinite, long and straight wire, magnetic field is 2x10⁻⁵T.

(b) For a finite wire:

[tex]B=\frac{\mu_{0}I}{2.\pi.R}\frac{L}{\sqrt{L^{2}+R^{2}} }[/tex]

[tex]B=\frac{4.\pi.10^{-7}.2}{2.\pi.2.10^{-2}} \frac{8.10^{-2}}{\sqrt{(8.10^{-2})^{2}+(2.10^{-2})^{2}} }[/tex]

B = 1.94x10⁻⁵T

The magnetic field for a finite wire in the same conditionsas infinite wire is 1.94x10⁻⁵T.

(c) For a finite wire at a point distant from the end of the wire:

[tex]B=\frac{\mu_{0}I}{4.\pi.L\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

[tex]B=\frac{4.\pi.10^{-7}.2}{4.\pi.8.10^{-2}\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

as a result, the net electric force experienced by each negatively charged particle is reduced to F/2. The value of q is

Answers

Answer:

The value of q is [tex]\dfrac{Q}{8}[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

Each charge = -Q

Distance between charges = L

Reduced force = [tex]\dfrac{F}{2}[/tex]

Suppose, Two particles each with a charge -Q are fixed a distance L apart as shown above. Each particle experiences a net electric force F. A particle with a charge +q is now fixed midway between the original two particles.

We know that,

The force on each end is

[tex]F=\dfrac{kQ^2}{L^2}[/tex]...(I)

If the charge q is placed at mid point then

The  force on each end charge is

[tex]\dfrac{F}{2}=F+F'[/tex]....(II)

We need to calculate the value of q

Using equation (II)

[tex]\dfrac{F}{2}=F+F'[/tex]

Put the value of F into the formula

[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{kQ^2}{L^2}}{2}=k\dfrac{Q^2}{L^2}+k\dfrac{q\times(-Q)}{(\dfrac{L}{2})^2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{kq(-Q)}{(\dfrac{L}{2})^2}=-\dfrac{kQ^2}{2L^2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{q}{\dfrac{1}{4}}=\dfrac{Q}{2}[/tex]

[tex]q=\dfrac{Q}{8}[/tex]

Hence, The value of q is [tex]\dfrac{Q}{8}[/tex]

Given that water at standard pressure freezes at 0∘C, which corresponds to 32∘F, and that it boils at 100∘C, which corresponds to 212∘F, calculate the temperature difference ΔT in degrees Fahrenheit that corresponds to a temperature difference of 1 K on the Kelvin scale. Give your answer to two significant figures.

Answers

Answer:

In two significant figure 360K

Explanation:

The temperature difference (ΔT) can be calculated as the boiling temperature minus the freezing temperature in Fahrenheit.

Hence,

ΔT = 212 - 32

ΔT = 180°F

To convert to °F to kelvin, we use the formula below

= (°F - 32) × 5/9 + 273.15

= (180°F - 32) × 5/9 + 273.15

= 355.37K ⇔ 360K

Goal posts at the ends of football fields are padded as a

to players?

It would be awesome if you could use a sample response

Answers

Goal posts at the end of football field are padded as a safety measure to players who might run into them,these thick paddings of the goal posts are done to prevent injuries to the players because the padding of the goal post increases the time of impact and this in-turn decreases the force on the the players body or the force it will have when a player's body hit against it and therefore decreasing the force applied to bring the player to a stop.

We can also say that it increases the time of collision between the player's body and the post.

If a sound with frequency fs is produced by a source traveling along a line with speed vs. If an observer is traveling with speed vo along the same line from the opposite direction toward the source, then the frequency of the sound heard by the observer is fo = c + vo c − vs fs where c is the speed of sound, about 332 m/s. (This is the Doppler effect.) Suppose that, at a particular moment, you are in a train traveling at 45 m/s and accelerating at 1.1 m/s2. A train is approaching you from the opposite direction on the other track at 46 m/s, accelerating at 1.6 m/s2, and sounds its whistle, which has a frequency of 459 Hz. At that instant, what is the perceived frequency that you hear? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) Hz How fast is it changing? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) Hz/s

Answers

Answer:

457.81 Hz

Explanation:

From the question, it is stated that it is a question under Doppler effect.

As a result, we use this form

fo = (c + vo) / (c - vs) × fs

fo = observed frequency by observer =?

c = speed of sound = 332 m/s

vo = velocity of observer relative to source = 45 m/s

vs = velocity of source relative to observer = - 46 m/s ( it is taking a negative sign because the velocity of the source is in opposite direction to the observer).

fs = frequency of sound wave by source = 459 Hz

By substituting the the values to the equation, we have

fo = (332 + 45) / (332 - (-46)) × 459

fo = (377/ 332 + 46) × 459

fo = (377/ 378) × 459

fo = 0.9974 × 459

fo = 457.81 Hz

The optimal conditions for high biodiversity seem to be a warm temperature and wet climates.

The tropical areas of the world have the highest biodiversity and are characterized by an average annual temperature of above 18 [tex]^oC[/tex] and annual precipitation of 262 cm. The areas are referred to as the world's biodiversity hotspots.

Consequently, it follows logically that the optimal conditions for high biodiversity would be a warm temperature of above 18 [tex]^oC[/tex] and wet environment with annual precipitation of not less than 262 cm.

The variation in temperature and precipitation across biomes can thus be said to be responsible for the variation in the level of biodiversity in them.

Complete question is;

Jason works for a moving company. A 75 kg wooden crate is sitting on the wooden ramp of his truck; the ramp is angled at 11°.

What is the magnitude of the force, directed parallel to the ramp, that he needs to exert on the crate to get it to start moving UP the ramp?

Answer:

F = 501.5 N

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of wooden crate; m = 75 kg

Angle of ramp; θ = 11°

Now, for the wooden crate to slide upwards, it means that the force of friction would be acting in an opposite to the slide along the inclined plane. Thus, the force will be given by;

F = mgsin θ + μmg cos θ

From online values, coefficient of friction between wooden surfaces is μ = 0.5

Thus;

F = (75 × 9.81 × sin 11) + (0.5 × 75 × 9.81 × cos 11)

F = 501.5 N
