Complete Question
A 0.025-kg block on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to an ideal massless spring whose spring constant is 150 N/m. The block is pulled from its equilibrium position at x = 0.00 m to a displacement x = +0.080 m and is released from rest. The block then executes simple harmonic motion along the horizontal x-axis. When the displacement is x = 0.024 m, what is the kinetic energy of the block?
Answer:
The kinetic energy is [tex]KE = 0.4368\ J[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the block is [tex]m= 0.025\ kg[/tex]
The spring constant is [tex]k = 150 N/m[/tex]
The length of first displacement is [tex]x_1 = 0.80 \ m[/tex]
The length of first displacement is [tex]x_2 = 0.024 \ m[/tex]
At the [tex]x_2[/tex] the kinetic energy is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]KE = \Delta E[/tex]
Where [tex]\Delta E[/tex] is the change in energy stored on the spring which is mathematically represented as
[tex]\Delta E = \frac{1}{2} k (x_1 ^2 - x_2^2)[/tex]
=> [tex]KE = \frac{1}{2} k (x_1 ^2 - x_2^2)[/tex]
Substituting value
[tex]KE = \frac{1}{2} * 150 * (0.08^2 - 0.024^2)[/tex]
[tex]KE = 0.4368\ J[/tex]

You are designing an optical fiber scope for directing light into a confined area. You want to keep light within the fiber. Based on the specifications, you know that the greatest angle that the light will make with the horizontal is no greater than 25⁰. Assuming you will be using the scope in the body which has the same index of refraction of water (n = 1.33). What is the minimum index of refraction n2 required for the design to be functional?
Answer:
Explanation:
For entry of light into tube of unknown refractive index
sin ( 90 - 25 ) / sinr = μ , μ is the refractive index of the tube , r is angle of refraction in the medium of tube
r = 90 - C where C is critical angle between μ and body medium in which tube will be inserted.
sin ( 90 - 25 ) / sin( 90 - C) = μ
sin65 / cos C = μ
sinC = 1.33 / μ , where 1.33 is the refractive index of body liquid.
From these equations
sin65 / cos C = 1.33 / sinC
TanC = 1.33 / sin65
TanC = 1.33 / .9063
TanC = 1.4675
C= 56°
sinC = 1.33 / μ
μ = 1.33 / sinC
= 1.33 / sin56
= 1.33 / .829
μ = 1.6 Ans
Derive the equation relating the total charge Q that flows through a search coil (Conceptual Example 29.3) to the magnetic-field magnitude B. The search coil has N turns, each with area A, and the flux through the coil is decreased from its initial maximum value to zero in a time Δt. The resistance of the coil is R, and the total charge is Q=IΔt, where I is the average current induced by the change in flux.
Answer:
Q= NBA/R
Explanation:
Check attachment for derivation
The equation relating the total charge, magnitude, turns, time will be "[tex]\frac{NBA}{R}[/tex]".
Magnetic fieldAccording to the question,
Resistance = R
Total charge = Q
Current = I
Number of turns = N
Time = Δt
and,
Q = IΔt ...(equation 1)
We know the flux,
→ [tex]\Phi[/tex] = NBA
Emf induced,
ε = [tex]\frac{- \Delta \Phi}{\Delta t}[/tex]
Δ[tex]\Phi[/tex] = [tex]\Phi_2 - \Phi_1[/tex]
then,
ε = [tex]\frac{NBA}{\Delta t}[/tex]
As we know, Voltage (V) = iR
then, ε = [tex]\frac{NBA}{\Delta t}[/tex] = iR
i = [tex]\frac{NBA}{R \Delta t}[/tex]
Hence, by applying the values in "equation 1"
→ Q = iΔt
= [tex]\frac{NBA}{R \Delta t}[/tex] × Δt
= [tex]\frac{NBA}{R}[/tex]
Thus the response above is correct.

Find the frequency of the 4th harmonic waves on a violin string that is 48.0cm long with a mass of 0.300 grams
and is under a tension of 4.00N.
Answer:
The frequency of the 4th harmonic of the string is 481.13 Hz.
Explanation:
When a stretch string fixed at both ends is set into vibration, it produces its lowest sound of possible note called the fundamental frequency. Under certain conditions on the string, higher frequencies called harmonics or overtones can be produced.
The frequency of the forth harmonic is the third overtone of the string and can be determined by:
f = [tex]\frac{2}{L}[/tex][tex]\sqrt{\frac{T}{m} }[/tex]
Given that; L = 48.0 cm = 0.48 m,
m = 0.3 g = 0.0003 Kg,
T = 4.0 N,
f = [tex]\frac{2}{0.48}[/tex][tex]\sqrt{\frac{4}{0.0003} }[/tex]
f = 4.1667 × 115.4701
= 481.1252
f = 481.13 Hz
The frequency of the 4th harmonic of the string is 481.13 Hz.

What happens if you move a magnet near a could of wire
Answer:
The wire would stick to the magnet????????????????????????
Explanation:
In this circuit the battery provides 3 V, the resistance R1 is 7 Ω, and R2 is 5 Ω. What is the current through resistor R2? Give your answer in units of Amps. An Amp is 1 Coulomb of charge flowing through a cross-sectional area of the wire per second - that's a lot of charge per second and will warm up a typical wire quite a bit! Most devices have circuits with larger resistors - kLaTeX: \OmegaΩ (103 LaTeX: \OmegaΩ) and MLaTeX: \OmegaΩ (106 LaTeX: \OmegaΩ) are common.
Answer:
The current pass the [tex]R_2[/tex] is [tex]I = 0.25 A[/tex]
Explanation:
The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image
From the question we are told that
The voltage is [tex]V = 3V[/tex]
The first resistance is [tex]R_1 = 7 \Omega[/tex]
The second resistance is [tex]R_2 = 5 \Omega[/tex]
Since the resistors are connected in series their equivalent resistance is
[tex]R_{eq} = R_1 +R_2[/tex]
Substituting values
[tex]R_{eq} = 7 + 5[/tex]
[tex]R_{eq} = 12 \Omega[/tex]
Since the resistance are connected in serie the current passing through the circuit is the same current passing through [tex]R_2[/tex] which is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]I = \frac{V}{R_{eq}}[/tex]
Substituting values
[tex]I = \frac{3}{12}[/tex]
[tex]I = 0.25 A[/tex]
Two wires, both with current out of the page, are next to one another. The wire on the left has a current of 1 A and the wire on the right has a current of 2 A. We can say that:
A. The left wire attracts the right wire and exerts twice the force as the right wire does.
B. The left wire attracts the right wire and exerts half the force as the right wire does.
C. The left wire attracts the right wire and exerts as much force as the right wire does.
D. The left wire repels the right wire and exerts twice the force as the right wire does.
E. The left wire repels the right wire and exerts half the force as the right wire does.
F. The left wire repels the right wire and exerts as much force as the right wire does.
Answer:
C. The left wire attracts the right wire and exerts as much force as the right wire does.
Explanation:
To know what is the answer you first take into account the magnetic field generated by each current, for a distance of d:
[tex]B_1=\frac{\mu_oI_1}{2\pi d}=\frac{\mu_o}{2\pi d}(1A)\\\\B_2=\frac{\mu_oI_2}{2\pi d}=\frac{\mu_o}{2\pi d}(2A)=2B_1\\\\[/tex]
Next, you use the formula for the magnetic force produced by the wires:
[tex]\vec{F_B}=I\vec{L}\ X \vec{B}[/tex]
if the direction of the L vector is in +k direction, the first wire produced a magnetic field with direction +y, that is, +j and the second wire produced magnetic field with direction -y, that is, -j (this because the direction of the magnetic field is obtained by suing the right hand rule). Hence, the direction of the magnetic force on each wire, produced by the other one is:
[tex]\vec{F_{B1}}=I_1L\hat{k}\ X\ B_2(-\hat{j})=I_1LB_2\hat{i}=(2A^2)\frac{L\mu_o}{2\pi d}\hat{i}\\\\\vec{F_{B2}}=I_2L\hat{k}\ X\ B_2(\hat{j})=I_2LB_1\hat{i}=-(2A^2)\frac{L\mu_o}{2\pi d}\hat{i}[/tex]
Hence, due to this result you have that:
C. The left wire attracts the right wire and exerts as much force as the right wire does.
(20) A rocket is launched vertically. At time t = 0 seconds, the rocket’s engine shuts down. At the time, the rocket has reached an altitude of 500m and is rising at a velocity of 125 m/s. Gravity then takes over. The height of the rocket as a function of time is h(t)=-9.8/2 t^2+125t+500,t>0. Using your function file from HW2A: Generate a plot of height (vertical axis) vs. time (horizontal axis) from 0 to 30 seconds. Include proper axis labels.

Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
h(t) = -9.8t² / 2 + 125t + 500
for t > 0.
At t = 0, the rocket is at height h = 500m, at a velocity of Vo = 125m/s.
We want to find the maximum height reached by rocket
Using mathematics maxima and minima
let find the turning point when dh/dt = 0
dh/dt = -9.8t + 125
dh / dt = 0 = -9.8t + 125
9.8t = 125
t = 125 / 9.8
t = 12.76s
Let find the turning point to know if this time t = 12.76 is maximum or minimum point
Let find d²h / dt²
d²h / dt² = -9.8
Since, d²h/dt² < 0, then, at t = 12.76s is the maximum points.
Then, the maximum height reached is
h = -9.8t² / 2 + 125t + 500
h = -9.8(12.76)² / 2 + 125(12.76) + 500
h = -797.80 + 1595 + 500
h = 1297.2 m
The maximum height reached is 1297.2 m
From the attachment, the maximum height is 1297.2m at t = 12.76sec.

If A = (6i-8j) units, B = (-8i-3j) units, and C = (26i-19j) units, determine a and b
such that aA + bB + C = 0
Answer:
Explanation:
given equation
aA + bB + C = 0
Putting the given values
a(6i-8j) +b (-8i-3j) +(26i-19j) = 0
i ( 6a - 8b ) - j ( 8a + 3 b ) = - 26 i + 19 j
comparing the coefficients of i and j
6a - 8b = -26
8a + 3b = -19.
multiplying first equation by 4 and second equation by 3
24a - 32 b = - 104
24a + 9b = -57
9b + 32b = -57 + 104
41 b = 47
b = 1.41
6 a - 8 x 1.41 = -26
6a = -14.72
a = - 2.45
Why does current flow in a coil when a magnet is pushed in and out of the coil ?
Answer:
So the induced current opposes the motion that induced it (from Lenz's Law). When we pull the magnet out, the left hand end of the coil becomes a south pole (to try and hold the magnet back). Therefore the induced current must be flowing clockwise.

A particular coil has 100 turns and a diameter of 6.0 m. When it's time for a measurement, a 4.5 A current is turned on. The large diameter of the coil means that the field in the water flowing directly above the center of the coil is approximately equal to the field in the center of the coil. The field is directed downward and the water is flowing east. The water is flowing above the center of the coil at 1.5 m/s .
What is the magnitude of the field at the center of the coil?
Answer:
The magnetic field at the center of the coil = 5.23 * 10 ^ -5 T
Explanation:
Information from the question:
Number of turns of the coil = 100 turns
The diameter of the coil = 6 m
The radius of the coil = diameter / 2 = 3 m
The coil current = 2.5 A
Formula : The Magnetic field at the center of the coil =
k * number of turns * current / 2 * radius
Therefore, The Magnetic field at the center of the coil=
(4 * [tex]\pi[/tex] * 10 ^ -7 * 100 * 2.5 ) / (2 * 3)
The Magnetic field at the center of the coil = 5.23 * 10 ^ -5 T

In order to get going fast, eagles will use a technique called stooping, in which they dive nearly straight down and tuck in their wings to reduce their surface area. While stooping, a 6- kg golden eagle can reach speeds of up to 53 m/s . While golden eagles are not very vocal, they sometimes make a weak, high-pitched sound. Suppose that while traveling at maximum speed, a golden eagle heads directly towards a pigeon while emitting a sound at 1.1 kHz. The emitted sound has a sound intensity level of 30 dB when heard at a distance of 5 m .A) Model this stooping golden eagle as an object moving at terminal velocity. The eagle’s drag coefficient is 0.5 and the density of air is 1.2 kg/m 3 . What is the effective cross-sectional area of the eagle’s body while stooping?B) What is the doppler-shifted frequency that the pigeon will hear coming from the eagle?C) Consider the moment when the pigeon is 5 m away from the eagle. At the pigeon’s position, what is the intensity (in W/m^2 ) of the sound the eagle makes?D) The golden eagle slams into the 250- g pigeon, which is initially moving at 10 m/s in the opposite direction (toward the eagle). The eagle grabs the pigeon in its talons, and they move off together in a perfectly inelastic collision. How fast do they move after the collision?
Answer:
Check the explanation
Explanation:
Part A
F = CA
this drag force balances the weight = 6X 9.8
so
6X9.8 = 0.5 X A X0.5 X 1.2 X 532
A= 0.069 m2
Part B
here the sorce is moving and the observer is at rest
so f= f(- 1 - 1
f = 1.1X10 343 343 – 53
f' = 1.3 KHz
Part C:
given the intensity = 30 dB
we know that I dB = 10 log (I(W/m2))
so we get I (W/m2) = 1000
Part D : The catch
Given that U1 = 53 M1 = 6 kg
U2 =-10 M2=0.25
V1=V2
now conserving momentum
6 X 53 -0.25 X10 =(6+0.25)V
V= 50.48 m/sec
In a shipping company distribution center, an open cart of mass 50 kg is rolling to the left at a speed of 5 m/s. You can ignore friction between the cart and the floor. A 15 kg package slides down a chute that makes an angle of 27 degrees below the horizontal. The package leaves the chute with a speed of 3 m/s, and lands in the cart after falling for 0.75 seconds. The package comes to a stop in the cart after 4 seconds. What is:a) the speed of the package just before it lands in the cart
Answer:
Explanation:
The package leaves the chute with a speed of 3 m/s, and lands in the cart after falling for 0.75 seconds . During .75 second duration . package undergoes free fall due to which additional vertical velocity is added
velocity added = a x t
= 9.8 x .75
= 7.35 m /s
Total vertical velocity
= 3 sin27 + 7.35
= 8.71 m /s
Horizontal component = 3 cos 27
= 2.67 m /s
If v be the resultant velocity of these components
v² = 2.67² + 8.71²
v² = 7.13 + 75.86
v = 9.11 m /s .

Answer:
Mass
Explanation:
Mass is the measure of amount of matter contained within any substance and hence mass determines the weight. Unit of mass is kilogram as per ISI system of units.
Mass is measured through a balance. The more is the mass of an object, the more the balance tilts towards the object side.
Weight is equal to product of mass and the gravitational constant i.e 9.8m/s^2

One of your classmates, Kevin, is trying to calculate the acceleration due to gravity at the top of Mt. Everest. Looking at an equation sheet, he sees that the acceleration due to gravity is g = G M r 2. For G, he plugs in the gravitational constant. For M, he plugs in the mass of the Earth. For r, Kevin plugs in the elevation (the height above sea level) of Mt. Everest. Will Kevin arrive at the right answer for g at the top of Mt Everest?
Answer:
no.
Explanation:
No because for M he put the mass of the earth instead of the mass of the object.
Kevin will not arrive at the right answer for g if he calculates the height from sea level, it must be from the center of the earth.
Gravitational acceleration:The force of gravity on an object of mass m is given by:
F = GMm/r²
where G is the gravitational constant
M is the mass of the earth
r is the distance from the center of the earth
This force is equal to the weight of the object given by:
mg = GMm/r²
so,
g = GM/r²
But here r is the distance of the object from the center of the earth not from the sea level.
So, Kevin will not arrive at the right answer for g if he calculates the height from sea level.

Suppose you wanted to use a non-reflecting layer for radar waves to make an aircraft invisible. What would the thickness of the layer be to avoid reflecting 2 cm radar waves. (You can neglect changes of wavelength in the layer for this problem.) Would there be any problems as the aircraft turn
Answer:
the thickness of the film for destructive interference is 1 cm
Explanation:
We can assume that the radar wave penetrates the layer and is reflected in the inner part of it, giving rise to an interference phenomenon of the two reflected rays, we must be careful that the ray has a phase change when
* the wave passes from the air to the film with a higher refractive index
* the wavelength inside the film changes by the refractive index
λ = λ₀ / n
so the ratio for destructive interference is
2 n t = m λ
t = m λ / 2n
indicate that the wavelength λ = 2 cm, suppose that the interference occurs for m = 1, therefore it is thickness
t = 1 2/2 n
t = 1 / n
where n is the index of refraction of the anti-reflective layer. As they tell us not to take into account the change in wavelength when penetrating the film n = 1
t = 1 cm
So the thickness of the film for destructive interference is 1 cm
Answer:
the thickness of the film for destructive interference is 1 cm

[tex]E = \frac{1}{2}\left (Number \, of \, decay / seconds \right )\times \left (Energy \, of \, photon \right )[/tex]
[tex]E = \frac{1}{2}\left (2.6\times 10^{-4}Ci )\times \left (\frac{3.70\times 10^{10}decays/s}{1 Ci} \right )\times 1.25\times 10^{6}eV\times \frac{1.6\times 10^{-19}J}{1eV}[/tex]
E = 9.62 × 10⁻⁷ J/s
(ii) The equation for absorbed dose is given as follows;
Absorbed dose, D, in Grays Gy = (Energy Absorbed Joules J)/Mass kg
Therefore, absorbed dose = (9.62 × 10⁻⁷ J/s)/( kg) = 4.81 × 10⁻⁶ Gy
1 Gray = 100 rad
4.81 × 10⁻⁷ Gy = 100 × 4.81 × 10⁻⁶ = 4.81 × 10⁻⁴ rad/s
(iii) Equivalent dose, H, is given by the relation;
H = D × Radiation factor, [tex]w_R[/tex]
∴ H = 0.7 × 4.81 × 10⁻⁴ rad/s = 3.37 × 10⁻⁴ Sv = 3.37 × 10⁻⁴ rem/s
(iv) The exposure time required for an equivalent dose of 200 rem is given as follows;
[tex]\dot{H} = \dfrac{H}{t}[/tex]
Therefore;
[tex]t= \dfrac{200}{{3.37 \times 10^{-4}} } = 593471.81 \, s[/tex]
∴ t = 6.9 days
B. The number of electrons ejected is given by the relation;
[tex]N = \frac{P}{E} = \frac{P \times \lambda}{hc}[/tex]
[tex]N = \dfrac{2.0 \times 10^{-3} \times 400 \times 10^{-9}}{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8} = 4.025 \times 10^{15}/s[/tex]
(ii) The power carried by the electron
The energy carried away by the electrons is given by the relation;
[tex]KE_e = hv - \Phi[/tex]
[tex]KE_e = \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8}{400 \times 10^{-9}} - 2.31 \times \frac{1.6 \times 10 ^{-19} }{1}[/tex]
[tex]KE_e = 4.9695 \times 10^{-19} - 3.696 \times 10 ^{-19} = 1.2735 \times 10^{-19} J[/tex]
Power, P[tex]_e[/tex], carried away by the electron = 4.025 × 10¹⁵ × 1.2735 × 10⁻¹⁹ = 0.512 mW
C. The given parameters are;
d = 1.19 mm, ∴ r = 1.19/2 = 0.595 × 10⁻³ m
l = 50 mm = 5 × 10⁻³ m
V = 500 ml = 5 × 10⁻⁴ m³
η = 0.0027 Pa
p = 1,900 Pa.
[tex]\dfrac{V}{t} = \dfrac{\pi }{8} \times \dfrac{P/l}{\eta } \times r^4[/tex]
[tex]t = \dfrac{8\times \eta\times V\times l }{\pi \times P \times r^4}[/tex]
[tex]t = \dfrac{8\times 0.0027 \times 5 \times 10^{-4} \times 5 \times 10^{-2} }{\pi \times 1900 \times (0.595 \times 10^{-4} )^4}[/tex]
t = 7218092.2 seconds
D) i. Energy absorbed is given by the relation;
E = m×D
Where:
D = 35 Gray = 35 J/kg
m = 18 g = 18 × 10⁻³ kg
∴ E = 35 × 18 × 10⁻³ = 6.3 × 10⁻¹ J
ii. Total time for treatment = 15 × 5 = 75 minutes
Energy absorbed = 6.3 × 10⁻¹ × 100 = 63 J
Power = Energy(in Joules)/Time (in seconds)
∴ Power = 63/(75×60) = 1.4 × 10⁻² W
iii. Whereby the power is provided by 0.5% of the photons emitted by the source, we have;
[tex]P_{source}= \frac{P_{beam}}{0.005} =\frac{0.0014}{0.005} =0.28 \, W[/tex]
1 MeV = 1.60218 × 10⁻¹³ J
0.03 MeV = 0.03 × 1.60218 × 10⁻¹³ J = 4.80654 × 10⁻¹⁵ J/photon
Therefore, the number of disintegration per second = 0.28 J/s ÷ 4.80654 × 10⁻¹⁵ J/photon = 5.83 × 10¹³ disintegrations per second
1 Curie = 3.7 × 10¹⁰ disintegrations per second
Hence, 5.83 × 10¹³ disintegrations per second = (5.83 × 10¹³)/(3.7 × 10¹⁰) Curie
= 1.57 × 10³ Curie
E. The parameters given are;
Density of water = 1000 kg/m³
Volume of water = 250 ml = 0.00025 m³
Initial temperature, T₁, = 25°C
Final temperature, T₂, = 100°C
Change in temperature, ΔT = 100 - 25 = 75°
Specific heat capacity of the water = 4200 J/kg/°C
Mass of water = Density × Volume = 1000 × 0.00025 = 0.25 kg
∴ Heat supplied = 4200 × 0.25 × 75 = 78,750 J
Time to heat the water = 45.0 sec
Therefore, power = Energy/time = 78750/45 = 1750 W
The formula for electrical power = I²R =VI = V²/R
Therefore, where V = 15.0 V, we have;
15²/R = 1750
R = 15²/1750 = 0.129 Ω.
The resistance of the heater = 0.129 Ω.
1. You are playing with a jump rope that is tied at both ends. You untie one end, hold it taut and wiggle the end up and down sinusoidally with frequency 2.00Hz and amplitude 0.075m. At time t=0, the end has a maximum positive displacement and is instantaneously at rest. Assume no wave bounces back from the far end to change the pattern. What is the equation for the displacement of the wave? What is the displacement at a point 3.00m from the end .
Answer:
[tex]f(x=3.00m)=0.075mcos(\frac{2\pi(2.00Hz)}{v}(3.00m))[/tex]
Explanation:
To find the equation of the wave you use the general equation for a wave, given by:
[tex]f(x)=Acos(k x-\omega t)[/tex]
A: amplitude of the wave = 0.075m
k: wave number
you select a cosine function because for x=0 and t= 0 you get a maximum displacement.
To find the displacement of the wave for x=0 you can consider that the form of the wave is independent of time t.
Then, you calculate k:
[tex]k=\frac{\omega}{v}=\frac{2\pi f}{v}[/tex]
Thus, you need the value of the speed of the wave (you only have the frequency f), in order to calculate f(x), for x=3.00m:
[tex]f(x=3.00m)=0.075mcos(\frac{2\pi(2.00Hz)}{v}(3.00m))[/tex]
