A cold block of metal feels colder than a block of wood at the same temperature. Why? A hot block of metal feels hotter than a block of wood at the same temperature. Again, why? Is there any temperature at which the two blocks feel equally hot or cold? What temperature is this?

Answers

Answer 1

: In general, metals feel colder or hotter to the touch than other materials at the same temperature because they're good thermal conductors. This means they easily transfer heat to colder objects or absorb heat from warmer objects

Answer 2

It is because the metal conducted heat faster than it feels colder than the wood, which conducted heat slower. Even tho they are similar temperatures. The metal will feel colder than the wood because of the thermal conductivity of the metal, compared to the wood.

A block of weight 1200N is on an incline plane of 30° with the horizontal, a force P is applied to the body parallel to the plane, if the coefficient of the static friction is 0.20 and kinetic friction is 0.15 (1) find the value of P to cause motion up the plane (2) find P to prevent motion down the plane. (3) Find P to cause continuous motion up the plane.​

Answers

Answer:

a)  P = 807.85 N,  b)  P = 392.15 N,  c)  P = 444.12 N

Explanation:

For this exercise, let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame with the x-axis parallel to the plane and the direction rising as positive, and the y-axis perpendicular to the plane.

Let's use trigonometry to break down the weight

         sin θ = Wₓ / W

         cos θ = W_y / W

         Wₓ = W sin θ

         W_y = W cos θ

         Wₓ = 1200 sin 30 = 600 N

          W_y = 1200 cos 30 = 1039.23 N

Y axis  

      N- W_y = 0

      N = W_y = 1039.23 N

Remember that the friction force always opposes the movement

a) in this case, the system will begin to move upwards, which is why friction is static

       P -Wₓ -fr = 0

       P = Wₓ + fr

as the system is moving the friction coefficient is dynamic

      fr = μ N

      fr = 0.20 1039.23

      fr = 207.85 N

we substitute

       P = 600+ 207.85

       P = 807.85 N

b) to avoid downward movement implies that the system is stopped, therefore the friction coefficient is static

        P + fr -Wx = 0

       fr = μ N

       fr = 0.20 1039.23

        fr = 207.85 N

we substitute

        P =  Wₓ -fr

        P = 600 - 207,846

        P = 392.15 N

c) as the movement is continuous, the friction coefficient is dynamic

         P - Wₓ + fr = 0

         P = Wₓ - fr

         fr = 0.15 1039.23

         fr = 155.88 N

         P = 600 - 155.88

         P = 444.12 N

Answers

Answer:

 θ = 32.4º

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Malus's law

         I = Io cos² θ

in this case it indicates that the incident intensity is 370 W/m², when the first polarization passes, only the radiation with the same polarization of the polarizer emerges, that is, vertical

         I₀ = 370/2 = 185 W / m²

this is the radiation that affects the second polarizer, let's apply the expression of Maluz

         θ = cos⁻¹ ([tex]\sqrt{\frac{I}{I_o} }[/tex])

         θ = cos⁻¹ ([tex]\sqrt{132/185}[/tex])

         θ = cos⁻¹ (0.844697)

         θ = 32.4º

Suppose a 65 kg person stands at the edge of a 6.5 m diameter merry-go-round turntable that is mounted on frictionless bearings and has a moment of inertia of 1850 kgm2. The turntable is at rest initially, but when the person begins running at a speed of 3.8 m/s (with respect to the turntable) around its edge, the turntable begins to rotate in the opposite direction. Calculate the angular velocity of the turntable. (Hint: use what you know about relative velocity to help solve the problem

Answers

Answer:

[tex]0.3165\ \text{rad/s}[/tex]

Explanation:

m = Mass of person = 65 kg

d = Diameter of round table = 6.5 m

r = Radius = [tex]\dfrac{d}{2}=3.25\ \text{m}[/tex]

v = Velocity of person running = 3.8 m/s

[tex]I_t[/tex] = Moment of inertia of turntable = [tex]1850\ \text{kg m}^2[/tex]

Moment of inertia of the system is

[tex]I=I_t+mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=1850+65\times 3.25^2\\\Rightarrow I=2536.5625\ \text{kg m}^2[/tex]

As the angular momentum of the system is conserved we have

[tex]L_i=L_f\\\Rightarrow mvr=I\omega_f\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=\dfrac{mvr}{I}\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=\dfrac{65\times 3.8\times 3.25}{2536.5625}\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=0.3165\ \text{rad/s}[/tex]

The angular velocity of the turntable is [tex]0.3165\ \text{rad/s}[/tex].

You are riding on a carousel that is rotating at a constant 24 rpm. It has an inside radius of 4 ftand outside radius of 12 ft. You begin to run from the inside to the outside along a radius. Your peak velocity with respect to the carousel is 6 mph and occurs at a radius of 8 ft.What are your maximum Coriolis acceleration magnitude and its directionwith respect to the carousel

Answers

Answer:

magnitude of the Coriolis acceleration is 44.235 ft/s² and the direction of the acceleration is along the axis of transmission

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Speed of carousel N = 24 rpm

From the diagram below, selected path direction defines the Axis of slip.

Hence, The Coriolis is acting along the axis of transmission

Now, we determine the angular speed ω of the carousel.

ω = 2πN / 60

we substitute in the value of N

ω = (2π × 24) / 60

ω = 2.5133 rad/s

Next, we convert the given velocity from mph to ft/s

we know that; 1 mph = 1.4667 ft/s

so

[tex]V_{slip[/tex] = 6 mph = ( 6 × 1.4667 ) = 8.8002 ft/s

Now, we determine the magnitude of the Coriolis acceleration

[tex]a_c[/tex] = 2( [tex]V_{slip[/tex] × ω )

we substitute

[tex]a_c[/tex] = 2( 8.8002 ft/s × 2.5133 rad/s )

[tex]a_c[/tex] = 44.235 ft/s²

Hence, magnitude of the Coriolis acceleration is 44.235 ft/s² and the direction of the acceleration is along the axis of transmission

Answer:

3 m/s

Explanation:

Applying,

The Law of conservation of momentum

Momentum of the girl skater = momentum of the boy skater

MV = mv...................... Equation 1

Where M = mass of the girl skater, V = velocity of the girl skater, m = mass of the boy skater, v = velocity of the boy skater

From the question, we were asked to calculate v

If you weigh 690 N on the earth, what would be your weight on the surface of a neutron star that has the same mass as our sun and a diameter of 15.0 km ? Take the mass of the sun to be ms = 1.99×1030 kg , the gravitational constant to be G = 6.67×10−11 N⋅m2/kg2 , and the free-fall acceleration at the earth's surface to be g = 9.8 m/s2 . Express your weight wstar in newtons.

Answers

Answer:

W' = 1.66 x 10¹⁴ N

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the mass:

[tex]W = mg[/tex]

where,

W = weight on earth = 690 N

m = mass = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

[tex]m = \frac{W}{g} = \frac{690\ N}{9.8\ m/s^2}\\\\m = 70.4\ kg[/tex]

Now, we will calculate the value of g on the neutron star:

[tex]g' = \frac{GM}{R^2}[/tex]

where,

g' = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the neutron star = ?

G = Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

M = Mass of the Neutron Star = 1.99 x 10³⁰ kg

R = Radius of the Neutron Star = 15 km/2 = 7.5 km = 7500 m

Therefore,

[tex]g' = \frac{(6.67\ x\ 10^{-11}\ N.m^2/kg^2)(1.99\ x\ 10^{30}\ kg)}{(7500\ m)^2}\\\\g' = 2.36\ x\ 10^{12}\ m/s^2[/tex]

Therefore, the weight on the surface of the neutron star will be:

[tex]W' = mg'\\W' = (70.4\ kg)(2.36\ x\ 10^{12}\ m/s^2)[/tex]

W' = 1.66 x 10¹⁴ N

Transverse thrusters are used to make large ships fully maneuverable at low speeds without tugboat assistance. A transverse thruster consists of a propeller mounted in a duct; the unit is then mounted below the waterline in the bow or stern of the ship. The duct runs completely across the ship. Calculate the thrust developed by a 1900 kW unit supplied to the propeller if the duct is 2.6 m in diameter and the ship is stationary.

Answers

Answer:

Thrust developed = 212.3373 kN

Explanation:

Assuming the ship is stationary

Determine the Thrust developed

power supplied to the propeller ( Punit ) = 1900 KW

Duct distance ( diameter ; D  ) = 2.6 m

first step : calculate the area of the duct

A = π/4 * D^2

   =  π/4 * ( 2.6)^2  = 5.3092 m^2

next : calculate the velocity of propeller

Punit = (A*v*β ) / 2  * V^2     ( assuming β = 999 kg/m^3 ) also given V1 = 0

∴V^3 = Punit * 2 / A*β

         = ( 1900 * 10^3 * 2 ) / ( 5.3092 * 999 )

hence V2 = 8.9480 m/s

Finally determine the thrust developed

F = Punit / V2

  = (1900 * 10^3) / ( 8.9480)

  = 212.3373 kN

Required:
How often does the flashlight flash relative to the captain?

Answers

Answer:

1.04 s

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

t = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (v/c)^2)

here

v = 0.5c

t = 1.20 -s

So,

1.20 = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (0.5/c)^2)

1.20 = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (0.5)^2)

1.20 = t' ÷ √0.75

1.20 = t' ÷ 0.866

t' = 0.866 × 1.20

= 1.04 s

The above formula should be applied

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A particle is directed along the axis of the instrument in the figure below. A parallel plate capacitor sets up an electric field E, which is oriented perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B. If the plates are separated by d = 2.0 mm and the value of the magnetic field is B = 0.60T.

Calculate the potential difference, between the capacitor plates, required to allow a particle with speed v = 5.0 × 10⁵ m/s to pass straight through without deflection.

Hint : ΔV = Ed

Answer:

the required potential difference, between the capacitor plates is 600 V

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

B = 0.60 T

d = 2.0 mm = 0.002 m

v = 5.0 × 10⁵ m/s.

since particle pass straight through without deflection.

F[tex]_{net[/tex] = 0

so, F[tex]_E[/tex] = F[tex]_B[/tex]

qE = qvB

divide both sides by q

E = vB

we substitute

E = (5.0 × 10⁵) × 0.6

E = 300000 N/C

given that; potential difference ΔV = Ed

we substitute

ΔV = 300000 × 0.002

ΔV = 600 V

Therefore, the required potential difference, between the capacitor plates is 600 V

In the areas that are getting more rays from the sun, it gets warmer.  Think about it like this, because the earth is tilted, part of it is more in the shade and part of it is more in the light. And its colder in the shade, so thats why seasons happen and why they dont happen at the same time.
