a uniform meter ruler is balanced at its midpoint

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) i) x = 0.25 m, ii) x = 0.10 m, iii)  x = 0.050 m

b) i)  x = 0.40 m

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we use the rotational equilibrium equation, where we assume that the anticlockwise rotations are positive.

1) L = 2W  

we set our reference system in the center of the bar where the fulcrum is

              ∑τ = 0

              W 0.50 - L x = 0

              x = 0.50 W / L

we substitute the value

              x = 0.50 W / 2W

              x = 0.25 m

ii) L = 5W

we calculate

              x = 0.50 W / 5W

              x = 0.10 m

iii) L = 10 W

               x = 0.50 W / 10W

              x = 0.050 m

b) a new weight is placed at x₂ = 30 cm on the left side

              W 0.50 + W 0.30 - L x = 0

              x = (0.50 + 0.30) W / L

              x = 0.80 W / L

we calculate

i)  L = 2W

                x = 0.80 w / 2w

                x = 0.40 m

A bullet with a mass mb=13.5 g is fired into a block of wood at velocity vb=245 m/s. The block is attached to a spring that has a spring constant k of 205 N/m. The block and bullet continue to move, compressing the spring by 35.0 cm before the whole system momentarily comes to a stop. Assuming that the surface on which the block is resting is frictionless, determine the mass mw of the wooden block.

Answers

Momentum is conserved, so the sum of the momenta of the bullet and block before collision is equal to the momentum of the combined bullet-block system,

[tex]m_bv_b+m_wv_w = (m_b+m_w)v[/tex]

where v is the speed of the bullet-block system. The block starts at rest so it has no initial momentum, and solving for v gives

[tex]v = \dfrac{m_b}{m_b+m_w} v_b[/tex]

The total work W performed by the spring on the bullet-block system as it is compressed a distance x is

[tex]W = -\dfrac12kx^2[/tex]

where k is the spring constant, and the work done is negative because the restoring force of the spring opposes the bullet-block as it compresses the spring.

By the work-energy theorem, the total work done is equal to the change in the bullet-block's kinetic energy ∆K, so we have

[tex]W_{\rm total} = W = \Delta K[/tex]

The bullet-block starts moving with velocity v found earlier and comes to a stop as the spring slows it down, so we have

[tex]-\dfrac12kx^2 = -\dfrac12(m_b+m_w)v^2 \implies kx^2 = \dfrac{{m_b}^2}{m_b+m_w}{v_b}^2[/tex]

Solve for [tex]m_w[/tex]:

[tex]m_w=\dfrac1k\left(\dfrac{m_bv_b}x\right)^2-m_b[/tex]

[tex]m_w=\dfrac1{205\frac{\rm N}{\rm m}}\left(\dfrac{(0.0135\,\mathrm{kg})\left(245\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)}{0.350\,\rm m}\right)^2-0.0135\,\mathrm{kg}\approx \boxed{0.422\,\mathrm{kg}}[/tex]

How does the temperature of a planet determine the states of matter you would observe on that planet?

Answers

Explanation:

the temperature will determine the kinetic energy or degree of freedom of the molecules of matter.

if the temperature is high, the kinetic energy of the molecules increase which may cause a change of state into a gas which has molecules of high kinetic energy. this shows that temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy of the molecules.

An observer measures a 100 Hz Doppler shift as an ambulance goes by. At rest, the frequency of the ambulance's siren is 2,000 Hz. What is the speed of the ambulance?

Answers

The change in the frequency of the sound, due to the relative motion of the source of sound and the observer, is determined by the Doppler's Effect.

The speed of the ambulance (source) is "6517 m/s"

The equation of Doppler's Effect is given as follows:

[tex]f_o = \frac{v+v_o}{v+v_s}f_s[/tex]

where,

[tex]f_o\\[/tex] = frequency of sound measure by observer  = 100 Hz

v = speed of sound = 343 m/s

[tex]v_o[/tex] = speed of observer = 0 m/s

[tex]v_s[/tex] = speed of ambulance (source) = ?

[tex]f_s[/tex] = actual frequency = 2000 Hz

Therefore, using the values, we get:

[tex]100\ Hz = \frac{343\ m/s + 0\ m/s}{343\ m/s + v_s}(2000\ Hz)\\\\(100\ Hz)(343\ m/s + v_s) = (343\ m/s)(2000\ Hz)\\\\v_s = \frac{686000\ Hz.m/s - 34300\ Hz.m/s}{100\ Hz}[/tex]

v_s = 6517 m/s

Answers

Answer:

Mass = 0.04 Kg

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Density = 800 kg/m³

Volume = 5 * 10^{-5} m³

To find the mass of the object;

Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.

Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.

Mathematically, density is given by the formula;

[tex] Density = \frac {mass}{volume} [/tex]

Making mass the subject of formula, we have;

[tex] Mass = density * volume [/tex]

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

[tex] Mass = 800 * 5 * 10^{-5} [/tex]

Mass = 0.04 Kg

The moon Phobos orbits Mars
(mass = 6.42 x 1023 kg) at
a distance
of 9.38 x 106 m. What is its period of
orbit?
[?]s

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

We are basically needing to solve for the time in the equation d = rt, where d is the distance around Mars (aka the circumference), r is the velocity, and t is time. We need to find the circumference and the velocity. We will begin with the velocity.

Because the gravitational attraction between Phobos and Mars provides the centripetal acceleration necessary to keep Phobos in its (sort of) circular path, the equation we use for this is:

[tex]F_g=F_c[/tex] which says that Force supplied by gravity is equal to the centripetal force. Expanding that:

[tex]\frac{Gm_{Phobos}m_{Mars}}{r^2}=\frac{m_{Phobos}v^2}{r}[/tex]

When we move that around mathematically to solve for the velocity value, what we end up with is:

[tex]v=\sqrt{\frac{Gm_{Mars}}{r}[/tex] and filling in:

[tex]v=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(6.42*10^{23})}{9.38*10^6} }[/tex] and we get that

v = 2100 m/s

Now for the circumference:

C = 2πr and

C = 2(3.1415)(9.38 × 10⁶) so

C = 5.9 × 10⁷

Putting that all together in the C = vT equation:

5.9 × 10⁷ = 2100T so

T = 2.8 × 10⁴ sec or 7.8 hours

What is 98.907 rounded to 1 significant figure?

Answers

The answer to the digits rounded to one significant figure is 100.

Significant figures are the most important figures in a number of digits.

The closer a digit is to the beginning of a number, the more important  or significant  it is.

But, the rule for rounding up a set of numbers to the first significant or to one significant figure is that:

If the next number is 5 or more, we round up.If the next number is 4 or less, we do not round up.

From the numbers 98.907, 9 is the most significant digit followed by 8.

8 is greater than 5 so we should round up by adding one to 9 making the number 100.

Two forces whose resultant is 100N are at right angle to eachother. if one of them makes an angle of 30° with the resultant, determine its magnitude​

Answers

Let F₁ and F₂ denote the two forces, and R the resultant force.

F₁ and F₂ point perpendicularly to one another, so their dot product is

F₁ F₂ = 0

We're given that one of these vectors, say F₁, makes an angle with R of 30°, so that

F₁ • R = ||F₁|| ||R|| cos(30°)

But we also have

F₁ • R = F₁ • (F₁ + F₂) = (F₁ F₁) + (F₁ F₂) = F₁ F₁ = ||F₁||²

So, knowing that ||R|| = 100 N, we get that

(100 N) ||F₁|| cos(30°) = ||F₁||²

(100 N) cos(30°) = ||F₁||

||F₁|| ≈ 86.6 N

(And the same would be true for F₂.)

The plane of a5cm*8cm rectangular loop of wire is parallel to a 0.19T magnetic field the loop carries a current of 6.2 A. What torque acts on aloop? What is the magnetic moment of the loop?

Answers

Answer:

Torque; τ = 4.712 × 10^(-3) J

Magnetic moment; M = 0.0248 J/T

Explanation:

Torque is gotten from the formula;

τ = BIA

Where;

B is magnetic field

I is current

A is area

We are given;

B = 0.19T

I = 6.2A

Rectangle dimensions = 5cm by 8cm = 0.05m by 0.08m

Thus;

Area; A = 0.05m × 0.08m = 0.004 m²

Thus;

τ = 0.19 × 6.2 × 0.004

τ = 4.712 × 10^(-3) J

Formula for the magnetic moment is given by;

M = IA

M = 6.2 × 0.004

M = 0.0248 J/T
