Assume that a friend hands you a 10-newton box to hold for her. If you hold the box without moving it at a height of 10 meters above the ground, how much work do you do
Answer:
100 Joules
Explanation:
Applying,
W = mgh................... Equation 1
Where W = workdone to hold the box above the ground, mg = weight of the box, h = height of the box.
From the question,
Given: mg = 10 newtons, h = 10 meters.
Substitute these values into equation 1
W = 10×10
W = 100 Joules.
Hence the amount of workdone is 100 Joules

The cart travels the track again and now experiences a constant tangential acceleration from point A to point C. The speeds of the cart are 11.0 ft/s at point A and 18.0 ft/s at point C. The cart takes 5.00 s to go from point A to point C, and the cart takes 1.30 s to go from point B to point C. What is the cart's speed at point B
Answer:
The speed at B is 16.18 ft/s .
Explanation:
Speed at A, u = 11 ft/s
Speed at C, v' = 18 ft/s
Time from A to C = 5 s
Time from B to C = 1.3 s
Let the speed of car at B is v.
Let the acceleration is a.
From A to B
Use first equation of motion
v = u + a t
18 = 11 + a x 5
a = 1.4 ft/s^2
Let the time from A to B is t' .
t' = 5 - 1.3 = 3.7 s
Use first equation of motion from A to B
v = 11 + 1.4 x 3.7 = 16.18 ft/s

A force of 200 N, acting at 60° to the horizontal, accelerates a block of mass 50 kg along a horizontal plane. Calculate the component of the 200N force that accelerates the block horizontally
Answer:
Explanation:
a) Fx = F cos (θ)
= (200) cos(60)
= 100 N
b) FR = ma
Fx + Ff = ma

The decay rate equation is given by
[tex]N = N_0e^{-\frac{t}{\lambda}}[/tex]
where [tex]\lambda[/tex] is the half-life. We can rewrite this as

A proton traveling at 17.6° with respect to the direction of a magnetic field of strength 3.28 mT experiences a magnetic force of 9.14 × 10-17 N. Calculate (a) the proton's speed and (b) its kinetic energy in electron-volts.
Answer:
a) The proton's speed is 5.75x10⁵ m/s.
b) The kinetic energy of the proton is 1723 eV.
Explanation:
a) The proton's speed can be calculated with the Lorentz force equation:
[tex] F = qv \times B = qvBsin(\theta) [/tex] (1)
Where:
F: is the force = 9.14x10⁻¹⁷ N
q: is the charge of the particle (proton) = 1.602x10⁻¹⁹ C
v: is the proton's speed =?
B: is the magnetic field = 3.28 mT
θ: is the angle between the proton's speed and the magnetic field = 17.6°
By solving equation (1) for v we have:
[tex]v = \frac{F}{qBsin(\theta)} = \frac{9.14 \cdot 10^{-17} N}{1.602\cdot 10^{-19} C*3.28 \cdot 10^{-3} T*sin(17.6)} = 5.75 \cdot 10^{5} m/s[/tex]
Hence, the proton's speed is 5.75x10⁵ m/s.
b) Its kinetic energy (K) is given by:
[tex] K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} [/tex]
Where:
m: is the mass of the proton = 1.67x10⁻²⁷ kg
[tex] K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2}1.67 \cdot 10^{-27} kg*(5.75 \cdot 10^{5} m/s)^{2} = 2.76 \cdot 10^{-16} J*\frac{1 eV}{1.602 \cdot 10^{-19} J} = 1723 eV [/tex]
Therefore, the kinetic energy of the proton is 1723 eV.

Why is oiling done time and again in a sewing machine?
Answer:
to prevent friction on the surfaces
Answer:
Explanation:
Oiling reduces friction between parts with relative motion between them.
Repeated oiling is needed as the film of oil reducing the friction becomes thinner with time as some of the oil gets pushed off of the areas of motion where it can no longer be useful.
Oil also becomes oxidized which reduces the oil's ability to decrease friction.
Oil can also be fouled by dirt, lint or other material. This added material becomes coated in oil and typically gets sequestered away from the moving parts reducing the oil available for lubrication purposes.

Andrea's near point is 20.0 cm and her far point is 2.0 m. Her contact lenses are designed so that she can see objects that are infinitely far away. What is the closest distance that she can see an object clearly when she wears her contacts?
Answer:
the closest distance that she can see an object clearly when she wears her contacts is 22.2 cm
Explanation:
Given the data in the question,
near point = 20 cm
far point = 2 m = 200 cm
Now, for an object that is infinitely far away, the image is at is its far point.
so using the following expression, we can determine the focal length
1/f = 1/i + 1/o
where f is the focal length, i is the image distance and o is the object distance.
here, far point i = 2 m = 200 cm and v is ∞
so we substitute
1/f = 1/(-200 cm) + 1/∞
f = -200 cm
Also, for object at its closest point, the image appear at near point,
so
1/f = 1/i + 1/o
we make o the subject of formula
o = ( i × f ) / ( i - f )
given that near point i = 20 cm
we substitute
o = ( -20 × -200 ) / ( -20 - (-200) )
o = 4000 / 180
o = 22.2 cm
Therefore, the closest distance that she can see an object clearly when she wears her contacts is 22.2 cm
