Determine the magnitude of the force that must be applied to a wooden block whose weight has a magnitude of 8N, so that it acquires an acceleration of 0.5 m / s²

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

F = 0.408 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Weight of a wooden block, W = 8 N

Weight, W = mg

m is mass of wooden block

[tex]m=\dfrac{W}{g}\\\\m=\dfrac{8\ N}{9.8\ m/s^2}\\\\m=0.816\ kg[/tex]

Acceleration of the block, a = 0.5 m/s²

Force, F = ma

[tex]F=0.816\ kg\times 0.5\ m/s^2\\\\F=0.408\ N[/tex]

So, the magnitude of force applied to the wooden block is 0.408 N.

You and your family are going on a trip in Europe. Calculate the speed in the following scenario. State how you calculated your answer and include correct units. A car travels 240 kilometers in 3 hours; What is the speed of the car during that time?

Answers

Answer:

22.2 m/s or 80 km/h

Explanation:

Given that

Distance travelled by the car, d = 240 km

Time taken by the car, t = 3 hours.

Speed of the car, v = ? m/s

for easy calculations, we will be converting the units to meters and seconds respectively.

240 km to meters would be

240 * 1000 m = 240000 m

3 hrs to seconds would be

3 * 60 mins * 60 seconds = 10800 s

now, we have our distance and time to be

d = 240000 m

t = 10800 s

speed is defined as the ratio of distance with respect to time taken, effectively,

Speed = distance/time

speed, v= 240000 / 10800

v = 22.2 m/s

therefore, the speed of the car during the time is 22.2 m/s, or if the speed is needed in km/h, we can convert it

22.2 * 3600/1000 =

80 km/h

An archer shoots an arrow in the air, horizontally. However, after moving some
distance, the arrow falls to the ground. Name and define the initial force that sets
the arrow in motion. Explain why the arrow ultimately falls down.​

Answers

Answer:

The name of the force is elastic (spring) force

Explanation:

The elastic force which is the restoration force of an elastic (spring like) object that tries to return to its initial non-stretched state built up by the pulling of the bow by the archer (using the muscles) pushes on the arrow which the archer releases the same time he leaves the bow string, and the arrow flies in the direction already pointed by the archer

The arrow ultimately falls down due to gravity forces that acts on all objects within the Earths gravitational field. However due to the speed of constant horizontal speed of the arrow and increasing downward speed of the due to the gravity force, the falling of the arrow looks disappointing.

in the derivation of the time period of a pendulum in electric field when considering the fbd of bob to find the g effective why do we neglect tension

Answers

Answer:

we learned that an object that is vibrating is acted upon by a restoring force. The restoring force causes the vibrating object to slow down as it moves away from the equilibrium position and to speed up as it approaches the equilibrium position. It is this restoring force that is responsible for the vibration. So what forces act upon a pendulum bob? And what is the restoring force for a pendulum? There are two dominant forces acting upon a pendulum bob at all times during the course of its motion. There is the force of gravity that acts downward upon the bob. It results from the Earth's mass attracting the mass of the bob. And there is a tension force acting upward and towards the pivot point of the pendulum. The tension force results from the string pulling upon the bob of the pendulum. In our discussion, we will ignore the influence of air resistance - a third force that always opposes the motion of the bob as it swings to and fro. The air resistance force is relatively weak compared to the two dominant forces.

The gravity force is highly predictable; it is always in the same direction (down) and always of the same magnitude - mass*9.8 N/kg. The tension force is considerably less predictable. Both its direction and its magnitude change as the bob swings to and fro. The direction of the tension force is always towards the pivot point. So as the bob swings to the left of its equilibrium position, the tension force is at an angle - directed upwards and to the right. And as the bob swings to the right of its equilibrium position, the tension is directed upwards and to the left. The diagram below depicts the direction of these two forces at five different positions over the course of the pendulum's path.

The position vector is given by vector r= 5t² I cap + 2 t³ j cap + 2 k cap. Find it's velocity and acceleration at t=2s.

Answers

Answer:

We have the position vector given in terms of time t. r(t) = t^3*i + t^2*j

To find the velocity vector we have to differentiate r(t) with respect to time.

r'(t) = 3t^2*i + 2t*j

The vector representing acceleration is the derivative of the position vector

r''(t) = 6t*i + 2*j

When time t = 2.

The velocity vector is 3*2^2*i + 2*2*j

=> 12*i + 4*j

The speed is the absolute value of the velocity vector or sqrt(12^2 + 4^2) = sqrt (144 + 16) = sqrt 160

The acceleration vector is 6*2*i + 2*j

=> 12*i + 2*j

The required acceleration at t=2 is 12*i + 2*j and the speed is sqrt 160.

A person holds a 25 kg (250 newton) bag of cement over his head and moves it a distance of 10 m, taking 2 minutes, while another person carries it on a wheelbarrow that same distance, taking 1 minute.Who does more work ? What is the power of each person?

Answers

Explanation:

Assuming the 10 m distance is the vertical displacement, the work done by both people is the same.

Work = force × distance

W = (250 N) (10 m)

W = 2500 J

The power of the first person is:

Power = work / time

P = 2500 J / 120 s

P = 20.83 W

The power of the second person is:

P = 2500 J / 60 s

P = 41.67 W

A narrow beam of light containing red (660 nm) and blue (470 nm) wavelengths travels from air through a 1.00 cm thick flat piece of crown glass and back to air again. The beam strikes at an incident angle of 30 degrees. (a) At what angles do the two colors emerge

Answers

Answer:

The color blue emerges at 19.16° and the color red emerges at 19.32°.

Explanation:

The angle at which the two colors emerge can be calculated using the Snell's Law:

[tex]n_{1}sin(\theta_{1}) = n_{2}sin(\theta_{2})[/tex]

Where:

n₁ is the refractive index of the incident medium (air) = 1.0003

n₂ is the refractive index of the refractive medium:

    blue light in crown glass = 1.524

    red light in crown glass = 1.512

θ₁ is the angle of the incident light = 30°

θ₂ is the angle of the refracted light                            

For the red wavelengths we have:

[tex] \theta_{2} = arcsin(\frac{n_{1}sin(\theta_{1})}{n_{2}}) = arcsin(\frac{1.0003*sin(30)}{1.512}) = 19.32 ^{\circ} [/tex]

For the blue wavelengths we have:

[tex] \theta_{2} = arcsin(\frac{n_{1}sin(\theta_{1})}{n_{2}}) = arcsin(\frac{1.0003*sin(30)}{1.524}) = 19.16 ^{\circ} [/tex]

Therefore, the color blue emerges at 19.16° and the color red emerges at 19.32°.  

I hope it helps you!

Can someone please illustrate how the refracted ray will look like?

Answers

Answer

As the angle of incidence increases in Figure 2.8, a point is finally reached where the refracted ray does not emerge at the second layer but lie along the interface. This particular angle of incidence at which the angle of refraction is 90° and the refracted ray lies along the interface is known as the critical angle. At and beyond the critical angle, there is no transmitted ray and therefore a very high reflected ray will be recorded .

Therefore,

sinθisin90=Vp1Vp2

But, sin 90 = 1.

At critical angle,

sinθcritical=Vp1Vp2

A critical refracted wave travels along the interface between layers and is refracted back into the upper layer at the critical angle. The waves refracted back into the upper layer are called head waves or first-break refractions because at certain distances from a source, they are the first arriving energy. Recorded first-break refraction is shown in Figure 2.10.

Note that these first-break refractions can give us important information about the shallow velocities on land seismic data.

Note also that seismic data are acquired in such a way that reflections from horizons of interest are in the pre-critical region, even at the farthest offset in the data.

In reality, part of the seismic energy arriving at an interface is transmitted and refracted, and another part of the energy is reflected at that same interface. Given that there are many reflectors in the subsurface, there will be many paths from source to receiver, each of them with a different travel time. The proportion of energy reflected depends on the material properties of the two bounding layers and on the angle of incidence

If 60 L of a gas are at 4 atm and 27 C °, what pressure would it have if the volume is 40 L 127 C °?

Answers

Answer:

8 atm

Explanation:

Ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

where P is pressure, V is volume, n is moles, R is universal gas constant, and T is absolute temperature.

If n is constant:

PV / T = PV / T

(4 atm) (60 L) / (27 + 273) K = P (40 L) / (127 + 273) K

0.8 atm = 0.1 P

(Choice B) B The total displacement of the trip is 300 miles. (Choice C) C The average speed is 37.5 miles per hour. (Choice D) D The car travels at 50 mph for the first half and 30 mph for the second half.

Answers

Answer: D

Explanation:

Given that a car travels from point A to B in 3 hours and returns back to point A in 5 hours. Points A and B are 150 miles apart along a straight highway.

From point A to B

The speed = distance / time

Where

Distance = 150 mile

Time = 3 hours

Substitute the values into the formula

Speed = 150/3 = 50 mile/ hours

From Point B to Point A

Distance = 150 miles

Time = 5 hours

Where speed = distance/ time

substitute all the parameters into the formula

Speed = 150/5 = 30 mph

Therefore, The car travels at 50 mph for the first half and 30 mph for the second half.

A 2-kg cart, traveling on a horizontal air track with a speed of 3m/s, collides with a stationary 4-kg cart. The carts stick together. The impulse exerted by one cart on the other has a magnitude of

Answers

Answer:

The impulse exerted by one cart on the other has a magnitude of 4 N.s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the first cart, m₁ = 2 kg

initial speed of the first car, u₁ = 3 m/s

mass of the second cart, m₂ = 4 kg

initial speed of the second cart, u₂ = 0

Let the final speed of both carts = v, since they stick together after collision.

Apply the principle of conservation of momentum to determine v

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

2 x 3 + 0 = v(2 + 4)

6 = 6v

v = 1 m/s

Impulse is given by;

I = ft = mΔv = m(

The impulse exerted by the first cart on the second cart is given;

I = 2 (3 -1 )

I = 4 N.s

The impulse exerted by the second cart on the first cart is given;

I = 4(0-1)

I = - 4 N.s (equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the impulse exerted by the first).

Therefore, the impulse exerted by one cart on the other has a magnitude of 4 N.s.

A. The wave has traveled 32.4 cm in 3 seconds.

B. The wave has traveled 32.4 cm in 9 seconds.

C. The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 3 seconds.

D. The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 1 second.

The answer to this question is D. The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 1 second.

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave, which is in this case 3 hertz, represents the number of waves that go through a point during 1 second. According to this, if the frequency of the wave is 3 hertz this means in 1 second there were 3 waves. Moreover, if you multiply the wavelength (32.4cm) by the frequency (3) you will know the distance the wave traveled in 1 second: 32.4 x 3 =  97.2 cm. This makes option D the correct one as the distance in 1 second was 97.2 cm.
