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.
as fast as you can find the answer
Answer:
Explanation:
a) From the diagram, the load will be expressed in newton. The load will be the weight of the box on the inclined plane.
Load = mass * acceleration due to gravity.
Given the mass of the object = 100kg
acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²
Load (in Newton) = 100*9.8
Load (in Newton) = 980N
b) The formula for calculating the velocity ratio of an inclined plane is expressed as VR = 1/sinθ where θ is the angle of inclination.
Given θ = 30°,
VR = 1/sin30°
VR = 1/0.5
VR = 1/(1/2)
VR = 1* 2/1
VR = 2
The velocity ratio is 2.
c) Length of the inclined plane can be calculated using the SOH, CAH, TOA trigonometry identity.
According to SOH, sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse
sin30° = 1/2 = opp/hyp
This shows that the opposite side of the triangle is 1 and the hypotenuse is 2. The length if the inclined is the length of the longest side i.e the hypotenuse. Hence the length of the inclined plane is 2m
d) Mechanical Advantage is the ratio of the load to the effort applied on an object.
Given the Load = 980N and the effort applied to the load on the incline plane = 400N
MA = Load/Effort
MA = 980/400
MA = 2.45
e) Efficiency = MA/VR * 100
Efficiency = 2.45/2 * 100
Efficiency = 122.5%
If you told a policeman about a car traveling 44.704 m/s (100 mph) that was traveling in an eastward direction, you would be describing the car's ___.
Answer:
Velocity
Explanation:
You would be describing the velocity of the car.
Velocity in physics is defined as Vector quantity that describes the displacement of an object with respect to the time it takes to attain it. Displacement is the addition of direction to the speed of an object. The displacement is noted in the question, "traveling eastward". While it is stated that the car travels at 44.704 m/s. Ordinarily, it would have been tagged speed, if not for the direction added to it which makes it velocity.

A 30-µF capacitor is charged to an unknown potential V and then connected across an initially uncharged 10-uF capacitor. If the final potential difference across the .10-µF capacitor is 20 V, determine V
Answer:
V = 26.6 volts
Explanation:
Let Initial Potential Difference be V.
Charge (Q) accumulated in 30 mF Capacitor =
Q = C * V
Q= 30 * V
Now, Common Potential after connecting to uncharged 10mF capacitor in parallel = 20 Volt
Total Charge =Total Capacity * Common Potential
30 * V = ( 30 + 10) * 20
V = 26.6 volts
The unknown potential across the 30-µF capacitor is 6.67 V.
The given parameters;
initial capacitance of the capacitor, C = 30 µFunknown potential in the 30 µF capacitor = V₁potential difference in 10 µF capacitor = 20 VSince the potential difference between the two capacitors are different, the two capacitors are in series connection.
In series circuit arrangement, the quantity of charge flowing in each capacitor is the same.
[tex]Q_{30\ \mu F} = Q_{10 \ \mu F}[/tex]
[tex]Q_{10 \ \mu F} = CV = 10\times 10^{-6} \times 20 = 0.0002 \ C[/tex]
The potential difference are different and the total potential is given as;
[tex]V_{T} = V_1 + V_2\\\\V_1 = \frac{Q}{C_1} \\\\V_2 = \frac{Q}{C_2} \\\\V_1+V_2 = \frac{Q}{C_1} + \frac{Q}{C_2}\\\\V_1 + V_2 = Q(\frac{1}{C_1} + \frac{1}{C_2} )\\\\V_1 + 20 = Q(\frac{1}{C_1} + \frac{1}{C_2} )\\\\V_1+ 20 = \frac{Q(C_2+ C_1)}{C_1 C_2} \\\\V_1 = \frac{Q(C_2+ C_1)}{C_1 C_2} - 20[/tex]
[tex]V_1 = \frac{0.0002(10\times 10^{-6}\ + \ 30\times 10^{-6})}{(30\times 10^{-6}) (10\times 10^{-6})} - 20\\\\V_1 = \frac{8\times 10^{-9}}{3\times 10^{-10}} - 20\\\\V_1 = 26.67 - 20\\\\V_1 = 6.67 \ V[/tex]
Thus, the unknown potential across the 30-µF capacitor is 6.67 V.

A capacitor C is fully charged by connecting it to battery of V Volt. Then it is disconnected from battery. If the separation between the plates is halved, what will happen to (i) Charged stored by capacitor (ii) Potential difference across it. (iii) Electric filed strength between the plates. (iv) Energy stored by the capacitor.
Answer:
Explanation:
i )
When it is disconnected with the battery , the charge stored in it becomes fixed . When the plate distance becomes half , its capacitance becomes twice from C to 2C . Let charge stored in it at the time of disconnection from battery be Q . Let plate separation reduces from d to d / 2
So charged stored in it will remain unchanged .
ii )
Potential difference = charge / capacitance
in the first case potential difference = Q / C
in the second case potential difference = Q / 2C
So potential difference becomes half .
iii ) electric field = potential diff / plate separation
in the first case electric field = Q / (d x C )
in the second case electric field = 2 Q / (d x 2C)
= Q / (d x C )
So electric field remains unchanged .
iv)
energy stored in first case = Q² / 2C
In the second case energy stored = Q² / 2x2C
so energy stored becomes half .

Astronomers can now report that active star formation was going on at a time when the universe was only 20% as old as it is today. When astronomers make such a statement, how can they know what was happening inside galaxies way back then
Answer:
First, as you may know, the light travels at a given velocity.
In vaccum, this velocity is c = 3x10^8 m/s.
And we know that:
distance = velocity*time
Now, if some object (like a star ) is really far away, the light that comes from that star may take years to reach the Earth.
This means that the images that the astronomers see today, actually happened years and years ago (So the night sky is like a picture of the "past" of the universe)
Also, for example, if an astronomer sees some particular thing, he can apply a model (a "simplification" of some phenomena that is used to simplify it an explain it) and with the model, the scientist can infer the information of the given thing some time before it was seen.
The astronomers could know what was happening inside galaxies way back then by the fact that;
they examine the spectra of galaxies (or the overall colors of galaxies) with the highest redshifts they can find
Astronomers Measure the wavelength of the light that is stretched, so the light is seen as 'shifted' towards the red part of the spectrum by using spectroscopy. This measure is also called redshift.
This invokes a ray of light through a triangular prism that splits the light into various components known as spectrum.
The way the astronomers could use this concept to know what was happening in the galaxies before is by examining the spectra of galaxies that have the highest redshifts.

The ways to measure the mass and volume of irregular object
Answer:
When we have irregular objects, it may become very hard to calculate the volume of the object, as we actually can not use any simple equation to find it.
The mass is less tricky, just find a scale and wheight it, now we know the mass of the irregular object.
One way to measure the volume of the object is using water... how we do it?
Get some recipient with water, measure the height of the water.
Introduce your object into the water and totally submerge it, now the level of the water will rise. This is because as you introduce the object under the water, you are displacing up a given volume of water that has the same volume as the irregular object.
Now that you know the height of the water before and after you put your object, you can easily calculate the volume of water displaced, and that will be the volume of the object (the tricky part may be totally submerging the object if, for example, is wood and it floats, here you can use a thin wire to push it down but it will affect a little bit the measures.)

2. Question is incomplete
3. scatterplot
Explanation:
1. The only thing done differently in this experiment is the type of material used in making the boxes, hence the experiment must be about that. Before proceeding to answering this question, we must have this at the back of our minds.
We can gather from the experiment that the boxes are of the same size and were subjected to sunlight for an hour (the same time duration for both). Hence, the temperature of the air inside the box will only be affected by the type of material the box is made of since the boxes have the same size and were subjected to sunlight for the same duration.
From the options provided, the best description for this experiment is; to relate the type of box material to the temperature of the air within the box.
2. The question is incomplete. The value for speed/velocity needed to calculate the average time is missing.
However, the formula needed here is velocity = distance ÷ time
3. There are two variables in this experiment; distance and time
The type of graph that shows two variables on it (of the options provided) is the scatterplot.

You are hiking in a canyon and you notice an echo. You decide to let out a yell and notice it took 2 seconds before you heard the echo of your yell. How far away is the canyon wall that reflected your yell
Answer:
d = 343 m
Explanation:
Given that,
You notice that an echo took 2 seconds before you heard the echo of your yell.
We need to find that how far away is the canyon wall that reflected your yell. It means we need to find the distance.
The distance covered by an object is given by :
d = v × t
v is speed of sound in air, v = 343 m/s
The sound took 1 s to reach the wall and 1 s back to you.
It means that,
d = 343 × 1
d = 343 m
So, canyon will reflect your yell at a distance of 343 m

The car slows down with constant acceleration for 3.0\,\text m3.0m3, point, 0, start text, m, end text until it comes to a stop. How long does it take the car to slide to a stop?
Answer:
It took the car 3 second to come to full stop
Explanation:
When the car is driving to the right at a speed of 2 m/s, and suddenly brakes giving the car a constant negative acceleration making it travel 3 meters after it stops, we can use the following kinematic equation to solve for the acceleration applied by the brakes:
[tex]v=v_0-a\,t\\0=2-a\,t\\a=\frac{2}{t}[/tex]
and we use this result in the following kinematic equation for the distance traveled to find the time it took it to stop:
[tex]x-x_0=v_0\,t-\frac{1}{2} a\,\,t^2\\3=2\,t -\frac{1}{2} (\frac{2}{t}) \,\,t^2\\3=2\,t-t\\3=t[/tex]
therefore, it took the car 3 seconds to come to a full stop.
A concave mirror has a radius of curvature of 80cm. If the real image of an object is formed at 1m, how far from the mirror is the object?
Answer:
66.7 cm
Explanation:
The focal length is half the radius of curvature, or f = 40 cm.
The image is real, so i = +100 cm.
The distance to the object is therefore:
1/o + 1/f = 1/i
1/o + 1/40 = 1/100
o = -66.7 cm
The object is 66.7 cm left of the mirror.
anyone can solve these numerical please.
Explanation:
2. Sum the torques about the fulcrum.
(450 N) (2 m) − (350 N) x = 0
x = 2.57 m
3. Sum the torques about the fulcrum.
(3600 N) (0.20 m) − F (0.90 m) = 0
F = 800 N
Mechanical advantage is the ratio between the load force and effort force.
MA = 3600 N / 800 N
MA = 4.5
Velocity ratio is the mechanical advantage divided by efficiency. Assuming the lever is 100% efficient:
VR = 4.5 / 1
VR = 4.5
4. Mechanical advantage is the ratio between the load force and effort force.
MA = 900 N / 600 N
MA = 1.5
The velocity ratio is the distance moved by the effort divided by the distance moved by the load. For a 3 pulley system, VR = 3.
Efficiency is mechanical advantage divided by velocity ratio.
e = 1.5 / 3
e = 0.50
5. Sum the torques about the fulcrum.
(-300 N) (0.10 m) + F (0.03 m) = 0
F = 1000 N

Sound waves move the fastest through which medium?
Answer:
Sound travels fastest through solids.
Explanation:
This is because molecules in a solid medium are much closer together than those in a liquid or gas, allowing sound waves to travel more quickly through it. In fact, sound waves travel over 17 times faster through steel than through air.
Sound waves move the fastest through the solid. The speed of the sound wave in the liquid and gas is low,
What is sound wave?A sound wave is produced when a medium begins to vibrate. When an entity vibrates, a pressure wave is formed, which causes sound.
Solids transmit sound the fastest. Because the molecules in a solid medium are much closer together than in a liquid or gas, sound waves can move through it much faster.
Hence, sound waves move the fastest through the solid.

Two mass m1 and m2 lie on a frictionless surface. Between the two masses is a compressed spring, with spring constant k. The system is held in place. At time t=0 the blocks are released. The blocks move off in opposite directions with velocities v1 and v2. how much was the spring compressed?
Answer:
The spring was compressed the following amount:
[tex]\Delta x=\sqrt{ \frac{m_1\,v_1^2+ m_2\,v_2^2}{k} }[/tex]
Explanation:
Use conservation of energy between initial and final state, considering that the surface id frictionless, and there is no loss in thermal energy due to friction. the total initial energy is the potential energy of the compressed spring (by an amount [tex]\Delta x[/tex]), and the total final energy is the addition of the kinetic energies of both masses:
