Honeybees acquire a charge while flying due to friction with the air. A 100 mg bee with a charge of 33 pC experiences an electric force in the earth's electric field, which is typically 100 N/C, directed downward.
1. What is the ratio of the electric force on the bee to the bee's weight?
2. What electric field strength would allow the bee to hang suspended in the air?
3. What electric field direction would allow the bee to hang suspended in the air?
Answer:
A) 3.367 × 10^(-6)
B) 2.97 × 10^(7) N/C
C) Upwards
Explanation:
We are given;
Mass of bee; m = 100 mg = 100 × 10^(-6) kg
Charge on bee;q=33 pC = 33 × 10^(-12)C
Electric field strength; E = 100 N/C
A) Formula for weight of bee; W = mg = 100 × 10^(-6) × 9.8 = 9.8 × 10^(-4) N
Electric force on Bee; F = qE = 33 × 10^(-12) × 100 = 33 × 10^(-10) N
ratio of the electric force on the bee to the bee's weight; F/W = (33 × 10^(-10))/(9.8 × 10^(-4)) = 3.367 × 10^(-6)
B) For the bee to be suspended in the air, it means the weight of the bee must be equal to the electric force. Thus;
mg = qE
100 × 10^(-6) × 9.8 = 33 × 10^(-12) × E
E = (100 × 10^(-6) × 9.8)/(33 × 10^(-12))
E = 2.97 × 10^(7) N/C
C) From Newton's law, sum of forces = 0.
Thus;
F_n + F + W = 0
Where F is the normal force.
Thus;
F_n = -(F + W)
F_n = - ((33 × 10^(-10)) + (9.8 × 10^(-4)))
F_n = -9.8 × 10^(-4) N
Thus, applied electric field is;
E_a = F_n/q = (-9.8 × 10^(-4))/(33 × 10^(-12)) = -2.97 × 10^(7) N/C
This is negative and so it means the direction will be opposite the Earth's electric filed which is upwards.

The human ear can respond to an extremely large range of intensities - the quietest sound the ear can hear is smaller than 10-20 times the threshold which causes damage after brief exposure. If you could measure distances over the same range with a single instrument, and the smallest distance you could measure was 1 mm, what would the largest be, in kilometers?
Answer:
the largest distance we can measure is 10¹⁴ km
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Threshold hearing = 10⁻²⁰
smallest distance measured = 1 mm
Largest distance measured will be;
⇒ ( threshold hearing )⁻¹ × smallest distance
= ( 1 / 10⁻²⁰ ) × 1 mm
= 10²⁰ × 1mm
= 10²⁰ mm
we know that; 1000 mm = 10⁶ km
Largest distance = ( 10²⁰ / 10⁶ ) km
= 10¹⁴ km
Therefore, the largest distance we can measure is 10¹⁴ km

What is air
A. A Buchner substance
B. A compound
C. An element
D. A mixture
Air is classified as a mixture. Option D is the correct answer.
Air is a combination of different gases, primarily nitrogen (about 78%), oxygen (about 21%), and small amounts of other gases such as carbon dioxide, argon, and trace elements. These gases are not chemically bonded to each other, but rather exist together in the same space. Option D is the correct answer.
In a mixture, the substances involved retain their individual properties and can be separated by physical means. This is true for air as well. The gases in air can be separated through processes like fractional distillation or filtration. It's important to note that air also contains other components such as water vapor, dust particles, and pollutants, which can vary in concentration depending on the location and environmental conditions. These components further contribute to the complex nature of air as a mixture.

Here, g = 9.8 [tex]m/s^2[/tex] , a = 3.60 [tex]m/s^2[/tex] , θ = 27°
Therefore,
[tex]$\mu_k mg \cos \theta = mg \sin \theta - ma$[/tex]
[tex]$\mu_k mg \cos \theta = m(g \sin \theta - a)$[/tex]
[tex]$\mu_k g \cos \theta = (g \sin \theta - a)$[/tex]

a system absorb 500 J of heat and the same time 400J of work is done one the system find change in internal enery ?
Answer:
+ 900 J
Explanation:
Since the total energy change ΔE = internal energy change ΔU since there is no change in kinetic and potential energy,
ΔE = ΔU
ΔE = Q - W where Q = heat absorbed by system and W = work done by system
Now since the system absorbs 500 J of heat, Q = + 500 J and work of 400 J is done on the system, W = -400 J
So, the values of the variables into the equation, we have
ΔE = Q - W
ΔE = + 500 J - (-400 J)
ΔE = + 500 J + 400 J
ΔE = + 900 J
So, the internal energy change, ΔE = + 900 J

a 50kg skater on level ice, has built up her speed to 30km/h. how far will she coast before sliding friction dissipates her energy?
Answer:
belpw
Explanation:
The distance prior to the sliding friction dispersing her energy would be:
- The distance will remain unaffected by the sliding friction i.e. 354m
As we know, When Sliding friction dissolves her energy, leading her Kinetic Energy to turn 0 on coming to the state of rest. So,
[tex]1/2 mv^2 - 1/2 mu^2 = -W[/tex] (∵ Work in -ve denotes it is done opposite to friction)
Given that,
m(mass) [tex]= 50 kg[/tex]
v(velocity) [tex]= 30 km/hr[/tex] or [tex]8.33 m/s[/tex]
The coefficient of Kinetic Friction [tex]= 0.01[/tex]
g(gravitational force) [tex]= 9.8 m/s^2[/tex]
Initial Velocity(u) [tex]= 30[/tex] × [tex]1000/3600 m/s[/tex]
[tex]= 8.33 m/s[/tex]
Now by employing the provided values,
[tex]F =[/tex] μ[tex]mg[/tex]
[tex]= (0.01) (50) (9.8)[/tex]
[tex]= 4.9[/tex]
∵ [tex]F = 4.9 N[/tex]
By using the above expression, we will find the distance;
[tex]1/2 mv^2 - 1/2 mu^2 = -W[/tex]
⇒ [tex]1/2 (50) (0)^2 - 1/2 (50) (8.33)^2 = -4.9(S)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]1734.7225 = 4.9S[/tex]
⇒ [tex]S = 1734.7225/4.9[/tex]
∵ [tex]S = 354 m[/tex]
Because [tex]1/2 mv^2 - 1/2 mu^2 = -W[/tex] [tex]= -[/tex] μmgS
⇒ [tex]S = (u^2 - v^2)[/tex]/2μ[tex]g[/tex]
Thus, the distance will remain unaffected by the sliding friction i.e. 354m

Assuming the earth is a uniform sphere of mass M and radius R, show that the acceleration of fall at the earth's surface is given by g = Gm/R2 . What is the acceleration of a satellite moving in a circular orbit round the earth of radius 2R
Explanation:
The weight of an object on the surface of the earth is equal to the gravitational force exerted by the earth on the object.
[tex]W=F_G[/tex]
[tex]mg = G \dfrac{mM}{R^2}[/tex]
which gives us an expression for the acceleration due to gravity g as

time = t = 5 seconds
initial velocity = u = 14 m/s
Unknown is distance = s = ?
Use equation: s = ut + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] at²
Substitute all the known values inside the equation:
s = (14*5) + 0.5 * 3.5 * 5²
s = 70 + 43.75 = 113.75 m
The car travels 113.75 metres.
Consider the heaviest box of 150 lb that you can push at constant speed across a level floor, where the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.45, and estimate the maximum horizontal force that you can apply to the box. A box sits on a ramp that is inclined at an angle of 60.0° above the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp is 0.45.
If you apply the same magnitude force, now parallel to the ramp, that you applied to the box on the floor, what is the heaviest box (in pounds) that you can push up the ramp at constant speed? (In both cases assume you can give enough extra push to get the box started moving.)
Maximum horizontal force that can be applied on the box is 300.32 N.
Mass of the heaviest box that can be pushed on the ramp at constant speed is 105.16 pound.
What is meant by kinetic friction ?Kinetic friction is defined as the opposing force exerted by the surface on an object in contact with it, when there is relative motion between the two surfaces.
Here,
Mass of the box, m = 150 lb = 68.1 kg
Coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.45
Maximum horizontal force that can be applied on the box is the kinetic frictional force. Frictional force,
F(k) = μmg
F(k) = 0.45 x 68.1 x 9.8
F(k) = 300.32 N
Now, the box sits on a ramp inclined at 60°
Coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.45
The net force here acting on the box placed in the ramp is due to the kinetic frictional force and the weight of the box.
So,
Frictional force, F(k)' = μmgcosθ
F(k)' = 0.45 x M x 9.8 x cos 60
F(k)' = 2.2M
Weight of the box acting horizontally,
W = Mgsinθ
W = M x 9.8 x sin60
W = 8.5M
Therefore, net force,
Fn = W - F(k)'
Fn = 8.5M - 2.2M
Fn = 6.3M
The total force acting on the box is
F = F(k) - Fn
ma = 300.32 - 6.3M
Since, the box is moving with constant speed, the acceleration, a = 0
Therefore,
300.32 - 6.3M = 0
6.3M = 300.32
M = 300.32/6.3
M = 47.7 kg = 105.16 pound
Hence,
Maximum horizontal force that can be applied on the box is 300.32 N.
Mass of the heaviest box that can be pushed on the ramp at constant speed is 105.16 pound.

Hooke's law describes a certain light spring of unstretched length 38.0 cm. When one end is attached to the top of a door frame and a 6.00-kg object is hung from the other end, the length of the spring is 42.0 cm.
a. Find its spring constant.
b. The load and the spring are taken down. Two people pull in opposite directions on the ends of the spring, each with a force of 150 N. Find the length of the spring in this situation.
Answer:
(a) 1470 N/m
(b) 48.2 m
Explanation:
Applying,
(a) F = ke.................... Equation 1
Where F = force applied to the spring, k = spring constant, e = extension
make k the subject of the equation
k = F/e............... Equation 2
But,
F = mg............. Equation 3
Where m = mass, g = acceleration due to gravity
Substitute equation 3 into equation 2
k = mg/e.............. Equation 4
From the question,
Given: m = 6 kg, e = 42-38 = 4 cm = 0.04 m
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute these values into equation 4
k = (6×9.8)/0.04
k = 1470 N/m
(b) Consider the end of the spring to the left which exert a force to the right
Then,
e = F/k............. Equation 5
Given: F = 150 N, k = 1470 N/m
Substitute these values into equation 5
e = 150/1470
e = 0.102 m
Hence the length of the spring is
L = 0.38+0.102 = 0.482 cm = 48.2 m

Where T = period, m = mass on the spring, k = spring constant, π = pie.
make m the subject of the equation
m = T²k/4π²................. Equation 2
From the question,
Given: T = 3.45 s, k = 72.0 N/m, π = 3.14
Substitute these values into equation 2
m = (3.45²×72)/(4×3.14²)
m = 21.73 kg.
Hence the mass should be 21.73 kg
Match the atmospheric energy transfer process that best fits each of the following scenarios:
Warming of the Earth's surface on a sunny day
[ Choose ] convection conduction radiation advection
On a sunny afternoon, you watch cumulus clouds forming
[ Choose ] convection conduction radiation advection
A very shallow layer of air in contact with the ground is warmed
[ Choose ] convection conduction radiation advection
A south wind carries warm air into the central United States
[ Choose ] convection conduction radiation advection
Answer:
a) RADIATION, b) CONVECTION, c) CONDUCTION, d) CONVECTION
Explanation:
In the heating processes there can be three types: conduction, convention and radiation.
The conduction process occurs when the movement of atoms or thermal agitation of molecules creates the transfer of thermal energy.
The convention process occurs when there is a movement of matter creating the transfer of energy
The process of Radiation an electromagnetic wave indexes on a material and is absorbed, creating the process of energy transfer.
Now let's examine each situation>
a)Warming of the Earth's surface on a sunny day
in this case the sunlight heats the earth as it is absorbed, which is why it is a RADIATION process
b) On a sunny afternoon, you watch cumulus clouds forming
in this case the nines rise from the surface, since it is a moving mass, the process is CONVECTION
c) A very shallow layer of air in contact with the ground is warmed
in this case the thermal movement of the layer molecules heat the earth, for which the process of CONDUCTION
d) A south wind carries warm air into the central United States
As we have a movement of a mass of matter, the process is CONVECTION.
