Answer:
The fraction of kinetic energy to the total energy is [tex]\frac{K}{T}=\frac{8}{9}[/tex].
Explanation:
displacement is one third of the amplitude.
Let the amplitude is A.
x= A/3
The kinetic energy of the body executing SHM is
[tex]K = 0.5 mw^2(A^2 - x^2)\\\\K = 0.5 m w^2 \left ( A^2 -\frac{A^2}{9} \right )\\\\K = 0.5 mw^2\times \frac{8A^2}{9}......(1)[/tex]
The total energy is
[tex]T =0.5 mw^2A^2 ..... (2)[/tex]
Divide (1) by (2)
[tex]\frac{K}{T}=\frac{8}{9}[/tex]
A spinning wheel having a mass of 20 kg and a diameter of 0.5 m is positioned to rotate about its vertical axis with a constant angular acceleration, a of 6 rad/s If the initial angular velocity is 1.5 rad/s, determine The maximum angular velocity and linear velocity of the wheel after 1 complete revolution.
Answer:
ωf = 8.8 rad/s
v = 2.2 m/s
Explanation:
We will use the third equation of motion to find the maximum angular velocity of the wheel:
[tex]2\alpha \theta = \omega_f^2 -\omega_I^2[/tex]
where,
α = angular acceleration = 6 rad/s²
θ = angular displacemnt = 1 rev = 2π rad
ωf = max. final angular velocity = ?
ωi = initial angular velocity = 1.5 rad/s
Therefore,
[tex]2(6\ rad/s^2)(2\pi\ rad)=\omega_f^2-(1.5\ rad/s)^2\\\omega_f^2=75.4\ rad/s^2+2.25\ rad/s^2\\\omega_f = \sqrt{77.65\ rad/s^2}[/tex]
ωf = 8.8 rad/s
Now, for linear velocity:
v = rω = (0.25 m)(8.8 rad/s)
v = 2.2 m/s

In the graph below, why does the graph stop increasing after 30 seconds?
A. The hydrogen gas is absorbing heat to undergo a phase change.
B. A catalyst needs to be added to increase the amount of hydrogen produced.
C. No more hydrogen can be produced because all of the reactants have become products at this point.
D. It has reached the maximum amount of product it can make at this temperature. The temperature would need to increase to produce more.
Answer:
The answer is "Option C".
Explanation:
It's evident from the figure below that after thirty minutes, not no more hydrogen can be created because all of the reactants have converted into products.
hydrogen gas created in cm cubes per period x = 20 seconds, y = 45 centimeters squared, and so on.
A reaction's terminus (the graph's flat line) indicates that no further products are being created during the reaction.
The displacement x of a particle varies with time t as x = 4t 2 -15t + 25. Find the position,
velocity and acceleration of the particle at t = 0. When will the velocity of the particle becomes
zero? Can we call the motion of the particle as one with uniform acceleration?
Answer:
x = 4 t^2 - 15 t + 25 displacement of particle
dx / dt = 8 t - 15 velocity of particle
d^2x / dt^2 = 8 acceleration of particle
If 8 t -15 = o then t = 8 / 15
Since acceleration is a constant 8 then motion has uniform acceleratkon
A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of 1 mi and a speed of 480 mi/h passes directly over a radar station. Find the rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing when it is 3 mi away from the station.
Answer:
First remember that the distance between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by the equation:
[tex]d = \sqrt{(a - c)^2 + (b - d)^2}[/tex]
Now let's define the position of the radar as:
(0mi, 0mi)
Then we can write the position of the plane as:
(480mi/h*t, 1mi)
where t is time in hours.
Then we can write the distance equation as:
[tex]d(t) = \sqrt{(480\frac{mi}{h}*t - 0mi)^2 + (1mi -0mi)^2 } \\\\d(t) = \sqrt{(480\frac{mi}{h}*t )^2 + (1mi)^2 }[/tex]
Now we want to get:
the rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing when it is 3 mi away from the station.
So first we want to find the value of t such that:
d(3) = 3mi
We will look at the positive value of t, because at this point the plane is increasing its distance to the station.
[tex]3mi = \sqrt{(480\frac{mi}{h}*t )^2 + (1mi)^2 }\\\\(3mi)^2 = (480\frac{mi}{h}*t )^2 + (1mi)^2\\\\9mi^2 - 1mi^2 = (480\frac{mi}{h}*t )^2\\\\8mi^2 = (230,400 mi^2/h^2)*t^2\\\\\\\sqrt{\frac{8mi^2}{230,400 mi^2/h^2} } = t = 0.0059 h[/tex]
The rate of change when the plane is 3 mi away from the station is:
d'(0.0059h)
remember that:
d'(t) = dd(t)/dt
We can write:
d(t) = h( g(t) )
such that:
h(x) = √x
g(t) = (480mi/h*t)^2 + (1mi)^2
then:
d'(t) = h'(g(t))*g'(t)
This is:
[tex]d'(t) = \frac{dd(t)}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{2*t*480mi/h}{\sqrt{(480mi/h*t)^2 + (1mi)^2} }[/tex]
The rate of change at t = 0.0059h is then:
[tex]d'(0.0059h) = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{2*0.0059h*(480mi/h)^2}{\sqrt{(480mi/h*0.0059h)^2 + (1mi)^2} } =452.6 mi/h^2[/tex]

The velocity in the horizontal direction will not change. Then the horizontal speed will be 8.133 meters per second.
What is the projectile motion?An item or particle that is propelled in a gravitational influence, such as from the crust of the Ground, and moves along a curved route while solely being affected by gravity is said to be in projectile motion.
A ball thrown horizontally from a point 24 m above the ground, strikes the ground after traveling horizontally a distance of 18 m.
The initial velocity is zero. Then the time taken to reach the ground is given as,
h = ut + 1/2at²
- 24 = 0×t + 1/2 (-9.8)t²
24 = 4.9t²
t² = 4.8979
t = 2.213 seconds
Then the horizontal speed is given as,
v = 18 / 2.213
v = 8.133 meters per second
The velocity in the horizontal direction will not change. Then the horizontal speed will be 8.133 meters per second.

A baseball pitcher brings his arm forward during a pitch, rotating the forearm about the elbow. If the velocity of the ball in the pitcher's hand is 34.0 m/s and the ball is 0.310 m from the elbow joint, what is the angular velocity (in rad/s) of the forearm
Answer:
[tex]\omega=109.67\ rad/s[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that,
The speed of the ball, u = 34 m/s
The ball is 0.310 m from the elbow joint.
We need to find the angular velocity (in rad/s) of the forearm.
We know that,
[tex]v=r\omega\\\\\omega=\dfrac{v}{r}\\\\\omega=\dfrac{34}{0.31}\\\\\omega=109.67\ rad/s[/tex]
So, the required angular velocity of the forearm is 109.67 rad/s.

What is the approximate radius of an equipotential spherical surface of 30 V about a point charge of +15 nC if the potential at an infinite distance from the surface is zero?
Answer:
V = k Q / R potential at distance R for a charge Q
R = k Q / V
R = 9 * 10E9 * 15 * 10E-9 / 30 = 9 * 15 / 30 = 4.5 m
Note: Our equation says that if R if infinite then V must be zero.
A free undamped spring/mass system oscillates with a period of 4 seconds. When 10 pounds are removed from the spring, the system then has a period of 2 seconds. What was the weight of the original mass on the spring? (Round your answer to one decimal place.)
Answer:
13.3 pounds.
Explanation:
For a spring of constant K, with an attached object of mass M, the period can be written as:
T = 2*π*√(M/K)
Where π = 3.14
First, we know that the period is 4 seconds, then we have:
4s = (2*π)*√(M/K)
We know that if the mass is reduced by 10lb, the period becomes 2s.
Then the new mass of the object will be: (M - 10lb)
Then the period equation becomes:
2s = (2*π)*√((M-10lb)/K)
So we have two equations:
4s = (2*π)*√(M/K)
2s = (2*π)*√((M-10lb)/K)
We want to solve this for M.
First, we need to isolate K in one of the equations.
Let's isolate K in the first one:
4s = (2*π)*√(M/K)
(4s/2*π) = √(M/K)
(2s/π)^2 = M/K
K = M/(2s/π)^2 = M*(π/2s)^2
Now we can replace it in the other equation.
2s = (2*π)*√((M-10lb)/K)
First, let's simplify the equation:
2s/(2*π) = √((M-10lb)/K)
1s/π = √((M-10lb)/K)
(1s/π)^2 = ((M-10lb)/K
K*(1s/π)^2 = M - 10lb
Now we can use the equation: K = M*(π/2s)^2
then we get:
K*(1s/π)^2 = M - 10lb
(M*(π/2s)^2)*(1s/π)^2 = M - 10lb
M/4 = M - 10lb
10lb = M - M/4
10lb = (3/4)*M
10lb*(4/3) = M
13.3 lb = M

An object moves in a direction parallel to its length with a velocity that approaches the velocity of light. The length of this object, as measured by a stationary observer:________
a. approaches infinity.
b. approaches zero.
c. increases slightly.
d. does not change.
Answer:
b. approaches zero.
Explanation:
The phenomenon is known as length contraction.
Length contraction is a result of Einstein's special theory of relativity. This theory states that an observer in an inertial frame of reference will observe a decrease in the length of any moving object placed at another inertial frame of reference.
let the length of the train = L
Let the length observed when the train is in motion = L₀
Apply Einstein's special theory of relativity;
[tex]L_0 = L \times \sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2} } \\\\where;\\\\v \ is \ the \ velocity \ of \ the \ train\\\\c \ is \ the \ speed \ of \ light\\\\[/tex]
from the equation above, when v = 0, the length observed is equal to the initial length of the train. (L₀ = L)
As the velocity of the train (v) approaches the speed of light (c), the length of the train observed (L₀) becomes smaller than the initial length of the train (L). (L₀ < L)
Eventually, when v equals c, we will have a square root of zero (0), and the length observed will become zero. (L₀ = 0)
Thus, the length of this object, as measured by a stationary observer approaches zero
A fan that is rotating at 960 rev/s is turned off. It makes 1500 revolutions before it comes to a stop. a) What was its angular acceleration(assuming it was constant)
Answer:
α = 1930.2 rad/s²
Explanation:
The angular acceleration can be found by using the third equation of motion:
[tex]2\alpha \theta=\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2[/tex]
where,
α = angular acceleration = ?
θ = angular displacement = (1500 rev)(2π rad/1 rev) = 9424.78 rad
ωf = final angular speed = 0 rad/s
ωi = initial angular speed = (960 rev/s)(2π rad/1 rev) = 6031.87 rad/s
Therefore,
[tex]2\alpha(9424.78\ rad) = (0\ rad/s)^2-(6031.87\ rad/s)^2\\\\\alpha = -\frac{(6031.87\ rad/s)^2}{(2)(9424.78\ rad)}[/tex]
α = - 1930.2 rad/s²

Environmental Concerns
1. release of greenhouse gases
2. release of gases that cause acid rain
3. release of excess heat
4. depletion of solar energy
5. depletion of geothermal energy
6. flooding of land
Which of the above environmental concerns are associated with the production of electricity?
Select one:
O A. 2, 3, and 4
O B. 1, 2, 3, and 6
O C. 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6
O D. 1, 3, and 5
Answer:
1.Emitted primarily through the burning of fossil fuels (oil, natural gas, and coal), solid waste, and trees and wood products. Changes in land use also play a role. Deforestation and soil degradation add carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, while forest regrowth takes it out of the atmosphere.
2.Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain.
3.Untreated, heat exhaustion can lead to heatstroke, a life-threatening condition that occurs when your core body temperature reaches 104 F (40 C) or higher. Heatstroke requires immediate medical attention to prevent permanent damage to your brain and other vital organs that can result in death.
4.The loss of solar energy in passing through the atmospheric layers is called the atmospheric deflection. ... The longer the path traversed, the greater the amount of radiant energy depleted. Various processes whereby heat energy is lost through the atmosphere are known as scattering, diffusion, absorption, and reflection.
5.Geothermal energy is renewable because the Earth has retained a huge amount of the heat energy that was generated during formation of the planet. In addition, heat is continuously produced by decay of radioactive elements within the Earth. The amount of heat within the Earth, and the amount that is lost though natural processes (e.g. volcanic activity, conduction/radiation to the atmosphere), are much, much more than the amount of heat lost through geothermal energy production. At any one geothermal field, however, the temperature of the geothermal reservoir or the fluid levels/fluid pressure in the reservoir may decrease over time as fluids are produced and energy is extracted. Produced fluids can be re-injected to maintain pressures, although this may further cool down the reservoir if care is not taken. Over time, it is commonly necessary to drill additional wells in order to maintain energy production as temperatures and/or reservoir fluid pressures decline.
6.Floods, Floodplains, and Flood-Prone Areas. ... Flooding is a result of heavy or continuous rainfall exceeding the absorptive capacity of soil and the flow capacity of rivers, streams, and coastal areas. This causes a watercourse to overflow its banks onto adjacent lands.
The environmental concerns associated with the production of electricity are the release of greenhouse gases, the release of gases that cause acid rain, the release of excess heat, the flooding of land, and the depletion of geothermal energy so, option C is correct.
What is electricity?The presence or movement of charged particles is electricity. The movement of electrons through a circuit is known as an electric current. The accumulation of electrons on an insulator causes static electricity.
Mostly released when solid trash, trees, and wood products are burned, along with fossil fuels (coal, gas, and oil).
Land use changes also have an impact. Carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere by deforestation and soil erosion, while it is removed from it by forest regeneration.

A wire, 1.0 m long, with a mass of 90 g, is under tension. A transverse wave is propagated on the wire, for which the frequency is 890 Hz, the wavelength is .10m, and the amplitude is 6.5 mm. The tension in the line, in SI units, is closest to
Answer:
T = 712.9 N
Explanation:
First, we will find the speed of the wave:
v = fλ
where,
v = speed of the wave = ?
f = frequency = 890 Hz
λ = wavelength = 0.1 m
Therefore,
v = (890 Hz)(0.1 m)
v = 89 m/s
Now, we will find the linear mass density of the wire:
[tex]\mu = \frac{m}{L}[/tex]
where,
μ = linear mass density of wie = ?
m = mass of wire = 90 g = 0.09 kg
L = length of wire = 1 m
Therefore,
[tex]\mu = \frac{0.09\ kg}{1\ m}[/tex]
μ = 0.09 kg/m
Now, the tension in wire (T) will be:
T = μv² = (0.09 kg/m)(89 m/s)²
T = 712.9 N

You are cooking breakfast for yourself and a friend using a 1,140-W waffle iron and a 510-W coffeepot. Usually, you operate these appliances from a 110-V outlet for 0.500 h each day. (a) At 12 cents per kWh, how much do you spend to cook breakfast during a 30.0 day period
Answer:
The cost is 297 cents.
Explanation:
Power of iron, P = 1140 W
Power of coffee pot, P' = 510 W
Voltage, V = 110 V
Time, t = 0.5 h each day
Cost = 12 cents per kWh
(a) Total energy
E = P x t + P' x t
E = 1140 x 0.5 x 60 x 60 + 510 x 0.5 x 60 x 60
E = 2052000 + 918000 = 2970000 J
1 kWh = 3.6 x 10^6 J
E = 0.825 kWh
For 30 days
E' = 0.825 x 30 = 24.75 kWh
So, the cost is
= 12 x 24.75 = 297 cents
the current through a wire is measured as the potential difference is varied what is the wire resistance
Answer:
Resistance, R = 0.02 Ohms
Explanation:
Ohm's law states that at constant temperature, the current flowing in an electrical circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied across the two points and inversely proportional to the resistance in the electrical circuit.
Mathematically, Ohm's law is given by the formula;
V = IR
Where;
V is the voltage or potential difference.
I is the current.
R is the resistance.
From the attachment, we would pick the following values on the graph of current against voltage;
Voltage, V = 0.5 V
Current = 25 A
To find resistance;
R = V/I
R = 0.5/2.5
Resistance, R = 0.02 Ohms
Note:
Resistance (R) is the inverse of slope i.e change in current with respect to change in voltage.
True or False: The forces applied by our muscles on our bones are usually several times larger than the forces we exert on the outside world with our limbs.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
This is because of the point where the forces are applied by our muscles and
the angle they have about the bones. Take for example the diagram I uploaded.
If we do a free body diagram and a sum of torques, we would get that:
[tex]F_{muscle}sin \theta r1 - mg r2 = 0[/tex]
In this case, mg is the same in magnitude as the force made by the hand to hold the ball, so:
[tex]F_{muscle}sin \theta r_{1} - F_{hand} r_{2} = 0[/tex]
If we solve the equation for the force of the muscle we would get that:
[tex]F_{muscle}=\frac{F_{hand}r_{2}}{r_{1}sin \theta}[/tex]
Since r2 is greater than r1 and the sin function can only return values that are less than 1, this means that the force of the muscle is much greater than the force used by the hand to hold the weight.
Let's use some standard values to prove this, let's say that r1=10cm, r2=35cm and theta=60 degrees. When inputing the values into the equation we get:
[tex]F_{muscle}=\frac{F_{hand}(35cm)}{(10cm)sin (60^{o})}[/tex]
which yields:
[tex]F_{muscle}=4.04 F_{hand}[/tex]
so in this example, the force made by the muscle is 4 times as big as the force exerted by the hand.

I guess that we want to find how much money you get each week.
We know that the job pays $8.60 per hour.
We know that you work 20 hours per week.
Then the gross pay (the total money that you earn) in a week is 20 times $8.60, or:
20*$8.60 = $172.
Now we know that your employer witholds:
10% + 7.65% + 5% = 22.65%
Then your employer withholds 22.65% of your gross pay.
if the 100% of your gross pay is $172
Then the 22.65% will be:
(22.65%/100%)*$172 = 0.2265*$172 = $38.96
This means that your employer withholds $38.96 of your weekly gross pay.
Then each week you get:
$172 - $38.96 = $133.04
