Why do you fall forward when you stub your toe on a chair? Explain in terms.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer & Explanation:

This can be explained with Newton's first law, Inertia - if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.  

When you walk, your entire body is in a forwarding motion. If your toe hits an object (in this case, a chair), only this unfortunate toe will stop while the rest of your body continues its forwarding motion, resulting in you falling forward.

At high elevations or high latitudes, some of the water that falls on land does not immediately soak in , run off, evaporate or transpire. where is the water being temporarily stored?

Answers

Answer:

The water is stored in ice sheets and as snow

Explanation:

Temperature reduces with an increase in altitudes. The standard laps rate is 6.5°C per 1,000 m gained in elevation

At very high elevations, therefore,  the air is usually very cold such that when an elevation of 4,500 meters is reached at the equator, it is possible to observe snowfall and the water remain temporarily stored on the surface of the mountain as ice and snow

A 5kg particle moving at a speed of 10m/s to the right makes an elastic collision with a wall and rebounds backward calculate the magnitude of the impulse of the body

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of the impulse experienced by the particle is 100 kg.m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the particle, m = 5 kg

initial velocity of the particle, v₁ = 10 m/s

assuming the particle rebounds with same velocity backwards, v₂ = - 10 m/s

The impulse experienced by the particle is the change in linear momentum;

J = ΔP = mv₁ - mv₂

J = m(v₁ - v₂)

J = 5 (10 - (-10))

J = 5 (10 + 10)

J = 5(20)

J = 100 kg.m/s

Therefore, the magnitude of the impulse experienced by the particle is 100 kg.m/s.

Two charges, one with a charge of +10.0 x 10-6 C, the other with a charge of -3 x 10-6 C exert a force on each other with a magnitude of 1.7 Newtons on each other. Is this a repulsive or attractive force. What is the separation distance of these charges?

Answers

Answer:

b.

Explanation:

Answer:

Attractive force and r = 0.399 m

Explanation:

One charge is positive and the other charge is negative. Opposite charges attract, so there has to be a force that attracts between them.

q1 = 10.0 x 10^-6 C

q2 = -3 x 10^-6 C

F = 1.7 N

Plug those values into Coulomb's Law:

[tex]F = k\frac{q1q2}{r^{2} } \\1.7 = \frac{(9x10^{9})(10.0 x 10^{-6})(-3 x 10^{-6})}{r^{2} }[/tex]

Solve for r

r = 0.399 m

Consider two spinning tops with different radii. Both have the same linear instantaneous velocities at their edges. Which top has a smaller angular velocity? the top with the smaller radius because the radius of curvature is inversely proportional to the angular velocity the top with the smaller radius because the radius of curvature is directly proportional to the angular velocity the top with the larger radius because the radius of curvature is inversely proportional to the angular velocity The top with the larger radius because the radius of curvature is directly proportional to the angular velocity

Answers

Answer:

the top with the largest radius because the radius of curvature is inversely proportional to the angular velocity

Explanation:

Angular and linear velocity are related

         v = w r

         w = v / r

Therefore, if the linear velocity of the two is the same, the one with the smaller radius has the higher angular velocity.

When reviewing the answers, the correct one is:

the top with the largest radius because the radius of curvature is inversely proportional to the angular velocity

The top that has a smaller angular velocity is D. the top with the larger radius because the radius of curvature is directly proportional to the angular velocity.

It should be noted that the top that has a higher angular velocity will be the top with the smaller radius because the radius of curvature is inversely proportional to the angular velocity

On the other hand, since the two spinning tops have different radii while both have the same linear instantaneous velocities at their edges, then the top that has a smaller angular velocity is the top with the larger radius because the radius of curvature is directly proportional to the angular velocity.

An electromagnetic wave with frequency 65.0Hz travels in an insulating magnetic material that has dielectric constant 3.64 and relative permeability 5.18 at this frequency. The electric field has amplitude 7.20×10−3V/m. What is the wavelength of the wave?

Answers

Answer:

  The wavelength of the wave is [tex]1.06\times10^6 m[/tex]  

Explanation:

Lets calculate

We know an electromagnetic wave is propagating through an insulating magnetic material of dielectric constant K and relative permeability [tex]K_m[/tex] ,then the speed of the wave in this dielectric medium is [tex]\nu[/tex] is less than the speed of the light c and is given by a relation

               [tex]\nu=\frac{c}{\sqrt{KK_m} }[/tex]  --------- 1

In case the electromagnetic  wave propagating through the insulating magnetic material , the amplitudes of electric and  magnetic fields are related as -

             [tex]E_m_a_x= \nu B_m_a_x[/tex]

The magnitude of the 'time averaged value' of the pointing vector is called the intensity of the wave and is given by a relation

                       [tex]I = S_a_v[/tex]

                        [tex]\frac{E_m_a_xB_m_a_x}{2K_m\mu0}[/tex]----------- 3

now , we will find the speed of the propagation of an electromagnetic wave by using equation 1

[tex]\nu=\frac{c}{\sqrt{KK_m} }[/tex]

Putting the values ,

   =[tex]\nu= \frac{3.00\times10^8}{\sqrt{(3.64)(5.18)} }[/tex]

 =[tex]0.6908\times10^8m/s[/tex]

 = [tex]6.91\times10^7m/s[/tex]

Now , using this above solution , we will find the wavelength of the wave -

     [tex]\lambda=\frac{\nu}{f}[/tex]

    Putting the values from above equations -

  [tex]\frac{6.91\times10^7m/s}{65.0Hz}[/tex]

        [tex]\lambda= 1.06\times10^6 m[/tex]

Hence , the answer is [tex]\lambda= 1.06\times10^6 m[/tex]

The ancient Egyptians build their pyramids using a ramp to move the heavy blocks up. The length of the ramp was 25m and the height was 10m the weight of the block was 250kg and the effort weight is 180kg. What is the efficiency of the inclined plane

Answers

Answer:

Efficiency of the inclined plane is 56%

Explanation:

efficiency = (work output / work input) x 100%

efficiency = ([load force x load distance] x [effort force x effort distance]) x 100%

efficiency = (250 kg x 10 m) / (180 kg x 25 m) x 100%

efficiency = (2500kg/m) / (4500kg/m) x 100%

efficiency = 0.555 = 0.56 x 100%

efficiency = 56%

A pumpkin is thrown horizontally off of a building at a speed of 2.5 — and travels a horizontal distance of

12 m before hitting the ground. We can ignore air resistance.

What is the vertical velocity when it hits the ground

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a missile throwing exercise, let's find the distance

         x = v₀ₓ / t

         t = v₀ₓ / x

let's calculate

         t = 2.5 / 12

         t = 0.2083 s

as time is a scalar this is the same value for descends to the ground

         y = v_{oy} t  - 1/2 g t²    

we calculate

         v_y = 0 - 9.8 0,2083  

         v_y = - 2.04 m / s

the negative sign indicates that the speed is down

An electron and a proton are both released from rest, midway between the plates of a charged parallel-plate capacitor. The only force on each of the two particles is the force from the uniform electric field due to the capacitor. Each particle accelerates until striking one of the plates of the capacitor. (There is no gravity in this problem and we ignore the small force between the electron and the proton.) How do the final kinetic energies and final speeds (just before striking a plate) compare

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the potential difference between the middle point and one of the plate be ΔV .

electric potential energy will be lost and it will be converted into kinetic energy .

Electrical potential energy lost = Vq , where q is charge on charge particle .

For proton

ΔV× q = 1/2 M V² ( kinetic energy of proton )

where M is mass and V be final velocity of proton .

For electron

ΔV× q = 1/2 m v² ( kinetic energy of electron  )

where m is mass and v be final velocity of electron . Charges on proton and electron are same in magnitude .

As LHS of both the equation are same , RHS will also be same . That means the kinetic energy of both proton and electron will be same

1/2 M V² =  1/2 m v²

(V / v )² = ( m / M )

(V / v ) = √ ( m / M )

In other words , their velocities  are  inversely proportional to square root of their masses .

AM and FM stand for two different processes that are used to code voices and music for transmission. What does AM stand for? 1. Amplitude Modulation 2. Amplitude Mediation A​

Answers

Answer:

1. Amplitude Modulation

Explanation:

AM is an acronym for Amplitude Modulation and it's refers to a process that is typically used for coding sounds such as voices and music for transmission from one point to another.

On the other hand, FM is an acronym for frequency modulation used for the propagation and transmission of sound waves.

Basically, the two forms of modulation are used for broadcasting in radio transmission.

Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.

Generally, the most commonly used electromagnetic wave technology in telecommunications is radio waves.

Radio waves can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that has its frequency ranging from 30 GHz to 300 GHz and its wavelength between 1mm and 3000m. Therefore, radio waves are a series of repetitive valleys and peaks that are typically characterized of having the longest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum.
