Your car breaks down in the middle of nowhere. A tow truck weighing 4000 lbs. comes along and agrees to tow your car, which weighs 2000 lbs., to the nearest town. The driver of the truck attaches his cable to your car at an angle of 20 degrees to horizontal. He tells you that his cable has a strength of 500 lbs. He plans to take 10 secs to tow your car at a constant acceleration from rest in a straight line along a flat road until he reaches the maximum speed of 45 m.p.h. Can the driver carry out the plan
Answer:
F = 1010 Lb
the tension on the cable is greater than its resistance, which is why the plan is not viable
Explanation:
For this exercise we can use the kinematic relations to find the acceleration and with Newton's second law find the force to which the cable is subjected.
v = v₀ + a t
how the car comes out of rest v₀ = 0
a = v / t
let's reduce to the english system
v = 45 mph (5280 ft / 1 mile) (1h / 3600) = 66 ft / s
let's calculate
a = 66/10
a = 6.6 ft / s²
now let's write Newton's second law
X axis
Fₓ = ma
with trigonometry
cos 20 = Fₓ / F
Fₓ = F cos 20
we substitute
F cos 20 = m a
F = m a / cos20
W = mg
F = [tex]\frac{W}{g} \ \frac{a}{cos 20}[/tex]
let's calculate
F = [tex]\frac{2000}{32} \ \frac{6.6 }{cos20}[/tex](2000/32) 6.6 / cos 20
F = 1010 Lb
Under these conditions, the tension on the cable is greater than its resistance, which is why the plan is not viable.
g you hang an object of mass m on a spring with spring constant k and find that it has a period of T. If you change the spring to one that has a spring constant of 2 k, the new period is
Answer:
a) T = 2π [tex]\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }[/tex], b) T ’= [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } T[/tex]
Explanation:
a) A system formed by a mass and a spring has a simple harmonic motion with angular velocity
w² = k / m
angular velocity and period are related
w = 2π /T
we substitute
4π²/ T² = k / m
T = 2π [tex]\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }[/tex]
b) We change the spring for another with k ’= 2 k, let's find the period
T ’= 2π [tex]\sqrt{\frac{m}{k'} }[/tex]
T ’= 2π [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{m}{2k} }[/tex]
T ’= [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } T[/tex]

The rock takes 8.16s to return to its release point. Given that the elastic band provides a speed of 40m/s to the rock in 10 cm stretch.
What will be the speed of the rock?Initial speed of the rock, u = 40m/s
Final position of the rock s = 0m taking the release point as reference. The rock takes 8.16s to return to its release point. Given that the elastic band provides a speed of 40m/s to the rock in 10 cm stretch.
Nuclear energy is a useful source of power but has disadvantages. The disadvantage of nuclear energy is it produces dangerous waste.
Initial speed of the rock, u = 40m/s
Final position of the rock s = 0m taking the release point as reference
From the second equation of motion:
solving above we get:
t = 0s or t = 8.16s, t =0 seconds is neglected since it represents the initial position which is the same as the final position at t = 8.16s
So, the rock takes 8.16 seconds to return to the release point.
Therefore, The rock takes 8.16s to return to its release point. Given that the elastic band provides a speed of 40m/s to the rock in 10 cm stretch.

A train starts from rest and accelerates uniformly until it has traveled 5.6 km and acquired a forward velocity of The train then moves at a constant velocity of for 420 s. The train then slows down uniformly at until it is brought to a halt. The acceleration during the first 5.6 km of travel is closest to which of the following?
a. 0.19 m/s^2
b. 0.14 m/s^2
c. 0.16 m/s^2
d. 0.20 m/s^2
e. 0.17 m/s^2
Answer:
The acceleration during the first 5.6 km of travel is closest to 0.16 m/s²
Option c) 0.16 m/s² is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
since the train starts from rest,
Initial velocity; u = 0 m/s
final velocity; v = 42 m/s
distance covered S = 5.6 km = ( 5.6 × 1000 )m = 5600 m
acceleration a = ?
From the third equation of motion;
v² = u² + 2as
we substitute in our values
( 42 )² = ( 0 )² + [ 2 × a × 5600 ]
1764 = 0 + [ 11200 × a ]
1764 = 11200 × a
a = 1764 / 11200
a = 0.1575 ≈ 0.16 m/s² { two decimal place }
Therefore, The acceleration during the first 5.6 km of travel is closest to 0.16 m/s²
Option c) 0.16 m/s² is the correct answer.
LC-circuit of the radio receiver consists of variable capacitor (Cmin= 1 pF, Cmax=10 pF) and inductor
with inductance 1 µH. Determine the wavelength range of this radio receiver.
Answer:
the radio can tune wavelengths between 1.88 and 5.97 m
Explanation:
The signal that can be received is the one that is in resonance as the impedance of the LC circuit.
X = X_c - X_L
X = 1 / wC - w L
at the point of resonance the two impedance are equal so their sum is zero
X_c = X_L
1 / wC = w L
w² = 1 / CL
w = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{1}{CL} }[/tex]
let's look for the extreme values
C = 1 10⁻¹² F
w = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{1}{ 1 \ 10^{-12} \ 1 \ 10^{-6}} }[/tex]
w = [tex]\sqrt{1 \ 10^{18}}[/tex]
w = 10⁹ rad / s
C = 10 10⁻¹² F
w = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{1}{10 \ 10^{-12} \ 1 \ 10^{-6}} }[/tex]Ra 1/10 10-12 1 10-6
w = [tex]\sqrt{0.1 \ 10^{18}}[/tex]Ra 0.1 1018
w = 0.316 10⁹ rad / s
Now the angular velocity and the frequency are related
w = 2π f
f = w / 2π
the light velocity is
c = λ f
λ = c / f
we substitute
λ = c 2π/w
we calculate the two values
C = 1 pF
λ₁ = 3 10⁸ 2π / 10⁹
λ₁= 18.849 10⁻¹ m
λ₁ = 1.88 m
C = 10 pF
λ₂ = 3 10⁸ 2π / 0.316 10⁹
λ₂ = 59.65 10⁻¹ m
λ₂ = 5.97 m
so the radio can tune wavelengths between 1.88 and 5.97 m

Explanation:
The energy of the photon is given by:
[tex] E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} [/tex]
Where:
h: is Planck's constant = 6.62x10⁻³⁴ J.s
c: is the speed of light = 3.00x10⁸ m/s
λ: is the wavelength = 675 nm
Hence, the energy is:
[tex] E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} = \frac{6.62 \ccdot 10^{-34} J.s*3.00 \cdot 10^{8} m/s}{675 \cdot 10^{-9} m} = 2.94 \cdot 10^{-19} J [/tex]
Therefore, the energy of a photon is 2.94x10⁻¹⁹ J.

A 0.0780 kg lemming runs off a
5.36 m high cliff at 4.84 m/s. What
is its kinetic energy (KE) when it
is 2.00 m above the ground?
Answer:
0.913
Explanation:
k.e=1/2mv square
k.e=1/2×0.078g×23.4256m/s square
k.e=0.913J
The kinetic energy when the lemming is 2.00 m above the ground is approximately 2.56 J (Joules).
To calculate the kinetic energy (KE) of the lemming when it is 2.00 m above the ground, we need to consider the change in its potential energy (PE) as it falls.
The potential energy at a height h is given by:
PE = m g h
Where:
m is the mass of the lemming (0.0780 kg)
g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²)
h is the height above the ground
Given:
Height of the cliff (h) = 5.36 m
Velocity of the lemming (v) = 4.84 m/s
Height above the ground (h') = 2.00 m
The lemming will lose potential energy as it falls from the cliff, which is converted into kinetic energy. Therefore, the kinetic energy when it is 2.00 m above the ground is equal to the difference between its total initial kinetic energy and the potential energy at that height.
Initial potential energy at the top of the cliff:
PE_initial = m g h
Potential energy when it is 2.00 m above the ground:
PE_final = m * g * h'
The change in potential energy is given by:
ΔPE = PE_final - PE_initial
The kinetic energy (KE) when it is 2.00 m above the ground:
KE = ΔPE = -ΔPE (due to energy conservation)
Let's calculate the potential energy at the top of the cliff and when it is 2.00 m above the ground:
PE_initial = m ×g × h
= 0.0780 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 5.36 m
PE_initial ≈ 4.09 J
PE_final = m ×g × h'
= 0.0780 kg ×9.8 m/s² ×2.00 m
PE_final ≈ 1.53 J
The change in potential energy (ΔPE) is:
ΔPE = PE_final - PE_initial = 1.53 J - 4.09 J
ΔPE ≈ -2.56 J
Since the change in potential energy is equal to the kinetic energy, the kinetic energy when the lemming is 2.00 m above the ground is approximately 2.56 J (Joules).

A police car in hot pursuit goes speeding past you. While the siren is approaching, the frequency of the sound you hear is 5500 Hz. When the siren is receding away from you, the frequency of the sound is 4500 Hz. Use the Doppler formula to determine the velocity of the police car. Use vsound=330 m/s.
What is the velocity v of the police car ?
When a police car in hot pursuit goes speeding past you, the velocity v of the police car is 33 m/s.
What is the Doppler formula?The formula is used when there exists a Doppler shift. The Doppler shift is due to the relative motion of sound waves between the source and observer.
The frequency increase by the Doppler effect is represented by the formula
f' = [tex]\dfrac{v-v_{o} }{v-v_{s} }[/tex]× f
Given the frequency of source f' is 5500 Hz . Velocity of the observer v₀ is 0.
Substituting the value into the equation will give us the velocity of the police car.
[tex]5500 = \dfrac{330}{330-v} \times f[/tex]...........(1)
When the car is receding, the frequency of the receiving signal f = 4500 Hz.

Increasing the surfactant concentration above the critical micellar concentration
will result in: Select one:
1.An increase in surface tension
2. A decrease in surface tension
3. No change in surface tension
4.None of the above
Answer:
Explanation:no change in surface tension
An increase in the surfactant concentration above the critical micellar concentration will result in no change in surface tension.
In water-gas interface, surfactant reduces the surface tension of water by adsorbing at the liquid–gas interface.
Also, in oil-water interface, surfactant reduces the interfacial tension between oil and water by adsorbing at the oil-water interface.
The concentration of the surfactant can increase to a level called critical micellar concentration, which is an important characteristic of a surfactant.
As the concentration of the surfactant increases before critical micellar concentration, the surface tension changes strongly with an increase in the concentration of the surfactant. After reaching the critical micellar concentration, any further increase in the concentration will result in no change of the surface tension, that is the surface tension will be constant.Thus, increasing the surfactant concentration above the critical micellar concentration will result in no change in surface tension.

Answer:
Hmmm...
This is a bit tricky
Ok...
Negative Velocity means you're Moving in the Opposite direction....
Negative Acceleration (deceleration) means you're slowing down.
Deceleration would mean slowing down if you were Moving with a Positive velocity.
But In this case...
You're Moving with negative velocity and Negative acceleration...
This simply means that the acceleration and velocity vector are in the same direction....
Its means that...

Answer:
d. In dc steady state conditions, the voltages across the capacitors are constant and the currents through the capacitance are zero. The current through the inductors are constant and the voltage across the inductances are zero.
Explanation:
The current through a capacitor is given by i = CdV/dt where C = capacitance of capacitor and V = voltage across capacitor. At steady state dV/dt = 0 and V = constant. So, i = CdV/dt = C × 0 = 0.
So, in dc steady state, the voltage across a capacitor is constant and the current zero.
The voltage across an inductor is given by V = Ldi/dt where L = inductance of inductor and i = current through inductor. At steady state di/dt = 0 and V = constant. So, V = Ldi/dt = L × 0 = 0.
So, in dc steady state, the voltage across an inductor is zero and the current constant.
So, In dc steady state conditions, the voltages across the capacitors are constant and the currents through the capacitance are zero. The current through the inductors are constant and the voltage across the inductances are zero.
The answer is d.

So, package will take 5.21 s to reach the ground
A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery of electric potential difference V. If the plate separation is decreased, do the following quantities increase, decrease, or remain the same: (a) the capacitor’s capacitance, (b) the potential difference across the capacitor, (c) the charge on the capacitor, (d) the energy stored by the capacitor, (e) the magnitude of the electric field between the plates, and (f ) the energy density of that electric field?
Answer:
a) increases.
b) remains the same.
c) increases.
d) increases.
e) increases.
f) increases.
Explanation:
a)
Since the capacitance of a parallel-plate depends only on geometric constants and the dielectric between the plates, we can use the following expression to asess the value of the capacitance:[tex]C = \epsilon_{0}*\frac{A}{d} (1)[/tex]
where ε₀ = permitivitty of free space
A = area of one of the plates
d= plate separation
As we can see, if the plate separation is decreased, the value of the capacitance must increase.b)
Per definition the capacitance explains the relationship between the charge on one of the conductors, and the potential difference between them, as follows:[tex]C = \frac{Q}{V} (2)[/tex]
Assuming that the capacitor remains connected to the battery when the plate separation is decreased, since the voltage can't change (as it must hold the same voltage than previously since it's directly connected to the battery) the potential difference between plates must remain the same.c)
From B, we know that V in (2) must remain constant. Since we know from (1) that C must increase, this means from (2) that Q must increase too.d)
The energy stored in the electric field between the plates can be expressed as follows in terms of the capacitance C and the potential difference V:[tex]U = \frac{1}{2}* C*V^{2} (3)[/tex]
From (1) in a) and from b) we know that the capacitance C must increase whilst V must remain the same, so U in (3) must increase also.e)
In the capacitor the magnitude of the Electric field between the plates is constant, and is related to the potential difference between them by the following linear relationship:[tex]V = E*d (4)[/tex]
Since we know that V must remain the same, if the distance d decreases, the electris field E must increase in the same ratio in order to keep the equation balanced.f)
The energy density of the electric field is defined as the energy stored between plates by unit volume, as follows:[tex]u = \frac{U}{v} = \frac{\frac{1}{2}* C*V^{2}}{A*d} =\frac{1}{2}* \epsilon_{0}*\frac{A*V^{2} }{A*d*d} = \frac{1}{2} *\epsilon_{0}*E^{2} (5)[/tex]
Since it's proportional to the square of the electric field, and we know from e) that the magnitude of the electric field must increase, u must increase too.
